I recently read a book about a girl who fell in love with a prince in a book and somehow, he came to life. And can you guess how they ended up? He got out of the book and they lived happily ever after. Obviously.
Isn't that what we all dream for? We want out prince to be thrust upon us, to be presented with the opportunity of true love. But can we be so lucky?
What percentage of real life people are going to meet their prince? Are going to stumble across some perfect being who sweeps them off their feet or saves them from peril? I'm only assuming it's a small one.
I live in the type of place where the closest to a prince you can get is a farmer who is well off and owns a large, John Greene tractor. Your carriage is most likely a Ford truck (Chevy for the losers) and your ball gown is a battered pair of cut-offs. So, for someone like me, to imagine a majestic prince swooping in to love me, would be one of the most absurd ideas.
For others, their prince would be a little easier. People who live right next door to a famous celebrity. People who live in England and are the most gorgeous people ever (in case you couldn't tell, I was referencing a real prince). It could happen for them, and I guess it could happen for me too, but I would really have to try.
But I guess that's the point of what I'm saying here. Most of the princesses you've heard or read about have simply sat around, waiting for their prince to come for them, and by some random stroke of luck, he did. But that doesn't always happen in real life. You have to work hard for something. If you want your prince, you have to go out there and find him. If you think you have found him, you have to try to get him. Staring from afar will get you no happily ever after. If you have him, you have to keep working to hold on to him.
Don't lose hope in your dreams. You can achieve them, and if it's not exactly as you wished, you will still have some sort of amazing thing in your midst. And if you ever lose motivation, remember that there are people out there who are going to get to date or marry those really hot people.

You could be one of them.
I probably won't, though. 'Cause, I mean, you know.
