Prince Charming or A Cruel Man

Prince Charming is a character childhood movies put in to rescue the Princess. His physical attraction is built, athletic, manly face, sparkly smile and the eyes to make you melt.

                                                             Someone like him:
                                                     
When you grow up and have this fantasy of a Fairy Tale Prince Charming or Perfect Romantic Comedy Leading Man, you're shaken up at the idea neither of them exist. At least not in the format every little girl thinks of; these men in reality look perfect because of how they make the princess feel. How he makes her a better human being, how he challenges her, or just looks at her in all the imperfections. He doesn't have to slay, fight, or protect every threat. The Princess can defend herself too. Prince Charming needs to not be afraid of the Princess in her perfect or imperfect form, slaying one million dragons with one look that says "She's mine. There is no one better for me."

Prince Charming can have quite a few impostures one for example A Cruel Man. This man has all the aspects of Prince Charming, he fills you with promises, sweet notes, and loving intentions. Besides the fact that A Cruel Man does not have a white horse, shiny armor or roses; he does posess integrity, passion, and self worth. To be labeled as cruel one may think evil vilian but it's quite the opposite, this man is cruel because he is the real version of everything you never thought existed. 
A Cruel Man is reality and Prince Charming is an image. 

A man is just a man, not one man is perfect, cruel, or charming that's the beauty in all of them. A man has deep flaws, heartbreaks, and cherishingly twisted souls. Each man sees this image of perfection they must somehow live up too, we tend to envision them as our favorite leading movie men. The hype alone is unfair, comments like "God! I would love to have Ryan Gossling as my boyfriend." That must sting a little. Bob Marley. He pin points exactly what a man actually can give.  

"He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give."

A Cruel Man or Prince Charming? 
How about both.

Wanted: Hope and Happiness

   
   There seems to be a pattern lately with life. Nothing is going according to plan. Everything we thought would stay good or bring light to our lives has brought a bit of a dark cloud. And it's at this time where things just suck, plain and simple. Sweet pleasures in life don't bring as much happiness as we thought; for instance a doughnut, Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby, or a teenager transforming into a power ranger. The magic of life is fading as we go forward.  
Maybe not for the doughnut. 

Life is not predictable. A saying that has been said over and over but there are no harsh truths, no quick fixes, and no way out of living one. This life we have is a constant sucky, tragic, erotic, sad, pleasant, mistakable, beautiful adventure. Most of my friends, we are 20 somethings trying to patch together what answers we don't have about our future. When the scary part is... This is OUR future. OUR life. We have spent so much time fumbling through school and work, to actually sit back and look at what life you want or what life you deserve it's fucking scary. The possibilities are endless yet extremely limited and the next move is entirely your own. 

Knowing you have this super power (your future) and you ask the daring question: What am I going to do with it? 
-Read more 
-Make better plans with people 
- Spend all day on FB, Instagram, or Twitter
-Ponder thoughts
-Write more
*You know be productive and shit.* 

When finding these answers what gets lost in the transition is Hope and Happiness. We forget (at times) what our contribution to the world can be. Which is to make the world better by being happy hopeful people, seeing these dark and wasted times as a reminder of "It's never the end, only the beginning."
