Today's Horoscope
All signs:
The stars want to remind you that fairytales aren't just for children. When we get older, we are told to put away childish things. We learn some hard lessons, and we are reminded that happy endings aren't guaranteed and that life doesn't always work out the way we want.
But sometimes it does. That's why fairytales are there, to remind us. That's why all our movies and books and songs aren't about misery and settling and broken hearts. We might even feel foolish when something is lighthearted and simple and sweet, because we're told those things are for children, lies to help them sleep at night.
They aren't lies, and they aren't any lesser than the dark and brutal truths we think we have to face because it proves we're adults. There is room for wonder and kindness, magic and mayhem, princesses and heroes. That's why so many people think of young adult novels and Disney cartoons as guilty pleasures, but love them just the same.
The stars know we need our fairytales, no matter how old we get. The stars know that they can still come true.
