Looking at it through the eyes of reason, the prince character from “The Sleeping Beauty” isn’t right. He should be looked at, as there is no “reason” for his success. He doesn’t pass any trial, he isn’t the best, he isn’t more brave, or stronger, or bolder than anyone before him.

If he doesn’t do and doesn’t have anything special what are we teaching to our children? There should be something more “educative”, with a prince without virtues our fairy tale isn’t transferring any “moral value”.
But who are we kidding?!


What happens in reality?
Oh no, how frustrating reality is! It doesn’t give two hoots about how things should be and what is right and what isn’t. It doesn’t follow any schemes, it improvises, and when you think you have all the answers it changes the questions. And it’s pointless to complain “things don’t pan out as they should and there’s no justice in this world”, it just does as it pleases.

“Reasoning”, there should be something to give motivation, to give a point to what happens, to justify it, “reasoning” what happens “must” be the effect to a cause.
And one must understand, dig into the past, find causes, culprits and faults, and assemble the pieces together. If memory isn’t enough there must be something else, past lives and debts, or occult designs of some sort.


It’s a chase without end behind feelings of guilt and fears that never seem to match.


If “The Sleeping Beauty” were a fable, the reason why the prince is triumphant and the others fail would be clear as day.


What happens instead is the prince kissing and marrying the beauty simply because he’s in the right place at the right time.

Now, one hundred years had passed since the day when the prince attempted the task. When he approached the thorned vines all he found was beautiful flowers that moved as he passed through, closing behind him and letting him through unharmed.
Why? Because “The Sleeping Beauty” is a fairy tale, and fairy tales break all schemes.
There is no cause and effect chain!
