A Tale as Old as Time
'And at last I see the light
And it's like the fog has lifted
And at last I see the light
And it's like the sky is new
And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once everything looks different
Now that I see you.'
These are the lines of the song 'I see the light' from the Disney movie 'Tangled'. Today I was listening to songs from Disney movies and Barbie movies and since then I haven't returned to reality. When I was in lower classes these Barbie movies used to be such a fascination! I never missed any of them whenever they came up on the television. And today while listening to those songs all those fairy tales flashed back. So unreal, impractical, yet so enchanting and charming! Once again I was in that dreamland, someplace that I used to visit so often a few years back. Those songs made me sway and dance and twirl, thinking that I was not in my room but in a land with a blue open sky, trees with flowers of all possible colours, the music playing in the background, my feet covered in ballerinas, and no one around. Since then I have been lost in that dreamland, unable to return to this cruel world.
Sometimes even such unrealistic fairy tales and Disney movies make me feel so positive and lively; like a whiplash to my imaginations!
'Tale as old as time, true as it can be.....'
