About This Quote
The princess was in a dream after she fell in a nightmare. She was in a place where she didn’t know what was real and what was fantasy. She looked in the mirror and saw an old woman with wrinkles and gray hair. She didn’t recognize herself, so she decided to go back to the real world.
In the real world, she wasn’t old, but she didn’t look like the beautiful young woman she used to be either. When people feel like they are no longer beautiful or popular or young, they can feel like they are supposed to stay in misery for the rest of their lives because it is who they are. However, when people get back up and try again, they can see that beauty is not something that you ever completely lose.
