Did Cinderella wonder whether her prince would have cared for her had he first seen her in her everyday clothes? Did she believe the ladies of the palace were truly her friends or did she suspect they were just friendly because she was the princess and wore beautiful gowns? Did she fear that life could again change? Everything could disappear as it had done when the clock struck twelve? Did Cinderella wonder whether her good fortune was real or the trick of a magic wand? It’s a sad thing to lose belief.Gita V. Reddy

I am sure Cinderella was really smart. Even if the fairy had not appeared, she would have found some way out of their clutches. She would have had to; it’s called survival.Gita V. Reddy

Did anyone care for poor Cinderella until her fairy godmother took her in hand? Did anyone look beyond the ragged clothes and sooty face? Did anyone see the unshed tears and the poor, tired face? Obviously not. Appearances matter.Gita V. Reddy
