It's the same reason that as kids, we want our parents to tell us stories. The same reason we love Disney movies about princes and princesses, wealthy felines, or a boy who never grew up. We want a place that we can escape to, a place where we can put the real world on hold and transport ourselves to a place that we want to be real. Don't we all wish we could close our eyes and wake up in Hogwarts?? I know I do.
I came upon a sign today that had a quote by Einstein painted on it and it really spoke to me. Growing up, I always was deep in thought. I pondered why the clouds moved and why people acted the way they do. I still ponder the same things, only a little deeper. But because of this, I loved fairy tales. I loved hearing about these new elements that were born by pure creativity. These stories sparked my creativity at a young age and as I grew up, authors such as J.K. Rowling and Suzanne Collins stay with me today.

What's your favorite fairy tale and why? I have too many to count. I'm currently reading Greek Myths and can't pull myself away. It's nice to escape. Especially when your wallet doesn't take a hit ;).
