Realistic fairy tales (part five)

 

Thumbelina

This is a story by Hans Christian Andersen, who created this character based on Tom Thumb. "Thumbelina" is a story that begins when a woman finds a baby girl born from a plant. Later at night, a wicked toad carries off the baby. Thumbelina ends up fleeing, then making friends with mice, birds, fish and a butterfly, who help her on a journey. Its a happy ending. So could you relate to Thumbelina? She is someone who feels small and insignificant. She isn't aware of her abilities although could find it. She feels in tune with nature and the hidden side of things that most people don't see. She could be shy and have some anxiety about getting lost and feeling lost.

Puss in Boots


Now do you relate to "Puss in Boots"? This is a very old story written over the centuries by different authors. It goes back to the Middle Ages. If you can identify with Puss in Boots, and aware of the story, you'll know that this is a character who is most clever and helpful. Puss in Boots helps his owner to progress and find happiness, a good reputation, stability and love. Unlike most cats, Puss in Boots have many humanlike attributes and also supernatural abilities. So if you can relate, Puss in Boots is very clever, intelligent, makes plans, careful, helpful, wise and insightful. Puss in Boots seems like someone else's guardian angel, spirit guide and mentor. A friend, reliable and like a cat in boots, quirky too! Eccentric, regarded as unusual and odd, but deep down, a remarkable cat.
