My wife (Hay J) bought a Cinderella DVD at a COSTCO store recently. It is a heartwarming fairy tale familiar to us since our childhood of a household drudge to become the queen of a kingdom. She likes this particular version being played by real people rather than a graphic animation.
This movie was beautiful indeed. The dance scene of Cinderella and the prince in the ballroom of the palace was to me a center piece of the movie so expensive and adorable that we have watched a couple of times already and probably we will more in coming days. Cinderella had time only till midnight. That was the time she received from the fairy god mother which was so real to me. We all have a limited time in this world.
As the midnight clock ticks, the beautiful carriage crumbles back to an old pumpkin; horses, rider, and guards back to mice, duck, and lizards again. Cinderella changed back to a poor ragged girl. But Cinderella was happy to have had such a real dream though short.
We are now at the sunset of our lives. We still have our ballroom dance going on in our memory live and unforgettable. We feel our lives short and void as Cinderella might have felt but we are happy for our lives granted as her ballroom dance. At the year end, you have a great time. Merry Christmas and Happy New year. -Ke & Hay J. (December 23, 2015, KYP)
