I grew up thinking, at least up until the age of 4, that everyone at some point of their lifes would become a prince or a princess. It was all very simple, life was endlessly long so there would certainly be time for all of us. And like in all games you take turns playing the most desiered role. I remember having an argument with an older friend about this, the same boring friend that tried to convince me that "one thousand" was actually more than "one hundered".
I remember this so clearly, I think it was probably during this argument I realized that maybe the world was not so fair after all.
The closest I ever got to princess was a Lambada (a very childish and far apart one, not at all like the kids in the video) during my dancing lesson in fourth grade with a boy who would later become the boyfriend of one of the princesses in Sweden.
I'm pretty ok with the fact that I will never become a princess nowadays, in the same way I'm ok with not being a priest or a nanny, two other childhood dreams of mine. Life oh Life.
