Fairy tale plots are usually quite optimistic. In any case, most of them end with the victory of good over evil. Well, since we, as a rule, identify ourselves with a positive hero (in our own understanding, of course!), Then the story ends in our favor.
“Make a fairy tale come true” was the motto of several generations. Precisely because a fairy tale is always wonderful, kind, when everything is free to everyone.
But….
“But he chose a fairy tale with a sad denouement
And turned ghostly evil into reality, Now I would make this reality back to a fairy tale, Yes, there are too many things to do and too little energy"
(Shcherbakov)
We all listen to fairy tales in childhood. And we don't just listen - we live by them. We imagine ourselves as an enchanted princess, Cinderella, Thumbelina, Little Robber … or Ivanushka, Emelya, Ilya Muromets, Aladdin. We identify with our beloved hero, assimilate his values, the behavioral scenario at the subcortex level, fill with his strength … and his weaknesses, limitations.
As a result, we reverse what psychology calls a "life scenario." We behave just like our beloved hero and expect the same result as him. For example, like Cinderella, you are hardworking, clean, kind and open. You humbly endure the bullying, ridicule and arrogance of the "evil stepmother and seter" (Their role can be the boss and colleagues, neighbors in the apartment and country house, the saleswoman in the store and the doctor in the clinic). As a reward for your torment, you are waiting for the Good Fairy, who will one day give you a pass to a happy life and help you meet her Prince. Time passes, but neither the Fairy nor the Prince is visible on the horizon. Why?? You try so hard, but if someone suddenly appears, looking like a good fairy, very soon it turns out to be another evil stepmother.
Gerda again and again rescues the unfortunate Kai, kidnapped by the Snow Queen, but he either runs away from her, or does not want to escape at all.
The beauty still does not lose hope of disenchanting the Beast, but she does not find anything but an animal appearance in her chosen one.
Emelya catches everything and catches magic pikes, looking for free earnings, but as a result he is in debt like in silks, pikes are all more treacherous than the devil himself.
And nevertheless - each of these unlucky characters continues to act out their scenario. Steps on the same rake and at the same time does not see them point-blank. Barely moving away from the next blow, he again gets down to business with perseverance worthy of a better application.
What does it look like? To wander through the maze. Wherever you go - now a dead end, now a trap, now a Minotaur. The force of habit makes you wander the same route over and over again, because the familiar road still seems safer than the unknown. After all, you are convinced that you are doing everything right and by all means should receive your prize in the end. It was the other people around you who were wrong last time. And now you will definitely be lucky and everything will be like in a fairy tale. In your favorite fairy tale!
To get out of the maze you need a clue. To understand where you turn in the wrong place, you need to look at the labyrinth from a bird's eye view. Then everything will become obvious - where are the traps, and where is the way out.
But what about the prize? The fact of the matter is that he usually finds himself BEYOND the maze. The main prize you can get is freedom. There are a lot of fairy-tale plots, it's silly to get hung up on any one. Play different characters depending on the situation.
Better yet, write your own fairy tale about the life you want. After all, any fairy tale was repeatedly retold, rewritten by different authors, and each of them brought something of their own into the storyline and into the character of the characters.
Why don't you write your own version too? This is what we will do in our fabulous marathon. Join us!

On The Same Rake (part 1)
"The priest had a dog - he loved her, she ate a piece of meat - he killed her, buried it in the ground and wrote the inscription …" for the first time, that is with enviable persistence we step on the same rake … Why does it happen that a person makes the same mistakes over and over again?
Man, Woman, Rake

On The Same Rake: Longing For The Former
Now, it seems that you finally got rid of him. Or from her. Behind were scandals, late return home of the second half without warning and without intelligible explanations, numerous attempts (fruitless) to clarify and improve relations. It would seem that you need to rejoice, start life from scratch, communicate, meet new people, or, conversely, take time for yourself, if your inner motives require it … And indeed, for a while, everything really goes like this.
The Enchanted Prince Or Bluebeard? (Why Doesn't The Beast Disenchant? - Part 5)
Now we come to the denouement of our story - to the answer to the question: why, in some cases, the Monster is disenchanted, and in others it is not. Let's take a look at two options for plot development. Two fairy tales: the first - "
ENCHANTED WORLD OF CONSCIOUSNESS
Consciousness is a great phenomenon. N. Humphrey, professor of psychology at Oxford and Cambridge, in his book "Consciousness: the pollen of the soul", even directly states that consciousness is " a magic show that you put on stage in your head ».
