So I read a story on internet and it got me depressed.. 'Cause its putting what I wanted to erase from my life into another story. Most of all, at the end of the story, the blogger mentionned that people who understood it are mostly married or above 35 years old.. how sad is that. So here's the story: Once upon a time, a princess named Diana was in love with a prince. Their wedding day finally arrived and the princess was dressed in her prettiest gown. In order to get to the prince's castle, she needed to cross a river. Diana didn't want to ruin her gown so she sat there hoping for her prince to come. Hours passed by and a donkey came by. He was the uggliest thing the princess has ever seen.
The donkey said :" hello there my lady, I can help you cross this river, just hop on my back".
To which Diana replied, no thank you. You are not tall enough and I don't want to wet my gown.
Donkey:" why don't you trust me? i promise i won't ruin your gown"
Diana refused. So the two of them just sat there. The donkey was waiting for the princess to change her mind and the princess was waiting for her prince to arrive.
The sky turned dark and the prince still hasn't come.
So the donkey said:" what if he never comes? Let me get you to the other side, I promise not to ruin your gown. But if I get you there and your gown is still as pretty, you have to take me home". Diana was tired of waiting so she agreed.
Before she hops on, the donkey told her that he can only support that much weight so if she drops tears, he won't be able to support the heaviness. The princess said that if he ruins her gown, she will leave him.
The donkey walked slowly but surely and her gown didnt touch the water. They talked a lot and the princess just knew that she's the fifteenth girl he takes on his back to cross the river. Except the first one, the rest all had their gowns ruined.
He walked safely and Diana stopped worrying about her gown.
Donkey:" are you happy right now?"
Diana:" Yes I am"
Donkey:" Is it because of your gown or me?"
Diana hesitated. The donkey said that either way, he just wants to keep her on his back. Diana fell asleep and dreamed about donkey transforming into a prince after she kissed him. When woke up, she kissed the donkey on his cheek but nothing happened. Donkey is donkey and prince is prince. Her prince is the one waiting for her on the other side of the river, and not this donkey.
She was lost in her mind and got overwhelmed. So much that a tear dropped out of her eye. The donkey suddenly crashed down and dropped her in the water. They didn't say anything and Diana walked the rest of the way by herself. The donkey didn't even try to make her stay and walked back, to wait for the next princess that won't cry on his back and take him home.
The princess arrived at the castle but the prince wasn't there. She sat on the ground, she was cold and sick. A little rabbit passed by and the princess took it into her arms and said:" all i need now is a hug to warm me up". She saw the donkey on the other side and cried.

There are two phrases to complete this story :
- On your first true love, you loved this person. If they deceived you, you will only love yourself when you get into another relationship
- The word love as a noun does not go with an 's'. The word lover, does.
So did you understand the meaning of the story? Did you figure out what donkey, princess, prince and rabbit represent? And the symbolism behind every element?
