塔の上のラプンツェル is my お気に入り ディズニー movie for many reasons besides the wonderful storyline and beautiful imagery. I really relate to Rapunzel in so many ways. I try to be optimistic and see the beauty in the small things in life. I try to stay hopeful and occupy my time with many hobbies. I have so many interests and 愛 learning about them and learning about the world and other cultures. We also share physical features, brown hair and green eyes, and prefer walking outside barefoot. I also have some German heritage, so I relate to her that way as well.

My mother also acts a lot like Mother Gothel. She tells me that I am too insecure, I would never survive in the world on my own, I am too kind and forgiving that the world will destroy me. I am too chubby, too quiet, and too naive for anyone to ever want to date, love, または marry me. She says how she is so much prettier than me and that I am too messy and dress too casually to stand out and have a relationship. My mother says that she knows what is best for me.

This is so similar to what Mother Gothel says to Rapunzel “Sloppy, underdressed,” “Gullible, naïve,” “I see a strong, confident beautiful young lady. Oh look, you’re here, too.” I felt an instant connection to Rapunzel the first time I saw Tangled. My mother loves me, though, and she does so much for me. I have honestly started to feel that I won't be able to find 愛 または live on my own. I know that Rapunzel did leave, so there is still hope for me, but I feel dependent on my mother and want to please her.

I even chose a college major to please her, but it wasn't my dream, and I finally started breaking free like Rapunzel did when she went to chase after her dream of seeing the lanterns and when I switched my major out of healthcare to become an elementary school teacher. I hope one 日 I can really leave "my tower," find my prince, and have my happily ever after like Rapunzel did. For now I am left, “wondering when will my life begin?”

In the meantime, Rapunzel and 塔の上のラプンツェル has 与えられた me hope and a character that inspires me and I can relate to.

Thank あなた for being so welcoming and giving me an outlet to feel comfortable enough to share things that are very personal to me.

I hope あなた have a great rest of the week.
