Most people believe they are the architects of their own happiness. The truth is, they are not; they are, more than they realize, the pre-shaped results of their childhood. Those who want to understand themselves must remember, become aware, and work through the past as best as they can; those who wish to understand another should likewise allow themselves to be told how their childhood is painted in that person's eyes and how it continues to live on within them. Fairy tales like "Snow White," "The Two Brothers," and "The Frog Prince" depict extremely complex developmental processes on the journey to becoming a man or a woman. Their protagonists must embark on a long journey to ultimately find their happiness and "awaken to life.".
