Over the last several decades the Disney Princesses have been teaching us valuable life lessons. Here’s just 13 of them…

1. It’s OK to want more.

“I want adventure in the great wide somewhere. I want it more than I can tell.  And for once it might be grand, to have someone understand. I want so much more than they’ve got planned.”

 

2. Sometimes we’re ALL a little awkward.

“Wait, whaaat?”

 

3.Never stop believing.

“Have faith in your dreams and someday, your rainbow will come smiling through. No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true.”

 

4. You are more than what people think.

“How dare you? All of you! Standing around deciding my future? I am not a prize to be won!”

 

5. Good things come to those who wait.

“That’s when my life begins!”

 

6. Remember to smile.

“There’s no use in grumbling. When the raindrops come tumbling. Remember, you’re the one who can fill the world with sunshine.”

 

7. Don’t be afraid to fight for what’s important.

“I don’t know what I can do, still I know I’ve got to try.”

 

8. It’s ok to wish for things that seem out of your reach.

“Wish I could be, part of that world…”

 

9. Anyone can be a HERO!

“Look at me, I may never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter. Can it be, I’m not meant to play this part?”

 

10. Let it go.

“The past is in the past. Let it go. Let it go.”

 

11. With hard work, your dreams can come true.

“Fairy tales can come true. You gotta make ‘em happen, it all depends on you.”

 

12. We decide our own fate.

“Some say fate is beyond our command, but I know better. Our destiny is within us. You just have to be brave enough to see it.”

 

13. Dream BIG.

“But they say if you dream a thing more than once, it’s sure to come true.”
