"And I know you love Shrek,
Cause we've watched it twelve times.
But, maybe you're hoping for a fairy-tale too."
Along with these lyrics from Ed Sheeran there is an internet post that I have seen a lot, about the movie Shrek it says:
"You know why Shrek is the best Fairytale? Cause in some fairytales the princes and the princess are perfect but in Shrek it teaches us that imperfect people can still have their own happy endings."
It's true, anyone can have a happy ending, and Shrek does teach us that, but I also feel like Shrek teaches us somethings a little more important than just that.
Maybe the Princess doesn't always need the Prince, maybe the both of them are just too far away from reality to realize anything about the real world.
It's the same for high school, when the popular girl dates the popular boy it's usually not the most sentimental relationship.
It's not always the case, but it happens...
Princess Fiona thought she would be able to run way with Prince Charming and that whatever charade he tried to pull off, by rescuing her from the tower and slaving the dragon, and that some how this could be considered "True Love," But it wouldn't be. Fiona asked for it, and she got true love. Just not in the way she expected to get it...
Instead of a Prince with a huge castle and a dozen white horses, she got Shrek who lived in a swap and had a friend donkey.
So Diamonds I didn't really have an idea in mind when I wrote this blog, but I think the point is that you will find some one in your life who wants you for you.
Shrek wouldn't have wanted to change Fiona one bit, he loved her when she was a person, and he loved her when she was an ogre too.
Obviously, all of you Diamonds are princesses, but maybe you need something a little more real than a prince.

Maybe you, like every little girl, has had a dream of marrying a prince, or a rich boy, but the reality is you may marry a boy who came from a more difficult back round than you, he may even be a little less financially stable than you will be.
What really matters is that you love him, and that every night when you take your make up off and turn into a monster, he will still think you are so beautiful, and he will always see you as a princess.
So Diamonds, hope for a fairy tale, because you'll find one, you may even be living one right now.
