Denmark is my favorite Nordic countries. The country gives the world a beautiful fantasy with fairy tales and stimulates our imagination with creative Lego blocks. Everyone should have read Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales in their childhood. Among the well-known Danish fairy tales, I am most impressed by "The Mermaid". The statue of the heroine "The Mermaid" is a must-visit attraction for every tourist. Although Andersen let the story end in tragedy and the heroine "Mermaid" is still waiting for the prince, the Crown Prince of Denmark is personally performing a fairy tale with a happy ending and showing the world that the Danes make the most romantic fairy tales realized in the world.
The success of a transnational relationship
depends on true love
Danish Crown Prince Frederik and Princess Mary met during the 2000 Sydney Olympics, and then they began a long-distance relationship. A romance on a 1600 KM distance based on letters and very rare visits is challenging, even if he is a crown prince, he also experienced the same difficulties as ordinary people's long-distance relationships. Finally, in 2004, he married the beauty.
True love is hard to come by,
the prince's eyes were full of tears at the wedding.
Since the 2000 Sydney Olympics, Prince Frederick (32 years old) and Princess Mary (28 years old) after nearly 4 years of hard work, they finally succeeded. On the wedding day, when the bride princess Mary walked slowly to the auditorium, the waiting prince's eyes turned red. I have seen many royal wedding broadcasts However, it is the first time I saw the bridegroom was not full of joy, but tears of joy, which witnessed the completion of a long-distance exotic love is very difficult, through various tests and overcoming difficulties, the love can be cultivated into a positive fruit, and the prince weeps with joy. I have to admire that Prince Frederick is the most romantic prince in the world.
Prince Frederick perfectly interprets
the hero of the fairy tale
At the wedding reception, the prince made the following emotional speech to his father-in-law:
I love her and I will protect her with all my heart.
I will do my best to make her feel confident and at home in her new country.
I have attended many wedding banquets in Taiwan and watched many royal wedding broadcasts, but it was the first time that I saw the groom thank his father-in-law for his trust and promise to protect the bride who married from Australia to Denmark. This also allowed me to see that the crown prince educated and cultivated by the Danish royal family is not only a handsome guy, but also a man very considerate of others. He know that the bride is married to Denmark, all kinds of challenges and difficulties are waiting for her. He must protect her wholeheartedly and help her adjust to her new country.
The prince's true confession
made the bride cry at the wedding banquet
What impressed me even more is the prince's sincere speech to the bride. I hereby proivde the English version of his Danish speech as follows:
In the year 2000 in Sydney, 5 Olympic rings were united for the 25th time. Australia at that time was an unknown and undiscovered continent for me – symbolised aptly by the fifth and lowest Olympic ring. I found myself in an unknown country amongst happy, festive foreigners. My only luggage at that time was my high expectations of my visit, and a certain degree of confidence.
I had only been in Australia two days before our fates were sealed, even though neither of us was aware of it. But your radiance shone clearly for me from our very first meeting. Since then I have been blinded and totally dependent on it.
Until that moment in my life, I had been striving to achieve greater independence, without limiting any of my freedom. My opportunities were plentiful, and my world was often lonely.
But both were continually strengthened in time and in space because my curiosity and positive faith in the definitive, the ultimate, drove me onwards.
Then you walked into my world, and already much has happened. Now, there are two worlds – possibly even more - which from now on we will explore together, side by side. In light and darkness, in summer, autumn, winter and spring – always.
The joy and strength you give me is like the sun in the daytime which, with its radiance, melts all doubts and darkness on earth. And like the moon at night, you shine with a watchful and delicate beam of gentleness, which extinguishes the mischief and deceit used by the symbols of darkness.
I often like to compare the dawn’s light on a new day with the rebirth of the untouched, the inexperienced, and the innocent. A little naive perhaps - but nevertheless it is wonderful to pretend that everything begins anew. A new world is born again with the light of a new day.
This moment is “us” - the two of us – newly together, young together, innocent together, in love together – simply “together”.
You give me security, joy and happiness.
I am almost bubbling over with curiosity as to what the near and distant future has in store for us - and it is you who must answer.
But I will try to control myself, for two questions have already been answered with a simple “Yes” from us both. It is an answer which will hold good for us always. And if we need light in our search for answers, all we need to do is to lift our eyes and look towards heaven. There lies eternity, which can always show us the way back to the path which sometimes we lose.
I love you Mary. Come, let us go! Come, let us see!
Throughout a thousand worlds, weightless love awaits.
The prince spoke emotionally and counted the feelings of the two after they met. Hearing this, the bride, Princess Mary, couldn't help but redden her eyes.
His Royal Highness Crown Prince Frederick stated that before he met Mary, in the emotional world, even though surrounded by many opportunities, the prince's world is often lonely. From his confession, we can see that even if you are a prince, in the emotional world, it is still possible to endure loneliness, obstacles and tests like ordinary people. However, Prince Frederick overcame all odds to achieve a live-action version of a beautiful fairy tale.
The following is Prince Frederick's speech at the wedding reception (English & Danish)
Live-action fairy tales are more moving than creative fairy tales
Who says there are no fairy tales in the real world?
Since got married in 2004, this fairy couple has gone through 18 years of trials and has 4 children. When they appear in public, their 'body language' always make people see them support each other in their marriage. The marriage of the Danish prince is a fairy tale of invincible true love, which proves that the fairy tales in the real world are more touching than those created through the ages. Who says there are no fairy tales in the real world?
People laugh at the fact that there are no fairy tales in the world,
but the prince of Denmark performs it for you
When we were young, everyone loved to read fairy tales and longed for good things, but as we got older, we gradually lost our innocence, laughing at fairy tales as unreal science fiction, and many experts jumped out to point out that fairy tales are unreal, no realistic, makes people realize in the real world that real life is not as good as fairy tales at all, so they are disappointed and frustrated, and then point out that they should not believe those unreal fairy tales. However, fairy tales like 'The Mermaid' that ends in tragedy had already clearly reminded us of the regrets and imperfections in the world.
Since fairy tales are created by humans, you have to put efforts to do your best, if you want to become the hero and heroine of a happy ending fairy tale. After all, fairy tales are created by us.
The so-called "where the mind goes, where the body goes." The whereabouts of the mind determines where the body goes. Our actions are guided by our hearts to practice what our hearts long for. It's just that the quality and purity of our inner yearning also affects the nobleness and inferiority of our self-cultivation behavior, as well as the success and failure of our life.
The Danish Crown Prince's fairy tale has proved that the fairy tales with happy endings are made by people, aren't they?
