Dear Frozen,

Thank you. Thank anda for being pretty much the only realistic portrayal of Cinta in mainstream media in the last- oh, I don’t know- at least five years.

Thank anda for menunjukkan that Hans, the handsome gallant prince of the Southern Isles who seemed a perfect match for Anna is fallible. Thank anda for menunjukkan that the idea of a “one perfect match” isn’t necessarily realistic. Thank anda for menunjukkan us that Cinta is like with Kristoff, how everyone has their rough edges, how no one can fit the mold of perfection. Thank anda for reminding us that “everyone’s a bit of a fixer-upper, that’s what it’s all about!” And, especially, thank anda for saying clearly that “people don’t really change.” Thank anda for being so clear in that Cinta is about accepting people, especially their flaws, and not finding someone who fits an ideal.

But most of all, thank you, Olaf, for giving pretty much the only sane definition of Cinta any media has telah diberi in too, too long. Thank anda for telling us “Love is putting someone else’s needs before yours” in an age of “The best Cinta of all is loving yourself,” “You have to Cinta yourself before anda can Cinta others,” and “You have to provide for yourself before anda can provide for someone else.” Thank anda for reminding us that Cinta is selfless. Thank anda for the fact that little boys and girls will watch Frozen and hear that Cinta is about consciously making someone else lebih important and not about making sure you’re fulfilled above all else. Thank anda for the truth anda gave us that the world has tried so hard to deny. Thank anda for reminding us that Cinta is, above all, sacrifice.
