The first princess of the Disney Renaissance era, Ariel has also been part of the Disney Princess franchise officially since its creation. Ariel is the daughter of King Triton and is the Princess of Atlantica. Ariel is born a mermaid but falls in love with a human prince and needs to make some big decisions to be with him.
So what lessons can we learn from Ariel and the Little Mermaid? The first is the importance of sacrifice. Her willingness to give up her voice and her life under the sea for love shows us the lengths that we sometimes need to go for those we care about. Her story really emphasizes that love is a powerful force for both change and transformation.
I also think that Ariel reminds us that sometimes impulsive decisions make us think carefully about the consequences of our actions. We should always think carefully about our decisions especially if they are going to change our life.
My lesson: We should be true to ourselves. We need to be true to our desires and dreams but remember also that there are sometimes consequences to our actions.
