From the first Princess, Snow White, to the newest one, Moana, the Disney Princesses have been Disney's pride and joy. They are some of Disney’s most popular characters, and children all around the world look up to them, but there are plenty of reasons why the Disney Princesses should be everyone’s role model.

They are all beautiful in their own way both inside and out.

They are kind and caring to everyone even animals. They are the not judgmental even when it comes to hairy beasts and evil fairies. They will even lend a hand and fight for you. They know that beauty doesn't just come from looks and that true beauty lies within the heart which is something we all need to understand.

They Take chances.

They risk it all for their dreams and for others. Cinderella risked getting in trouble to go to the ball while Merida went against her mother’s wishes fought for the right to control her own destiny. Rapunzel even left the tower she has been in her whole life to fulfill her dreams of seeing the lanterns and Mulan risked her life to save her dad's. A princess is brave enough to take risks for not only others but for ourselves too just like a princess does and that is something we should be doing too.

They are ambitious.

Disney has taught us that a princess doesn’t just rely on luck to achieve their dreams, but they work hard for them too. They are ambitious and loyal. Tiana worked hard to gain her restaurant, Anna was determined to get her sister back and save summer. A princess is much more than a dainty maiden waiting to be saved. Sometimes they have to save themselves to get what they need themselves. We need to want to be the princess of our own story.

They are independent and strong-willed leaders.

All the princesses are courageous and strong. They don’t just play the victim but are leaders themselves. A princess doesn’t need a man in her life. Mulan didn’t need one or to be one for that matter to save China. Elsa stands strong as Queen of Arendelle without a king by her side, and Merida proved to everyone that she can create her own destiny and that they didn’t need a man in it. We should want to be as great of a leader as a Disney Princess.

They understand the true power of love.

Whether that love is from family, a friend, or true love’s kiss a true princess knows and understands the power of love. They understand that the most powerful weapon and antidote is love and know that love comes from anywhere and anything. A princess believes that love conquers all, and that is something that everyone should believe in too.
