becoming prince charming part 4...and the man can sing

OK, something important to note about Prince Charming…
The man has got some pipes.
Men live in this odd confusion about things that men are supposed to do and things men are not.  Most of the nots are simply things that do more to demonstrate fear than masculinity.  Weaker men are afraid of doing something that isn’t…manly.  The fear is that their manhood will be challenged and they will be considered wimpy.  
But, as any ugly man who plays a guitar can tell you, singing is sexy.  
See, so much of the confusion of princeliness comes by thinking that what makes a man is all of the external stuff.  Sword fighting, horse riding, and picking up princesses have become marks of what makes a good prince.  But then, here is our hero, singing his big heart out because a prince is made up of what is inside as well as what is outside.  
Being willing to sing, dance, pay and instrument, paint, write (thank you), sculpt, or any other expression of soul demonstrates a free man.  This is a man who is confident, at peace, and filled with the joy of being alive.  He isn’t afraid of his status or what the others would say about him.  
He’s just interested in adding his voice to the song of the world...
...and a duet with a princess.
