The freedom to love and individuality. The difference between spiritual love and carnal love. Love for the self and love for a beloved. The fear and fascination elicited by those who don't fit conventional categories and definitions.
Hans Christian Andersen was probably not thinking about these ideas when he wrote his fairy tale "The Little Mermaid," at least not with a conscious agenda. And yet this story about a mermaid, a figure with a long mythological history, offers an interesting opportunity to reflect on these themes.
This original version by Andersen is not Disney. It might surprise you. The story doesn’t offer solutions but it may launch valuable personal reflection into your beliefs about who and how to love, and how you value your love relationships.
