The current essay is a letter to Little Prince, the main character from “The Little Prince” tale, written by Antoine de Saint-Exupery in 1943. The story may, at first sight, be considered a fairy tale for children. However, the novella includes numerous vital themes that are devoted not only to children but to adults as well. The Little Prince makes important observations about friendship, love, dreams, feelings, kindness, loneliness, and human nature. The following piece is the letter addressed to Little Prince. Dear Little Prince, It is something magical to write this letter. Truly, I am thrilled to tell you how I feel about your thoughts, your lessons, and your observations. I read your story for the first time when I was a child. I have never forgotten it since then, and, moreover, I often reread it. Every time I find something new, truly deep, kind, and honest in it. This letter is a way to say thank you for the wise lessons and to remind myself of those lessons which adults, including myself, easily forget. One of the most memorable lessons from you, Little Prince, is that “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye” (de Saint-Exupery 86). We cannot physically see the most important things in life, such as love, friendship, happiness, loyalty, trust, but we can feel it with our hearts. It may sound obvious, but I believe grown-ups often forget about such simple truth. Moreover, we should remind ourselves about it, because if we stop valuing those invisible things, we will not feel alive. Another vital lesson from your adventures is the one about relationships with other people. Relationships with others make our life unique, special, colorful, and, most importantly, meaningful. We need to build connections to feel that our life is worth living. I am convinced that the lesson is significant, because we, grown-ups, often avoid relationships with others. We are afraid to trust, to share, and “to tame” as in your story with the fox and it is necessary to learn being with other people. One more lesson I have taken from your story is on the importance of self-discipline and care for our surroundings. You told a reader: “First thing in the morning you look after yourself, you brush your teeth and wash your face, don’t you? Well, the second thing you must do is to look after the planet” (de Saint-Exupery 27). Caring about things that surround us is essential, as we are responsible for it. We are concerned about our houses, our pets, our work we need to do, and for our planet. Clearly, it is important to take care of ourselves, but we should not forget about other things that matter. Little Prince, when I was a child, I read and heard hundreds of fairy tales about princes and princesses, about dragons, fairies, and many other magical creatures. Some I still remember, but most of them were quickly forgotten. I cannot explain exactly why, but it feels to me, they simply did not teach important lessons for adulthood. They did not explain what is vitally important in life no matter what. Your story answers vital questions and brings faith and goodness, and a lot of magic that we, adults, sometimes need so badly.
