HOME, WHERE ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE...


Magic...magic...magic...magic! The world has changed and everything is new. It's sparkling everywhere with a sugar coating on top of perfect white icing. Princess Willowmena came to me again. The fairy dust was all over, even in her usually impeccable hair and down the collar of her brand new Winter Coat.

"Oh, those pesky fairies! They haven't a lick of sense, not a single one of them. They've all gone quite mad and filled the world with an over abundance of sugar coating and fairy dust. How shall we get anything practical done today?" She was peeved, to say the least. It was everywhere you know. Ever so often the Fairy King sends his magic into the world of Mundanes, trying to get them to pay attention. But none of them  ever do, well...except for the littlest ones. They always seem to know just exactly what he's talking about. But the big ones, the people with wrinkles and worries (everyone knows that one causes the other and vice versa!), never seem to be willing to slow down enough to understand. Kings can be quite insulted when it comes to being ignored!


Everyone and everything is covered in fairy dust that's inches and inches thick! Things change when the Fairy King gets in this kind of mood. The light is different and the air is crystal clear, much as it is in the Land of Faery where the clocks never work and time just is...Everyone who is anyone, well at least the most important 'anyone's' ,are all aware of how things stand. It's time, as time is seen on the other side, to just stop and BELIEVE!


I heard the KING. He came to me in a dream and said " If you stop to breath the RIGHT way, to see CLEARLY, to feel GREATLY, then you will know me. I can only give to you what you need WHEN you are willing to take it. But it will take great effort from you to overcome the shortcomings of your Mundaneness. You must slow down to the pace of the Land of Faery. Follow the Big Red One. He will teach you. Ride the wind with the Little Kahuna. He will carry you. Allow the Princess to show you your manners. Then you will be welcome back to the Land of Faery, a place you left your heart in when you had not grown heavy with wrinkles and their attendant worries...or vice versa."


And so the day began again. And everything was deep in sugar, sweet and more than any one Mundane could ever use! And the light changed, brushing the world with gold and silver blue...


So we crossed the Great Sugar Glaciers and went into the...


the Forests of Faery, where the sky is always ten hundred shades of blue and what seems small is always taller than you think.


And then we climbed to the top of Mount Va-Poopius where anything can grow, even your imagination. And we found our way...


HOME, where anything is possible.

I am...always...yours, Nancy who still believes in half full glasses and fairy dust
