“I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as the here and now?”
~John Lennon
What happens when the faeries live in, and around, your house? Once upon a time, almost 15 years ago, we were looking to buy a home on a lake that was close to town. We spotted ‘the one’: older, in need of some loving care and on a small lake. From the very beginning, there was something a bit magical about the place, nothing we could put our finger on exactly, but it was there. It is like there is an unmistakable force. When family or friends visit, they often comment on how it feels here – fun, playful, energetic, gentle, safe, boundless, sparkling, loving . . .
When first working with the landscape architect, we asked her for a feeling of sanctuary and refuge for us, for the animals and for the faeries. Since that time, we include the faeries when we talk with service people and visitors. They may think we are talking ‘tongue in cheek’; but then again, are we?
Faerie Tales is a remembering of our adventures with the faeries, including some faerie lore I have picked up along the way. Join us for Faerie Tales as our adventure unfolds.
