Once upon a time...


Once upon a time, there was a little girl who grew up. The only thing with her was that she did not stop believing in fairy tales. So she went everywhere seeing potential princes and kings and meeting unicorns and trying to build castles and finding real fairy-godmothers and talking to gnomes.... Most of the time, she had real fun, because life is really a dream. And if things stayed colourful in her world, then she had no complaints. Of course, for a person to be able to appreciate rainbows, there has to be rain previously somewhere. And water pouring from the skies is a rather poetic concept, if we realize it makes flowers bloom.
As with all fairy tales, there is always a battle between good and evil, often represented in some form of character or temptation to be overcome - just to add spice and interest to daily happenings. This little girl who had now grown, had met many weirdos of all kinds in her life - she was not afraid of them. She had learnt that when they came around, she just better go and comb and braid her hair... that whole procedure could take a long, long time (both the scary creatures lurking around, as the time she could put into doing her hair).
On sunny and breezy days her favourite way of enjoying her time was taking walks in forests. Often she would meet and talk to various animals. She knew both jungles, as well as the northern hemisphere woods. She had even often been around a "cement" wilderness.... like cities with 21-plus-million inhabitants!
Her foods of choice were berries and nuts. And potatoes! Wow.... potatoes taste so good, anyway you cook them.
Then, came a time when she began to face extremely tough challenges, of the good kind. Right now, she is attempting to make "vertical moves" and to never look back. If crystal balls were available, then we would all know how her story continues...

Here, the images and choice of words are an introspective conversation, full of parallel significance and without compromises.
