“Fairy tales”

Have you ever heard about the “Once Upon of time there was …” Doesn’t it bring you memories of your childhood ? Or what about its magical creatures like fairies, pans, mermaids, trees that will talk to you, dwarfs, unicorns and all of those magical things that live in it but well as we grow up we learn that those were just stories that have been told again and again for generations now and some of them change but the message is always the same. Have you even wondered if those beautiful places and magical friends really exist or they are just a myth?
I have and I really want them to be real ‘cause what are we without or imagination? Just living creatures and will do the same thing day after day for the rest of their lives. I think that reality is a matter of discussion since everyone sees things in a different way depending on their experiences in life and how we play with our own minds and the limits and boundaries that we decide to put or not to destroy.
Since we are born we are told how to do things, how to see them, what’s good, bad, what colors are and what they represent, what forms are and how to recognize them and everyone teach us something and tell us how to drive our lives in a different way. Through our lives we start building all this limitations in our minds, bodies and souls; we don’t look much further than what we have in front of our noses and we forget the spiritual and magical planes and only concentrate in the physical one.

There are some that find this other worlds and they are so amazed by them that they decide to take a journey out of their physical bodies and posses their spiritual ones; they fly freely and live their own reality, in fact I think that everyone has a part of that on their lives ‘cause even if you are part of the rest that lives by the rules of society and fallow its patterns in different aspects there’s always a voice that makes you do things that someone else might not do and ideas that most people wouldn’t share or think that are appropriate. I think that I am of those dreamers that have lots of things in me that are different than others and I haven’t see any of these magical things happening to me but maybe I’m not quite ready for them yet, all I know is that when I’m alone with the nature I feel like there's so much more out there that I’m missing but I know they're out there ‘cause I can feel this peace and this tranquility that calls me and invites me to relax and just enjoy the silence or join the dance of the leaves with the wind when they fall of the trees, the bugs singing their songs to the moon as a ritual for them every night in secret, the animals having a perfect balance in their society and always being fair and honest just using violence to survive and not just for power.

I believe in romance and its beauty, I believe that everyone has a soul mate and even if you don’t meet that person in this life someday you will. Some people find it in their very first one but some others have to live many ones to finally meet with their best-half. I know that I’ve had many lives ‘cause even if I still feel like a kid and enjoy that part of me so much my soul feel old as a tree that its roots will cover a whole forest but that is good ‘cause I can do many things just by listening to my guiding spirit and in every life we have people that guide us and teach us something that will be good for this and next lives but there’s always a special someone that is your mentor and this person is going to teach you the most important lessons of your life and once they teach you all you need to know you’ll be ready to move on to your next one.
This I want to dedicate to my mentor, my friend, my soul mate, my light, my hope, my guide, my teacher … MY MOM!!!



P.D: For you I am a better person and for you I’m me. I love who I am and I know that there’s much more to learn and that you’ll always be there for me.
