Magic and Fairy Dust...

We are back in the land of Magic and Fairy Dust

a land created by The Fairy God-Mother

aka me

Every year

for the past few

I have put on a luncheon for a group of 5

beautiful young girls

they are the daughters of some women in my life

and since I have no daughters of my own

I thought it would be fun to,

for one day,

be a mother of sorts....

A Fairy God-Mother

to these girls...

watching them grow into vibrant young women

offering them a place to dream

to connect

to commune

(the girl world is so different from the boy world

I love it!)

with the help of a sister-friend

we created a magical world

in which they could spend the day

playing dress up

dreaming

giggling

and talking

truly

it was magic...

the day ended with the heavens opening up

and sprinkling down rain

a fresh baptizing

bringing in the season of harvest

a season of magic

Love and Light

Thank you for allowing us to get a glimpse of this magical world. I love those women who have the capacity to be the mother of children, who are not their own and extend their motherly love beyond their own children. You are truly admirable for that,having the courage to look beyond your own boundaries.
The photographs are wonderful and the ambiance is magical !
Sending love your way,

"I have a new command for you. As I have loved you, so you must love others. "~Jesus

"You don't have a soul. You are a Soul...you have a heart." ~C.S. Lewis

"Humankind has not woven the web of Life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. all things are bound together. all things connected." ~Chief Seattle, 1854

If ever there comes a time when the women of the world come together purely and simply for the benefit of mankind, it will be a force such as the world has never known."~ Matthew Arnold

“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”~ Buddha

"The world will be saved by the Western woman....Some people will call me a feminist...but we need more effort to promote basic human values-human compassion, human affection. And in that respect, females have more sensitivity for others' pain and suffering." ~Dalai Lama

"All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another." ~Anatole France

Out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing, there is a feild. I'll meet you there. ~Rumi

"Those who seem to know more truth than you simply reflect the part of you that has forgotten. They are your touchstones to remember." ~Alan Cohen

"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another;unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, resent, and the future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations." ~Anais Nin

"Process is more important than outcome. when the outcome drives the process we will only ever go to where we've already been. If process drives outcome we may not know where we're going, but we will know we want to be there." ~ Bruce Mau
