hommage to Listen To Trees, Yourfriendinspirit, AccousticGod, Hippichick, sattvicmoon, venusdeindia, robyn.c, mannu, lexx, jai, battle of evermore, zala, mirandee, node, Blueroamer, dafremen. sorry to those who moved me but i've forgotten... i mean...er,... not really forgotten....humm.... humm....but...er,... i just didn't remember you at the time i was writing.....humm.....ooops, i'm making it worst, isn't it? basically, i love you ALL, and SORRY if i forgot to mention you. i singled these people out because they left a very strong imprint on me,....hum, i don't think i make it any better here. well you got me: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TO EVERYONE a magical forest one night i arrived in a magical forest. i had been dreaming of a safe heaven, different from the planet of sand i came from. here, in front of my eyes, blue elves were roaming around, enjoying the bliss of the wind under the motherly eye of a serene moon and the brightest star of all, venusdeindia. i sat on the bank of a brook passing through the woods and i listened to the trees. hours became minutes in their company. the atmosphere was so special here, i could feel a sense of freedom. i also got the impression to be constantly observed but i didn't feel threatened about it. as i was gazing into the stars, i heard some noise coming from the stream. i didn't see anything at first, until i distinguished... a fish. it was some kind of hippi chic fish, a sort of bohemian artist, in water. she didn't seemed too scared of me, and came closer, just to disappear as suddenly in the water that looked like love. the light from the moon and from the bright star was so great that i could distinguish the splendid colors from the flowers along the riverside. i gathered some mirandee, some mannu and some zala to bring back to the fremen. filled with so much love, i carried on my journey. later on, near a glade, i heard a divine melody. it seemed like a god playing accoustic the battle of evermore. animals were gathering respectfully. i didn't want to disturb any of them and tried to disappear but nobody fools a god and without stopping the music, he invited me to join the spectacle. i felt truly grateful. all the animals were subjugated as well. but my curious nature pushed me to move on and explore the rest of the magical forest before my departure. on my way, i met with three enchantresses. they were bending over the grass, picking up some herbs. i whistled to warn them of my presence. i was exhausted from the long walk to find this magical forest and was anxious at the idea of the journey back home. i was about to ask them for some help but before i said anything, they warmly introduced themselves. one was called robyn.c, the others jai and lexx. they knew what i needed before i asked, and gave me some plants that they tied with a magical node to the bunch of flowers. they told me this node was a free spirit and we would get along just fine. when i turned around they had already disappeared but i could still hear a joyful laugh. i was so excited by the discovery of this enchanting place that i couldn't wait to meet again with my friends in spirit who had been waiting for me since i'd left, and tell them everything about this magical place called Lindaland.  ------------------ a message to my friends IP: Logged |

That is so nice.  (maybe it should be mentioned that many of those Knowflakes dont frequent this forum. I think some of them lurk but a few of them may never get a chance to see this...perhaps youve emailed it to some of them so that they may get to enjoy it too...  IP: Logged |

Praecipua, WOW! I am impressed. You are one of the few people that I would really like to go on a drink with. And I am saying that not because I am choosy but because you are always interesting and I believe I can talk anything with you. You are truly an aqua spirit and much much more  Cheers! IP: Logged |

Thank you leo *major* (to me ) This week has been rather short of chuckles -- thank you for delighting me with your cute story  I'm glad you're here at LL sharing yourself with us, praecipua..... Zala PS: Tell me, when you "gathered some Mirandee, some Mannu and some Zala," what colors were we?? A very dark red would suit my fancy  IP: Logged |

praecipua  I feel the same. For me it has been 21 years for my sister and 12 for a friend. BOE Like praecipua, I do not know what to say. The biggest thing is know it was his choice. You did nothing wrong. If you need to talk about it privately I am here. Love LexxIP: Logged |

contact me too, i don't have AIM and my computer plays tricks with me so i can't install it. but email me at 143063@soas.ac.uk if you need to talk. i can relate. my universe changed as well when dad died when i was 13, just ready to meet up properly for the first time since childhood. it's been a while and may be i can share with you on the benefits of time. but for now, my words would be empty of significance.... meanwhile, Lord let me know what you need and i'll provide you with the best of my abilities. Take Care now.  IP: Logged |

Thank you. I'm just trying to collect myself now, I guess... it's all kind of surreal. I replied to you in my thread. I very much appreciate the sincere concern and support. You are all angels. IP: Logged |
