    Finding yourself in a temple like Ta Prohm with its mysterious stone structures, the large banyan trees that are reclaiming the architecture and devouring it back into the earth is a kind of mystical experience. I was there wandering between the ancient walls when I heard a rustle behind the trees, I looked over and…

    I have been thinking a lot lately about children and the process of growing up. My daughter is 7 and she is a dreamer, a total believer in the magic of life, in fairies, in angels, in the unusual and special things about life. As she gets schooled and gradually grows older, some of her…

    If I were to imagine a perfect place where I long to be when the world gets too noisy, and if I were to give it a color, it would most certainly be blue. Blue is soothing, calming, quiet, swirling, cooling, peaceful, deep, gentle… Yes, that is where I would dream of sailing, into the…

    To believe in fairies To imagine what their tiny wings look like To dream about seeing them one day To struggle with patience To make them offerings To promise to be kind To be respectful of nature and its helpers To have a mind sparkling with the wonder of mysteries unsolved Is the  charmed and…

    Do you believe in fairies? Do you leave them cookies and milk? Do you build gardens, rings and circles for them? Do you swear that you saw them? Do you blame your naughty deeds on them? Does innocence live in your heart? Does wonder? Does magic? Little girls have all that magic!

    A magical circle of girls To watch a group of little girls play in harmony is to witness magic in the making! I was transfixed watching Lea and her friends play this afternoon from the window of our 16th floor apartment in Shanghai.
