ῸƝÇƐ upon a time a girl was living far – beyond nowhere land- and even further. She was living so far that some nights when she couldn’t sleep, she was thinking if she existed. Her mirror laughed when she asked. Of course silly, earlier you washed your face and brushed your teeth, you exist all right. She sneaked away from the mirror without being convinced. Everybody and not only she knew that mirrors deceive with their lies and they have the evil power to twist.

She had other reasons too.

Long time ago she dreamt of a man and this man used to come in her dreams sometimes. She knew his thoughts and he knew hers also. There were nights when she feared that he will not find his way back to her dreams because she was living far and there were many roads and turns and forests and even dragons but above all a dangerous ocean between them that maybe will stop him.

You see, this girl used to believe in miracles so every night when she went to bed she counted the miracles of the day. Maybe you will find it odd but indeed in the end of the day she always had a miracle to dream upon.

The last thought of the day for the girl has been for the one who gave her the miracle and to thank him because he was the man who loved and adored more than anything in the world and she thought that it would be a pity if she doesn’t exist because she lives so far or if he will not be able to find his way to her heart because of the dangers in the forest and the ocean between them.

She opened the windows and prayed to the skies she asked for help to find a way that her lover will not get lost in the wilderness of the faraway land. The moon came to see who is calling for help because already knew about the two lovers, long time ago they have been kissed in the moonlight lake, the same night that the girl promised herself to this man.

Then the stars came to help and brought with them their light but it was the bright star of North the one that blinked the eye.

“Use your hands” the bright star advised and then she knew as if always know.

She used the beams of moonlight to make threads and pearls from the stars’ shine and mixed them together with the love from her heart, and then added memories of his smile and together with the warmth of his heart and the threads became shining and strong.

The moon said that she will hurt her fingers but she didn’t mind if she will bleed.

The girl of our story then started to weave the richer and the most detailed map. She weaved the woods, the forests and the turns, and even the dangerous ocean between them covered by a bridge of pearls and her tears.

She will give him as a gift once is finished and he will always find his way to her heart without the fear that he will lose his way in the wilderness of faraway land and even further.

She will do what she can, and one hopes if they will live happily ever after. At least she will try and she now knows that she exists.
