Once upon a time, my dream house will have a library. The library will be filled with wall to wall and top to bottom room full of books that I collected over the years. And then I discovered the joy of going to the library. I ended giving away most of my books to goodwill and kept the children’s books.
I never outgrew The Little Prince, All things bright and beautiful, I like you because and The man who planted trees. These books have taught me more than any self-help books that I’ve read. Besides, I love the pictures. It is true that pictures say a thousand words and I can create a different story just by looking at them.

Stories grow older, too, so they seem. Like people’s lives, they tend to become memories written in pages, read for a time, stored in a library and rediscovered in the future. If we define our goodness in such terms, others will remember us, they will pay tribute to us, our biographies will be known and later generation will find us in the history books,
I prefer to be in part of fairy tales and be remembered as Auntie Mame, the classic movie.
Some histories are fairy tales, too. Look at Philippine history, literally and figuratively. 🙂
It did post, what is it?
How People Power Revolution became known in the world and yet it was never realized as promised. That can be described as historical fairy tale. A make-believe for the benefit of the leafing elite,
I remember that. How come the video is not showing. Can you just copy and paste the link? Or can you provide me the title of the YouTube?
Sorry, I have no idea about any video. Did I post something about one? Please enlighten me.
No one is too old for Fairy Tales
This keeps on showing up when I get a reply from you. Maybe this is another quirk in the system.
Yeah, the system is acting up. Yesterday, the Reader did not scroll so I was left to read a few post.
I mean did not post.
Quite right – one is never too old for fairy tales…
I’m living in one these days 😉
That you are with prince charming.
I had the same dream as well, to have a full library filled with books and dark wood and a ladder. And the little prince, what a great book!
It is a classic. Never get tired of it. Hi Emily.
