The Eye Opener Story. No Kidding And No Fairytale.

Three children were playing outside. It was fun. The sun smiled at them. A gift from God. They were happy and content. They would never have known that there was another scene inside of them. If only. Yes. Confirmed. A magic force at work to make them understand the truth. The real truth. The tree was involved in the whole process. Suddenly the branches showed little changes. More and more. Beautiful gifts. One of the children saw the action ongoing. It got excited. The other children saw it now too.

Curious as children always are, they approached the tree. The tree enjoyed the attention and sweet child eyes focus. It motivated him to grow stronger and become even a better version of himself. The children were impressed. One of the children stared at the scene. A wooden door opened inside the tree. As children are not afraid, they grabbed the chance to dive inside the heart of the tree. The sun saw them disappearing. Silence. The birds noticed that something mysterious was going on. Their songs were more gentle as usual.

The heart of the tree welcomed the children. They felt safe. Ofcourse this was all new for them, but they felt good. Were happy to live this new experience. The tree was very old and had collected many stories over time. The children felt the magic of the tree. With big eyes they looked around. Many rooms suddenly visible. Behind other rooms. Unbelievable. Yet true. The children laughed and enjoyed what was happening to them and around them. The tree felt alive. Grateful for such wonder.

'Can I tell you a story?', sweet children, asked the wise and old tree. The children adored stories. As children mostly do. So they found a place in the arms of the heart of the tree. Cosy together. Holding hands. They were ready to hear the story and so it began. The screen was placed close to the children, so that they could see every single thing. The movie started and the children were following the storyline. Nobody really knows how the movie went. Mysteries stay mysteries. A good thing. Fact is, the children saw a different reality. 

The door opened again. After some time. The three children were not saying a word. One by one they left the heart of the old tree. The love of the tree surrounded them. What a beautiful feeling. The birds picked up the vibration and their music sounded different. Sweeter. More gorgeous notes. The sun felt the change and gave her best to put even more glorious power into it. The children were radiating. Their eyes had a magic cover. They saw now better what the needs were. From themselves and others. 

More water. More love. The tree appreciated all presents. The children gave the tree all what it needed. The tree trusted the process and gave so much back in return. Everywhere the children turned up, they helped others. They learned to speak the language of the heart. The people in the village noticed the change in the children and they could not stop talking about the little miracles of love. The joy increased. More laughter. More bliss. And so from an early age, the children easily understood that needs are there for a reason. No kidding and no fairytale. They each want to share their story. Just listen. For a while. Really listen. No comments. Then with some magic, they turn into love. Maybe all birds are just signs that true love is meant to get Wings ...
