The Untitled Story

The Untitled Story

The forest kept a secret. Deep in its heart. The birds knew it and did sing about it many times. Yet, only a few dared to listen to the song of the birds. One day a father walked with his little daughter in the forest. The little girl instantly loved the environment, where fairytales come alive. She asked a lot of questions and her father always responded with the patience of a man that would go through fire for his beloved one. That day the little girl decided to return to the forest, alone. It was a decision that was fixed in her being. The countdown started. 

When the girl was a little bit older, she woke up on a sunny summer day. Someone called her name. She left her warm bed, jumped into her lovely dress and shoes and left the house. Her father was still sleeping. The forest was not so far from their house, yet contained some potential dangers. It was a risk to go their on your own. Especially as a little girl. She could only respond to the call of the forest and did not worry at all about what could happen. She went deeper and deeper in the forest. The birds followed her in silence. Protecting her with love. Nothing bad could happen.

Inside the heart of the forest there was a space with golden light. A crown in the spotlights. Playful and curious as the girl was, she touched the crown. A magic energy was set free. It surrounded her before she realised what really occured in that particular moment. The crown looked good on her. Wearing the crown seemed natural to her. Suddenly she felt connected to all beings in the forest and she could speak their language. The forest was alive and many stories were about to happen. 

If only they could decide which story would be revealed first. It was necessary to vote for the one story that would make the headlines. The beings of the forest noticed how a human being was watching their conversation. They were not afraid as true survivors can handle any challenge. They needed a director and were convinced that this female being could do the role with success. She accepted the mission. Soon all participants received a leaf and a pencil. The ants played the drums. The sound was clear enough. Time to speak up.

Everyone handed in the leaves and the girl was asked to count the votes. Every vote was counted twice to ensure that the process was done right. The sun was shining on her red long hair. She seemed so special and unique. The female beings of the forest admired her appearance and as all femals do, reflected on their own looks. The male beings wondered secretly if she could fall for them. Of course, each one of them had the confidence to think that that would be the case. The girl was focused on her task only.

The checklist of the stories was complete. All stories got their votes. On the list there was one story with no title. Nobody would ever have guessed that that would be the winning one. Somehow the beings of the forest loved the unknown more than they ever admitted. She raised her voice so that everyone could hear the outcome. All beings took it as it was represented. The birds clapped their wings. Time for action. The movie demanded preparation. Everyone contributed to the making of the untitled story.

The father woke up from a dream. He wondered why it was so quiet in the house. As careful fathers do, he went into the bedroom of his little one. She was gone. He kept calm but wanted to find her back as soon as possible. There was only one place she could have gone. He knew her love for the forest. As he approached the heart area of the forest, he could not believe his eyes. There she was, his daughter, mastering a movie, like only the great ones of this earth do. His eyes were tearing. A feeling of proudness and love overwhelmed him.

He took a seat on the green carpet and watched every step of the process. For some reason it touched him deeply to see her in action. His heart healed more and more. Once upon a time he felt lost when he wanted to fulfill a dream. The bad ghosts of the past haunted him. He felt guilty and could not get rid of that crazy feeling. The movie was tailor made for his heart. It seemed that he had done everything right. Everything was as meant to be. He only had to change how he looked at things. Inner acceptance was the essence.

At the end of the movie, his daughter spoke to him. She let him now that he could decide upon the title of the movie. He felt blessed and seen. He reflected a little while. 'Leave the story untitled', he told her. The whole forest waited for more feedback. He told her that he once had a dream that he could not achieve and that it killed him inside. They both cried. The toxic left their family dna. In that moment the magic happened. The stones that hijacked his heart, left his body and soul. The dream of the father came true, in a universe that played another movie, at the same time.

His heart received a golden color. She showed her father her dreams and her capability to make them all alive. He smiled and hugged his daughter with an unconditional love that was so rare and beautiful. Their hearts danced in the sun. The forest fell in love with them both at once. From a distance a queen mother looked at them. She was content and happy. She always knew in her heart that the time would come to heal the deepest pain and to transform it into golden bliss. The universe never forgets dreams and let the dreamers know when it is their time to appear on scene. 

The most adorable infinite checklist of dreams never gets lost. Nobody and nothing can ever change that. No ghost and no stone. When one universe closes its doors, the other one opens and presents the exact circumstances to create what really matters to the hearts. Life is more beautiful than the sweetest fairytale on earth.
