Puer aeternus

Ways To Live a Fairytale::

Kiss passing amphibians, just in case
Wear your hair in braids, curled up over your head
Have a conversation with your mirror as you’re getting ready in the morning
Go apple picking in an orchard
Wear silver bells tied to your ankles
Grow wild roses and jasmine in your garden
Leave milk and honey out for the Faeries
Pluck daisy petals, ‘He loves me.. he loves me not’
Sing old disney tunes in the bath
Celebrate May day, wear flowers in your hair and bathe in the morning dew
Bring a basket of fresh cookies to your grandmother
Give yourself a secret name that noone else knows
Wear glittery shoes of silver or ruby red
Go for a moonlight walk on the beach and look for mermaids and selkies
Write your dreams down each morning in a midnight blue diary
Tell stories to children
Hide a dried pea under your mattress
Help an old woman you meet on your way
Place a single red rose in a vase by your bed
Spend a whole day in bed, in a pretty nightgown and wait for a kiss
Bake a gingerbread man or house
Wear a goosefeather for good luck
Eat porridge for breakfast, make sure the temperature is just right
Search for the end of a rainbow
Go dancing at midnight
