The last part was sad.<br /><br />I guess all one can do is pray for such folks, that maybe they shall find their very own fairy land. cynthiagrlx@.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15899106950524179648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1587754892190793312.post-41637976254640586782013-06-05T19:17:15.658-07:002013-06-05T19:17:15.658-07:00Good writeup!

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case.<br /><br />Probably it's just my "muggle" eyes or it's probably due to the fact that I always just "wish" to be able to see them inside my head instead of actually going out trying hard to look for them in all the weird places but whatever the reason, I haven't been able to see any such creature yet in my life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
