Go deeper into the forest but beware the path may be blessed. Or it might be a gateway to a content life.
It is said that those who gladly walk the path will be forever freed.
Do you hear the joyful sounds of the found souls? Can you hear the laughter of the seen creatures?
Leave you lantern. You don’t need comfort here.
The bright midday sun will light your way. Its light, dappled through the leaves of ancient oak trees will warm your soul.
If you see a woman, follow her. She will lead you to her comfortable forest home and she you on your way filled with tea and happiness.
The journey is safe, and if you embrace your courage and accept your joys, you might just make it out the other side.
