For three times it will happen and in all those times you’ll be under different circumstances. Fear not, but smile not either, for those will be no ordinary times.

In the first time, you’ll see something new, something you never saw before. It may look like a little elf, like a dwarf or even like a gnome. It is not any of them but your imagination.

No, it’s no lie. But it’s not the truth either.

When you walk over the green garden and let your foot feel the grass that lies beneath them, you will understand.

This time, search for the wind and tell your story.

It will be true, but not the truth yet. Not just yet.

But, you see, there’s a problem.

When you speak the words, they don’t come back and so will they fly over the winds and all over the world.

And here lies the whole problem. The world is not ready. Not just yet.

When the time comes, and it will come, you’ll understand that your words have changed some hearts and some minds.

Questions are going to be made.

This time, don’t tell. The story or anything else. Don’t smile either.

After all your efforts, if you still have to say something. Say it from your mind.

It won’t be true, it won’t be a lie either. But it will be closer to the truth.

And you will feel yourself alone.

But make no mistake, you will be alone.

For alone is what we are indeed; at least, all those who understand and tell stories; but now, again, I must remind you: make no mistake.

For alone you are, but have in your mind that alone you will never be.

You will have your mind and it is all you need; for you might be among a crowd and still feel alone and, likewise, you might be alone and still be among all your creation. Yes, I said that.

And your creation depends on you. Feed them, love them truly. And something will start to form in front of your eyes.

This time, the mistake might be apparent, but yet again, shall you pay close attention to everything and no mistake will be possible.

Remember, in the tell-don’t tell tale, there is only one truth: you create your own reality.

When you truly realize that, you’ll smile. And now you are allowed to do so.

This time, you’ll tell your story again. For you, your creation and everyone else who wants to hear it.

And all will be not only true, but the truth.

Your truth.

(Remember to say thank you, and if you get to have a drink in your hand, raise a toast; they will be pleased.)

Your truth.
