"Where better to care for the soul than in the details of our daily lives?....The soul has an absolute, unforgiving need for regular excursions into enchantment. It requires them like the body needs food and the mind needs thought... An enchanted world is one that speaks to the soul, to the mysterious depths of the heart and imagination where we find value, love and union with the world around us. As mystics of many religions have taught, that sense of rapturous union can give a sense of fulfillment that makes life purposeful and vibrant." ~ Thomas Moore.

Missing/Returned/Borrowed Things and the Elven Folk

December 21, 2010 post elsewhere......

oh I had a little fairy/elf here 2 weeks ago.
I have a lipgloss called "Champagne" I keep in a little zipper pocket in my purse. I usually don't misplace anything as I'm very organized and I hate to spend time looking for misplaced things so I don't do it.
My lipgloss I use about 6 times a day and I can reach into my purse blindfolded and pick it out which I do often. One day it wasn't there when I had used it just an hour ago. I looked everywhere. I emptied my purse inside out, moved the bed, looked in the car and called my friend to look for it there. It was gone. I replaced it with a new one, and had used it for a week in the little pocket in my purse. One day I reached in to use it and there were two. The one that was ''taken'' was ''replaced'' exactly where I had left it, in the little pocket.
No, no one else lives here.

 It happened again folks.....this morning.....same thing.

I use the same lipgloss/balm, keep it in the same little pocket. It disappeared 2 days ago, and I said 'oh no, how could I lose this?? or maybe the ''elves'' borrowed it again? Cannot be!''
I looked high and low. Emptied the purse, squeezed it, refilled it with emptied contents, looked under the bed, side of it, car, all over the house. I thought I misplaced it. After 2 days, I replaced it with 2. Jokingly I said the elves took it again, but I really thought I lost it.
This morning I had a dentist appt and didn't want lipgloss on but I took a pink one for when I come out of the dentists and put it in the little pocket and left. Once out of that horrid procedure, numb and in shock, while at the receptionists desk, I opened my purse to put it on my poor dry lips, and there were two!.....the pink one I put in 2 hours earlier and the one that was lost.....yes, the very same one, half used.....sitting right on top of the pink one I put in. Soooo.....from the time I threw the pink one into the little pocket and ran out the door and the dentists reception desk, the ''lost'' one was returned. This is not normal. :D....I like ''not normal''......I just wish they'd explain themselves and show up!
