Oscar Wilde said that life imitates art far more than art imitates life.
I say, that's why life is a fairytale.
The fairytale is art. It is filled with magic, with the unbelievable, with romance and goblins and ghosts and happily ever afters - all the things we say are "just not real" - the machinations of a madman, the fantasies of a hopeless romantic.
Albert Einstein says the imagination is more important than knowledge.
That's because fairytales tap into the collective unconsciousness. It is the integration of dark and light. It is the authentic nature.
With fairytales we can heal our bodies from trauma - our minds, our emotions, our pasts and our futures are transformed.
Jesus was the first fairytale. The ultimate artist, surprising and exciting, creating miracles and wonders through healing and alchemy. He was the rebel, the revolutionary, the poet, the greatest leader filled with compassion and pure love.
To fairytales and birthdays and the king of all kings, Amen.
