I believe that everyone really does have these fairy godmothers. You could substitute the fairy godmother figure for angels, any archetypal figures or gentle guides. They take many forms and could be in your life for a chance meeting or over a long period of time. They could be a parent, grandparent, a pet, relative, a friend, a teacher, anyone.
They are part of nature’s encoded ability to always seek harmony and balance. Anything that ever happens to any of us, no matter how dire the situation seems, is always counter balanced with this supportive, loving energy.
You can look for these gentle guides if you want, you’ll find their indelible influence was always there. And though there were times, they were nearly overshadowed by painful experience, at the end of the day it is what most wants to be known. The stories of our lives only half written in the isolation of loss and sorrow, the other half in partnership with gentle guiding lights.
I totally agree with you there :) In my case, I think I have fairy godfathers (or godgrandfathers) instead. After my father died, when I was a sophomore in college, I keep crossing paths with old men who would go out of their way to make me smile and feel good. They usually appeared out of no where and were people I never met before or again. I can remember each episode vividly even after all the years that have passed. I love, and look forward to my interactions with my fairy god fathers :)
Really good point on fairy godfathers. I totally feel my father with me and that he’s had a non-physical hand in taking a lot of things to the next level for me.
It’s a beautiful life to believe that we are always supported, that everything is miraculous and how privileged I am to live this life. There are times, mostly in the solitude of the middle of the night, I feel shot through the very heart of me, at the miracle of it all. Humbling is all I can say.
