Tired of Trusting Your Relationship Chemistry to the Fairy Godmother?

I remember trying to get relationship chemistry going, when I was a kid.

My best resource was Playboy magazine, which I used to sneak peeks at the drug store, since I am pre-internet and pre-explicit movies, etc... And I did not have the market savvy to know that Hugh Hefner was trying to sell me lots of stuff, rather than help me understand relationship chemistry.

Luckily for folks these days, Helen Fisher, Ph.D, has done some very interesting work on relationship chemistry. She has used a tool that Hugh Hefner and 99% of dating coaches, gurus, mavens, and counselors could only dream about back in the day, called fMRI or functional magnetic resonance images, to look at in-love brains.

Fisher is putting a scientific face on relationship chemistry and the process we humans go through as we work to establish relationship chemistry. One might think that science would take the mystery and poetry out of love, but I do not think that is the case.

I think that folks can be a little more practical if they understand what the feelings in the their bodies are trying to get them to do, and direct the process effectively.

Fisher's fMRI examinations have identifies three brain systems that are active in the relationship chemistry process, and it appears that each of the three has a hormone or neurotransmitter associated with it, and the presence of that neurotransmitter, for example, can be encouraged by engaging in certain activities.

(There is where the strategy of a relationship coach could come in handy).

Fisher's research also says that there are four basic personality types, and that we should make some effort to find a compatible type to have relationship chemistry with.

Contrast that to the Hefner model, which says folks should have relationship chemistry randomly, or the Prince Charming/Cinderella model which says relationship chemistry will happen after the intervention of the Fairy Godmother.

Personally, I will take advantage of the chemistry at Helen Fisher's site, Chemistry.com. I prefer not to waste time.

The Four Types and Their Relationship Chemistry

Professor Fisher says that based on her studies of genetics and neuroscience she believes that people fall into four broad personality types—each influenced by a different brain chemical. She calls her types the the Explorer, Builder, Director, and Negotiator.

Professor Fisher designed a survey for the Oprah show to see which types had married each other and stayed together, and how the mix was playing out in their relationships. She got 500 results and was astounded at the data.

Now, with additional information, she offers scientific guidance about dating depending on which personality you are—especially if you're looking for a relationship chemistry that lasts.

So which love type are you?

Type: The ExplorerTraits: Highly curious, creative, energetic, spontaneous.
Type: The BuilderTraits: Calm, social, popular, and good at managing people, networking, and building family and community.
Type: The DirectorTraits: Analytical and logical, straightforward, decisive, tough minded, and focused.
Type: The NegotiatorTraits: Imaginative, intuitive, empathetic, and emotionally expressive, and have good verbal and social skills.

Fisher says that not only are their personality types, but there are brain systems designed to get us moving down the relationship chemistry path.

The systems are lust, love, and trust systems, each ruled by a different hormone or neurotransmitter.

Those brain systems are what get us moving in the relationship arena, and if we find a compatible personality type, we can move rapidly ahead in affairs of the heart, with less risk of broken hearts and unrequited love.

And my apologies to the Fairy Godmother and the Mr. Hefner. You should have thought of this.

Animated Fairy Pictures Inside My Atrium - Protected by Fantasy Art Warrior Women

Animated fairy pictures
I thought I'd lost them
but there within the pages of my notebook
they are protected
still
by fantasy art warrior women.
I long to know their resilience.

Chinese floral prints
origami folding instructions
flower fairies garden ornaments
kept safely here inside my notebook.
Love poems written to the voice of creativity.
I seek a solace.
I seek a hidden world
once bequeathed inside sweet poems.
I am fairies in art
that got lost in obituary searches.
I somehow know I am not there
yet
so pack up your goddess post.
There will always be ways to end a relationship
this is not that story.

Plant anew
refresh my table
fresh flowers are all lined up
unaware they will soon be picked
Chinese floral prints
despite all those vacant stares.

Heartache bestowed
some self inflicted by way of postponing beauty
beautiful things
that have always been within reach
yet neglected like my baby roses.

These things
sad days
that become a way of life
objections to circumstances
screams that have gone out
denials
embraces eluding to hope
I am defined by what I now accept as normal.
Normal to me.
Still despite the unfolded sheets of paper
knowing I hold clear instructions.
My fantasy art warrior women declined to defend the fort
till now.

Days like this I look out on to the atrium
small pagoda standing in a pretend forest
Japanese intrigue.
I pause in circumstance
and then I live there
beneath the mounds of moss and ferns.
Bonsai tended with care
I am covered by their illusions of peace.

Obituary searches in the public square
sweet poems attached to someone's marker
animated faery pictures
still melted on my sidewalk.
I will walk there tomorrow
there to find art work in a butterfly garden.

There in a landscape I have known
is a tree
I did once discover a little painting
resting in its arms.
I left it there
with a tiny notebook and a pencil
inside a plastic bag
lest someone choose to lend comment
or perhaps a critique.
Yet I fretted about the critique
the painting's author unknown
it was more about the sentiment
just like the world inside my atrium.

Chinese floral prints
I wear them
I am a fantasy art woman
I fold up pieces of paper
origami folding instructions
I scribble messages
I keep my heart safe there.
I know a story well
fantasy art warrior women
placed a stone inside my pillow
lest I find my name is some obscure obituary search.

Fairy Tattoos For Women - Go Cute, Tribal and Sexy With Your Tattoo Designs

Fairy tattoos are popular with women and girls because of their cutesy appearance added with supernatural powers and psychic abilities that this creature supposedly possesses. Fairies have expanded their popularity, by traversing right from the fantasy books and movies all the way to the body art parlors and the trend continues to rise.

Fairy tattoo designs are executed in a variety of ways depending on the wearer or the creativity of the artist. Various poses of fairies, both cute and sexy are combined with flowers, hearts, crosses, glitter, stars, sun, moon and other fantasy themes to create the magical and mythical piece of body art. They can be tattooed in different colors, ranging from red, yellow, orange, purple, green, blue to black and white. They are usually inked on lower back, ankles, arms, upper back, lower stomach and shoulder blade. Some add a touch of tribal art, Celtic, Gothic and even Irish while some choose the cartoon version of the fairy tattoos.

Fairy tattoos can be regarded as symbols of youthful innocence and a desire to retain a child-like imagination, wonder and awe. They can also represent a woman as being free-spirited and naughty in certain ways. They can also portray their nurturing and feminine side with fairies being naturally sweet and delicate. They exhibit an aura of sexiness and innocence at the same time; it can represent a realm of fantasy as an escape from the reality world. Whatever fairy tattoos mean to a woman, they are just so cute and plain pretty making it one of the most magical and fab designs of all time.

Halloween Costumes - Ideas For You

Halloween is around the corner and you are looking for Halloween costumes. Or could it be sexy costumes? Then again, Halloween is not the only time that you can be looking out for costumes, you could be looking for say, Christmas costumes. The point is, costumes add fun to the festivities so why not?

When it comes to Halloween costumes, the choices are just about endless. Here are some costume ideas for you:
1. Pirate costumes
2. Maid costumes
3. Couples' costumes
4. Fairy costumes
5. Gangster costumes

That is really a limited list, but it is just to whet your appetite. Find where your choices are unlimited when you go online, and you will see an image for every costume. After all, how can you purchase costumes if you can't see them.

There is almost nothing that you can imagine, that you cannot find being sold on the net. You can decide while you are browsing, which character you want to take on. At any rate, you will have plenty of ideas after browsing, unless you are fussy. But then, at the variety of choices that you can find, you can be fussy and still find what you want.

Even if you are looking for sexy costumes, your choices are hardly limited. Many of the costumes are in fact, sexy. The question is, how sexy you want to appear. Some costumes are so sexy that they had better be reserved for the bedroom. These are usually two-piece (at least) costumes that are in the style of bikini. But these are even sexier, as they are often lined with faux fur, and worst, some even have slits. Can you imagine (bust) cups with slits? Sometimes, it is the panties that come with slits.

When it comes to Christmas costumes, the choices are obviously not as many as the Halloween costumes, but of course, this is understandable. Here are some Christmas costumes that you can find:
1. Santa suits
2. Santa's helper costumes
3. Elves costumes

Should you be on the plus side, don't worry. Just search for adult plus size costumes at either the sellers' sites or at Google itself (the search bar). You may have less choices than your counterpart, but maybe you just need to browse at more sites to get what you need.

But what really matters most when it comes to dressing up is your spirit. In other words, your personality matters; it is the one that shines through regardless of costume. Sure, the costume may aid you in a big part, but nothing beats your personality. So be sure to set yourself up for fun, and others will feel the vibes from you.

When it comes to creativity, even the sky is not the limit these days, to exaggerate. Maybe you want to wear a really perky skirt. Better yet, you long for the good old days gone by. Maybe what you have in mind are poodle skirts.

These poodle skirts really remind one of femininity and are actually pretty. The magic lies mainly in the skirt, which has such flair, you had better be careful when you spin in one! There may be a shadow print of a poodle on your skirt too, along with some musical notes for instance. These skirts go so well with thick belts, and short sleeves. Why not put on a scarf too, tied round your neck. The entire ensemble is really reminiscent of the 50's and very pretty at that.

There are sites that sell nothing but costumes and accessories of that era. For poodle skirts, just choose the one which combination of colors appeal to you. In fact, there are youth sizes too. Now all you have to do is to practice your twirls to some music of that era.

You can complement your outfit with accessories such as cat-eye glasses, saddle shoes and jewelry of that era, such as rhinestone. Again, you are not limited to adult sizes, if you are looking about for your kids. There are toddler saddle shoes for instance. Cat-eye glasses for you? Choose your colors.

The cinch belts are lovely too, what with deep pink, light pink, peach, turquoise or royal blue, etc. There are cinch belts with polka dots as well, again, in different colors for you to choose from.

Choosing Halloween Costumes Young Children Will Love

Halloween costumes are one of the most important parts of Halloween for young children. They love being able to dress up as a fantasy character and to walk around the streets of their neighborhood collecting goodies in their trick or treat bags. This is really exciting for them.

It is very noticeable, by the age of two, sometimes even younger, that boys and girls will start to prefer the stereotypical costumes. Boys want to be brave, fierce or scary, favoring knights, pirates, monsters and superheroes and girls will be drawn to the pretty, cute and sweet costumes such as princesses, strawberry shortcake characters or flower fairy costumes.

From a parents point of view, you can indulge your own childhood fantasies with your baby dressing them as you wish, in furry bear, monkey, ladybugs or cute and funny costumes, but come the age of eighteen months plus, you will start to see these preferences emerge and with it their resistance to your choice.

This is due to a number of factors such as the media, advertising, TV, movies, books, friends and parental influence. Genetics plays a part too, but whatever the reason, this is a force to be reckoned with and almost impossible to avoid.

Trying to persuade your stubborn single minded two year old daughter into wearing funny face pumpkin outfits when she really wants to be wearing pink flower fairy costumes or Cinderella ballgowns is a stress producing recipe for a Halloween disaster.

It is much better to buy an 'evergreen' Halloween outfit suitable for a boy or girl that they will love to wear. You can either ask them outright what do they want to dress up as or show them a picture of some costumes first. This is not guaranteed to be a perfect solution by any means, as children can be very fickle with their choices, but at least you will be on the right track.

For little boys, Superman, Batman or a current movie hero is a good start and for little girls any of the Disney Princesses or pretty colored tinkerbell flower fairy costumes will usually be happily accepted. If you are thinking 'well, that's not very original or unusual!' then of course you are quite right, but there is a good reason why these sell so well every year and that is because these costumes are what children really want.

Halloween is an occasion that should be fun for everyone. By keeping your small child in a good mood, with little effort of your part, it will avoid any Halloween stress and enable Mom and Dad to concentrate on their costumes and hopefully thoroughly enjoy themselves as well!

Love is a Fairy Tale - The Most Popular Hollywood Divorces Ever

True love is something that many people consider elusive. Because of this unavoidable fact, many people search their lives for the partner they will eventually come to marry and spend the rest of their lives with. But alas in real life, even something as pure and beautiful as true love rarely lasts a lifetime. Many things can rock a marriage such as infidelity, financial problems, incompatibility and purely getting sick of one another.

But if in the everyday, ordinary setting of our life as we know it, love and marriage can prove to be sticky things to hold on to, what more in the glitz and glamor world of Hollywood celebrities? Not only is temptation all around, but life as a celebrity can really take its toll on relationships. And if you needed some reinforcement that true love never lasts forever then here are a few more picture perfect motivations from the Barbie and Ken world of Hollywood:

- Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman: They were Hollywood's power couple of the last decade. Together they were an unstoppable acting and attention-generating machine that we thought would last forever as they hurdled obstacle after obstacle. It didn't hurt that they looked so gorgeous together. But after 10 years of marriage, divergent careers would force this pair apart. They are now married again, to different partners though they insist they have nothing but genuine respect for each other.
- Bruce Willis and Demi Moore: Yes, it's a fact that even the long Hollywood marriages with kids can and do end in splitsville. But if you're just going your separate ways, best to do it like Bruce Willis and Demi Moore. A couple for 13 years and with 3 kids to show for it, they remain on very good terms, with Bruce even going to Demi's wedding. Now that's class.
- Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson: OK, so in retrospect nobody really thought that this pairing would really go the extra mile. But there's something about a couple that stars in their very own show called 'The Newlyweds' and make you feel like Einstein every time they talk that wants you to root for their staying together. But alas, 4 years later, the inevitable happened and we are left with dreams of what could have been.

How to See Fairies - 10 Ways to Attract Fairies Into Your Life!

I have written a lot about fairies, but the one thing people always ask me is how do I see fairies? Fairies exist on the astral plane and although they are present in our world, it is not always possible to see them physically. However, it is possible to learn how to see fairies by using basic psychic skills and meditation.

Develop your Psychic Skills to See Fairies

Psychic ability is made up of four clairs:


Clairvoyance (clear seeing)
Clairaudience (clear hearing)
Clairsentience (clear feeling)
Claircognizance (clear knowing)

By recognizing your primary psychic senses and learning how to communicate with spirit realms, you will be able to sense when fairies are around, and maybe even see them.

Ten Ways to Attract Fairies into Your Life


Create a fairy garden
Leave offerings to the fairies in the house or garden
Look after local wildlife
Tend plants and trees
Clear up litter
Create a fairy altar
Garden organically
Meditate in the garden, specifically opening up to the fairy realm
Dedicate a craft to them, such a baking them bread, making a trinket or playing them music
Talk to the flowers

Use Patience and Respect to See Fairies

Fairies are wary of humans because of what we have done collectively to harm the planet. So consequently, it takes time and effort to gain their trust. If you can show that you are kind and loving towards the planet, looking after nature with unconditional love, the fairies will soon make themselves known. If you truly want to know how to see fairies, you need to follow your heart!

The New Retirement - Fairy Tale Or Nightmare

A major financial services company recently conducted a survey and found as many as two-thirds of retirees are dissatisfied with their retirement life. How can that be? This finding was true regardless of their financial situation.

People have worked hard their whole life to reach a point where they are free to do what they want without anyone making demands on their time or energy. Shouldn't this be the happiest time of their lives?

People who haven't engaged in any planning about their life before retiring follow an interesting pattern. The first days and weeks of retirement are often approached as the vacation they always dreamed about. They get to sleep in as late as they want, leisurely read the paper over a steaming cup of coffee.

The days maybe filled with catching up on small projects around the house that they put on hold. Cleaning out closets, organizing photos, and completing minor home repairs top many people's list.

Spending time with children, grandchildren and friends also becomes a priority. Sports, such as golf can now be enjoyed more often. Trips are planned and taken.

Sometime, usually in month three or four of retirement, a thought trickle's into the mind that is faintly restless and uneasy. It might sound something like, "Is this all there is?" The days may be harder to fill on one hand, or there are so many things to do, there is little time to enjoy the activities.

In the worst case scenario, people become depressed, isolate and spend their time puttering around the house and watching television. Other's fill their days with tasks and activities, but lack any true sense of joy or engagement.

The boomer generation watched their parents and grandparents go through retirement with varying degrees of success and do not want to follow in their footsteps. They understand that twenty or thirty years can be a long time to only play golf or spend with leisure activities.

It is important to remember retirement is not an extended vacation. Learning how to play again and engaging in leisure activities is a critical component of a successful retirement. Neither leisure activities not living solely for children and grandchildren is enough to make this a satisfying time.

Psychologists now know retirement is a significant time in adult development. There is the opportunity to grow, seek out new challenges and engage in meaningful activities. Retirement satisfaction will not happen on its own. Just like any other worthwhile endeavor, it requires thought, planning and effort.

Retirement can be a time to rekindle old dreams and discover new ones. It can be a time to have daring adventures, take new risks, and make a difference in the world. There are unlimited options to be explored and experienced. Knowing who you are and creating a vision for your new life will allow you to start the journey prepared and with a fresh perspective.

How to Clean Your Fairy Wings

Fairy wings are a fun costume addition for your little girl but I am sure not all girls are the cleanest when it comes to party time. Generally your fairy wings are going to be a delicate costume piece and you will want to use care when cleaning them. If treated properly your fairy wings will give your little princess years of fun and enjoyment. here are some tips you can use to clean your set of fairy wings while keeping them in top condition for a longer life. Let's first look at the construction for the fairy wings so you understand clearly what materials you are dealing with. Most of the time fairy wings are made out of the same material as nylons or tights. This material as you know is prone to runs and will tear easily. There are different qualities of course of this material as with any material but no matter what quality yours are made of you will still want to take care in their treatment. The fairy wings are often joined in the middle before the tight material is placed on the wires. They will be wired or taped together where the formed wires are joined. The only "durable" part of your fairy wings will be the wire around the edge and perhaps the material covering the joint.

Let's start first with a few of the things you should avoid:

Never put fairy wings in the clothes washer. This may be a no brainer for you but I thought it would be good to put in just in case...
Never use a wire brush or stiff cleaning brush as the bristles may damage your wings.
Never use bleach on your fairy wings
keep wings away from extreme heat or fire

Okay, now that we have that out of the way let's talk about things you can do to actually keep the wings in good shape:

Warm water is your friend in most cases. Use warm water and if needed gentle soap to clean most soil from your fairy wings. of course we all know that you use cold water for blood but I am going to wager that if you need to clean blood out of your wings...that probably is not your greatest worry.

Use a soft cloth to assist in removing cake or icing or other food or items that may get on your wings.

If you have a sprayer in your sink this is a great way to clean your wings. With the sprayer you will be able to clear away the cup cake chinks and bring your wings back to life.
Use a dish towel to pat dry after you have washed your wings and then let air dry.

I would recommend you also spray your wings with scotch guard or similar protecting spray once you receive them to help keep them from staining. A small amount of prevention can save you the headache of needing to apply any cleaning techniques. So go ahead and enjoy your fairy wings for whatever the occasion and rest assured that now you know some tips that will help you keep them clean and lasting for years to come.

Creating a Magical Fairy Garden With Garden Fairy Statues and the Right Plant Selection

Garden fairy statues are one of my favorites in the world of garden statues, and for good reason... They are cute and beautiful and they really enhance your flower garden.  Here are some of the flowers that will give you the best results in creating a magical flower garden.

When you are using whimsical and mythical garden sculptures you pretty much need to go with either very formal gardens (think English gardens) or very informal gardens (think cottage gardens).   If  you are using dragons, griffins, or gargoyles in your design than formal is the way to go.  But for fairies, informal gardens will be your best bet.

Many people think of an informal garden as an overgrown mess, but that doesn't have to be the case at all.  To get a neat look, you just need to choose the right plants for your fairies to find a home.

Of course, I do have favorite plants for incorporating into a magical fairy garden.  They include roses, climbers, and cottage perennials.  When it comes to climbing plants, clematis top my list.   You can do clematis in two different ways.  The first way is to simply allow the clematis to climb up your fence.  This works very well if you use several different types of clematis, so that it blooms all season. Use fairy statues that can attach to your fence and peak from between the plants.  The second way is to use a single plant on a garden obelisk.    This plant can them become the centerpiece of your garden.

There is almost no other plant that can beat the impact of a rose.  I am not talking about hard to grow florist tea roses here, but rather the kind that your grandmother may have had in her garden.  I recommend doing roses in a bed by themselves as they don't like competition.  The newer varieties look great, bloom long, and are disease resistant.  The best part is that roses are a natural match to fairies.

My other favorite type of flower to use with garden fairy statues is a group of garden perennials.  These combine very well with clematis and if you plan right, you will have blooms all season.  When you are choosing perennial flowers for your bed be sure to buy for your climate and sunlight.  Your fairy garden statues will look right at home in a bed like this.

Using garden fairy sautes will bring a sense of whimsy and magic to your garden.  They will brighten up your home and make you smile.

The Traditional Prepation of Absinthe

This video demonstrates the traditional method of preparing Absinthe. 1.2 ounces of Absinthe to 3 to 5 parts ice water depending on one's taste and/or container size. Sugar is optional. A sugar holder (Absinthe Spoon) is use to hold the sugar while it dissolves under a slow drip of ice water. Water then drips on the sugar which drips into the Absinthe below. The traditional method takes about 1.5 minutes to complete. This video has been edited for time. A word on "flaming": Lighting Absinthe on fire is dangerous and should never be done. Furthermore, it destroys the essential oils that give Absinthe's unique timeless taste. Please enjoy responsibly! This Absinthe Fountain and Set: The set you see in the video can be purchased at www.lamaisondabsinthe.com or in the store La Maison d'Absinthe - New Orleans, La in the French Quarter, 823 Royal St. 70116 The Green Fairy was here...

Hottest Fairy Tattoo Designs For Women

Fairies are legendary creatures being featured in mythologies of several countries. By definition, fairies are supernatural, metaphysical and preternatural. Sometimes, fairies are winged creatures living in the forest or woodland. In the movie Peter Pan, Tinker Bell is a good example of these creatures. However myth will always be myth and many people don't believe in fairies. They're present in this world but not as real. Instead, they can be as tattoos. In this generation, fairies are said to be the hottest tattoo designs for women.

Usually, stars and flowers are common designs seen in many women. But since these are popular designs, redundancy will not be avoided. Although, there are huge options for stars and flowers, it's not impossible to get a design that someone is already using. So instead of enjoying your tattoo, you will be disappointed because it's no longer unique. It doesn't matter how popular tattoo design is. What's important when getting tattoo is a unique design that you can be proud of.

Fairies

Meanwhile, we also have fairy tattoo designs for women. These designs featured unique images that everyone can surely love. As a beginner, getting a fairy tattoo is an ideal option to avoid redundancy among designs. Fairy designs are available in different variations. From simple, trendy, down to cool designs, one can assure 100 percent satisfaction to getting these designs.

Customized fairy tattoos

To make fairy tattoo designs for women more attractive, artists are now making different experiments regarding the color, sizes and styles. As usual, woodland is the place where fairies lived. And if you're a nature lover, forest fairies can be inked to your back. Or maybe if you're always exposing your foot to the public, you can have fairy as a cute accessory to your foot.

Tribal fairy tattoos

On the other hand, tribal fairy designs are also great options for women who want to look sexier. Tribal designs are quite different from the common fairy designs. These featured dark colors like black blue, purple, brown and gray, although the entry of other colors is also allowed. Tribal designs for women comprise complex lines, curves, waves and other difficult shapes that only a professional tattoo artist can do.

Fairies symbolize different things such as love, strength, death and rejection. Among tattoo designs for women, fairy tattoo has the lesser designs. Yet, when it comes to uniqueness fairy tattoos have great value teens and young women. If you think you're shy of telling all your friends that you them, then getting a fairy tattoo can be a great way for them to recognize your words.

Aside from being a great form of art, fairy tattoo is a great thing to express one's personality and message to the world. However, before getting tattooed, one should understand that tattoos are permanent body accessories. Just to avoid regrets in the future, choose the design you think is right.

Basically these fairy tattoos are no different from other tattoos. Alteration of a basic fairy is also possible in various ways. Here are just a few of the things you can do with your own tattoo design.

A cute version is another version of a fairy tattoo. By different version I mean about the positioning of the fairy and the expression on the face. The actual design of the cuter version of fairy tattoo is made to look the design sexy, feminine and shy. There are numerous examples like the one which have long legs wearing a short little skirt will produce a different impression than the fairy that is shy and is hiding her face. Therefore to get a stupendous fairy tattoo spend some time how your fairy is to pose and about her expression of the face. It is you who will decide that you want to reflect your shy nature or are open to show your sexy side by the medium of cute tattoo designs.

Nature can never be avoided. It has been supposed that all fairies live in beautiful natural surroundings along with other woodland creatures. So you can select a natural fairy design in your tattoo. Of course this narrates a very bold statement. These mystical and mysterious designs depend upon the placement of the elements of the design and yes on the colours used. For example suppose a natural ambience is full of twinkling stars and fog. Then this appearance looks more magical than the natural environment full of trees.

Butterfly fairy mix can also work well like other tattoos. Just visualize one: A cute fairy sitting on top of a magical mushroom and a beautiful butterfly landing on her hand. You can call this as a fairy with butterfly wings.

Meczûp - Theremin Performance / 29Jan2010 / Dunia

I am the green Fairy My robe is the color of despair I have nothing in common with the fairies of the past What I need is blood, red and hot The palpitating flesh of my victims Alone, I will kill France, the present is dead Long live the future... But me, I kill the future and in family I destroy The love of country, courage, honor I am the purveyor of hell, penitentiaries, hospitals Who am I finally? I am the instigator of crime I am ruin and sorrow I am shame I am dishonor I am death I am absinthe

A Fairy Tale Wedding With Unique Wedding Favors

Alas the day has finally come. You have gone your entire life wondering what this precise moment would feel like. Your special someone drops to one knee and asks you to be their one and only for all time. You nod your head and fight back tears of joy while wrapping your arms ever so tightly around your soul mate. Time seems to come to an abrupt stop, and you are so overjoyed that you feel as thought you will burst with happiness. Imagine the reaction from your friends and family when you share your joyous news with them. This is just the first step in the direction of your new life; your happily ever after. The only thing left for you to do now is to plan your beautiful event out right down to the finest detail.

Now every bride-to-be wants their wedding to be unique. You wouldn't want to have the same decor or dresses as your friends had at their wedding or your siblings at theirs. You also wouldn't want the same wedding favors either. Just as every bride dreams of looking like a princess on her big day, she also dreams about having a wedding that is so memorable that people will talk about it for all of their days. This is where the wedding favors come in to play. Imagine having unique wedding favors for all of your guests to enjoy and to keep as memorabilia. Everything is to match perfectly, the colors as well as the themes.

You picture yourself walking down the isle in a beautiful gown with your family and friends standing in approval. You feel as though you are the only woman in the world that matters in this moment. Time eludes you and you feel as though your heart is going to flutter right out of your chest. As your vows are to be read, you begin to look deep into your soul mates eyes and yearn to hear them utter those sacred two words which means the world to you. Those words being simply, "I do".Every thing right down to the tears which will be shed at your holy union is guaranteed to be perfect.

It is quite easy to imagine isn't it? That is because one day it will become a reality and not just a fairy tale. The only limits when it comes to your special day happen to be those in which you set yourself. As hard as it can be sometimes to believe, some fairy tales are true. The only thing which is required to turn a dream into reality is both determination and planning. So long as you keep your mind set on your goal then you will one day accomplish it. Many women whom plan their own weddings sometimes feel overwhelmed at all of the planning which goes into it. This is why many seek out wedding planners to help in their expenditures and planning processes.

Nevertheless, regardless of who plans your wedding, be sure to make it unique and all your own. Do not be afraid to say "Hey I want unique wedding favors", or to even pick out your own specific wedding favors, flowers, and even decor. Always be certain to live up to that world famous saying "Carpe Dieum", and when it comes to your wedding day remember to seize your day.

The Missing Link Between Fairy Tales and Bridal Shower Favors

Do you remember as a small child, watching The Little Mermaid or even Beauty and the Beast? As enchanting as these childhood movies were and still are, they had some familiarities. Everyone knows that the Little Mermaid finds love, and of all places it is not under the sea, just like the main character in Beauty and the Beast.

Both of the main characters in these movies meet their very own personal prince charming. Now you know how the plots play out, they fall into forbidden love of sorts, and get married. Now since there are weddings in these two films, how come we never see any bridal shower favors or wedding shower favors? Were these two strikingly and breathtakingly beautiful princesses deprived of a bridal shower? It seems as though old Walt Disney over looked a couple of things while putting these films together.

With Mrs. Tea Pot and Sebastian's personalities alone, one would normally conclude that surely no stone was left unturned when it came to the timing and planning of the weddings. With movie characters so full of life and energy how could they possibly leave out a bridal shower for their key princesses? I suppose this is not something that children see, or rather don't see in these films. This is because as we grow older we tend to pay closer attention to the truths in film. I can honestly not think of one single children's film that has a wedding in it, that actually shows a bridal shower or even mentions one.

Surely if the old philosophy "life imitates art" is true then they should defiantly include something as simple as a bridal shower. I personally can not imagine how something as simple and yet monumental as a bridal shower, was completely left out by the greatest movie makers in all of history. As a child however, I simply did not pay attention to the detail, which is the reason why this little fact did not bother me back then. It is not so much that it bothers me or irritates me now in my adult years, but rather it irritates me by the fact that a company so akin to detail, overlooks and disregards an important one when it comes to fairy tale weddings.

It is not just the bridal showers which they missed. How many films from your childhood that had weddings in them also had bachelor parties in them? I'll tell you how many, absolutely none! The closest any of us as children ever got to see to bridal or bachelor parties, was in the old Popeye cartoons. Yup that's right, do you remember Olive being showered with gifts in the episode where Popeye proposed to her? Or how about in that same episode Popeye goes to a boxing match with his friends. These are not actually bachelor or bridal parties and showers; however they are as close as we ever got to seeing them as children.

If you could create your own cartoon with weddings with both bridal showers and bachelor parties in them, how would you go about doing it? Would you make these parties as fairytale like and majestic as the weddings themselves, or would you hint about them and not actually portray them like the Popeye cartoon did? I suppose it is true that some things are to be left to the imagination, especially when it comes to these pre wedding celebrations in childhood films.

Breathless expectation of angels, fairies, full moon and Fantasy Art of Exotic Women

I spoke with a mirror
Hope for some new vision
uncontrolled explosion
glorious visit from a mentor
Music by me.
But today ...
I do not feel a thing.
No secret friend
only a few images
Fantasy Art of Exotic Women
form photography female
Online
wait for the next fairy fantasy.

Mirror placed close to my face
I had to look away
It was a sorry display
Feeling as good as anything.
MyEyes that once burned with tears
Searches for the pleasure of beautiful designs
left a regrettable sign of ice.
I had hoped
anyone catch me
Days with no color at all
you breathless exotic.

I had the opportunity to build a path
along a line of light
The moon had gone hunting
an area of the stars in flight
and meanwhile the sun stopped shining
in honor of internal images
said banners
Prayers for my pathetic
tonone
only the melody of the night.
The words of a wounded soldier
It occurred
and so
I have those containers from the stars
removed.

Sacrifice your name
for honor
Line the box with old songs
and could tell all the angels
Hate is a very elaborate ceiling.
But its easy to package
all right
instinctively.

And the rhythm of holiness
took a break
consciousness
or just a fad
a list of silly rules
aConfessions of absence.

It 'can not see the angel
fatigue in my eye
before coming down?
You can not see the door open
or courage
which, when inspected closely
was dissolved?
It 'may not have been
their open wounds
female forms depicted
unattended erotic pleasures
Showing Mine
instead?

And out of this room
Flower Fairies simple race against
Things could not understand
exoticPotential
spun glass figurines
small statues of grace
acting out directions.

Despite '
Void, others confess
Inspection time
freedom it
is impressive.
Pause
reflexive
Tell me
who and where and why
tools are still useful
knocking on doors
and celebrate their rebellion.
Fantasy art
This exotic woman professed
intact
are just waiting for another moon.
