The girl from the snow

When I woke up on the next day the sound of the blue fairy songs were still resonating somewhere deep in my body. What a great night of sleep! I was feeling as if I had been born again. Could I ever taste such a night of sleep while in the big city? That's something I still do not know the answer. It might even be possible, I'm just miles away from finding how to do it. Or maybe not. Who knows what is coming next in my journey? What secrets would I still discover? It was time to get my stuff and to move on. And that's what I did.
After a few ours of walking suddenly the weather started to get really cold. Really, really cold! I could started seeing even a few flakes of snow falling from the sky. What a beautiful scene! The silence and the whiteness of the forest where making me cry again. What air was that? How can just the air and the cold make me cry? What magical power is this that simply emanates from these lands? It is as if this peaceful wind can contact my soul directly without needing any interpretation from my mind. And how could possibly my mind interpret any of that?
I was moving on. Going deep into the cold and the snow. And there for my surprise, I meet another being. There was someone else over there. I saw a girl. A little white girl, as white as the snow, was sitting down playing with the falling snow. And she was so beautiful. Her movements were so beautiful. She was moving with such an harmony with the winds and the snow. My eyes could barely believe. Why all the creatures from these wild lands are so beautiful? And then she saw me, and said:
Come closer my dear friend. What brings you here to this cold forest?
I couldn't answer that. I couldn't say anything. Not just that I simply didn't know what to say because I didn't know the answer, but also her voice ... that mild loving melody coming from her mouth! She asked the most simple question ever, but her voice was coming not just from her mouth, not just from her body. I don't know, it was as if what she was saying was coming directly from her soul, from heaven, from god itself. I was just paralized. How could I say something? And them she continued:
I see your soul is a bit lost and confused my dear friend. But don't be worried. You are not in the city anymore. Here things work in a different way. You must be new here, and that's why things are not making much sense to you. But soon this air, this fresh air will be party of your being. And that's a experience that will be with you forever. Soon you might not need to see sense in things, to see that they are real.
I could not believe that. I was even more wordless than before. She was even reading my soul. Not just reading but  even speaking to my soul. How was that possible? And her beauty ... her peace ... her love! I couldn't do anything there apart from admiring that being that was in front of me. And then in a good bye mood she stood up an said:
Do not lose your faith my dearest friend. The winds might get even colder, and you might even meet strange evil beings on the way ahead of you. But if you came here, if you started your journey already, is because there is love in you heart. There is hope in your dreams. And there is god in your soul. Simply allow the air to get in contact with them, and all will be fine. When I look to the deepest of your heart then I know that everything is going to be all right. When I look to your beautiful eyes and see how you look at me, then I know that every little thing will be all right. Just keep going my dear friend. You still have a long but nice and beautiful way ahead of you. And I will be always thankful to god that he made me to be  a small tiny part of it. But now I should go. All the best to you.
And then she left. But I couldn't leave. I was absolutely speechless. My mind was speechless. But although I didn't said a word to that beautiful girl, deep down my soul have just had the best conversation I have ever had. What was that? Two souls talking to each other? Just two or the whole of the universe talking to us? Talking through us? I couldn't know anything. I couldn't even think about any of that. I keep still and silent just contemplating and feeling the whole thing. Yes, I was feeling that conversation, I was feeling her voice, I was feeling my soul, I was feeling the whole universe. I sat down in the snow totally speechless for maybe an hour. Then I stood up and realize it was time to go. As she said I still have a long way ahead to go. It was time to move forward into the forest.
