The Faeries of Gossamer Glen love music and have very diverse tastes. They very often listen to soft and ethereal melodies, but there are times when they prefer to kick up their heels and jam, so please don't be too shocked if this page rocks from time to time! There is always the pause button! Some fav sounds include Tori Amos, Josh Groban, Enya, Celtic Harp, sounds of nature, Blackmore's Night, Jim Boggia, Shauna Burns, Priscilla Hernandez, Freyia, Arlene Faith, IVA, The Gypsy Nomads, QNTAL, The Mary Dream, Gabrielle Angelique. A faerie favorite...
Live the Proof
Music and Lyric: Jim Boggia / Julian Coryell
Let's begin with a fact.
Science tells us there's a pact
made between each action
and something that reacts.
Things that seem out of range
all obey a law of change.
Put thoughts into motion.
Watch things rearrange.
Live the proof.
We can create our circumstance.
Live the proof.
Nothing is ever left to chance.
It's no dream.
We can begin the world anew
Here and now.
Live the proof.
Every thought left unsaid.
Every dream kept in your head.
Every other option you'd rather see instead.
Lift them up set them free.
Go into the world you see
like it's already the way that it should be.
You view the problem like you're stuck inside it.
What if you had power to rectify it?
Would you make the choices to apply it?
Would you try it?
It's no dream
We can begin the world anew
Here and now
Live the Proof

Message from the Faeries regarding comments...
Thank you so much for all of the gorgeous and thoughtful comments that you leave for us. However, Gossamer Glen is located in a remote part of the forest so we are forced to make do with a dial-up connection. As much as we love the pretty animated gifs and glitter graphics that you leave, some of them cause our page to freeze up, therefore we have no choice but to delete them. Please don't take it personally. Lovely images that do nothing but sit and look pretty are always welcome though! Also, if we have not been by to leave a comment on your page, it may not be for the lack of trying. Most likely, it is for the same reason as above. Pages with lots of content, graphics, spinning, moving, falling and glittering items will not load for us. We wish they would, but sadly, they won't. So we apologize if we are unable to visit your page. We will still send you love, light and magical wishes, even if we can't send you comments!
Please note...beginning Feb. 15, 2008, if you have Captcha enabled on your comments we will no longer be able to leave you comments due to our excruciatingly slow dial up connection. The faeries are very sorry but it takes much too long.
Research has shown that people live longer when they are surrounded by people they love. We are beings that thrive in community and it is not healthy to deny ourselves human contact. For people that live alone, even a pet has been shown to increase the life span for as much as five to seven years. Those of us that have blessed with family have been given a gift. They can join you in time of celebration and also in times of tragedy. Having a family to support you as you go through life is of monumental importance. Have a very wonderful weekend,Live life to it's fullest,do something that you have not done before,take a long fresh breath of air and feel life flowing through you'r vaines,and enjoy it,for you are alive,and one of life's precious treasure's! And most of all,you are my friend,and I care about you! With love and respect, Sincerely, John Wolf
Helloooooooooooooooooooooo! *takes deep breath* Welcome Back from your journey into the fantastical, Marchella!! Hope you had a truly magickal time at FaerieCon... I'm really looking forward to hearing all about your travels! ...But for the meantime, be sure to take some time out to recharge your batteries hehe!
Anyways, wishing you a starry night & sunny morn ahead! Missed you, dear friend ^_^
Just because you're grown up, doesn't mean you don't need someone to confide in. In fact, logic dictates that the opposite is true. Life becomes more complex and difficult as we get older. The people that we confide in as adults are very valuable. We usually choose our friends based on common interests that we share. We may have different friends for the variety of activities that we engage in. The important thing is that there is sense of mutual respect, and caring for each other. Smile! Have a wonderful day my dear friend! Peace and love always
wandering lost, tired, need sleep while soft dew grass my head to keep crystal dreams whisper thoughts of fairy magic, fairy brought, breathing deep, breathing slow, visions come in streaming flow I thought this be a faery dell succumbing fast to faery spell one moment capturing space and time feeling eternal, universal rewind, harnessed and seized, if you will, if it please .. ..
