Been sad again

When i feel sad I always take a walk around the market square downtown Helsinki.

A bed time story

There was once upon a time a period when all men where noble and all the women were ladies and there was a place where all the dreams come true. A place where frogs can easily speak all short of foreign and strange languages, dogs love waltzing and cats swim butterfly style and make world records.

In that; well let’s call it Dreamland, lived a princess with the most beautiful smile ever, green eyes like small lagoons and beauty that was famous to all the sides and all the kingdoms of Dreamland.

Of course the princess had a name and I nearly forgot to mention it, but you see here we have two major problems. First of all I am too old to remember everything, sometimes I think people should know everything I know and not knowing who the princess is for me is just …unbelievable; and second you never call a princess with her given name, nobody does. You call a princess the Beautiful Princess or Your Colorful royal Princess and that’s it!!!

The whole kingdom was proud for her beauty and her kindness and they used to celebrate it everyday by letting her choose the color. This is a very important job in the Dreamland and our Beautiful Princess is taking it very, very seriously. So every night before she goes to sleep; and that happens always sometime after the elves start singing in the forest and the small pink elephants go to the lakes for their evening swim, sometime around nine our time; the Minister of Color is coming to take his orders for the next day.

The Beautiful Princess after a long thinking looks at his ears, the Minister of color has big ears and for this reason he is very famous in the entire kingdom and then she would say: Pink! Or: Blue! Or: Green. And that was it, the next day all the kingdom would wear pink, blue or green.

Here we have to note two things, first that pink was her favorite color so most of the days, lets say 360 days of the 365 days a year the whole kingdom was wearing pink. And the second was these evening! Some evenings our Beautiful Princess was angry, she didn’t know exactly why she was angry but after all she was THE BEAUTIFUL PRINCESSS and she didn’t have to explain everything to everybody! These nights she would take her favorite strawberry yogurt and sit on her table without speaking to anybody.

These were very difficult nights for the poor Minister of color. He had to stand in the corner moving his ears which is a very funny picture and it usually makes the Beautiful Princess smile and then tells him the color. I think that sometime she did it on purpose just to see the poor rabbit moving his ears. Oh I forgot again to tell you that the poor Minister of color is a rabbit, always wearing a long coat and a small bone-tie with stripes. The color of the bone-tie depended on the day!

And this is when she fell asleep, so it continues another day!!!
