Once upon a time there was a girl about to walk into a dark forest. She could not see what lay ahead. From behind her a blindfold is gently wrapped around her head, covering her eyes. A precious voice whispers in her ear, "trust me to guide you through. I will describe all your surroundings. Come with me. So he takes her hand and she follows into step with him. He describes glorious scenes of beautiful flowers of many colors and how the trees are rich and green. She does not know in reality there are no flowers, but the description is so vivid she believes she even smells their fragrance. The trees are bare with twisted trunks and branches, but she believes they are full of crisp green leaves and believes she hears them shifting in the gentle breeze. He repeats, "trust me, follow me" and she does. She wants to see these beautiful things, but doesn't want to let go of his hand to remove the blindfold and fears his sweet voice will stop describing what is surrounding them and she loves his voice so very much. A slug sticks to her bare feet, leaving slimy tracks in it's path; she asks what it is and he tells her a wet leaf from a bush has fallen and landed on her foot. He reaches down and removes it. She enjoys his touch even if briefly done. They continue deeper and deeper in the forest... (oops, gotta go to class! bye) ...
