"Someone set up the forest so that the children get lost
call it God. Call it the two-headed Grimm.
He planted trees gnarled, irrigated river whose waters give life and death, and wrapped in a veil of mist. Then he hung above the trees, the moon and the North Star because it was necessary that children are lost, but not completely. Then he dropped
aa wolves.
Their mission was simple: they had to worship the moon and play him music as befits the son of the night. Ah! And they also had to eat the children.
unhurriedly. Nothing prevented them devour them at crossroads, children first, then the basket, but not without first fully uncoiled.
Where the devils are trafficking of souls, wolves (and coyotes sometimes) fun to change the direction signs. Then they crossed the forest, dress up and wait, because it's more fun that way. And also because their contract requires them to allow time to reach the hunter and the hunter, the skilled surgeon can open the bellies, to extirpate grandmothers and sew wolves full of stones without the patient feels the slightest embarrassment.
is what God or Grimm headed, not to mention Andersen did not want the children still get lost too. Have they not let the moon and the star lit Polar ? Do they not left the cabinet door closed?
What he sought in fact as sad as it seems, was to help them grow.
If you are not satisfied, go and ask Bettelheim. But you can save yourself the trip: he will tell you so. It will remind you that when you're out of the forest of words your father or your mother had set up around you, just before falling asleep, you thought: "I too can get out front of the wolf. my teddy bear and I give him a lesson. " It was their intent, and in general it worked well since forest and the forest is that children are enfants.Cependant, sometimes it is the wolf that is lost.
He knows so well the shortcuts. He who worships the moon.
It also happens that the moon is playing hide the deepest and to mislead those who follow it. And then, in some cases it happens that children believe they left the forest, grow as anticipated, but in reality they are wrong because they are always lost in the mist. When all this happens, you'd better prepare for the trip of a lifetime. "
