Reading the book “The Pisces” by Melissa Broder where a heartbroken girl falls in love with a merman inspired my fantasy of being the bride of the sea. So I created the fitting look. The sea creatures make the most stunning jewellery: Seastars and pearls beat diamonds, don’t you agree?
Nearly an endless number of mystical stories are connected to the sea: They tell us of irresistible sirens, brave mermaids and fishes the size we can’t even imagine hiding in the unknown depths. We all grew up with the story of Ariel who had to lose her voice in order to find true love. I guess many of us girls (including myself) are still dreaming of stories like this secretly.
My whole life, occupying my mind with fantastic stories has been like a mini escape from reality. A little trip to different worlds I could enjoy no matter where I was and no matter what happened around me. Especially in difficult times like now I always find this helpful and relaxing.
It’s like dreaming but while being awake. Some people might say this is no behaviour for grown-ups, I say don’t ever lose your ability to dream of fairy tales! Keep your mind open, because it makes your universe richer and fuller. Be a little bit like Sheherazade and never end your stories.
There is still enough time to go back to reality, do your job, clean your place and cook dinner, even for the biggest dreamer. So stay save and keep dreaming of the sea and life on Mars!
