And now...tatam...the metamorphosis

It is twenty years ago now, more or less, that we met again, Tossan and I.  Shortly. This time it was inside a saga about the little girl Filippa who died in blood-cancer before her seventh birthday. Tossan was there with her since Filippa was born and also Isidor, a small but very strong and courageous dragon, appeared in her life, some years later. But that is really another story.
                       
However it inspired me to invent this metamorphosis:
My husband is building a catamaran and we have given her the name Tossan, from my story about Filippa.
So...
To develop from a sheer small fairy about two decimeter tall and with the weight  of some grams into a huge catamaran, nine meter wide and fifteen meter long with the weight of some thousand kilos seems to be a rather impossible task for anyone.
But for me it is a play, a metafor, an allegory about life with many philosophical and spiritual reflections and thoughts that will appear here "helter-skelter" (this strange word I found in my dictionary-app)

The catamaran has become sort of a living being with her name and I convert it to a metaphor of a consciousness, a common growing consciousness for a man and a woman, from something very subtle without weight to something very heavy, thrilling and delicious, with slender forms, two masts and two wings... (Wings? Yes, wings, not sails)

Elvs and faeries also have two wings. You see, one common denominator! The faeries are dancing among the plants in nature. The catamaran Tossan will dance on the oceans, delight in the wind. Playfully "swim" among dolphins and whales, plunge herself through storms and waves...

Hmmmm....a pretty good allegory, somewhat "shaky" but the essence for me is that both elves and catamarans are filled up to the border with love, happiness and life-force!
