The MacRae Family Motto: FORTITUDINE, with fortitude, strength of mind that allows one to endure pain, danger or adversity with courage.

A young girl is walking through a meadow when she sees a butterfly impaled upon a thorn. Very carefully she releases it and the butterfly starts to fly away. Then it comes back and changes into a beautiful good fairy. "For your kindness," she tells the little girl, "I will grant you your fondest wish." The little girl thinks for a moment and replies, "I want to be happy." The fairy leans toward her and whispers in her ear and then suddenly vanishes.

As the girl grew, no one in the land was more happy than she. Whenever anyone asked her for the secret of her happiness, she would only smile and say, "I listened to a good fairy."

As she grew quite old, the neighbors were afraid the fabulous secret might die with her. "Tell us, please," they begged, "tell us what the fairy said." The now lovely old lady simply smiled and said, "She told me that everyone, no matter how secure they seemed, had need of me!"

We all need each other.

"Celebrate the earth and sea, each bubbling brook and every tree...
Celebrate the full moon's light, brisk evening air, the stars at night...
Celebrate the clear blue sky, the rising sun, clouds drifting by...
Celebrate another year of living life, of being here."

I am a peaceful Pagan. I may not share your beliefs, but I am not evil. I don't believe in Satan. I can't turn you into a frog or make you fall in love me with a magic potion. I am a mother, a daughter and a sister. I drive a car, have a job, pay my bills and taxes and grocery shop and was a Girl Scout and 9th grade spelling bee champ. I worship the Goddess and the green Earth and all her inhabitants. I will always respect your beliefs and ask only that you let me enjoy the faith I love.

Dandelion G. (363)	THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE GREEN STAR..... I thought this an interesting video. It combines native wisdom from the famous speech of Chief Seattle in 1854 with the musical talent of the band Electric Light Orchestra's song The Whale in combination with the illustrations of the talented Susan Jeffers from the picture book Brother Eagle Sister Sky.
