One day I was running through the woods.  It felt great, like my lungs were going to burst.  I kept going, never wanting to stop.  Suddenly, I saw something in the flowers move.  It looked like a fairy girl, and she was waving her arms in the air.  I stopped to see what I was looking at.  I was sure it must be the medicine I was taking that was making me see things.  But, there she was, a tiny girl with long hair and big eyes and wings. I asked her what she wanted.  She said, “To be happy.”  I said, “That’s up to you.”  Then, I kept running.
