Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there was a magical forest known as the Enchanted Forest. This forest was home to all sorts of mystical creatures and breathtaking wonders. It was said that anyone who entered the Enchanted Forest would be granted a single wish, but only if they truly believed in the magic of the place.
One sunny morning, a young girl named Lily ventured into the Enchanted Forest. She had heard tales of its wonders and was eager to experience its magic for herself. As she walked through the forest, she marveled at the vibrant flowers, sparkling streams, and the melodious songs of birds.
As Lily wandered deeper into the forest, she came across a peculiar creature—a tiny, winged fairy named Willow. Willow had shimmering wings and a mischievous smile.
"Welcome, young adventurer," Willow greeted Lily. "What brings you to the Enchanted Forest?"
Lily's eyes widened with excitement. "I've heard that this forest grants wishes. Is that true?"
Willow nodded. "Indeed, it is. But remember, only those who truly believe can have their wishes granted. Do you believe in the magic of this place?"
Lily hesitated for a moment, her mind filled with doubts. But then she thought of all the wonders she had seen in the Enchanted Forest—the flowers that bloomed against all odds, the streams that seemed to sing their own songs, and the creatures that spoke with wisdom. She took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I believe."
Willow smiled warmly. "Very well, then. Close your eyes, make a wish, and hold it in your heart."
Lily closed her eyes tightly, and with all her might, she wished for happiness and joy to fill the lives of everyone she loved. She felt a tingling sensation spread through her body as her wish was released into the forest.
When Lily opened her eyes, she found herself standing in a clearing bathed in golden sunlight. Surrounding her were her family and friends, all smiling and laughing together. Lily's heart swelled with happiness as she realized her wish had come true.
From that day forward, Lily cherished the magic of the Enchanted Forest and shared its wonders with others. She knew that belief and the power of one's heart could truly make dreams come alive.
And so, the Enchanted Forest continued to weave its magic, granting wishes to those who dared to believe, and spreading joy and happiness throughout the land.
The end.
I hope you enjoyed the story! Let me know if you'd like to hear another one.

Book Review: "The Queen" by Andrew Morton
You're probably wondering why on earth I would read this book. It was free and it was a fair length. That was basically it at first. But another reason is because I enjoyed the show The Crown and so, it only makes sense to read a book that goes through separating facts from fictions - and to be fair, there aren't a lot of fictions about the show it seems. From the birth of the little princess and the way in which her father was reluctantly to become the king, all the way to meeting and marrying the veteran prince, Duke of Edinburgh and even down to the death of her father, queendom and beyond, this book actually gives us a lot about a woman who basically embodied the greatness and modernisation of the British 20th Century.
