' Filipe Can A Castle, A House Be In Love?
Can a castle, a palace, a mansion or simply a house be in love? Can it want only good things, prosperity and happiness for someone or something? Can it desire to be close, just next to and participate in what's happening to the other being?

So, can it? Why not? Just because it has no living arms to hug and no mouth to pronounce its feeling? Or maybe, because it can't move of its foundation to go for a walk in the moonlight with the object of her feeling? Or his feeling?

Well, this is a story of a castle, a she, who loved, who was in love. It's a story how without hugging and kissing or moving one can love. And may be, just may be, even, be loved?

[Enamora was in love with the lake, with the forest and with the family of The Blakes.

Filipe Goes Exploring
[It is possibly the start of the book. Filipe, Fil]
'Mom,' he called standing in the open door 'I'm going for a longer walk'
'OK,' answered his mother from somewhere in the house 'I assume you're going into the forest as always? Don't get lost!'
'I won't. I never do. And besides, I took a sandwich and some water with me. See you in the evening!' he replied closing the door behind him.

Filipe, for that was his name, lived in a village at the end of the road. From all around, an ancient forest surrounded his village with only one road connecting it to the rest of the world the village new. Of course, there were a few smaller roads crisscrossing throughout the farmland that surrounded the houses and farms, some of them even entering the forest, but they all sooner or later turned back to come out into the village or onto the nearby fields. And Odoni knew all of them. He loved to spend most of the time that he had available, walking and exploring the roads, the smaller the better even the

In the opposite direction that also seemed to lead straight toward the middle of the forest. And that was the direction he chose. He didn't intend to go to deep into the forest and he knew that after couple miles the road would veer to the right and come back onto the southern ends of the village farmlands. It was not that he was afraid of the forest, for he walked thru its outskirts almost every day, but why would he walk far away from the village, from his village, where he was born and spent all his young life? The village, and occasionally the town down the road, were his world. In all of its richness, with all memories and all plans for the future. [Is Filipe going to ever come back to his village?]. He planned for just another walk like many

    Lais of Marie de France

    • 1041 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Marie begins her collection of lais with the story of Guigemar, a noble knight who is cursed with the task of finding true love to heal a physical injury. This lay introduces two types of love: selfish and selfless. Selfish love is not courtly love. It lacks devotion and true loyalty. It lacks suffering and self-denial. Marie de France portrays this kind of love in the old husband of the woman whom Guigemar loves. The man locks his wife away in an enclosure guarded by a castrated man. By doing this, the husband shows a mean, limited devotion to his wife; perhaps even worse, he limits her ability to experience true love. This kind of love does not last; in fact, the husband is cuckolded when his wife has a year-long affair with Guigemar. He is made a fool, the dupe of love.…

    “What can I say my darling? You are the love of my life, the reason why I smile.” he said, as he held her hands in his. “You, give a whole new purpose to my existence, gifting me the ample joy to wake up every morning with a bright smile on my face.” His hand now draped the back of her neck while the other traced her lips with the back of his other. Her eyes drifted from his eyes to the lips, and he seized the moment to rather savagely kiss her as if tomorrow was on the verge of extinction.…
