Talking To Fairies

Can I talk to a fairy right now?
Ophelia Fey says -- Yes, Marifer, you can talk to fairies right now. Especially if you are in a place where they might be around. Like a garden, forest, beautiful park, or by the water.
You can talk to us in whispers or out loud. (But not too loudly. That may scare us). It seems humans like asking fairies for something. Like granting a wish or doing some kind of magic for them. But why should we. We would have no reason to, unless we have come to know you and trust and like you.
So when you talk to a fairy or want to make friends with a fairy, think of how you would make friends with anyone. You would take interest in them. See what you can do for them. You could, for instance, help take care of nature, which is very important to us, since we live in it and have the job of taking care of it. You would put your friend's needs before your own in many instances. It is the same with us. When we see that a person is caring, we will more easily respond to them.
So when you talk to us, keep these things in mind. Don't just ask us for wishes and magic and doing things for you. Think also of what you can do for us. And do it.
