Two girls, far distant from each other loved nature.&nbsp; Visiting the nature gardens always brought them joy.&nbsp; However, both were about to learn you should be careful what you wish for.&nbsp; This girl was visiting another garden, While admiring Little Bird Girl fountain she made the same classic mistake, as she sat back, closed her eyes, and began daydreaming.&nbsp; Not believing in magic, or the magic of the place she was in, she wished for a simpler life, all the while having the garden fountain in the back of her minds eye.&nbsp; Like the other girl, there was a flash, and she suddenly became aware of the stereo sound of running water.&nbsp; Then she realized her perspective had changed, she was now looking at the spot where she had been sitting and it occurred to her that her eyes must be open.&nbsp; Before long it hit her, she was now standing where the statue had been, in the fountain!&nbsp; She was still aware of everything around her, but she couldn't move, speak, or even blink.&nbsp; Like the other girl she could still see, hear, and even feel when, it rained, was sunny, or when birds landed on her.&nbsp; Like the other girl, for a while she counted the days, via sunrises and sunsets, but gave up on that years ago.&nbsp; Now she stands there in the garden, wondering if she will ever be free to move, speak, or do anything of her own free will again.&nbsp; Turned out being a garden statue was not as easy a life as the girls imagined.<br /><br />As always I have no claim to any of the images used to build this composite.&nbsp; Should anyone object or be offended, I will be happy to take the image down.
