Hidden History Research

“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”

Briar Rose vs Sleeping Beauty

Wiki : The Legend of Briar Rose

My absolute fave Pre-Rafa painter HAS to be Burne-Jones. And I love and adore his series of paintings about this legend of the Briar Rose and Sleeping Knights.

“The threat of war, the hope of peace,
The Kingdoms peril and increase
Sleep on, and bide the latter day
When Fate shall take her chain away.” William Morris

When you UNDERSTAND – go back to the Fairy Tales and really THINK!!!!

Or read C.S Lewis again ?
