Movie
Review By Lady IndigoFae

Lord of the
Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
Written
by: J.R.R. Tolkien (during the late 1930's to mid 1940"s); Director:
Peter Jackson; Music Composer and Conductor: Howard Shore and Enya
Actors: Elijah Wood (Frodo Baggins), Sir Ian McKellan (Gandalf), Ian
Holm; (Uncle Bilbo), Liv Tyler (Arwen), Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn), Sean
Bean (Boromir), Sean Astin (Samwise), John Rhys-Davies (Gimli), Orlando
Bloom; (Legolas), Billy Boyd (Pippin), & Dominic Monaghan (Merry)

This film is the first episode of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. It, in
my opinion, was based very close with the book with only some unimportant
parts of the story left out, making this a 3 hour movie versus a much
longer one. The summary of this book is about a hobbit (Frodo) who
inherits a Magick Ring from his Uncle Bilbo Baggins who found this ring in
an earlier adventure. This ring isn't an ordinary ring, in fact, it is the
Master ring that rules other magic rings which was forged by the evil
Sauron ages before. Gandalf figures out the rings importance and
realizes it must be destroyed before the evil Sauron can recover it and
destroy the world. Gandalf convinces the young hobbit that he must take
this ring to Sauron's Kingdom Mordor, and throw this ring into the volcano
at Mt. Doom. So accompanied by Gandalf, his best friend, Samwise, two
other hobbits (Pippin and Merry), two humans, an Elf, and a Dwarf they set
out on this dangerous journey.
Peter Jackson's love for this book was truly apparent in this movie. His
work was brilliant, even genius. The New Zealand site chosen to make this
movie, and the two other books, was incredible. The musical score
composed and conducted by Howard Shore and Enya was absolutely enchanting
and the costumes were superb.

I highly recommend this movie to anyone who loves J.R.R. Tolkien's "The
Lord of the Rings". I, myself, have now seen it twice and can't wait
until next December for the second movie (The Fellowship of the Ring) to
once more fill
the screen with beauty, adventure, magic, intrigue and fantasy. I believe
it is suitable for almost everyone, possibly for those of you who have
young children might think about the fact there is some violence and
perhaps not suitable for their sensitive nature...

Poems
Believe
Once upon a time I had dreams of seeing a faerie But while waiting my
doubts grew and I became weary.
Then one day while I was hiking amongst the trees I heard a faint noise
resembling a sneeze.
Looking around, I became mesmerized by a site Of a most vibrant rainbow
color of light
I watched and starred, my
body then froze As I spotted a wee one dancing on her toes
She giggled and said" What were you wishing to see Wasn't it for a
faerie, well here I am, it's me!
And trust in your heart, you'll know what is real You don't have to
have sight, only need to feel
You will be rewarded far more than I can say For if you believe,
you'll receive everyday."

Earth Day 2002
April 22, 1970 marked a day history as the first "Earth
Day". We as faeries and faerie believers have a responsibility and duty
to ourselves and mankind to protect and preserve our natural resources,
our environment, our world. It is our obligation to become aware of these
dangers happening to our lands, forests, mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans
and the air we breathe. It is also equally important that we learn how to
protect and care for our environment. We have been entrusted by a higher
being to keep this beautiful commodity safe and the only way to do this is
for all of us to step up to the plate. This date marks the first day of
"Earth Day but we need to live daily protecting and preserving our earth.
Remember what we do today will affect our families for generations to
come.
- Below I have listed a few things
you can do daily, however, there is so much more information out
there. The web is a good source for activities and you can also
contact your local government, research libraries or check in with
your community centers for information on how you can do your part.
You Can Make A Difference!!!
Here are a few suggestions:
1) Stop using pesticides, you can make your yards green by using
natural products.
2) Did you know that planting basil, chives, mints, marigold and/ or
chrysanthemums are actually insect repelling plants?
3) Use compost, in fact, start your own compost pile. This can be
done either in a small section of your yard or even in garbage
container.
4) Buy your firewood from "downed wood" sources.
5) Use recycled paper products.
6 Stop using chlorine bleach.
7) Buy and use mercury-free rechargeable batteries.
8) Recycle, recycle and recycle.
9) Ride a bike or walk instead of driving when possible.
10) Think when you buy products made from endangered species.

Note
from Marafae, As of May 1, 2002 we are no longer going to send membership
certificates through the mail, They will be strickly done online. 9/11
has caused many of our membership packages to be opened and our new
members to receive packages missing items. There seems to be no other
solution. So it will be handled online, this won't affect the present
members, but will future. The won't get faerie dust unless ordered
separately. But all else will be available. Joining with a friend will
have no discounts unless we have a special, this is due to the costs of
the website and domain name. We hope this won't cause any inconvenience
to anyone. Thanks, Marafae
Hugs, Marafae
