It's own accord
"Some people seem to think
that I began by asking myself how I could say something about
Christianity to children; then fixed on the fairy tale as an instrument;
then collected information about child-psychology and decided what age
group I'd write for; then drew up a list of basic Christian truths and
hammered out "allegories" to embody them. This is all pure moonshine. I
couldn't write in that way at all. Everything began with images; a faun
carrying an umbrella, a queen on a sledge, a magnificent lion. At first
there wasn't anything Christian about them; that element pushed itself
in of its own accord."
~C.S. Lewis~
This was just something I found while reading a book called 'finding God in the land of Narnia' and liked it.
Well Bye,
