M & M creations

M&M and Trees are a fine combination, in real-life working and living as much as possible in nature in which we find .. trees.
"As soon as we entered SecondLife, we found the most wonderful Not-Possible-In-RealLife 'parks, gardens, rough nature, fantasy- & fairy and botanical reserves'." says 10 Gooson of M&M
Not long after being here, they bought some land and 10 & Marcthur Goosson decided to keep it as natural as they could.
The wish and process in creating imaginary nature took some time and is still growing. M&M Trees has developed from 10's FlowerShop.
The more sculpted shapes Marcthur creates the more inspiration 10 can find.
Next to real-lifes inspiration she mixes up the two. First pure flowers then plants followed. Not long after; flowerlights, huge complex plants, low-prim flowers Finally the trees, corsages, Bridal-Series and again trees.
M&M wanted to rez all creations and trees need space. Months of hard work followed and it has now found it's final shape.
For a shop the park is huge, it takes time to see it all. All kinds of animals, sounds and 'twinkles' can distract the visitor. The swamp is wet and coulourful here you can find all those tropical delights and such fantastic trees and so much more! Shrubs, small trees, fantasy trees, petal & leaves-furniture, huge trees or just beautifull lights and lanes of trees.
The most central point must be the circle of standing stones this is also where you will find the teleports to other areas.

SLOOP - THE TREE HOUSE

It is quite obvious that the modern Western culture gives us immediate access, almost instantly, to whatever may seem of interest to each one of us. It is also obvious that our attention span is shrinking as fast as our capacity to absorb new information keeps building up.

I dare say this has a price: we don’t have the time to build all that knowledge into a solid subjective structure, an inner house, a solid place, full of surprises, hidden corners, basements and attics and secret passages.
The fleeting contact we establish with all the info we absorb creates in us the false illusion of knowledge.
Those of us who are old enough not to have been cyber kids, can tell the difference.
We are fascinated with everything that’s new and State of the Art technology, but we miss the kind of time we used to spend trying to figure out everything the world has to feeds us.
So we feel our inner self is getting stuffed with knowledge, but it’s not getting deeper, it’s getting thinner.
The Spanish writer Manuel Vincent says that people are afraid to seek refuge within themselves, because that inner construction is “shaky”. So it doesn’t makes us feel safe, but quite the contrary.
And that is a shame, because being able to seek refuge within ourselves is a fantastic relief against adversity.
Like those “cabins” we made under the bed, with blankets and a flashlight.
Or the wonderful tree houses, where we felt safe, masters of the fortress, and open to fantasy.
When we loose our innocence, we loose the safety those tree houses gave us.

“When we stop playing –says Vincent-, we remain unprotected, alone in the wilderness, far from the world of dreams, having to face real enemies”.

Full of hope, he points out that there are privileged human beings that are still capable, no matter what age they are, to build that tree house inside their soul and make themselves strong and invincible against adversity.

There are many ways to do that, as long as we build it
strong and keep in there some strong feelings, some strong knowledge, and keep out aggression and barbarity and inhumanity.
And, as you might have guessed by now… let me tell you: Second Life is one hell of a tree house.
The one that made us feel so strong when we where kids, the one place we felt safe to dream in.

Lets play.

Lets take care of our tree house. It’s a chance to have that magic place
when we are too grown up to go climbing real trees.

Great news for M&M shops

M&M shops are moving!
This means Mysteryland and Mysticland have vanished and will be rebuild in the future.
M&M Shops and M&M Trees are still intact, accessable like you're used to.
The good news is M&M Shops and M&M Trees will also move to a new island, location is unknown for now.
No extreme lag and slow downs, easy walking and rezzing of all sculpted shapes and a smooth connection between the 2 shops without sim-borders.
M&M will keep you informed and SL-Newspaper will have all updated landmarks available, you can't miss it!

Before the great move; Great plots (all 1024 m2) for sale on Montsoreau and Seyanforth
Contact Marcthur and 10 Goosson for more information.
