When Fireflies Dance.

When I was a little girl, I used to catch fireflies in my hand. I’d hold them there with all my might, fearful their magic might soon slip away.

But then one day, I let my hand extend. And, to my surprise, the firefly remained.

So, proud to share her evening ‘glow’ – this particle of moonbeam consigned to earthly wonder.

She dance a bit, the Peruvian Waltz – then flitted away before taking a gentleman’s hand.

We’re mistaken to think that we must ‘capture’ our peace; for the marvels of this earth exist for those willing to believe.

With love…

Namaste ❤️

On Fireflies Carrying Their Light to the Moon.

I remember once watching a meteor shower with my Dad. “Like wilds horses,” he said. “across the heavens.”

To this day, I can’t help but to see those stallions galloping towards freedom – I dare say, a little imagination goes a long, long way.

It’s those stories, now – wouldn’t you say? Those little pockets of inspired ingenuity which provide a little more ‘color’ to life’s palette.

“Imagination,” shares author, Ray Bradbury “should be the center of your life.”

Come to think of it, I recall yet another story about the fireflies carrying their light to the moon. “If you catch them, how will we ever find our way home?”

To this day, I won’t hesitate to knock a mason jar out of a ‘fire’ hunter’s hands.

My goodness, how these stories find us – revealing themselves at a moment when they’re needed most of all.

Reminding us, that our lives are a magical weaving of that which we’ve always dreamed of.

Let your imagination find you today, my loves – for once, let your heart take flight.
