Reach for the Stars Excerpt:
It was a gorgeous late summer evening in the Ahway Island animal sanctuary. The sun sank lower and lower, making the grassland appear pink and purple in the fading light. The air was calm and peaceful, and the first twinkling stars were just starting to appear in the dusky sky. Janine Giraffe was out enjoying the beautiful evening with the other little giraffes, prancing around on their long legs, chasing one another and laughing.
In between one of their games, Janine paused for a moment and looked up at the sky. The stars were now more visible, shining brightly against the deepening blue. They looked like tiny diamonds, and Janine found their twinkling absolutely enchanting.
Today’s Meditation: Imagine you are a twinkling star, receiving and sending energy through the universe in today’s meditation.
Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.
