Bianca Polar Bear and Beau Beluga try to catch snowflakes and notice that each one is different!

Sparkling Snowflakes Excerpt:

It was a quiet winter afternoon in the northern Arctic of Ahway Island. Snow drifted gently from the sky, swirling in delicate patterns as the crisp wind carried it across the icy tundra. Bianca Polar Bear padded softly along the snowy ridge near the water’s edge. Her thick white fur kept her warm as she walked.

Occasionally, Bianca paused to look out over the landscape and sniff the frosty air.  As the polar bear gazed across the snow, she felt grateful for the day’s peace and beauty. It was a lovely, wintry day. Still, Bianca felt herself longing for some company.  That was why she had come to the water’s edge this afternoon.

Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine you are a baby penguin snuggled close to its papa.
