After 4 days with NO sunshine and over 3-1/2" of rain, we are smiling and soaking up the rays this morning. It has been a dreary and soggy time over Texas but we always welcome the rain. It makes us appreciate the Sun more too. Thankful for everything God provides!
Once a little dandelion had a very special dream. But for a plant whose roots were in the ground, this dream was strange it seems.
I will tell you her dream, but you mustn't laugh, for a flower she is shy. The dream she dreams every night is that one day she will fly!
Now in this dream there is something strange (as dreams are wont to be),
"I felt myself floating high, as far as I could see! But when I saw myself in my dream, the me I saw wasn't me!"
So everyday she opened her face to the warm golden sun, she grew and grew, she dreamed her dream till an awful change had begun...
"What happened to my yellow face?! My tiny petals are now all gone! What is this fuzziness that I feel?! Have I been dying all along???
The little dandelion, now sad and afraid, stood alone on the lawn. "One more night to dream of flight and then my dream is gone."
She awoke at dawn no longer afraid, the day was bright and clear. A little girl played close by, "What's this? She's coming near"...
The little girl giggled when she saw the funny thing standing there full of fuzz. She ran up to it and plucked it up! The dandelion's mind was all abuzz!
What happened next was like magic! Like nothing the dandelion ever knew! The little girl puckered up her lips and ever so gently, she blew! The dandelion soared into the breeze on a hundred tiny wings! "I am flying!" she yelled. "My dream! My dream! It came true!"
As she floated on the gentle wind, going higher in the sky. The dandelion looked down at the girl who was smiling, waving goodbye.
"Thank you" she thought, "You made my dream come true. Whatever your dreams are sweet girl, I hope they come true too."
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Juanita, I pray YOU have a SUMPTUOUSLY SENSATIONAL SATURDAY, and are having a STIMULATING WEEKEND, my friend...
Yesterday we watched NFL football games and so it seemed like Sunday. Today we watched College football games and now we thought it was Saturday. I will surely have trouble going back to work. I hope you had fun with family and ate lots of delicious food as you shared all the things you are thankful for out loud.
Not only at Thanksgiving, not only each Thursday, but everyday, say Thank you, be Grateful, do something nice for somebody else. Juanita, I always look forward to your post as it is such a Blessing and a bright light in my day!
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Juanita, I pray YOU have a THANKFUL THIRSTY THURDAY/THANKSGIVING DAY, and have had a TREMENDOUS WEEK, my friend...Namaste
