Spring Puddles Excerpt:
Terry the Truck was having a quiet morning. The little truck had been sitting in the garage, wondering what would happen today. With the season turning from winter to spring, his Human Driver had lately been very busy getting Terry ready to go on their favorite scenic drives. For the last two years, beginning after the spring thaws and until the late autumn freezes, Terry and his Driver would take wonderful drives through the countryside. During the last week or so, Driver had been checking Terry’s tires for air; giving Terry clean oil to help his engine, and making sure every little hum, chug, and grumble that Terry made was healthy and safe. It had been a while since he had had this much attention and Terry was excited at the prospect of their upcoming travels. But this morning, Terry hadn’t yet seen Driver.
Today’s Meditation: Imagine floating in a tranquil pool, safe and relaxed, as the water rocks you gently.
