Seagull Surprise Excerpt:
One cheery day on Ahway Island, Marnie the mail truck woke up feeling excited and full of energy. It was a beautiful morning, and she couldn’t wait to begin her daily route, delivering letters, packages, and surprises to the island’s residents.
Marnie felt extra ready to hit the road today. She knew it was going to be a wonderful day full of surprises and smiles because, as she was loaded up with packages and letters, she spotted a burst of color amidst all the mail. It was a bright blue envelope, sealed with a glittery sticker that said, “Happy Birthday!”
Marnie knew that a birthday was a super special occasion, and she couldn’t wait to bring cheer and happiness to the lucky person who would receive this wonderful surprise. Of course, every delivery was important to Marnie, but birthdays were celebrations that brought her extra joy.
Today’s Meditation: Enjoy the feeling of your body relaxing into the warm sand on a sunny beach.
