Polite Pasture Excerpt:
The sun hid behind a blanket of soft gray clouds, making the pasture misty and cool. Fluffy white sheep, looking like little clouds themselves, dotted the vibrant green grass. Even without the sun’s bright rays, the little farm was peaceful and beautiful. A fresh, rainy scent lingered in the air, carried by a gentle breeze that just tickled the sheep beneath their wool. It was a perfect day for grazing.
Everything was calm and quiet when Shiloh Sheep noticed the farmer on the other side of the fence. The farmer held a bucket in his hands, and Shiloh’s nose twitched. He sniffed the air deeply. Could it be? Could that sweet smell really be molasses-coated oats?
Today’s Meditation: Imagine floating on a cloud, and relax into the feeling of lightness.
Creating the original bedtime stories and art for Be Calm on Ahway Island takes a lot of time and care.
