Volcano Voyage Excerpt:
It was a peaceful dawn on Ahway Island. The rosy light of the rising sun began to gently stretch across the horizon, brightening the vast, shimmering ocean. One by one, the waves caught the light, turning the water into a sparkling sea of gold. The sky shifted slowly from deep blue to purple, then to a soft orange, and finally, a pale, happy yellow as the sun fully greeted the new day. It was a glorious sight to see!
High up in the sky, three little airplanes soared through the fresh morning air. Each one flew gracefully, guided by their skilled pilots. Leading the group was Hawk, a bright red plane. Behind Hawk was Holly, the green plane. Holly was in charge of this morning’s route. Finally, at the back, Herb the yellow plane zipped along happily, enjoying the peaceful ocean view.
Today’s Meditation: Relax as you imagine sunlight warming you as you lie in a grassy meadow.
