Snow Dragon Excerpt:
Dragon pondered why it was so dark. Was it cloudy? Or maybe it was snowing. Dragon hoped there was snow. Dragon loved snowy days. With a hopeful smile, Dragon went to the cave entrance to investigate.
Well, Dragon had gotten their wish – it was a snowy day. In fact, it was so snowy that the entrance to the cave was completely blocked! From the floor to the ceiling of the opening, fluffy snow had piled up. The barrier glowed softly, suggesting that it was sunny outside. Dragon sighed. Sunny and snowy? It was a perfect day for making snow creatures. But first, the snow needed to be cleared.
Today’s Meditation: Imagine drawing gentle shapes in the soothing sand as you relax before today's story.
