Spectacular Sunrise Excerpt:
Flick didn’t particularly like waking up when it was still dark outside, but she did enjoy watching the sun rise. It always made the farm look so beautiful. Though…it would be a while before sunup, Flick realized, so she focused intently on her chores to pass the time.
Flick’s first job was to carry people to their morning tasks. With the farmer steering her carefully, the little green truck rolled up and down the fields, bouncing as she went. The cool morning air felt refreshing against her windshield, and she couldn’t help but smile as the early-rising farm workers laughed each time their ride bounced on the uneven ground.
Today’s Meditation: Picture floating in the safe and comforting waters of a tranquil pool.
