"I accept tom the Universe all
that it wants to give me,
so that I can gather the stars.
I feel their light shine on me
twinkling a prism of color
falling on my head and shoulders
softly settling in my heart."
Sharron Maygar
Stars shine upon me and I feel as though I have been kissed by God. Watching the moon float across the sky, I feel like I am journeying with all that exists above. When the sun is warm upon my face or the sound of a rippling brook fills my ears, I am alive in every cell.
I may not remember the clothes I wore as a little girl, but I do remember lying on my back in the damp grass while selecting images from the clouds above. I remember lightning bugs and the call of the owl at the end of the day.
Throughout my life, the stars and the moon have accompanied me. In my loneliest hours, they were there for me. Whether present in my heart or twinkling in the black sky, their presence was felt, encouraging me to brave and keep moving forward.
