I looked over at the birdbath this morning, and I saw that it was a magic birdbath, that it showed images of my life, my journey, my search. It showed me peace and comfort, love and acceptance, creativity and challenge. It did not show me a perfect life, it showed me a meaningful life and that is so much more important to me. I saw the future, and I felt the wind sweeping the ground, rustling the trees, pushing the clouds. I saw the hard work for me, my long march to shedding fear and helplessness, my happy and successful search for love. If I could find that, I can find anything, and it is the most important thing.
