Ah... what light of visions doth break through this dawning that I may once more awake to the joy of my soul and to all of the splendor that it brings to me... of love and sweet repose yet untold... that there is peace in my valley and a song in my heart. Would that I could but take a glimpse in the distance and see that which I desire walking towards me. Then my heart would take flight and hurl itself into the future that awaits me. I shall cast out the darkness of winter and bring to me the sun that shall shine in all its glory within me. Ah... but I know that this cold season is but a fleeting moment in time when I view the grand scheme of it all. I shall take this time to sup of the energies of the Universe and replenish my waning strength. Nay I say... 'tis but a thought for winter is here to bring its rest into my heart and to give me the dreams of summer in sweet repose. I shall take this time to recharge and to grow anew to the future that is yet to come into my experience. Journey with me on this respite break and dream your dreams of joy and delight. For when the sun makes itself known once again, we shall take flight to the stars above and from there we shall view the Universe in all its grandeur. As the earth does wake from its winter sleep, so shall we... we shaill be rejuvenated and inspired and wake from our dream to realize that our dream has now become our reality. Let our dream inspire us... let them carry us off to the cosmos where we may touch the stars in the skies. And there for a brief moment in time we shall know the wonder of it all. How divine. How simply divine Our thought for the day is: 'The mind sees what the mind sees. But the soul sees what is yet to be. How utterly divine.'
