Summer Butterflies

Deb Dusansky August 3, 2011 Guests and Blogs Comments Off on Summer Butterflies

I have been enjoying the beautiful summer butterflies!

Each butterfly is unique and magical- with its own colors and patterns. Every butterfly emerges from a cocoon into the world. A butterfly must go inside first in order to then share its unique beauty with the world around it.

Are we like butterflies? Do we need to go inside into a cocoon and then emerge with our unique colors, patterns, and gifts?

What would your cocoon be like? Would you retreat in the mountains on a hike or write in a journal? How can you find time this month to create an hour or a day of a cocoon experience for yourself? What beauty would emerge to then share with the world?

I look forward to seeing the color and beauty that you share out of your cocoon!

Blessings, Deb

Chariots of Fire

Many of you know that the allusion of the title, Chariots of Fire, relate to Eliyahu HaNavi, Elijah the prophet, ascending to heaven in a chariot of fire, as he was leaving this world. So why the connection to this film?
