We all are familiar with these whispy dandelion seeds. I am betting that as a child you picked one of the bulbous flowers, squeezed your eyes tight, as your mind formulated a wish that contained your heart’s desire, then lightly blew the transparent seeds, sending them scattering on the wind’s currents. Sound familiar? Sure it does! There is just something enticing about these starry shaped seeds that seems to exude magic!
These dandelion seeds wished upon carried our childhood hopes and dreams entwined within their silky fibers. Their presence today, even as adults, still holds a whimsical wonderment reminding us of the joyful moments spent believing in the magic found in nature. This magic has not deserted us. It lies deep within us waiting to be rediscovered. Nature provides magnificent moments for us. It is up to you to allow the magic found in nature, permission to become part of your world again. As children we had no problem noticing the most minute details that encircled our environment. We could haphazardly wish upon dandelion seed flowers, sending our wishes off into the atmosphere, secure in the knowledge that our wishes would be heard and materialize somehow in our lives. Life was simple then. Although we may have grown into adults, magic never ages, waiting patiently for us to uncover it. Delight in special aspects of nature, enhancing the magic moments found in something as simple as making a wish upon a dandelion seed flower! Allow the Earth’s wonder to rekindle the flame of childhood memories once more!
