Linda Mitchell is hosting our Spiritual Journey Thursday for August. She asked us to write about what's in our hearts and in our spirits. You can read Linda's post and that of other Spiritual Journey travelers by clicking on Linda's blog, Another Word Edgewise. She shares a delightful summer gratitude post. Thanks for hosting, Linda!
The definition of glimmers, according to the Calm blog:
Since sharing glimmers is a way to help us find more of them, here's a glimmer from yesterday's walk:
I was on my morning walk when twin fawns darted across the road just a few feet in front of me. Grabbing my phone from my pocket, I snap pics of them looking at me. Or were they just looking at their mom in the bushes across the road? Three walkers stand in the road worried for these two littles separated from their mother. A walker joins us from the other direction. Mom doesn't come because she's with a triplet sibling. The other walkers continue on their way. I walk backwards (probably not wise to do in one's seventies), watching to see if the other two will cross the road to join the daredevil siblings. They don't come, but the adventurous two finally retrace their steps across the road to mother and sibling. I breathe a deep sigh of relief and turn around to continue my walk!
This encounter was definitely a micro moment of joy, from the moment the deer bounded across the road in front of me, to the fellow walkers who worried with me about these little guys separated from their mama, to their eventual return to Mama and sibling across the road. What glimmers have you noticed recently?
