Today’s walk was during the high point of the day, and this day is hot. I whistled for my friend, and at first he did not come, but within a minute he came to his tree. He did not perch, but drifted down to the lower branches of this barren tree. I walked to the wooden fence and looked over, and my hummingbird friend hovered just above the ground, looking for something. He passed over to my right side, within a few feet of me. Then he flew quickly by my face, and to his taller tree. Today is hot, he needs to be shaded.
The dogs and I took a quick but calm walk down the hill and around the park, and I talked on my cell phone with my partner for the next Healing Drum event, upcoming on the fall solstice weekend of September 19th. We continued our talk as I walked back up the hill to the hummingbird meeting place. “He’s in the tree, shaded”, I told her, but we could feel his presence. He sent her greeting, and his magical healing as he had done in the past.
“He wants you to know you are beautiful”, I shared with her. “When you are within the moment, centered within yourself, that beauty is amplified.” What a wonderful message to convey to another. Beauty in real life comes not from our decoration, but our declaration of our spiritual presence. Beauty in real life, it shines from our heart and through our eyes.
