Mysterious Masks Excerpt:
Allie stared out the window of the car as she watched the world pass by. Bright yellow, orange, and red leaves danced in the wind as they fell from the trees. In the front seat, her dad hummed a happy tune as he drove. Today, Allie was heading to the park to play with her friends Lydia, Andy, Owen, and Raj, and she couldn’t wait to see them.
The car glided smoothly down the road, and soon Allie and her dad arrived at the park. When she stepped out of the car, something caught Allie’s eye: there was a vibrant poster hanging on the community bulletin board. It had a purple background with smiling orange pumpkins on it, and large, white text.
Today’s Meditation: Imagine floating on a cloud, and relax into the feeling of lightness.
