On a green hill, far away somewhere, there was a special place. Completely extraordinary! Quiet, peaceful, surrounded by a few fluffy clouds, adorned with beautiful trees, to which a wide and safe path led.
From that place, one could admire a wonderful view – of fields, meadows, flowers, villages, and everything you think is worth seeing. Close your eyes, breathe in the fresh air, the scent of grass. Feel the pleasant temperature of a summer evening and imagine that you are right there. You lie on your favorite blanket, with your favorite thoughts in your head and with a tremendous belief in your heart, soul, and spirit that something magical is about to happen! Something you have been waiting for so very long.
Imagine that you open your eyes, and in the beautiful, dark sky, you are looking for them – the falling stars that fulfill wishes, which have fairy-tale power, and as soon as you notice them, as you think of those things that you want so very much to come true – they come and sit beside you.
And you know… they are waiting for you to call as many of them as possible! Until there are plenty of them! Countless! Small, large, and enormous!
They sit down and want to look into your eyes and your heart to better understand why you need them. And they can’t wait to talk to you about it.
And right now, I’m lying on the blanket and looking at the sky at the sparkling tails of my falling stars, which shimmer in various colors and are so happy for our meeting, and I ask:
– Is it true? Will you really all come true?
– It depends only on you – they answer me with a smile.
– On me? I don’t understand. Can you please explain?
– Of course! We can come true. In fact! We want this very much. That’s why we are here. We wouldn’t exist without your dream. We shine because you believe in us, but we won’t come true until you turn your thoughts somewhere else – to your inner self. Until you seek out what truly, but completely honestly, blocks you from having us with you forever.
– But nothing blocks me!
– Are you sure? – they asked, looking at me closely.
And I ponder, and I search, and I must admit to my shining star-dreams that they are right. I still have a lot to learn, to overcome many fears, doubts, excuses, and change a whole lot of false beliefs. I need to do a great amount of work for them to stay with me forever.
– I understand. Thank you so much for showing me this.
– We wouldn’t have shown you if you hadn’t asked us. And now go, and step by step, piece by piece, work so that we can come true. We will be sitting here on this hill, shining, and patiently waiting until it is possible.
And think… there are many such magical places out there. Sometimes it’s a hill. Sometimes a regular bench. Sometimes your own room full of toys. Wherever you want, you can close your eyes and imagine falling, colorful, sparkling stars that sit beside you and together you talk about what to do to make them come true, to make them stay with you forever.
And they, those star-dreams, and I, are keeping our fingers crossed for you!
Good luck!
