A Sweet Moment (9)

   Last year I did a bit of a series called 'A Sweet Moment' and I had done that in March. Well look at that, it is March again! Already....which means I am almost thirty six...and tomorrow my husband turns thirty seven!
 
I have another sweet moment to share with you. It once again goes back to when I was a child. I was maybe ten in this memory.

  Let me set the scene ~ A group of children in a meadow. There was probably about six of us. We were playing tag. The sun was setting and so the light was that ethereal warm and glowing kind. The meadow was bright with fresh green grass and Buttercups. It was one of those perfect childhood moments that I am so glad I can remember! We were playing tag. The boy who was it decided to chase me and I took off running. I have said before how I often felt constrained in my life. It was like there was a lot of burdens that weighed me down. I couldn't have put that into words when I was younger but I knew something was there that always held me back and made me feel cautious and more aware. So as I was running something amazing happened. For one of the very few times I can remember all those burdens lifted off. I felt like my feet had wings. I can almost promise you that my guardian angel just lifted me up and let me run free. I ran and ran and felt this rush of joy and goodness. That feeling made such an impression on me. No on could catch me. I didn't get tired. I just ran and ran with wings on my feet. The other children noticed my 'wings' and commented on how fast I was funning. I was laughing and laughing because I felt so free. Then the sun set and we were called in for bed. Life continued on as usual but I have never forgotten that moment of freedom. It was pure joy, pure energy, pure light, and all things wonderful and good. There was this spiritual purity in that children's game of tag. We were all so happy and it was like more than just us children were there and happy too. I can't explain it but it was such a sweet moment that has stayed with me forever.

  I hope when we get to Heaven we can always feel that beautiful freedom.

Have a lovely day ~
