It is an early summer’s day
The sun is out
The sky is a perfect bright blue
There are a few white clouds scattered through the sky like a thin white veil
There is a slight breeze -- not too warm, not too cold
You are sitting in a field of tall grass
The grass is a light sand color
The grass sways gently to the breeze and makes a soft rustling sound
As you sit in the field
A cloud of butterflies  start to surround you
They are all colors -- purple, blue, yellow, red, and gold
As you put out your hands, they light onto your hand
Then, in the distance a humming bird appears
It is beautiful
Bright green with just a touch of pink
It’s feathers almost shimmer in the light
It is so small it could fit in the palm of your hand
As you watch it, its movements slow down
You can almost see the wings beat
Your heart starts beating at the same rhythm
As you close your eyes and listen to the breeze
The hummingbird gently touches your face before flying away

You are in a moment of truth bliss and peace
