A Sunday Afternoon

I was lying down resting in my room. I didn't fall asleep, but when I got up I felt like waking up from a dream.

I felt an urge to get out of bed and went onto the balcony.

The sun was setting behind the house, and in front of me, the clouds were pink.

The sound of the sea, the birds and the strong autumn wind gave me an intense feeling of freedom.

I walked the street in front of the house, admiring the green of the trees and plants growing freely in the empty lots.

I contemplated our pumpkin patch, which seemed to glow, and with a deep breath, I smiled with profound joy.

I looked at my house, and it felt like I was dreaming and, at the same time, waking up from the dream.

I felt like the girl from a few years ago in Porto Alegre, wrapped up under woolen blankets, dreaming of one day living near the sea, and when I get off the bed I Am the woman I am today, a conscious creator enjoying life beyond drama and suffering, living the Ahmyo Life.

It was like time travel; I felt like I was in two places at the same time, and at the same time, there was no time or space.

At the same time that I was two versions of myself, I was neither, I was the Eternal Being.

I felt like a newborn getting to know the world.

It was as if I was seeing each leaf for the first time, smelling the eucalyptus and the sea breeze for the first time.

It was as if I had been placed to live this life at that moment and everything was being presented to me.

I woke up with new eyes.

Beyond what I had ever dreamed of - this is the gift that is here.

Minutes after this cosmic experience that we can literary call an epiphany, I sat on the porch of my house to eat a sandwich.

Yes, it was that simple.

Sitting down, while Lucas was talking to a friend on the phone, I saw something fly into the house.

Since we live in the middle of nature, it is quite common for many animals to fly into the house. I once received a visit from a hummingbird, but that is another story.

This time I wondered if the figure I saw entering was a bird or a bat, but I was surprised by a butterfly!

I love receiving visits from my pakawuah (totem/power animal).

Its flight was frantic, but I managed to capture the shade of blue in its wings. It flew fiercely, shocking everywhere, while I watched it still.

Then it circled around me and flew quickly but gracefully out the back door.

When I went out to look for it, it had disappeared, as usual.

The speed with which everything happened was somewhat shocking.

I often see butterflies on the way and feel happy and accompanied, but this agitated butterfly came loaded with magic and passion.

A messenger, a multidimensional navigator.

When I saw that she had disappeared, I was left with the delightful enigma of her disappearance as an invitation to explore other dimensions.

Her brief visit also connected me to my passion and reminded me of the joy of sharing a simple story.

With love,
