Enchantment

Today I awoke early in the morning, for I had fallen asleep at a semi-decent hour while finishing The Horse and His Boy and starting Prince Caspian, both books from The Chronicles of Narnia. I picked up where I had left off the night before and found myself wrapped up in all the wonders of Narnia and the adventures of Peter, Susan, Edmund, Lucy and others. After a while I looked up, out the window and saw glorious snowflakes floating, twirling, and dancing softly to the ground. They were the large snowflakes, the kind you like to have fall on your face as you stick out your tongue to catch a few. Immediately I felt as if I were in Narnia myself...when the children first discovered that wonderful land. I was full of excitement and my inner-child burst forth...I gazed into the sky, marveling that no one flake was alike, and felt the soft whisper of God saying "You're just like them...unique, no one is like you." I smiled and soaked in the moment. It then dawned on me to express my artistic side and so I reached for the digital camera (since mine was "lost" in Prague) and took these pictures. They do no justice to what it actually looked like. Part of the mystery and magic was in my mind, seeing this through the eyes of a child, the other being you can never fully capture what something looks like in person. I hope that you catch a glimpse of what I saw...Happy imagining!!
