Sunday Letter of InSPIRITation: The Re-membering of Elara
Once, in a small town nestled between rolling hills and whispering trees, there lived a woman named Elara. From the moment she was born, Elara had a sparkle in her eyes that seemed to reflect the heavens themselves. What no one knew, not even Elara herself, was that she was an angel born into human form.
As a child, Elara was full of wonder and curiosity. She chased butterflies in meadows, whispered secrets to the wind, and felt a deep connection with every living thing around her. But as she grew older, the magic that once danced around her began to fade. Life's trials and tribulations weighed heavy on her heart, and she slowly forgot the ethereal truth of her existence.
Years passed, and Elara found herself caught in the routines of adulthood. Yet, the universe had not forgotten her. Signs began to appear—white feathers would inexplicably float down from the sky, landing at her feet as if to remind her of something long forgotten. She would sometimes catch glimpses of shimmering light in unexpected places, and a soft, guiding voice seemed to speak to her through the dancing of the trees, and the waves in the ocean.
Elara felt a calling in her heart, she noticed that this calling spoke about a heaviness in her heart. Elara began to pay closer attention to these mystical occurrences. She began spending time in nature, speaking to her heart and asking her heart what was this heaviness eh felt within. The moments spent in nature, she could hear the universe whispering its secrets to her soul. Slowly, she began to be able to listen to the voice of her heart and the universe all around her and within her. She began to understand that the heaviness was a longing, of something long forgotten. Slowly, the memories that had long been buried deep within her began to stir.
One evening, under the canopy of a starlit sky, Elara closed her eyes and listened with her heart. She felt a warmth spreading through her being, and suddenly, she saw them—beautiful, iridescent wings unfurling from her back, glowing with the light of a thousand stars. Tears of recognition and joy streamed down her cheeks as she embraced the truth that had been waiting patiently within her all along.
In that moment, the heaviness in her heart, lifted; as she recognized her truth. The truth of who she is. Her wings spread open, and she could hear the song of a thousand angels within her and all around her. The light of her heart shinning bright like the sun. when clearly as the day, the voice of her heart, resonated throughout the universe... you may have forgotten who you are, you have never stopped being it. the beauty and magic you saw in nature, can you see? it is your nature! Elara with tears streaming from her eyes, smiled and nodded in recognition of this new found truth.
From that moment on, Elara lived with a renewed sense of purpose and wonder. She remembered that she was not just a woman, but an angel—an emissary of light and love in the world. She understood that part of life's journey was to remember who she truly was and to embrace the magic that flowed through her veins.
And so, with wings spread wide and heart aglow, Elara soared through life, sharing her light and wisdom with all who crossed her path. For she had learned that the greatest gift one can give is to remember their true essence and to live as the magical beings they were always meant to be.
With love and care,
