As I continued my journey, my little friends shared more of their priceless treasures with me. They showed me that simply being kind to yourself and others is the greatest treasure anyone can share while on this earth.
I discovered that self-love and kindness is what made the Firefly glow so beautifully.
Also it was kindness and gentleness that warmed the heart of each of the inhabitants of our magical little forest during the cold winter.
I learn that just by our presence we can brighten someone's life, and that kindness cannot exist in this world without our being it. That is how important we are!

The voice of the Yogi petz, (that is how I named the little critters,) became my inner voice. They taught me how to be still and listen to that still small voice within myself, in moments of stress and anxiety.Â
For it was in moments of stillness that I found my way to their magical little forest.
There, they always waited, with my dear old tree, welcoming me in their gentleness, peace and joyfulness.
I am grateful that you, dear reader, can join me along on our journey and discover more where the Yogi Petz live and to also discover that place, within your own heart. A place we all still possess but it may be a little buried  and covered by the simple fact of being a grown up. For as Walt Disney used to say: "while there is very little grown up in every child, there is still a lot of child in every grown up." The child in all of us, waiting to be healed, nurtured and revealed again.
