When I have insomnia, I often sit under the open sky in my terrace breathing the fresh air. And suddenly the black night’s space was enlighted by a falling star. The star flew so nearby!
Usually, the stars are falling at the end of summer here, so I was a little surprised. In the ears, I heard dad’s voice: make a wish, make a wish…
I tried to come up with a desire and suddenly realized that everything I want is here: under this great sky, under my feet, in the night wind, in my breathing, and in my heart.
The star crossed the darkness and fell into infinity. I couldn’t even move for a few minutes – I was stunned by my perception: I have everything I need. Absolutely.
After that, life came back again: I heard grasshoppers, somewhere the dog barked, and I went to sleep. But I know that moment was a miraculous gift.

Lovely to know when we have everything we need……some never have enough and the more they get the more they want……contentment is great gain
