     She has a gift to share and wants to make the world a better place

She woke to the sound of the talking pebbles in the glass jar on the bedside table . There were other sounds as well providing an ambience to what was being said .
"Time to rise and shine . It's now time to begin a new day “
Milly was surprised and responded .
“Time to begin what “
She asked
The talking pebbles started to communicate with her .
“Today is a day of many new beginning’s . Its time to begin to share the gifts you have been given . Your work is about to begin . “
Milly replied ,
“I’m very excited about all that . But to be honest I have no idea what to do or where to go “
“Milly you are ready now to make some big changes in the world .With the gifts you received in the cave of good souls , you are able to bring joy and happiness to many with just the touch of your hand and as a matter of fact you can every do it by thought transfer “
“I’m eager to begin helping so where am I to start “
Milly asked and the talking pebbles said ,

“Milly you are ready now to make some big changes in the world .With the gifts you received in the cave of good souls , you are able to bring joy and happiness to many with just the touch of your hand and as a matter of fact you can every do it by thought transfer “
“I’m eager to begin helping so where am I to start “
Milly asked and the talking pebbles said ,

“You will go wherever your tricycle brings you . /Its that simple . Go there and observe then help where you can. “
.
Milly now realised that with receiving the gift she was given it required her to also give something in return and so the mission for her was to give freely her time to bring happiness to others and she felt ok about doing that .
When she went outside the tricycle was waiting and shimmering brightly in the sun.
The gate at the end of the path opened and she got into the tricycle and made her way out the gate . Along the rainbow road she went and suddenly her tricycle sprouted wings and started to fly somewhere over the rainbow to a village where the tricycle landed near a market place .
Milly went for a walk through the market observing what was happening .
There was a small child screaming in her father’s arms . She wasn’t happy at all .. When Milly walked passed her, she gently touched the child’s shoulder without being seen and straight away the child began to giggle and laugh .
Milly was amazed at how fast the child’s crying had stopped .
As she walked through the crowded market she looked and listened to people around her . She saw angry young man walking past and sent him happy thoughts he even smiled at her , There were soi many people with different looking faces , innocent , young and old , some were worried and stressed others looked lost and lonely .She soon became aware that was she able to help some people but she was also becoming more confident about the gift she had been given and her ability to make a difference
As she was looking at some items on one of the stalls , a young lad next to her looked troubled and upset about something . She could sense he had lost someone close and as she reached out for a book on display Milly gently nudged him . The young lad smiled and then started to hum a tune . Immediately someone else started humming a song and in a few minutes a small group of people were humming or whistling as they looked through the things on display . Suddenly one of them started laughing for no reason which made another start laughing . In a few moments they were all having a good laugh It was so funny that Milly also began laughing as well . They couldn’t stop laughing and when eventually they stopped ,
not one of them could explain when at they were all laughing about ..
as soon as she passed on her gift of laughter to them all their sorrow would disappear .
She was the girl with the invisible magic touch and she wanted to make everyone happy with her gift .

In the markets there were some musicians playing traditional music for the people there . Milly loved dancing and her parents had taught her how to dance to jigs and reels . She even knew some square dancing . Living a secluded life on the mountain she had never the opportunity to join in dancing with others until now ..She took her place among others in the set dancing and was more than happy to join in with the mixer dances and in the dances when she changed partners she noticed the effect her touch had on people she danced with . The laughter was contagious it spread around people who were dancing . What a wonderful time was had by all .
At the end of the dance Milly returned to her tricycle and soon found her way back to the rainbow road and her little home on the mountain top.

I think we all have that invisible touch. We just have to use it. My dreams are not like yours. But I have a story every morning like you do.
