Once upon a time in 2007, a whimsical bohemian called Lisa created a world event, One World One Heart. The aim was to bring bloggers from all over the world together … to discover and engage with like minded bloggers and perhaps win a prize, too. In the beginning there were 85-90 participants and last year, there were 911 participants from 28 different countries. Last year, I found out about this wonderful opportunity to spread goodwill too late to join in, so now let’s get on the magic carpet and take a message of peace wherever we go in 2010.
My magic carpet dreams took me to the realm of flight, light, mystery, exotic places, new worlds…. and visions of splendid dragonflies. I found this wonderful description here at wiki answers. Dragonflies are reminders that we are light and can reflect the light in powerful ways if we choose to do so. "Let there be light" is the divine prompting to use the creative imagination as a force within your life. They help you to see through your illusions and allow your own light to shine in a new vision. The dragonfly spirit is what I hope accompanies my giveaway – a hand stitched Japanese style dragonfly cache and a tiny pair of felt dragonfly fairy shoes, also hand embroidered.
