A gentle smiling woman with a round face and wavy chestnut shoulder-length hair, wearing a simple cream dress and moss-green shawl, holds out her hand offering a small golden petal-light that floats above her palm while a small round blue bird perches on her right hand watching the light; a tousled blond boy of about six in a blue tunic claps and plays before a round-doored thatch-roofed wooden cottage with red shutters and a mossy path edged with white flowers, a narrow sparkling stream to the right; the golden petal-light scatters tiny stars and creates a luminous arc between the woman and the cottage, soft palette of tender greens, powder blues, creams and golds, centered on the exchange with a warm, fairy-tale dusk atmosphere. report a problem with this image

A young woman walks in a soft wood. The sun is gold. The trees hum. "Hello," she says. A little bird sings, "cheep cheep." She smiles. Hop. The bird hops on her hand. Toc-toc, a kind bell rings. A tiny light comes. It is magic light. It holds her hat. It shows the way.

She walks on a path made of warm moss. Plouf, a small stream giggles. She dips a toe. The water is cool and kind. A white flower opens. It gives her a bit of light. The light is like a warm hug. She puts it in her pocket. The light sings soft songs. La la. It helps her find stones that glow.

At a small house, a child waves. "Hello," says the woman. She gives the child a petal light. The child claps. Clap clap. The house glows. All are safe. The little light floats up. It makes a path of soft stars in the air. The stars lead them home. The night is calm. The moon smiles. The woman hums a low tune. Everyone sleeps a sweet sleep.

She wakes with a smile. The light stays in her heart. It is warm and near.

The kind light in your heart can help you and others.
