I closed my eyes and opened my hands to the sky.

I saw in my mind’s eye glitter falling down around me

.    

     .

          .

               .

                     .

                           . just like I was in a snow globe.

It fluttered down

and made tinkling sounds on my skin.

I could smell that it was made up of slivers of atmosphere,

   I could see that it was made up of stars.

Little bits sparkled in my eyelashes like snowflakes do.

The falling glitter felt warm and at the same time refreshing.

I felt in direct connection with something much bigger than me.

My heart opened up to the sky like a yoga pose.

And goosebumps rained down my arms and legs.

I tip my head back further and feel the glitter racing through my hair.

I rock my head back and forth and feel lighthearted.

I feel connection to the thing and all the things at once.

My eyes roll back into the light, and I smile from pure bliss.
