Answered Prayers

Answered Prayers

vl_prayer_tree

In the Animal Kingdom in DisneyWorld, there is an Indian prayer tree. The tradition is that people tie ribbons or bits of fabric to the tree, to represent a wish or prayer. When that prayer is answered, the person puts a bell on the tree. The sound of the bells tinkling represents all the answered prayers. What a beautiful thought. So many times my prayers have been answered, and almost never in the way I could have envisioned or expected. Yet when it happens, it seems like it was totally meant to be. Think I’ll put some bells up in the studio to remind me…
