The Sand, the Sea and the Wind
What is our life calling? Who are we and what should we do? These beautiful and profound questions are nowadays very stressful for many modern kids, as we all live in a society which expects us to know the answers from a younger and younger age. This is the story of our young seagull, who, though influenced by this kind of social stress, finds his way back to happiness, the answer to those questions and ''his place'' in his inner and outer worlds too. How? Join him to find out!
​
The antidote to this kind of anxiety is to take time off for relaxing, so to encourage some space and time in our life for calming the mind, and nurturing self acceptance and self love. Only when our mind is calm and serene can genuine inspirations abundantly and spontaneously come forth and flow.

​​As a boy, I was sad and confused. I didn't know where I belonged, who I was, or what I was supposed to do. I was frightened and shy, and so anxious that I had trouble falling asleep at night.

During one long night I looked deep into my heart and wondered – who am I, where do I belong, what am I supposed to do? And then, just before dawn, a big, white angel appeared before me, bathed in golden light. He radiated beauty, joy, and kindness, and I knew he was a messenger of the great light.

​​​"Don't worry," the angel said, "your gifts will be as vast as the sea, as pleasing as the caress of the wind, and as plentiful as the grains of sand on the beach."
​
"But how?" I cried to him, "Everyone knows who they are, and where they should be, and only I am frightened and confused…"

"Go to the sea," whispered the angel and he began to fade away, "that is where you will find all the answers…"
​
"Wait!" I cried, "I still don't understand."

But the angel and his light disappeared, and my mother woke me up, "It's time to get ready for school."
