The Eagleʼs great heart was deeply touched and he told her to climb onto his back and he would take her to a place she had never been before ~ a place where she would transcend time and space.
She didnʼt hesitate, sensing that this was her destiny, and climbed upon his back and nestled into his feathers as he slowly spread his wings and ascended into the morning sky ~ her heart fully opening as they climbed higher and higher while he felt wondrously completed for he was now not only seeing through his eagle's heart but also through a precious hummingbird's soul.
The gardener watched in utter amazement realizing that he had witnessed another miracle of nature ~ a miracle that had something to do with love for his thoughts immediately went to his wife who was a precious and magical gift in his life.
And at that moment, he smiled and realized the gift the Eagle had taught him ~ that in the kingdom of nature the mighty and the small are all equal and are all perfected when they conquer fear and fully surrender to love.
In that blinding moment of insight he also glimpsed that the whole world, as we know it, is subject to this universal urge to unite, this Unified Field of love and soul consciousness that runs through all and doth all unite.
Can it really be this simple?
He pondered that question as he picked up his garden tools and quickly started home ~ determined to share this story with his wife and young children.
