A few days ago through intuition I heard the call of the Hummingbird “We are coming, prepare for us your nectar.” I put out my yearly feeder and within minutes there they were. I delight in their radiant colors and size. The hummingbird reminds me to laugh and look for the joy in life and about being present in the moment. I am in awe of these tiny creatures, and appreciate the magic of being alive.
These tiniest of all birds are the only creature that can stop dead while traveling at full speed. It can hover, or can go forward, backward, up or down. It lives on nectar and searches for the sweetness of life. Its long tongue lets it bypass the often tough and bitter outer layer to find the hidden treasures underneath. The Hummingbird is loved by the flowers and plants, for as it sucks the nectar from the flower, the plant reproduces and more of its kind are created. Hummingbird must fly free in search of beauty, spreading joy and love to all it touches.
Before s(he) leaves the hummingbird tells us don't waste time looking back and wishing for "what was" but focus on making the most of "what is". We are reminded to look for the hidden treasures in our own lives and to spread our joy.
