As healers

It was the first day of Spring. There I was at the age of seven, walking to school with a heavy heart.  Suddenly, I saw a purple flower.  I went closer to the fence and saw an open purple bloom with a yellow centre.  I didn’t know why but I liked the flower and stayed around it for a minute or two – a quiet inner joy came over me – I realized I needed to get to school. I got to school on time and noticed that I was humming and chatty with my class mates.   

It is only now that I realize that the purple flower with its saffron yellow interior was a crocus. I also know that the experience I had as a child was an experience of joyous transformative healing. It healed gently my childhood stories. The crocus is a soul healer.  It heals those
