Dragons

8/16/2011

 I'm reminded of being with a young student/friend this weekend on a quest to replace a wooden figure eaten by her little dog. It was a sunbird but, she now wanted a dragon. Her mom and I had taken her through several stores with no success. She sensed the expedition coming to a close and lamented:
"I need a miracle."  
"I have a photo of a sign that was around the corner from your home. A cardboard sign that read, Need A Miracle."
I showed it to her and suggested another store, Tibetan, that was nearby.
She searched and eventually found her miracle, a small wooden Dragon that she immediately loved.
"I found a miracle, I found a miracle," she chanted walking by a large statue of Ganesh.
"I need a miracle, too," I said aloud, following her lead.
And from what I thought to be Ganesh's mouth but, turned out to come from the woman kneeling before him, came the answer, "Pray."
"Pray," she repeated, in case I missed the message.
