"What's the little princess doing down there?"
"What is she carrying in her basket, it seems she can hardly walk"
The little angels looked puzzled as they watched the little princess go near the Bridge of Danger that lead to the Valley of Grief.
"Let us sent the Butterflies to see what she is doing."
   
The butterfllies flapped their wings and went down to where she was.
"Sweet princess, whatever is the matter with you?"
"Why are you going to the Valley of Grief and what do you have in your basket that seems so hard to carry?"
"Oh sweet butterflies, oh sweet things, it's so hard to carry, it's so hard."
The princess whispered, her voice was filled with sorrow.
"What is it, tell us what it is you find so hard to carry." They flapped their wings in great concern.
"Oh sweet things, I've been going over the bridge all day long today and I can hardly place another step."
"This is the third stone
I'm carrying to the other side."
"A stone!"
"
Why in the world would you carry stones over this dangerous bridge to the valley?"
The princess sighed as she looked at the sweet little butterflies.
"Oh you are such kind little things."
"Well, I was walking through the forest of enchantment this morning and saw these sad stones."
"They were crying and were very very sad, so I asked them why they were crying."
 
"The one who called himself Sorrow, said that they needed to be brought to the Valley of Grief, but they could not get there on their own."
"Then Worry, the other crying stone asked me to get them there."
"So I have been carrying them there, but it's hard to do so for I'm only a little princess and my basket can only have one stone."
"The one I'm carrying now is named Emotional Confusion, this is the hardest one to carry and it makes me cry."
"Somehow the nature of the stones radiate to my spirit and I feel their Sorrow, Worry and Emotional Confusion."
"Little princess, little princess I know what you should do!"
"Don't take them to the Valley of Grief they will only cry more there and it's much further away, take them to the Rainbow Bridge instead."
It's right here."
The Butterfly joyfully cried out to her.

"I don't see a Rainbow Bridge here." the princess looked puzzled.
"But it's here, princess. Just look with the eyes of your spirit into your heart."
"How do I do that?"
"CLose your eyes and listen to the little angels sing the song of Father Rainbow."
She closed her eyes and as she listened suddenly her heart opened and the sweet melody took her soaring to the Rainbow Bridge.
"Oh I see it, the Rainbow Bridge it's here!"
Her heart leaped with joy and it almost seemed like she could fly.

"Oh look, it feels like I'm flying!"
"I'm walking on the Rainbow Bridge, it's not hard to carry the Stone anymore!"
"Oh Butterflies, butterflies thank you, thank you!"
She placed the stones one by one on the Rainbow bridge, then something happened.
They glided from the bridge into the waterfall and
water poured all over and around them.

The water soaked their nature and they stopped crying as the soft flowing Rainbow water comforted them.
"Oh listen, listen!" The butterflies flapped their wings in joy.
"The stones are singing the song of Father Rainbow."
The air was filled with the radiance of Father Rainbow and the little princess and the butterflies found themselves singing His song of comfort and love.
Blessings and love in Christ,
monique
