Dharma learns that taking things at her own pace is important when she runs into Bert Bumblebee.

Hello everyone! We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Fast Flight,” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday!

Narrator: Female

Story Begins: 3:10

Fast Flight Excerpt:

Letitia said that her friends lived on the other side of the forest, which wasn’t too far, but it meant Dharma had a bit of a journey ahead of her. And Dharma wanted to show Letitia just how quickly she could deliver the package!

Dharma happily flew through the air, ducking and weaving through tree branches. She tried to do a flip once, but when the package almost fell out of her grip as she flipped around, she quickly realized that it wasn’t the best idea. She couldn’t let Letitia down by dropping her package!

Today’s Meditation: Love flows through you in this meditation as you imagine a baby fawn and mama deer.
