Dalila sat at the waters edge in a state of wonder. How could the world be so beautiful and yet scary at the same time?
She loved to listen to the stream as it played among the rocks and rills. Little whirlpools swirled here and there. She watched as miniature fish played a game of tag with each other. She had chosen a favorite little fish and cheered him on as he became the winner of the game.
Her eyes were diverted to a swarm of midge. These tiny bugs had formed a dance troupe above the murmuring stream. They swooped and danced to the waters' song. Right before her eyes, the bugs turned into tiny fairies. With fluttering wings, they danced and swooped to a choreographed waltz; fairy ballerinas delighting in the freedom of being unconfined. Dalila saw herself among them. She was the elegant 'midge-fairy' at the very top of the swarm. She led each one in their best dance. She, as the lead fairy, taught them how to move in grace to the musical stream.
Dalila was a dreamer; from just a girl at the streams edge, to a 'dance teacher of fairies. She had come into her own right....it was the time to dream.
Her father was a dreamer. Her grandmother was a dreamer. It was now her time to step into her own time of dreaming.
Where would her dreams take her? She would sit and wonder.
To places no one else could go. To do things no one else could do. And in these dreams, all her desires would come true...she had come into her inheritance of dreams.
Passed on from generation to generation, Dalia would find that dreaming would put her farther ahead of others in life. She would become wiser and more thoughtful then other girls her age. She would 'see' things other girls couldn't. They would come to her, not knowing why, to just be where she was. She would draw others to her because she was a "dreamer".
Dalila would be a 'unique' woman of this world; many friends, many adventures, and find much secret treasure that others would never find.
Dalila the dreamer had inherited her dream status. And it was uniquely her own. No one was, or ever would be like Dalila the dreamer!
