Tonight, as the last bit of sun sunk below the horizon, I looked into a dark meadow. At first I saw darkness, then looked a bit longer. Tiny sparkles lit up the air and I noticed figures moving in the dark. A family of deer were grazing amidst a sea of fireflies that were glowing in the dim night sky. I was reminded that I can see the darkness or I can see the majestic. I want to be on the side of magic.💜🔮💫#yoga #lifeofayogi #nature #austin #happiness #happy #simplelife</p>http://ryannism.tumblr.com/post/50312733796http://ryannism.tumblr.com/post/50312733796Sun, 12 May 2013 22:34:34 -0400lifeofayogiyoganaturesimplelifeearthaustinhappinesshappy<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/873d3e7f21d79f0e4aa4b479bcfbd1a1/tumblr_mmlnrezZTC1r1gj7no1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>#vegan #glutenfree icecream treat!
