the first thing that came to my mind was TUZ!!! Tuz are little flickers of light that pop in water. these would be honey coated Tuz! the Abenaki native americans of New England & Canada taught me about the Tuz...they are little ladies, faeries of sorts, that glisten and snap pure white bright light into the watcher's eye. the belief is that when you see them POP out of the water that they are being released into the air and that they bring forth good wishes, Olegwasi, for the beholder. so, then i think about wishes...whenever i have the pleasure of experiencing Tuz my wishes immediately pop from my head...things to help the Universe ie. no hunger, no poverty, world peace, that we are all brothers and sisters feeling mother earth's heart beating. tuz hold a very endearing warm spot in my spirit for they are little miracles!
