I had been waiting for today all my life. I received news that what was once an invisible firefly flash as I sat on the sofa is now a book. Yippee!
For a day so overwhelmed by emotion, I'm doing what always works for me in almost any situation — go back to the meaning of Affimals, which is Affirmations + Animals... which is connection. The wonders of how wild things survive in wild places can truly inspire a kind of happiness we can all have in our lives. This positivity — whether it came from the KOALA ("Give hugs") or the FIREFLY ("Spark imagination") — went into every word, thought, interview, or pound upon pound of library books schlepped to and from the UC Berkeley Biosciences Library.
I'm not sure how I was so lucky to have had Affimals select me to be its creator, but all I foresee for it now is a wonderful journey ahead thorugh a wild kingdom of its own. And thanks to all of you, it will be happy.
