    “ I am Leonardo, the overseer of this land,” he said to Jillian.
     
    “ That is a beautiful stone you possess,” he said looking at Jillian’s hand, and how it seemed to be glowing silver, gold and purple.
     
    “ Thank you,” Jillian said eyes wide open looking at the stone. “Do you know anything about it? Is it special?”
     
    “ Of course it is special. It belongs to you, doesn’t it?” The hawk said as he tilted his head slightly.
     
    Jillian started to nod and shook her head, “Yes, I am looking for the secret. That is why I am here.”
     
    “ So then, what are your intentions?” He asked almost as if he were staring into her soul with his piercing eyes.
     
    “ I don’t know,” Jillian replied wondering what he meant.
     
    “ You must live with intention or you will be adrift, floating aimlessly. Decide what you want to do, and state your intention.”
     
    Jillian was getting a bit nervous. This was not making sense. A little skunk walked up to Jillian and tugged at her pant leg. “Before you get out of bed, say ‘I intend that I am making this a great day!’ Or think about how you want your next adventure to go. Then say something like, ‘I intend for this experience to give me the answers I need at this time.’ You can do this all day long,” the skunk said and scampered back to the crowd.
     
    “ Oh, I get it!” Jillian exclaimed as she thought about how she could intend a lot of things. “I intend that I will keep you all in my heart,” Jillian said without even realizing it. Her eyes got wide as she blinked and looked around wondering where that came from.
     
    The animals all started to laugh at the surprise of her spontaneity. Jillian laughed too.
     
    “ Do you think you are any closer to understanding the secret?” Illianna asked.
     
    Jillian looked down at her hand that held the stone. A pink light was glowing from between her fingers, “Yes, I do,” Jillian said. “Thank you all so much,” Jillian said, bowing to everyone. “You have given me so much to think about!”
     
    “ You are very welcome,” Zen said. His smile was so wide he was squinting.
     
    “ Thank you!” Jillian said. She and Illianna turned around and headed back to where they had started.
     
    When they reached the familiar place at the lake’s edge, Illianna said, “Put your hand on my mane and close your eyes. Free your mind and just ‘be.’ Send your mind to where it knows it must go, and your body will follow. What you are seeking, you will find!” Jillian took a deep breath and began to relax. To just 'be.’ In her mind’s eye, she could see the waterfall and sandy beach. She began to feel the rumbling again, and then it stopped.
     
    She opened her eyes, and the sun was so intense she covered her face. She heard a familiar sound, Tiffany Marie purring. She was right there on her chest, where she had put her last night. As she stretched, she thought, I have never dreamed like that before, except for the nap I took in the meadow.
     
    She put Tiffany Marie in her litter box and jumped back into bed, opened her journal and began to write down her newest 'dream.'
     

 
     

     
    Jillian arrived at the library quite early, but certainly not wanting to look anxious . Nice little place, she thought. So quiet. There is nobody else around, unless they're hiding. So, what do I do now that I'm here? She started looking through the selection of all 52 music CD's they had to offer. Then it only took a minute to browse the even smaller video selection, mostly all on VHS. She realized they don't have their books on computers? Card catalogs?  I guess I will just start at the beginning. Me and Dewey! She thought when Ryan walked in. Jillian looked up at the clock; it was exactly 5!
     
    "Did you notice the hours on the door?” he asked her.
     
    "No.  Why? Are they closed?" She teased.
     
    "In a half hour," he responded. "We had better get to work then. Why did we meet
