Description

Rainbows from the Heart tells of two young girls, very different, yet connected. Maya, Anglo and of relative affluent economic means, meets Luna, the daughter of Mexican migrant farm workers temporarily camped near Mayas home in rural Southwest Florida. In their brief encounters, Luna imparts a lifelong gift of a simple ritual passed down through the ages from ancient Mayan times. The exchange opens the eyes and heart of Maya, who realizes, almost without knowing, how spreading love and forgiveness enriches the giver. Interwoven into the story are elements of Mayan mysticism, which focuses on moving the struggle for justice beyond blame and anger to new possibilities in a non-violent way. Rainbows from the Heart transcends the material world and takes us beyond the human condition into a world of spirit. The story brings this gift back into the everyday lives of two young girls; using the power of ancient tradition to further this journey on earth we call life.
