This past week i have been reflecting on the kindness of others. I have been inundated with snail mail, cooked meals, warm conversations, friendly smiles and my husband even returned home with some wildflowers. My life is immeasurably blessed. And these blessings got me reflecting on the moments that have impacted or changed my life…
Love looks like this
This is my favourite cup. I love it for so many reasons. It was handmade. It’s happy. It was squeezed in the middle before it was fired so it feels just right in your hand. It’s the perfect size. I never finish a full cup of tea in any other mug. It fits conveniently inside…
Letting Love In…
For as long as I can remember i’ve been in love with love. I’ve searched and questioned and yearned and wanted to understand it since I was a tiny girl. When I was four I came to the understanding that as you grew, if you let it, love would turn you into a big warm…
The simple Truth.
My message is this: Show up. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to others. Its that simple. Remember life is not as complicated as we pretend it to be.
This I know to be Truth.
When I was a child kids would often tease me saying: Who do you think you are? You walk like you are someone special. You talk like you are someone special. Who made you queen? It was hard because alongside their accusations I had my own ‘what is the meaning of life thing’ going on.…
Every family is different
Our family happens to be a blended one. Is it hard? Of course, all families are hard sometimes. Do we agree on everything? No way, what family does? Do we all show up when we are tired and grumpy and out of our depths? Yep. That’s courage, we couldn’t live without it. Do we get…
Scary successful shiny spiritual women who appear to have it all…
You know what, I’m surrounded by divine women. Wise, beautiful, courageous, spiritual divine women. Powerful and strong women that bring profound goodness to this world every single day. And you know what else, some days that scares the pants off me. My inner Tourettes gets so out of control I paralyse myself. I get to…
Here’s an inside view of my inner landscape in the midst of a meltdown.
Chaos calls forth change… Look at birth… It’s messy! (I just discovered these reflections on moving out of our home and reinventing our life. It was written at the end of last year. I often write my way through chapters. You are welcome to read and harvest what you wish.) I’m at that pointy end…
The River of Life
Remember in Pocahontas when she sings “you cant step into the same river twice”? Well, i think she was actually onto something. I have been watching this river for two days now and while the vessel it fills, its banks, have only changed ever so slightly, at no point has the river flowing within ever been…
Creativity, the risk of life…
Deep in the recesses of my being I’ve made a ton of agreements with myself. One of these agreements has been that if i was going to do something i would do it well. Not a good job, more like exceptionally unrealistically well. Like just outside what i was humanly capable of well. This has…
