Meditation - 30

Imagine if people never disappointed us. We'd never know what disappointment meant.

Connections, communications are complex, far more than voice to ear or eye to eye; they go deeper, involve the emotions and the spirit.

Meditation - 28

Sunlight and strong wind are an invigorating mixture that play havoc with my eyes.

If you talk nicely to plants, they respond positively by growing. I only threaten them with the composter as a last resort.

Fennel leaves hold last night's rain drops like precious jewels from their filigreed leaves; green frames for light-filled droplets.

The sage flower buds looked dried up and dead until the rains came. Then they burst into bloom; pink-mauve, attracting bees and butterflies.

Meditation - 24

Sometimes I don't feel as though people treat me as they should. Do I always treat others properly though?

Meditation - 23

I feel ill. But the world does not stop. Life goes on as normal. I have to cope, to get on, to take steps to get better. Stop being a wimp!

Out of Touch

I'm exhausted! Recently life has been too busy, too stressful and just too much. So I'm taking a few weeks break from everything. I won't be around on the internet much until mid-late July as I really need a break from my pc screen and have some serious reading to catch up on. (Too much work and not enough rest....) The only internet contact I will be having is on my blog on a daily basis as I'm participating in A River of Stones project in July. So if you need to contact me urgently, leave a comment on my most recent posting, and, time and place permitting I'll be in touch.

Despite life being manic and crazy, I have at last managed to launch my very own newsletter - let me know if you'd like to receive further issues.  Any comments are more than welcome.

I had a short story published recently too - you can read it  here - scroll down to page 3 but feel free to look at the rest of the stuff there!

And, finally, if you feel in need of some light holiday reading, why not try this book ?

Take care and have a lovely Summer - let's hope the sun shines soon!

Keep being creative!

Freya

Meditation - 22

The rain, so long awaited, drenches earth and concrete, hangs off leaves in a multitude of light-filled drops. The sun does not appear but his presence is seen in each drop.
