letting go

trees



















Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky,
we fell them down and turn them into paper,
that we may record our emptiness.

cosy

fancy a nap anyone?  :-)            in this low light serenity ...




















hi lovelies, hope you're all well and warm.


i’ve spent the last 7 days or so, rising before the day wakes..
seeing the colours of dawn emerging, while i do a morning
yoga session. and i feel so much better for it..
that time of day seems to be fitting beautifully for my sesh'. 
so quiet.  and viewing the light and colours changing in the
morning sky, minute by minute, has been a magical way to
start the day.  although, i kept getting the urge to stop
and capture the beauty, in photos.  i resisted.........
with much effort :o)


had a pleasant week getting sorted for christmas, early.
cos we are off on our travels again.. soon.
so although we escape it, which is how we like it these days,
i still like to send gifts and cards to nearest and dearest.
we’ve got family coming to visit over the weekend.. cannae wait.
gonna spend this afternoon wrapping gifts and writing in the
cards i‘ve just finished, all ready for them to be taken back up
to Cumbria with the clan.  and that really is the extent of our
christmassy stuff… we’ll be spending the festive season wandering
in the Rif Mountains in Morocco.. weather permitting : ) gets mighty
cold and wet up there in the Winter months.


i’m looking to take a yoga travel mat with me this year, i struggle
without a mat.. so, if anyone has any recommendations, it would
be appreciated? something that would easily squish into a rucksack.




time for a hot brew.. and then to get wrapping.. may even join
the wee bird for a cosy nap before tonight’s dinner prep..
a wee silent snoozzzzzzzze....


hope you’re enjoying your day, folks …

natures way
















When snow falls, nature listens .......

balance...



















Toleration is the greatest gift of the mind;
it requires the same effort of the brain
that it takes to balance oneself on a bicycle.
