Happy New Year!

Hello, and happy 2018 everyone!

I wish you all a roof over your head, food on your table, peace in your soul, hope in your heart and love in your life.

Thank you for taking the time to read my little blog 🙂

Shadows

~ no words ~

Spring

Leaves, textures, variations, colours, sunshine. Beauty in the small things.

Random thoughts (aka braindump)

I haven’t blogged for a while, it has been on my mind, but truth be told, my heart was not in it.  There are many things I would like to write, but life has left me numb inside. Dealing with bereavement, insomnia, chronic pain and the issues that these throw up interspersed with “normal” life has left me exhausted and drained.

I haven’t been able to bake, which rules that subject out, and I am struggling to find inspiration. And so, for the sake of keeping this blog going, I am putting a few words down.

Frost

Have you ever looked at frost?  I mean really looked at frost…..how does it form the patterns it does?  This is the frost on  my car windscreen – it looks like someone painted fern fronds in ice!

Sometimes you just have to stop and breathe. Beauty in the small things.

Choice

You don’t need me to tell you there is a lot going on in the world.

I believe we gain nothing from attacking others for their opinions and beliefs.  We can all work together with what we have and do our damndest to make it great. Or we can ruin everything. It’s a choice.

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, have a peaceful day 🙂

Rays of Sunlight

Rays of sunlight coming through the trees on a cold, frosty morning.

I went for a walk

There are few things that are better for restoring peace to the soul than a walk on a cool, blue-sky, sunny day.  All the better if there are trees and water.

I hope you all have a lovely, peaceful day 🙂

Looking back

#sadness #nostalgia #loss

Today is tinged with sadness. Remembering loved ones lost over this year, lives changed by force of circumstance.

Hold on to those you love, hold on to everything good in your lives because you never know when it will be taken.
