It’s the Little Things 06.11.16

It’s the seemingly simple, downright dreamy, little luxuries that show up during my week and put a smile on my face…

Even in the quietest weeks we can always find something to smile about or be grateful for. It may take a little practice or retraining of your brain – but if you tell yourself you are going to smile this week, I guarantee you will.

So tell me, what little things made you smile this week?

I’d love to know

Monthly Musings: October

img_1881

October has been a quiet old month for me.

Perhaps it’s the shedding of the leaves, the changing of the landscape and the arrival of new colours and cold nights, but I feel slightly nostalgic. Autumn is passing by in a blur of misty mornings and evenings spent snuggling in warm pyjamas.

Maybe this is the calm before the storm (the Christmas storm), or a time to reflect on all that we have experienced this year so far and express thanks and gratitude.

Whether or not you celebrate Thanksgiving and Harvest, how about taking a moment to notice and celebrate the best bits of your world? Here’s mine…

I’d like to say thank you to all my readers and I am grateful for all that I am learning on this ‘blogging’ journey!

This month has been my quietest so far since starting back in February. But I still love it! I love connecting with you all. Thanks for being my tribe.

As we head into November, here’s one final thought to leave you with…

Even though…

 

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Even though I am just me

Even though I feel overwhelmed

Even though I have little time

Even though I’m wondering, bumbling, finding my way

Even though the fear of failure is waiting for me

Even though they say it’s been done, over and over

I’m keeping on

I’m inhabiting the quiet me shaped space that beckons,

“Come, come, come”

It’s The Little Things 30.10.16

It’s the little things that have soothed my soul, kickstarted my karma and restored my faith in the ways of the universe this week.
