RISK

And then the day came,
when the risk
to remain tight
in a bud
was more painful
than the risk
it took
to Blossom

Winter is upon us

What better way to mark it than with a quick catch up with Vivaldi - The Four Seasons Winter....enjoy a quiet few minutes letting this music resonate in your soul...I suggest sipping a cup of English Breakfast along with it!!

This morning I struggled, I mean I really, really struggled...
...to hear the alarm
...to get out of bed
...to get dressed
...to make my coffee
...to put on my boots
...to get in the car
...to stay awake
...to get to Rugby
BUT...
...it was so worth it!!!

Thoughts for today...

I have some amazing friends & spent some time over a lovely cuppa with one of my gorgeous friends this morning. She is a high-flyer corporate girl who has just been through yet another difficult time in her life. She is so amazingly strong and beautiful despite all that is thrown at her. It caused me to stop & ponder for a moment:

Lift your face
towards the sun
let the rays
warm you
wrap around
your body
cocoon your soul 
 make you safe.

We need to treasure & look after our friendships each & every day, through the good & the bad, in the celebrations that make life what it is & in the dreary & the mundane. Take just a moment, pause & be thankful for all your beautiful friends today.

Monday Musings...


When we make things...for the people who matter to us, we make something that will live on beyond us.
