Every minute someone leaves this world behind.
We are all in "the line" without knowing it.
We never know how many people are before us.
We can not move to the back of the line.
We can not step out of the line.
We can not avoid the line.
So while
Grace
Grace is the presence of God. Anyone experiencing this amazing state knows beyond all doubt that this is so. They may not see it necessarily as an overtly spiritual experience, but will know that something profound has touched their lives.
Today is 'International Women's Day'
Keep 'Holding Steady' and focussed on what you believe in, whatever the weather and however much the boat rocks. The flowers will grow and they have never let us down.

From the moment you were born,
your death has walked beside you.
Though it seldom shows its face,
you still feel its empty touch
when fear invades your life,
or what your love is lost
or inner damage is incurred...
Yet when destiny draws you
into
Women are the heart and spine of a pulsating earth at the center of the universe.
We are the mothers, the grandmothers, the great-grandmothers, the creative minds in a universe which often fails to see the contributions we make.
We are the homem

Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin
In 1927, a heartwarming photograph captured the real-life duo behind the beloved characters of Winnie the Pooh and Christopher Robin. The image shows a young Christopher Robin Milne, the son of author A.A. Mi

Keep this simple habit
Right when you wake
On a new-month morn
Say “Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit!”
Welcome, February!
Saying “Rabbit Rabbit Rabbit” aloud upon waking on the first day of a new month is an old charm to e
As you go to bed,
lay down your world-weary head,
and carry into slumber,
wishes you hope will lie ahead.
And in the earliest morning, when at first you wake,
say 'rabbit, rabbit, rabbit'
to usher in much better times
and a lucky break
The Truth Is We Outgrow Those Who Don’t Know How to Love Us
The truth is, we outgrow those who don’t appreciate us—those who are indifferent to our presence and comfortable with our absence. We outgrow those who allow the distance between us to
We are divine beings in a state of recovery,
re-discovering our divinity,
winning back ourselves from states of delusion.
However, the mind is very much a key player
in the drama called life, because without it,
the consciousness cannot experience
Beware of people whose spiritual degrees/credentials come only from study /courses.
Look at those who have learned/improved based on their own experiences, not just reading/listening to others' experiences. These people know suffering first hand. T

like salt in a weakened broth.
What you held in your hand,
what you counted and carefully saved,
all this must go so you know

Peace Of Mind
My thoughts are far from the universe
Though I live in a world that's so diverse
My mind is in a deep space of fantasy
Where I can always count on my dependency.
I'm certainly not used to talking much
Nevertheless, I do think a lot
The sun is still rising,
the wind is still blowing,
and out here in the wild,
you are growing.
And there might be days
where you might struggle to feel it’s true,
and you might struggle to trust
that here in the wilderness,

Not every perceived challenge we meet in life
is an obstacle we must overcome.
You see, when we hit a stumbling block
or a bump in the road or a brick wall,
we are usually already
tired, exhausted and overwhelmed.
So maybe the stumbling block is n

Created at Little Milford woods
Definitely had some collapses with this one. Previous to this work I've made pieces to test the strength of the mud/clay that I gather from the river nearby. This shows it well, I used it to stick the s
Deep in the forest there stood
A tree whose heart beat in the winter wood
Who understood everything that was bad
And everything that was good.
It extended long arms to woo you
As the winter wind blew and blew

I hope my daughter is beautiful
in the wildest of ways
like tree roots

fierce, not cute
