My shadow and me playing in the sunlight.

The moss’s playtime with the sun was exquisite this morning.

Riding the wave

Working on my tapestry every day now to get it finished in time. Focusing on this work makes me sense I picked up where I left off 12 years ago.

Paul asked me if I could fix his jeans. Fixed! 😊

Years ago someone told me I could not have what I so desired, because I was only still half a moon and not a full one. This and many other experiences leading up to that moment made me make the same conclusion. The years following I worked hard to become a full moon. I ran after a carrot that was seemingly tied to a stick in front of me. I ran and ran, reaching out to grab the carrot, but I was never fast enough and my arms were never long enough. In this state I was very vulnerable. It was oh so easy to fall for the many false ones that were keen to sell me their ware. Keen to seduce me into buying their merchandise. Seducing me into thinking that they had what I wanted and that they could give me what I oh so desired.

Perfect work space for the morning! 😊 I’m allowed back at my favourite café in the neighbourhood, The Esther Café. The restrictions have lifted and my body is still free from those cloudy vaccinations. I can’t help but feel a bit of a victory here. 😊

My garden is not big, but it provides 🙂
