“A lot of people
Talk to animals,
But not enough of us listen.
Because animals do talk to us,
With their eyes,
With their movement,
And their energy,
A language that humans
So often forget or dismiss.
Yet, energy is the most
Powerful and ancient
Universal language on earth
And we must reawaken,
Relearn the rhythms,
Get out of our heads,
And mostly remember
To listen.”

“This year,
Carry your aliveness
Around like flowers
Bursting from
Open ribs
And scatter those seeds
Across so many
Miles and roads
That others
Pick them up
Along the way
So they too
Can remember
How to bloom
As though our
Wild earth
Depended on it.
Because it does.”

“Be at peace,
Tempest tossed seas of soul,
Give me rest,
From doubt, and fear
Sun find my face,
Light find my heart,
Song find my story,
Smile find my face,
Be at peace,
Be at peace,
For my life is finite,
And these storms,
Have raged too long,
Even winter,
Must surrender spring.”

“Fairy dust and candlelight,
The sun has set, turned to night.
Count your blessings one by one,
Say goodnight, this day is done.”

I wanted to mark my last post of the year with a chosen image from the lovely @lahollings. Rachel’s beautiful photography is a constant source of delight for me and whenever I’ve shared her work on a post or via a story it always receives a huge wave of admiration from you. This year she has certainly excelled herself and many of you commented that her imagery resembled old master paintings.
.
.
So as this is my last post of the year, I would like to take the opportunity to extend my heartfelt appreciation to you all. Thank you to every single one of you who follows - both silently and visibly - and for all your generous likes and beautiful comments. These are hugely cherished and never taken for granted. My immense gratitude for all the lovely direct messages, story responses and for sending me images, posts or words that you have come across and wished to share with me. I’ve been overwhelmingly touched that you have thought of me in those moments. Thank you also to those who have reposted or shared images or words from posts that have particularly resonated with you or have simply shared your love of the account. You have certainly blessed me with many wonderful surprises.

Connection means everything and it has been the greatest joy to have found that through this medium. I feel like I have a host of world wide pen friends (if you are old enough like me to know what they are).
.
.
Finally I wish you all every happiness this Christmas. Like the quote, may we take the time to count our blessings especially if we have had to change our festive season plans (À Bientôt Paris). We can create magic wherever we are….🧚🏻🕯

“Go and love someone exactly as they are. And then watch how quickly they transform into the greatest, truest version of themselves. When one feels seen and appreciated in their own essence, one is instantly empowered.”

“I can live alone, if self-respect, and circumstances require me so to do. I need not sell my soul to buy bliss. I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give.”

"I am waiting for the apologies
You owe yourself,
The beg for forgiveness
To the body that has
Kept you alive. Too often
You point your fingers
At the flaws you think you find,
Too often you tear down
When you should appreciate.
Tell your legs you love them
For the roads they have
Walked you down,
Tell your arms
How thankful you will remain
For all they’ve helped you carry.
I cannot abide the insults
Thrown at the body
That holds you;
Each piece is perfect
And deserves
To be told
So.”

“The moment when,
After many years of hard work
And a long voyage
You stand in the centre of your
Room, house, half-acre, square mile,
Island, country,
Knowing at last how you got there,
And say, I own this,
.
Is the same moment when the trees
Unloose their soft arms from around you,
The birds take back their language,
The cliffs fissure and collapse,
The air moves back from you like a wave
And you can’t breathe.
.
No, they whisper. You own nothing.
You were a visitor,
Time after after time, climbing the hill,
Planting the flag, proclaiming.
We never belonged to you.
You never found us.
It was always the other way round.”

“The greatest conversations and pieces of art carry the force of raw and real thought behind them. When someone’s truth is released, it sends a soft exhale across the collective. The world is always hungry for beautifully imperfect beings, telling it how it is, and exactly the way it feels. Life is too short to pretend. Be real. Lay your armour down.”

“Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn’t have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn’t have to be a walk during which you’ll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but ‘steal’ some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.”

“Never let a day pass
Without looking for the good,
Feeling the good within you,
Praising, appreciating, blessing
And being grateful.
Make it your life commitment
And you will stand in utter awe
Of what happens in your life.”
