My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

the value of friendship

I bought this delightful little verse book awhile back... inscribed in the front :
To Dear Frank from Bernice
with every good wish for everything that is nice
25-5-23

well, my dear Nan's birthday was May 25 - making this a little extra special

I have felt this blessing of being able to respond to new friendships very
strongly lately, for I have lost many old and valued connections during this
trying spring. I thank God far more earnestly for such blessings than for my
daily bread, for friendship is the bread of the heart

That is so precious! Thankyou ms*robyn for sharing that. It's something we need to hang on to in our hearts.

My prayers are with yours, losing a loved one is painful, and the sting last a long time.
