So I took a workshop recently, it actually ends tomorrow sadly. It has been quite beneficial for my soul. I climbed a tree and walked a very shaky rope! The height doesn't bother me, but the climbing of the tree was hard for me. Mainly cause I am too darn weak to lift my butt up but also because I couldn't see or feel where the next thing was to hold on to. I managed to get up.
I love trees, I think everyone knows that, they are soothing for my soul, so being in them and with them was awesome. If I could live in a tree I would. Add water and it's perfect! Lucas and I went to Cape Breton for Thanksgiving weekend. This trail is one of my favourites. It is completely in the woods and has a waterfall at the end.
It was so peaceful as there wasn't anyone else there but us. There are bridges in place to cross over to the other side......
Finally the waterfall. What beauty!!
When I am in the woods, I feel at peace, I feel alive, I feel love, love of this planet, this universe, love of God. After the last workshop, I took the day off and went to spend a few hours in the woods on PEI. Being that is is fall, the leaves were at their best. I went alone at MacPhail's homestead. Such beauty and peace! It was wonderful for my soul!
Happiness!!
I call this picture my stairway to heaven. I am sure this is what heaven is like, beautiful, peaceful and probably has rivers of chocolate.... :-)
This marvelous creature is hanging on for dear life, which is how I feel some days, hanging by a thread.... life trying to knock me over, but I manage to still stand and keep on trucking.
The love of my life used to say he admired that about me, that shit happened all the time, but somehow I went to bed at night and got up the next morning to do it all over again. I guess he is right. Even though sometimes it feels like too much and I want to give in and let it swallow me up, I don't..... I have a rest and face the day again tomorrow. Just like I have faced every day without him for the last 6 months. I miss you my love.....
Right now I am in a place where there are just not enough hours in a day or days in the week to do everything I want to do. I so wish I didn't have to work for a living. I am sure I could keep busy all the time with all the stuff I want and have to do. This blog being one of those things. Spending time in nature being another, knitting slippers, baking healthy foods, exercising more, reading more, taking more baths, writing more letters.... Perhaps I need to just pick one thing to do every day. Today I wrote a letter, wrote in the blog and bought yarn. I will start my slippers as I listen to Nana Mouskouri's Christmas album, I also need to get in the Christmas spirit. My tree is outside. It will come in tomorrow I guess because after all tomorrow is another day.....
