My Home: Sacred in the Everyday
March 15, 2011
So so good to see you!
I will be on an adventure this week
so less posting.
What I have in mind is
part business, part pleasure and...
wholly RELAXING and REJUVENATING.
Sometimes we need a departure from the everyday to
empty ourselves,
to breathe,
to learn,
and see our lives
with new eyes.
Ya know?
I do love the everyday though!
Just sweeping my kitchen floor can feel sacred.
My house was my studio as I snapped
images for you with the lovely
of the everyday in mind.
an inspiration board: prayers & encouraging words & vintage
prayer books and vintage rosaries bring peace
the mix makes me happy
'they have counted all my bones' cuts me to the soul
a design magazine and the scent of rosemary? mmm mmmm good.
i wear them
black leather
aging pages are beautiful....
anxiety often finds me at night...i cling to such thoughts...
whilst Sandy clings to my desk lamp.
(why oh why would i identify with this squirrel? shrink away!)
words are my life.
Thanks for listening and sharing
a few simple things I
find so lovely.
Any secrets for finding lovely in your daily life?
Peace to you right where you are.

I love your squirrel!! That's so funny that you put that image in there too, amongst the others.
ReplyDeleteI like to sit in my garden in the warmer weather. We have a swing seat, and I sit with a cup of tea and listen the birds and pray and think.
And then I head back into the melee!!
