Alice & this looking glass....

I'm all the way over here

You're all the way over there

Then I say something you like, you loathe, you laugh at...

... maybe you even shed a tear

I love your images, your recipes and the way your day to day struggles mirror mine

I love that we can marvel at global similarities in the midst of comparative prose

I love your photos, your lucky junk finds, your taste in clothing, your pain and your voice

I think about you when I see things you might like

I hook up with you on Instagram... you know ... as you do

You leave a thoughtful, cheeky, self deprecating comment on one of my posts

You reference your truth and it's a mirror to mine, a challenge to mine... 

..... a new perspective even

Your talent inspires me and your authenticity is a benchmark

You talk of apple pies, mountains, stitches and love

I talk of them too

The connections are like dew drops on a spider web

Fragile, beautiful, real... but evaporative

You know me - or at least the parts of me I share

Maybe you even know me better through that which I omit

I'm here and I'm so glad you are too

It's all different and yet the same

It's all frivolous and yet serious

It's all truth and yet edited

This stuff we share on the net

This stuff we give away

This stuff we contribute

This stuff we create

This stuff we critique

This stuff we devour

I've been immersed in it and when I take a moment to step back 

and see it from a distance... it simply blows me away

Peoples I hope you've had a great week thus far?

I've had newcomers comment and private emails from people

with crazy, stunning, stupendous feedback.

I've had ideas galore.

I've had an exam and I aced it! (Yay for me!)

I've stumbled on new blogs - and I've left a few behind 

(does that happen to you too?)

I've had family truths bring about greater strengths within.

Wowsers... I am blessed

Sending you all some of my Eternal Sunshine.... & big love.

Lilies for Kashy...

I have a bestest buddy who lives just around the corner from me.

Her name is Jax. Coincidentally she has a bestest Mum who also lives just around the corner

from me. Her name is Jill. Do I love living near two rather fabulous ladies? 

Well of course I do.... BUT... (there's always a but isn't there?) Jax has a sister you see. Which means (obviously) that Jill has another daughter. 

A bestest sister. 

A bestest daughter. 

Her name is Kashy and she does not live just around the corner from me. 

She lives in the green and verdant county of Devon, in England.

Kashy has been over to visit with her husband Richard. They love Australia and they've had a marvellous vacation. Sadly though they return today. I'm off in an hour to say good bye.

I'm pretty crap with farewells. I want Kashy to live around the corner from me.

Then all our goodbye's would be temporary.

Lovely lady

I miss you already

We miss you already

Australia misses you already

As we discussed Lilies are traditionally given to mark birth and death.

Well I love them and I know you do too. 

So here's to the death of one vacation and the birth of

planning for the next one! 

Blessings, Light and Love... to you and yours.
