Summer Stillness


If I look at my calendar the year looks a little empty...
but within my ~experience of life~ there has been fullness overflowing.

what a year it has been!
there is a smooth stream of energy pouring into my life... and i am letting it move through me... and wash me in freshness.

life keeps changing in subtle ways that add up to big shifts within the very core of me.
i am grateful.
this is a season of stillness and reflection. and i am right where i am supposed to be.

i am enjoying another summer in this beautiful house on woodland street.
savoring the moments.
there is nothing to DO on the house anymore. its done. and with a .For Sale. sign in the front yard there are no big home improvement projects going on. hahaha isn't that fun. i'm just enjoying the place. watering the flowers on my front porch. changing the messages on the chalkboard. sipping coffee on the daybed in the morning. watching neighbors wave to me in the evening while they slip into maddonnas next door. surely my spirit planned this! ahahha
a summer to just enjoy and be still here.
this has been MY retreat house ya know.
more than anything it has been a place for me to retreat and grow. evolve. muse. enjoy. create.
and to share it with anyone that walked in the door.

I have also been out of the house a lot. the part of me that has moved on...
when i am here i am enjoying the space... but i am often itchy to get out and go elsewhere. expereince the next thing. and i find myself heading out and moving in new directions.

i drive down streets and see the new visions in my windowshield.
it all feels ok. it feels really ok.

and i know that life runs in cycles. this season will transition into another... and i will travel along the wheel of life.
i like it.
