I write this upon the heels of a crisp October morning walk. Midstream, in Autumnal bliss here on the West Coast, my mood vacillates between appreciation and grief. My eyes drink in the beauty of the fall colour palette and yet I mourn summer’s passing every year. She gave us a good ride over the… Continue reading Corona Coping

I’m Sorry, Please Forgive Me
“Be at peace Dear One. You are beautiful just the way you are. All of your thoughts of imperfection, of not being enough, of being less than, of being fat, of being ugly, of being unworthy to take the big bite out of life’s cake…are just thoughts.

If you have a garden, spring can bring early cold weather bounty like kale and spinach but you don’t have to be a gardener to enjoy the healthful benefits of some very common early spring plants. In gardener’s language, these are more commonly referred to as weeds but if you get to know them better, you may want to keep a few around for their beneficial qualities.
