Its been a magpie week. trying to find the shine amongst the weeds

it's been a tough couple of days... However, there are always glimpses of shining moments that make the day sing ever so faintly if you listen hard enough and reach down into your soul. My moments of joy today have come from the slow pace of learning to knit. Sitting still with soft yarn moving through my fingers. In listening to my minou reading 'green eggs and ham' by Dr Seuss in her bed at nap time. Hearing her sweet voice try to recite the prose with intonation giving away her delectable humour. It's been in sitting with friends eating rose geranium cupcakes whilst celebrating 3 years since birth of a little friend. I am trying to navigate these currents waves in my life. Having been shipwrecked in choppy times. It has been a serious case of flotsam and jetsam. Filtering through what's left, restocking what has been lost and finding out what this boat actually looks like. It's hard reflecting on the crevices that have always existed. How to fix them? How to move forward? I need the grace of God. I have the grace of God and yet I find it hard to allow in my life.this needs more pondering. Pondering is always good and always instills a sense of hope in me, deep down, in my core. Another one of those moments. X
