Some days it's back to the basics, back to what is simple, honest, true, back to what really matters to find your way back to you 💛

Ps. I've fallen in love with Calendula this season. It's pungent sweet smell, it's promise to soothe, and it's ever brilliant colors have me swooning and checking for new blooms every time I walk by ❤️

Today I saw an old friend
from my past
She barely stopped,
she was moving so fast.

Hurrying and shushing
and looking quite flushed
The frazzled kind,
not contoured with blush.

I had to double take
her brows in a frown
Her clothes mis-matched,
her hair in a crown.

She carried herself differently
tired and raw
A beauty that shined
more visibly than before.

She swayed side to side
a baby on her hip
as she stared in the distance
chewing her lip.

I decided to approach
and reconnect with this girl
To remind her that she
was conquering the world.

She told me her life
had completely changed
That the pieces of her
had been rearranged.

Pieces left for months
on the floor
so it took her a while
to feel whole once more.

Then she said, “I get it now,
this is who I’m meant to be”,
and I actually believed her
as she stared back at me.

She was tired yet knowing.
A world of content
In a place so new,
for where she was meant.

I took a deep breath
as I left our embrace,
from the girl in the mirror,
with a smile on my face.

Process.

I've been noticing lately that there's a part in the process where I wonder why I decided to do this.... But after continuing, and pushing through I often find myself delighted by the outcome and proud of the hard work.

At the same time, there are times to take a break, redirect the energy, change plans, or the outcome can be a cacophony!!

It' a fine tuning of intuition, listening to that real gut feeling.

Just enjoying some time "au natural" while the grass is dry! 💕

The fall equinox is a few weeks away, however if you live in the North I'm almost certain you can feel the shift in seasons over the past days.

Autumn is coming.

A time of letting go,
A beginning of new projects,
A natural shift from out to in, shorter days and longer nights,
From bare skin to sweaters, and covered toes.
Salads to soups,
perennial pruning,
and processing fresh summer fruits.

As we say goodbye to the last days of summer there's a sweetness in the savouring of moments.
Breathing in the last days of sandals and pons, the last dips, the warm breeze...

Knowing it will all be back, and you will be you, but things will change.

So you plant intentions, and goals, ideas and dreams alongside the garlic.

To harvest when they are ready, when you are ready.

Tucking them in and setting them up for success, and then waiting.. To see which ones grow big and which you let go. ❤️
