“The magic moments are when you decide
to see and hear and remember and taste everything in the whole world,
choosing to believe art and creativity are all around you,
unfolding & beckoning you”

" To learn the clarity of its call.
That is wintering."
{Katherine May}
Our morning walk,
the world cloaked in white.
Inhaling the crisp winter air,
feeling the invigorating energy of this season.
We walk, we talk, we look, we listen.
I stop to take photos, he rambles along ahead of me,
pulled by the curiosity of our pup.
A desire to linger in this place for hours,
wrapped in the silent mystery of the present moment.

" That charm of stillness...
a hush in which something gathers."
These last December days
filled with silence and stillness,
a pause after so much fullness.
Finding myself lost in the whisper of turning pages,
a sigh of contentment and pleasure.
