At Christmas, my son called me from an air raid shelter in Ukraine during a bombing raid - not a sentence I ever thought I’d find myself writing, but there you go - and here we are, in undoubtedly difficult and scary times.
I just love Huxleys poem: light sparkles through his words.
I had a 'light' encounter with someone during the week. Laughter's such a tonic, we laughed so much 🤣 like a couple of kids. Shes one of those people who sparks both joy and laughter, although her lifes not always easy. Following on from your post last week, self cares so important, so finding a way to plays essential.
Call me an ostrich, but I don’t devour the news. Headlines pop up, and if I think it’s something worth a read, I will. Current mental health advocacy is don’t watch the news if you suffer from depression (I do) as it can make it worse.
This is such good advice, thank you! I try to do the same but sometimes the headlines online lure me in - and I usually always regret clicking the link to read ❤️
I'm still speechless that a young man such as your son AKA "The Dashing Vicar" ⛪️ has such a position. It speaks volumes and saying he is a credit to you is putting it very mildly.
I can't imagine how you feel at times, I get weepy at the thought of having a night away from my son so if Axel grew up and was apart of an organisation helping vulnerable people IN A WAR ZONE I'd be on edge constantly!
Thank you Siobhan. I have fairly recently begun my own spiritual journey, or I should say realised the journey, and feel I have reached the beginning of understanding. Everything you described resonates with me. From memory the words of another song come to mind ...we are all one and life flows on within you or without you.
Hard as it is to square, the Universe doesn't make mistakes. Love.

Oh yes, laughter is the best medicine! And self care. Thank you ❤️

I watch very little news, cos its heartbreaking. Something light and frothys more to my liking
