In between. This is how I feel. In-between seasons. I'm still in-between time zones. I left a sunny summer behind in Australia. Today it is 38 degrees there. I'm currently at -2 where I am but at least the fog has finally lifted to reveal a sunny day. People sometimes ask me, why did I… Continue reading in between

looking ahead …
At the end of a year, we look back. We can see it all because we have lived it. We review the year just past, perhaps with some judgement, perhaps even some regrets. As we look ahead to a New Year, what do we see? It's an unknown place, the future. There is a new… Continue reading looking ahead …
your heart knows the way
A second chance. Starting over. A new beginning. These are our choices to make. At any stage of life, there is the potential to become something different. Something new. To become someone new. Or as a dear friend has said to me, 'No, it's still you ... it's just another version of you'. In my… Continue reading your heart knows the way
daring to dream
Sometimes in life, things will collide. One will give meaning to the other. It will add a new perspective, and perhaps bring resolution.My first thing is that I recently completed a training and was asked to write a testimonial. It took me a little while and some thought to write one that I was happy… Continue reading daring to dream
a poem
Sometimes words fall out of me, from my mind and onto the screen. Although, I'm not sure they do come from my mind because they are just 'there'. There is no conscious 'thinking' that I'm aware of. Since words simply appear, I'm not really sure what to do with them. But I've decided to share… Continue reading a poem
time flies …
Today, I took the bus. I don't usually, because I mostly drive where I need to go. But today it was easier and more convenient not to have to worry about parking. The reason I'm telling this story is that I have a free bus pass. You know, for older people. Actually, anyone over 50… Continue reading time flies …
reasons to write – 2
For a personal blog, which this is, the reasons to write are all about me! Writing here is somewhere I can be most free. I am free to decide what I say and how. Free to share as much or as little as I want. And I'm able to decide why I write. My reasons… Continue reading reasons to write – 2
reasons to write – 1
Part reflection or musings, part journal or memoir, and part, "What am I doing with my life?" These are some reasons that I want to write. Sometimes, they are the reasons that I must write. Not as a compulsion, I don't think, but certainly as an instinct.Because following my instincts or intuition has become a… Continue reading reasons to write – 1
Resilience
The human body is resilient. Well, it can be. A few weeks ago I was so weak that I couldn't walk. Now though, I am back to feeling whatever normal looked like before I fell ill. But the experience reminded me of a couple of things. Firstly, that our bodies can only look after us… Continue reading Resilience
giving and receiving
I've been thinking about gifts lately. And about showing love. Now, this is a clear Soultree connection. Because I chose Park Hyo Shinโs song, 'Show Your Love' to reflect what I wanted this year of 2022 to be about. Instead of the usual Word Of The Year, I chose a song title from his Second Story… Continue reading giving and receiving
