Think good thoughts, they become YOU.
Today I'm carving out a sweet space of stillness because the world around me seems too harried and it is making me tired.
I'm going within, to confront me.
I will have some stern words for her, tell her to let go, to slow down, to be present.
She'll listen, I know her well.
The spark of divinity within her always demands to be recognized. How about you? How do you honour yourself?

Happy International Women's Day xo to all my chicas.
{I'm fond of three. Three images above; Polaroid taken in Jordan, 35mm shot in Hawaii, the third an image by Elena Rego of LunarMusings. All three and many more hang inside my closet to inspire me each morning.}
You know what I love? We are thinking almost the same thing at the same time. My last post was about quiet and yours is about stillness. It just feels right. Deep breaths and find the center . . .
love to you. Think I'll pin some pictures in my closet, too. It will bring me back to decorating my locker in high school, which was a good thing, indeed.

How do I honour myself?
I'm not sure, I try to make time for myself each day, but that is more from necessity. It keeps me grounded.
Perhaps it is the same thing.
love you

My eye went immediately to that photograph of the beach. Sigh...that looks like heaven! I can see how looking at it would take you to a serene, happy place.
You're absolutely right about needing a space for stillness. I feel like I've been missing that in my own life lately. Maybe I'll pick up a scented candle or two this weekend and have a quiet night in with a sketchbook or a good book. Thanks for the reminder that it's important to honour oneself.
