The exquisite beauty of resilience

July 17, 2014 By Karen Main 2 Comments

resilience

The breeze on my cheek, The day gloomy and grey. My walk would be brisk, To keep the chill of Winter at bay. It was a street I had walked, Many, many times before. Tidy lawns, pretty flowers, Brightly painted front doors. With a hop, skip and jump, I bounded along. No dawdling today, No […]

It is Beautiful to Love the Ordinary

Visit me today and you would see a bizarre collection proudly sitting on my buffet.   Weeds, Sticks, feathers, rocks, blades of grass, petals, leaves………..

My little bunch of Bliss

October 21, 2013 By Karen Main 7 Comments
