Waiting for the next supply of courage

'Courage comes and goes hold on for the next supply"

messy expressy..... Lovin What is.. book of days

I couldn't sleep last night and pottered in my craft space completing a wee book that i'd wanted to complete for some time.....i may bind it today although I am hoping i will not be doing that at 3a.m. in the morning because of my insomnia!my arting has been kinda messy in my book of days and a4 journal.. not pretty but expressy i think....I don't feel like myself..I don't know why..i have more energy,and life's o.k...but i'm restless and my 'down on myself' thoughts are running havoc!I'm sooo hoping Chel returns from footy early so i can persaude him to walk with me up to the farm and woods...When i looked at my completed spread for the week i felt a little downhearted...i am soo trying to love what is...but 'it was hard to 'breathe' last night and i was so conmscious of time and the fact i have to strengthen my resolve and take my little flower and heart bursting with love into the week again.

Book of Days

t was good to get my journal prepped for Effy's Book of Days....I am looking ofrward to taking it easy with this project following guidance from Effy and doing a spread when i feel i want to or need to without pressure... my word for 2012 is Breathe....and breathe i will...

Justice for Stephen Lawrence

Today two of the individuals responsible for Stephen Lawrences murder 18 years ago were found guilty of his murder and given prison sentences.I remember the profound effect Stephen's murder had on the community ...it was two months after my own son was born and i still feel very emotional when i hear about it and the institutional racism that was rife in the police force at that time.I hope the others responsible are also brought to justice.Stephen's mother and family have been so courageous to never give up and pursue this.

BREATHE

Hoping to join in with Effy's Book of Days and my word for 2012 is 'breathe'.....

Just take a minute...........

Onwards and upwards.......

I have been establishing some balance in my life..............I have been recovering from some minor health issues that have reminded me that happiness is about living in the present and being soo grateful for all the lessons life brings us......I am committing to living life with less emphasis on the past and 'loving what is' to reduce the stress i all to often feel... onwards and upwards it is.
