I’m writing this on Valentine’s Day Eve (yep, it’s a thing cuz I want it to be!) and over the last week I’ve been finding the hibernating ladybugs of my area throughout my bedroom (in small quantities). While I have glimpsed one or two in past winters, I never gave them a whole lot ofContinue reading “#11 – Love the Earth”

#11 – Love Everything
We all have come from something, from someone’s, from some time. As a parent, child, sibling, niece, step-parent, grandchild, spouse, half-sibling, cousin, step-child and so on, I have experienced most, in not all the roles in the spectrum within a family there are. For now though, the way of loving everything within the role thatContinue reading “#11 – Love Everything”
#11 – Love Your Work
I’ve been reflecting on a particular client I’ve had for 13 years this month. For the duration of my business endeavors I have always sought to strike a balance between having individual clients, working with a small business and having at least one bigger business that I do consistent work with, all those one offContinue reading “#11 – Love Your Work”
#11 – Love Your Community
This morning I was preparing some toast for breakfast and as I spread some peanut butter on it and selected a several years “expired” jar of Ikea marmalade from the pantry to put on top of the peanut butter, my teenager walked out and noticed the jar on the counter. “You know that jar ofContinue reading “#11 – Love Your Community”
#11 – Love What’s Fun
I created a vision board the other day since it’s a new year, though anytime is a good time for a vision board. It had been a few years since I had created one and I felt the calling to make a new one since they really are fun to do. If you’ve never madeContinue reading “#11 – Love What’s Fun”
#10 – Love Everything
These days there seem to be many broken aspects of life wherever we look. I have never liked the idea of being broken, when things break, or having to address anything that’s not in order…I don’t think I’m alone in this stance either! And still, love remains. Whether broken or whole, everything is part ofContinue reading “#10 – Love Everything”
#10 – Love the Earth
This weekend I’ve been spending time at a place called Four Quarters Interfaith Sanctuary in Artemis, PA. It’s been in existence for around 30 years and since its first year the founding folks have been building a stone circle on part of the property that continues each year to draw people to the land toContinue reading “#10 – Love the Earth”
#10 – Love the Unknown
As a singular species, we are unique in the way all other singular species are; in that as much as we know, there is no other species like us. That we share being unique along with all the other different species in the world and yet with some similarities makes what is unknown to usContinue reading “#10 – Love the Unknown”
#10 – Love What’s Fun
On a walk recently, I came upon the fungal specimen (Agaricomycetes, so the nature identifying app Seek told me) pictured above and thanked it for bringing my attention to it. As I continued to walk, delighting in its ability to resemble something other than itself, I began seeing memories from the halcyon days of myContinue reading “#10 – Love What’s Fun”
#10 – Love Your Self
It’s the day before Memorial Day as I write this and there are signs all around of the pending celebratory event. I discovered in some searching that the day was formerly known as Decoration Day because of the decorating of graves that many family members took part in doing after the deaths of loved onesContinue reading “#10 – Love Your Self”
