I read this today and fell in love with the words...they seemed to resonate very deeply with me (except for the part about being quiet in public, hee hee) - I didn't write it, so if anyone knows who did, please let me know so I can share here.
It is school holidays here, and I am enjoying being with the girls, sitting by the open fire, watching movies (last night we watched 'Chocolat' for the umpteenth time), op-shopping today, with a beautiful lunch of Chinese dumplings...these are the times I cherish...no plans, just kicking back, taking it slow and enjoying the company of my family and friends.
Yay...what a fabulous read..magical indeed....and yes i agree..very beautiful!And wow Tina..what a gorgeous photo of you..pure poetry!! Thanks for adding such magic to my day...shine on sister!!

ReplyDeleteit's beautiful.
Tina, this takes one back to childhood! All of this I have done and some, I still do! :))) Yesterday, my hubby and I made the gooiest and yummiest s'mores ever! Only this time, I ate mine from a delicate rose china plate! :)))
ReplyDeleteI too have watched "Chocolat" A million times! I absolutely adore that movie!
yes, beautiful, dreamy words...thanks for sharing them Tina! wishing you a beautiful week,xo nat
ReplyDeleteLovely... and that is so you, and so me! And she's the kind of girl who holds the view that the stars are God's daisy chain, that rabbits are gnomes in attendance on the Fairy Queen, and that every time a fairy blows its wee nose a baby is born, which, as we know, is not the case... yes, we share so much in common. Come to Hollow Woods, crickets are lighting up the magic lantern! ;)

I LOVE this! It resonates with me too....simply magical! That is something beautiful to read whenever we need a reminder to just be who we are....and I have a confession to make....I've never seen the movie Chocolat....I will have to do that this summer.
