Good Morning!!
Beautiful, isn't it?! It certainly was - Beautiful enough to go outside into the garden barefoot to grab a snapshot of it, despite the cold... and it WAS COLD this morning. It still is. The wind has that bitter Winter chill in it... but, that aside it is a wonderful sight every single day and I consider myself blessed to have views of both the sunrise and the sunset from my back garden.
So, the weekend has come and gone - not that I mind... I actually quite like Mondays (I suppose I am one of those glass half full weirdos, lol) but yes, I like the prospect of the whole new week in front of me... especially when I have a lot on the go, which I do at the moment. Purpose. It feels good.
This week being a little different and feeling particularly special, because it is great to be back... writing here again. I wish I had a clone lol, or perhaps just a few more hours in each day so that I could better get to all the things I wish to get to - this always being one of them.
Sometimes though, I think we as people are too hard on ourselves in general. I know I am. Sometimes, I want to write but I don't actually have anything specific that I want to write about and so... I don't, because there is this little voice in my head which tells me that I have set the bar at a certain point with regards to my writing over the years and that I best keep that up...
The thing is though, that sometimes I just want to blab on about little and nothing - just for the pleasure of writing and expressing whatever it is that I may have on my mind at the time. We should all feel the freedom to do so and I am not sure why I have put this "unspoken" sort of limitation on myself in the past... but what I do know is that I am going to try an eradicate it moving forward.
Without any specific subject matter, I want to be able to write. I suppose that might sound a little bit silly... but it isn't actually. Spaces like this are supposed to be about both sides of the coin. A blog can be about anything, right?! Even if it is just random brain fart thoughts from a warped mind and heart, lol!
I have about a gazillion things running around my head at any given time and sometimes I just want to get some of it out. Share it - whether anybody responds to it or not, is less of the point than the simple act of expressing it.
Today for instance. A moment this morning. Sunrise. Something so magnificent that the world is graced with every single day and whilst I have always thought the sunrise and sunset to be beautiful... it is only in the last few years that I have truly begun to stop - and take it all in. To consume it and all the energy which it embraces if it is afforded more than a millisecond of our time. It offers us so much perspective and it creates balance in our minds and our lives.
And with that random parting thought, I wish you all a beautiful and blessed Monday and week ahead! I have a lot I want to do, so I had best get on with it - but I am glad that I braved the cold earlier this morning to appreciate what mother nature greeted me with.
❤❤❤
Until next time...
Much Love from Country Bumpkinland, South Africa xxx
