  • I’ve been thinking

    about  karma, quite a lot lately. Essentially wanting karma to be ready at all times, like my very own Samurai squad. Ready to flatten  the enemy because I’ve  been wronged. And therein lies the crux of  the matter. For who is truly wrong? And what does  wrong  really mean? Wrong according to  my worldview, lens…

  • Every woman

    needs an admirer. Hmm. How about: Every living thing flourishes under the kind eye of an admirer. That’s what I know  to be true. And this is particularly prevalent in my own life at this moment. So, what about your life? Do you know who  your admirers  are? And are you spending sufficient  time with…

  • Opening up

    windows, doors, to let in the  early morning air, thick with promise, abundance. Gently ushering out the staleness of last night’s  breath. Of fear and doubt, those pre-dawn Death Eaters. Opening up, to a new day, Endless possibilities. New friends. New beginnings. A change of pace. A softer life with folds to  luxuriate in. Opening…

  • I notice

    her immediately. Strong arms, open smile. Hair of the raven. Sharp eyes seeking to know, to understand. Unexpected laughter. Wit. I focus my attention. Deeper we go. Athena, Goddess of war. Yes, yes, I see you there, hiding in your ever so sensible shoes, and corporate  blouse. You can’t fool me. I’m with you  on…

  • Seasons change

    as do people. Today the colder air is rolling in. And it reminds me again, how much I love the rain and the cozy hygge winter brings. Candles, pillows, fluffy throws. I’m sure I’ll miss the heat of summer, eventually and the early morning daylight. For now, though I’m luxuriating in the crisper weather. People …

  • The darling switch

    actually exists, Dear Reader, and is in fact fully functional, albeit not well documented, in both the male and female of the species Homosapiens. An oversight  I will now attempt to correct. The trick to enabling said switch is that it’s physicality is inconsequential. Its activation therefore relying, instead on non-mechanical  means. Some say that…

  • And then

    you do it all again. You come on over and flick the switch into overdrive and that good ol’  black magic comes flooding back in. You are magical in your everydaynes like the perfect double espresso, and conversely also in your wildness, your crazy freeness and your amazing playful spirit. A considerate hedonist, perhaps 😉…

  • The trouble with birthdays and other unexpected firmware updates

    Well, for starters it’s that you’ve probably never really considered birthdays to be in the  problematic  category at all, or, by sharp contrast, perhaps you have anchored them in that very category for so long that you literally cannot fathom them to be worthy of any other  type of classification… probably ever. And herein lies …

  • Post 100

    Dear Reader, thank you for dipping in here with me. This water  has helped quench my soul. Sometimes  tiny droplets, often raging oceans, and everything  in between. Thank you, for participating  here, ingesting delicate sips or guzzling gigantic bucketfuls, despite the consequences. So jump aboard, and let’s continue paddling through the next 100 pauses on…

  • Is it beautiful

    where you are? Have you built a life that feeds your soul and spirit? Is there music, and laughter, and kind  words? Is there time to exhale and relax and just be? Is there great food, and parties, and fun? Is there birdsong,  and moody clouds,  and rainy  duvet days? Is there good chocolate, and…
