Yay!

Musing In The Grey
We haven’t really got out of bed today.
Obviously there’s been breakfast. And coffee. That’s just been the results of a mad dash to the kitchen and back before we get too chilly…
Such a grey and gloomy old day – hasn’t decided whether it wants to rain yet, but that definitely seems a likelihood. There’s nowhere for us to be today, so wrapping up in a duvet, reading and watching YouTube seems to be the best option.
It’s been a week of fluctuating temperatures, where it’s been hard to choose between a heavy coat and a tshirt for going out. Some days have needed both. I’ve come up against memories of childhood, and had days where I couldn’t be sure of the difference between “getting older” aches and pains, and twinges that perhaps should get further investigation. I’m still standing! Well, lounging around, but you get the point.
Had a truly amazing cupcake the other day – evocative of cheerful indulgence in its proportions and calorie content. I very much enjoyed it, but it was also a bit like swallowing a bag of sugar all at once. Still, a tasty bag of sugar served on a bright and sunshiny plate!
I’ll be watching some catch up TV this afternoon, but for now I’m listening to a bit of Sara Groves… songs of remembering, and songs of hope and moving forward.
Just right for a grey day.
Tell A Better Story
The clock is ticking down on my studies, and I feel the pressure of getting finished when I still don’t have a supervisor in place. Makes it hard to remember what I was excited about when I first started the course…
Then I came across this song, and it reminded me of what I want to bring to the world – to add beauty to lives, and help people to see their story in a better light.
I still don’t know how my story will unfold, and still feel I won’t get to the finish of this section, but the core motivation remains 🙂
Be beautiful ❤
Listen – Can You Hear?
One of my favourite carols (but apologies if you don’t like the different arrangement…)
I decided to bypass all the choirs and soaring arrangements – I just wanted something simple.
It’s a simple story.
A baby, born in a stable.
Born into darkness..
Prince of Peace.
Lord of Life.
As relevant now, as then.
Fall on your knees…
Hear the angel voices..
Can you hear?
Merry Christmas!
