What Ewe Say...

can and does at times have a life changing effect...

The trick is having the wisdom to know what to say
and knowing when it's the right moment...

Bridging The Gaps...

There are times in life when you become aware of the gaps,
where there are important bits missing.

 Perhaps you experience a certain loneliness, isolation,
 lack of understanding or support.

That's when it's important to "build a bridge"
find a way to span the divide.

 Sometimes the bridge is made of words,
 sometimes it's actions,
and sometimes it's a patient combination....

Sometimes the bridge is  being built from the other side
and you just haven't recognised it...

 but in order for it to be completed,
you have to allow, or make room for the connection.

What Ewe Want...

Is getting what you want what you really want,
or is it  better to get what you need.

In life there is lots of pressure from without and within
to conform to the norm...
Which when examined carefully
isn't ever going to deliver on it's promise...

It's all back to what you value,
and what nurtures your heart.

Sometimes Life's Like...

Making Bread...

You get some 'stuff' together,
all the right sort of ingredients...
then mix and knead.
Place the pretty round lump in a lovey oiled bowl...
covered with a damp tea towel...
somewhere warm and out of the draughts...
(in other words a lovely nurturing environment)

OK...wait...
everything 'proves'...or 'improves'...
Just when it's all big and beautiful and rises to the occasion, guess what?.
Time to knock it back.
That's right
just bang it back down to flat.
knock out all the 'hot air'
Then when its all curled up in a tight little ball
do a bit of shaping.
Leave it for another round of expansion
Then straight into a really hot oven.

 After a time it comes out all beautiful
crunchy, crusty, soft and tender in the centre,
smelling like home and all the best things about simplicity.
Just begging for butter
to become something that we think of as a staple.

Life is full of ups, downs, twists, turns and knock-backs.
And there are plenty of hot spots...

If it's like making bread, in the end it's going to be alright,
it's going to be beautiful...

Just A Reminder...

It's really important, and it's ok...
in the end it will help you do other things well.

Are Ewe Content?...

Sometimes it's necessary to just be...
 knowing  you are content with "the moment".

 Being happy with what you have,
 and who you have around you...
and what's going on,
 even if it doesn't seem very exciting.

Life is always changing
and it goes by so fast,
so settle right down,
 and take in the moments.

Thinking About Transformation...

Wondering about how things change,
and if it's always achieved through personal effort,
 or is it sometimes possible that there are greater unseen  forces at play.
