Always the fresh edge of new rain arriving Andrew. Your words and heart return dry, struggling experience back to saturated, encouraged presence. A friend spoke of her fathers death today while another spoke of her first pregnancy. We sat in the middle. In every way and wondered. Thank-you for spreading wonder.
Thank you Elaine. Life appears to have various phases according to our longevity and for many reasons the decision has made itself. Its the finding a place, packing etc that is quite tedious. ‘The best place for us’ that would be very good. Maggie has spoken of your writing and how it is going well; so continuing good luck with it all. Best wishes.
Thank you so so much. Maggie is a beautiful delight! 🫶🏻 I am very lucky to have met her at that Arvon course last summer. My 89 year old grandmother is moving closer to us and it’s so difficult for her to give up her Leeds home so even though you two are much, much younger, I know it has to be really difficult. Physically and emotionally and especially if there’s downsizing involved. And leaving lovely scenery and gardens and friends. I hope you both get so much joy being closer to your children, though, that it makes up for it. 🥰🥰🥰

I’m sorry you’re having to move home but I hope you find the absolute best place for both of you. 🫶🏻

Grateful for what I find in your beautiful writing. No "constant repetition of the known" there.
