Ah yes, wonderful evocations of the heart-spirit embodied/held/expressed by the objects we cherish and keep within sight, in our palm at teatime or on the wall drawing a gaze or grazing peripheral awareness as we go about our days. It’s lovely see these glimpses of the simple beauties in and around your homespace; thanks for sharing both words and pictures.
A beautiful read, thank you. A new notebook and the ritual of writing is balm for me too. You’ve described the duality of this time of year so well. “The gentle, insistent act of repeating” is ringing in my ears. A lovely reminder of ritual and our instinctive need for it.
