NOURISH THE MOMENT 💜💜💜

#nourishthemoment

it's the title of a new poem i am working on💜💕💜😊

is it not beautiful:)!?
 i mean the concept of nourishing every single moment of our days, to choose joy to choose hope to choose to see beauty & kindness. 

i've had a few weeks of taking some time off from blogging, just some time for summer and to re-arrange re-consider my home & my habits.

 too long long nature walks in epping forest with lovely podcasts and books. reading book 1 of terry pratchett's discworld (after having read the series of the witches living in this world of magic i was hooked), and it is fantastical wonderfully imaginative. the names of the creatures are such a joy, the carachters (well... the main ones anyways) are adorably quirky.

this image is part of my 
gardeness
self-portrait series

it's taken inside richmond park and its isabella plantation, a wonderful "curated" wild kind of huge garden filled with exotic flowers and trees from all over the world, they have a beautiful nursery in the back as taken care of by a richard  whose been working there for over 50 years💜

our little market on mondays sold these wonders a couple of weeks ago💛
