Debra Pittam I love taking photos of the beauty that is everywhere. Some good, some not, but the process of noticing and capturing is the same either way.

Boundaries can be difficult to set because people tend not to like them. But they are so important to our wellbeing. Perhaps there is comfort in the fact that they are difficult for many of us 😊

I love this quote so much! “what’s the greatest lesson a woman should learn? that since day one. she’s already had everything she needs within herself. it’s the world that convinced her she did not.” Rupi Kaur

If things feel overwhelming practicing mindfulness can seem like a bridge too far sometimes. Instead, try walking around and noticing the details in things. In nature is best. I do this with flowers. 😊💐🌻

Seeking with people, places and/or with nature can be really helpful in uncertain times like the state of the world right now. Just noticing what is around us can be enough. “In nature, nothing exists alone.”

The fear of fearing the thing can be bigger than the thing we fear.

I dislike leeches. I mean, who doesn’t? I also have a significant and possibly irrational fear of being covered in them. Perhaps a bit more niche. When encountered in the past I have been known to strip in public for an inspection at the first sign of them.

On a recent walk by a river after rain (what was I thinking 🙄). One hour in and one to go, leeches in their numbers began to crawl up our boots and legs. We must have picked off 20 -30 each.

But we had to keep going and manage them. So we did and supported each other. It wasn’t nice (really not), but the fear, that I feared would be debilitating, was manageable. It reminds me that we are probably all more capable, reliant and stronger in hard moments than we perhaps believe we would be.

But I am never going for a bush-walk without a pot of salt in my bag ever again!

I follow many many women who are “out there doing things”. My socials are full to bursting with inspiring , difficult, outspoken and active women. They subsume the patriachal noise. For me, it’s important to see, every day, what women are saying and all the things that women are doing. It reminds we that if we each keep on doing something, no matter how small we can improve the lot if women everywhere in the end.

Same tree different days. The only certain thing in life, is that uncertainty and change are constants. It can help I think, to find something to connect to that is generally unchanging, or that is solid among the changes around it. I visit this tree often on my walks. It anchors and grounds me and gives me something to appreciate. Do you have an example?

Waiting in ED for a second infusion for cellulitis. The gift that lymphodema keeps giving! Looking through photos’s and quotes to pass the time. Photo’s are lovely memories and the quote is such wisdom 😊 ”I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.”
