Thought for Sunday: Glorious sound to wake to this morning as I can hear the waves crashing on the shoreline. Constant, determined, intense, beautiful. Listening to the sound of waves is one of the most relaxing things you can do, I’ve heard, but I also find them energising.

As its Mothers Day here in the UK , I started thinking of the feminine line in a families legacy. What our ancestors went through and changed for us as females today.

I can vote, I can get my own mortgage, I can own my own home, I have choice, I can study at college, university, I can travel alone, I can speak my mind, voice my opinions, wear trousers, I can get divorced (and did to be fair) and many more.

So many changes, driven by those who went before and some of these changes happened in my own lifetime. I give thanks to those strong, independent, future seekers who changed the world in such positive ways, that has made my life so much easier to live, and for my daughter to live. The lessons I learned from my mother, some good, many to be shed as not serving me but mainly one of love, have helped me to shape how I want to live my life.

I am lucky enough to be a mum, many folks don’t have that option and I know today can be one of pain.

What legacy do we leave for our children? let it be a positive one. A legacy of strength, peace, compassion and love, a legacy of lessons of how not to do some things so that they learn how not to do something and change it so that the lineage grows in wisdom. A legacy of joy and opportunity and not to be held back by the prejudices and opinions of others.

Show them love. How blessed we are to have been given this gift and how proud I am of my beautiful girl. Forever grateful

Be the one to share the light 💡

Even in the darkest of times, love still spreads quietly from one heart to another.

A small kindness, a gentle word, a smile, a moment of understanding … these things move silently through the world, touching lives in ways we may never fully know.

Love and light are contagious in the most beautiful way. And every one of us has the power to pass them on.

In these heavy, turbulent times be the light and love this world so sorely needs.

Blessings,

Thought for Sunday: Spring showed itself again this week with a beautiful day yesterday, the loch was like glass when I woke, covered in a layer of mist, the chill still lingering but so clear.

I spent this week emerging from winter. Starting with a lovely evening in the pub on Thursday, with good friends, totally unexpected, a last minute decision. Yesterday it continued, shifting winter stuck energy that had been sitting on me like a heavy cloak, first with an amazing Qi Gong master workshop, then in the afternoon , sharing positive energy with neighbours and good friends cheering on a triumphant and brilliant Scotland rugby team to victory . It was good to be back - laughter, conversation and shared delight filled the day.

Today I get to spend time with two special friends that I’ve known for 41 years. Giving energy to sharing conversations and a good Sunday lunch.

This week also brought news of a new life to special connections, my heart was full as it brought up memories of another very special friend no longer here but showing me that life goes on and hope is always here.

My point, winter had begun to weigh on me and not necessarily the season, my positive outlook had been challenged and I was stuck looking at negatives.

Don’t let yourself be cloaked by the dark in the world, let the light in, find your lighthouse and let its light be a beacon of strength and guidance. You may find that the lighthouse is you, your inner light wanting to come out and shine again. Or someone else or something else gives you a nudge and shows you what you need to see.

Wishing you a day of shedding off the dark, the winter and let in the light, and then let your own light shine brightly. Don’t let anyone or anything dim your light. Joy is the goal. Delight in the little things and you’ll realise that they were always what was important.

To all women, you may not feel strong but trust you are …..🌻

Here’s to all the strong women out there
Who stand up for themselves and face the world with a heart of soldier.
Here’s to all the passionate women out there
Who won’t let the world stop them from achieving their dreams and doing the things they love.
Here’s to all the independent women out there
Who have been there for themselves and show that they can.
Here’s to all the unbreakable women out there!
Who have been knocked down for countless times but they find a way to rise and stand up again.
Here’s to all the women in this world
You are beautiful, you are worthy, and no one has the power to dim your light.

Happy International Women’s Day

Welcome Friday - make another persons day today ! 🌻

Welcome Thursday - a beautiful reminder from Brene Brown this morning 🌻 inspired by earthmonk.

''I think midlife is when the universe gently places her hands upon your shoulders, pulls you close, and whispers in your ear:

I’m not screwing around. It’s time. All of this pretending and performing – these coping mechanisms that you’ve developed to protect yourself from feeling inadequate and getting hurt – has to go.

Your armor is preventing you from growing into your gifts. I understand that you needed these protections when you were small. I understand that you believed your armor could help you secure all of the things you needed to feel worthy of love and belonging, but you’re still searching and you’re more lost than ever.

Time is growing short. There are unexplored adventures ahead of you. You can’t live the rest of your life worried about what other people think. You were born worthy of love and belonging. Courage and daring are coursing through you. You were made to live and love with your whole heart. It’s time to show up and be seen.''

Time to shine, use today to beam and share your light with the world
