you cannot know how this singling out for gratitude, energy, would pierce my heart.
perfect for all gratitude advent calendars...

Beautiful photos of snow and the joy of play in it. It makes me feel light just seeing it! Davinci's Virgin is so beautiful and even she looks filled with a mystical energy. I love this post!

I have difficulty recognizing the landscape around me, I'm lying low so that I can absorb some of the new terrain. I am still quite dizzy, it's going to take some time... Much of what I wrote about here in this space would involve a brief glimpse of 'my love' and our life together. I had thought of closing 'Finding my Bliss', for a pivotal part of everything this blog has stood for seemed on the surface of things to be missing! But as the days have come and gone I am beginning to look at things in a different light and although I am grieving for my love I find I am l feeling his prese
