Consistency

The end of August has come and brought a refreshing gust of inspiration and optimism I plan to ride until it fizzles into nothing.

The mornings have been crisp this past week, but the afternoons, bright & warm. Lovely.

I feel the importance of taking the time to appreciate the gifts and opportunities of August.

Through effort & consistency the veil of what once seemed a vast darkness, light has been revealed.

windows have been opened where doors were closed & once again hope prevails.

I am so grateful to have spent time with many artists and creative people this past month. It is my pleasure to be part of such a passionate & encouraging community.

August has brought forth a continuous amount of reading. I am hopeful that continues into the fall & winter. I've found it to be a wonderful way to natural calm the senses & also take the focus off of myself & what ever it is I am currently dealing with. Reading has reminded me time & time again, I am not alone in the things that I go through & this journey in life. I am comforted to find that I can learn & relate to the stories of others. I often feel I have more in common with others than I may have ever expected. July and August have reminded me of my love for social interaction and the ability to connect with others.

I've shared a few photos that I feel reflect a small portion of my August.

I wasn't sure how the beans would do considering this years prolonged winter. I have been amazed that they have grown wonderfully and tasted amazing.

Inside, the indoor plants continue to grow & thrive. I've posted just a few of my favorites;, diffienbachia & Fig tree.

Until September.,

Suzie
