Now for this week’s recommendations…
What are you telling yourself?
Karen Davis’ post on Telling The Story is heartfelt and moving.
This resonated with me about the stories we tell ourselves and how if we find they are no longer serving us, we can let them go. As she says:
“How are your stories? What stories need revision, to move forward, to bring joy into your life? What stories will enable you to fly free?”
This is how you age.
In this article, Maria Popova shares a passage from musician Nick Cave’s book Faith, Hope and Carnage, about the art of getting older.
This resonated with me:
“You somehow grow into the fullness of your humanity, form your own character, become a proper person…”
The little-known magic of the breaking dawn.
Sarah C Swett celebrates the magical time of just before dawn. Her newsletter entries are thoughtful and a joy to read.
This is what happens if you can’t see things in your head.
Have you heard of this? Some people can’t imagine things visually.
What does ‘home’ mean to you?
Sabrina from Kenshō studio shares all the word home can mean. As my family have been traveling over these last years, ‘home’ is a shifting sense of place.
