I missed the Autumn Equinox. Which is telling.
It happened, but I missed it, in a day of running around, trying to get the grocery shop done, trying to convince partner that his 'quit' regime was working, trying to meet up with Best Friend who just got back from Canada this weekend... too much running, not enough balance.
In and amongst the manic day, there were moments of sheer bliss - chatting and catching up with Best Friend, baby laughing and clapping all day, lovely sunset over the bay, watching clams on the beach. So it wasn't all manic.
The above photo is from a collection by a local artist, but it's all about finding that stillness right now, which is my goal of the week. Only saying yes to that which heals and moves at the right pace. So right now? Yes to seed bagels with cream cheese, peach yoghurt for baby and some nice slow crafting in the morning. Yes yes yes.
