inspiration

How are your wishes going?

How are your projects unfolding? Needing some tweaking? Refining? Defining?

Any time is a good time to check in with your settings where is your ‘you-are-here’ spot and not only where is the X marking, but how do you want to arrive? 

You can celebrate any time 

your right now and all that got you here

then make a wish for your next moment

like my old fave Guru Adrian used to say ‘Celebrate Your Birthday Everyday',
Every breath of inspiration is a chance to express the whole of you.

Here’s to living life with courage, learning with joy and leaving a trail of love!

cheers!

Grazie

Grazie

for real tools

the unique

the barn

the view

Thanks for a wonderful week. Zermatt - behind the watches and chocolate and swinging snow scene - respect for a people who built houses way up here in the 1600s?! Who farmed. Who climbed the Matterhorn in 1865 with hobnailed boots. And not all the wealthy Englishmen who came, but the guides - like sherpas who knew the mountain. The one who climbed it 370 times the last time at 90, who never had a phone, but who could always be reached around sunset taking his afternoon cafe. Bold beings living life their way loving this land. This town has had no cars since 1947! - only way to arrive is by train and only vehicles electric taxi or bus or sled or horse and carriage - 

clear, clean, quiet - alive :)

suspense . . .

He loved the tingling

it stated in his toes.

The numbers counted down

his skin came alive from inside

when he heard the words

coming ready or not . . .

It felt like that when he waited with the others

the candles were lit. . .

Surprise!

And this time . . .

behind the door 

he barely breathed

he had the ring

ready in his hand.

my first go at Illustration Fridays  . . . each Friday they post a new topic  - "It was designed to challenge participants creatively. We believe that every person has a little creative bone in their body. Illustration Friday just gives a no-pressure, fun excuse to use it." -  want to have a go?

a bit of Paris

looking from the centre out in all directions

a little bit of Paris

old friends making new memories

little bit of wisdom - ok maybe a Levis ad?

Avenue of love

you gotta start by loving you ;)

sailing on the seven seas

a perspective

a promise

a question - what's your dream?

follow it . . .

The kind of moments you get when you're closer to things

when you get an invitation

and when you say yes

But what to do in two short wintry days?

Be with friends

Be amazed - again

Be curious - look beyond or behind

Be open - to what you find

What a gift 

a time out of time 

a moment 

out of all my busy mine

to just be

and soak it up 

a little atmosphere 

a breath of different air 

refreshed revived

re-inspired

You can take those moments anywhere. What's that great quote about change? It's all about seeing with different eyes? When I lived in Bondi, when I lived in Byron, even when I lived in Bali when I got so tangled up in my same life repeating myself over and over . . . I'd just take a different way home, put on a different tune, put on a different kind of hat and open the way for something new . . . 

give yourself a surprise - a gift to you xx
