This was beautiful Lauren. Thank you for the reminder that being under the blanket of a grey winter's day is enough, and more. I love how you opened yourself up to the trees and received their wisdom. They always seem to know the answers. Thank you also for the reflection on the void/in-between, it is so easy to feel restless in that space and I am grateful for the prompt about what we know to be true. I have also just ordered cacao on your recommendation, your slow mornings with cacao sound magical, I hope to emulate soon! xx
Ooooh I hope that we can simultaneously be sipping Cacao together during our mornings. One day in person too!! Thank you for reading and receiving these words, they felt very apt for a grey January day and I am forever grateful for the grounding and wise presence of the trees. xxx
Beautiful words and photos Lauren. I love that quote - I wish I could feel more OK with uncertainty. I am so aware of my desire for control and certainty and how hard to work to create that (false) sense that I have both... A big part of my journey, I think, to feeling more safe with uncertainty and knowing that I'm not in control...
Oh I feel it in both ways… it gives me hope I think and is a reminder that I can’t control it all. But it is still a lesson I have to learn in certain areas of my life for sure! I can be so comfortable with uncertainty in some areas and then totally floored by it in others. I guess this is a message in itself. Thank you for reading lovely. xxx
Oh wow, that’s amazing that you know the lake, it is so magical and I am so grateful I get to walk it almost daily. So lovely to connect, I look forward to more. xxx
In the past, morning was the time to get ready for the rest of the day. Nowadays, a morning well spent counts already as a beautiful day no matter what follows.
Yes this is so so true and such a wonderful way to look at it. I am really trying to bring a sense of that to our school day mornings but it’s a challenge! X
✨✨💙 beautiful reflections
Thank you xxx

Enjoyed this! Have just found your work, look forward to exploring more..
I know that lake well, somewhere I spent a lot of time many years ago! Was surprised to see it, brought back memories..
