Yesterday late evening, as the sun was going down, this
shard of light appeared on my bedroom wall.
One of life’s random remarks. A word from the Mystery, saying nothing the
human intellect might categorise or understand, but eminently comprehensible to
the soul.
So beautiful.

A large, warm, fluffy scarf made in some kind of synthetic
fabric from a hippy website. Kind if
usefulish but not very.
Trousers. I have this
ongoing unrealistic hopefulness about trousers.
It all goes well until I get into some place with a 360o
mirror and am treated top the rear view.
You see, I have short sturdy legs and ample child-bearing hips.
Interesting book about the concept of wabi-sabi, but I think
Leonard Koren’s Wabi-Sabi for Artists,
Designers, Poets and Philosophers has the edge on it, so I kept that
instead. I also think non-Japanese wabi-sabi
enthusiasts tend to overlook the distinction between wabi-sabi and shibui; and
in reality shibui is what most of us want, rather than the rotting hovel, semi-bald
brush and bucket with holes you might get lumbered with in pursuit of
wabi-sabi.
Jeggings.
Ahahaha. I lost some weight last
year and got a bit over-ambitious. Oh
dear.
I thought I would like this but it turned out to be thin and
clingy. Er . . . no thanks.
More spare glasses from the days when I used to panic about
that.

Beautiful shard of light vs. jeggings....hmmm, I can't quite figure out which one I should focus on. :)
The curtains by the beautiful shard of light are lovely too.

Love this! LOL.

"Kindred". That word in your blog title speaks volumes to me. I was searching for another blog (I'd forgotten the exact title) when I found ...the Quiet Way. I think I'll just park here a bit. I sense a kindred spirit.....

Hi Rebecca. Good to meet you.

Isn't it wonderful to simply enjoy the gift of a shaft of sunlight! May we all have time in our day to experience the wonder of our world.
Blessings,
