After my little breakdown earlier this week, I'm now spending some time focusing on the little things in life. As a couple of wise and wonderful blogging friends (thanks Ruth and Suz) put it: going gently. I'm taking it quietly and doing the things that make me feel good. Like...
Listening to music, dancing around the house and singing. Loudly.
Right now it's Jack Johnson's beautiful lyrics capturing me.
We got everything we need right here
And everything we need is enough
It's just so easy
When the whole world fits inside of your arms
Cooking (and eating). Taking the time to make lovely food is what I call my indulgence - it makes me feel good.
Walking. We're often spotted wandering our local streets - it's our time together to chat, to escape, to just be together.
Shopping. Today I spent a couple of hours browsing the shops - just me and a little portion of the money I've been working so hard for lately. Just because.
Friends and family. Laughter, surrounding myself with wonderful people.
Those images sum up a lot of peace and gentleness, and our hills weather is helping at the moment isn't it. Sunshine and a little warmth are so welcome.

Love the Jack Johnson quote, where the world fits in your arms. Take care of yourself, and squeeze your little world tight. That's all that matters. x

I'm so glad you've had a week like this Megan. It sounds like the perfect tonic. xx
I'm so pleased to hear you're taking it gently and soothing yourself in the best possible way sweet.
I think I could die from the cuteness of those pigtails by the way!
And on another note - this song is on SUPER high rotation 'round here - Sebastian LOVES it.
Big hugs sweet.
