celebrating autumn. my first pumpkin pie and chai this season. it’s a glorious saturday afternoon, here, in my part of the world: blue skies, yellow leaves, and crisp air.
have a great weekend my friends!

each single petal
a luscious softness and dream
waiting for the night
“There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time.”
notebook, pen, magazines clips, glue… doing what i want and i need to keep my mind busy. grateful to be able to play with this stuff without hurry, just enjoying and letting go.
have a lovely day and don’t forget to make time for yourself!

quiet in my life :: yoga, meditation, and journaling early in the morning. this is my ‘me time’. love to wake up early and to know that for an hour or so i’ll not be disturbed. some days i get lazy and stay in the bed but most of the time i get up and start my day being positive.
my friend Delicia is creating personal meditations, you can check out here. she has lovely meditations in there and i asked her to create a personal meditation for me. she knows me well and i trusted that she’d pinpoint all my needs in the meditation.
i received my meditation last week, love it! the meditation is grounding, but at the same time makes me feel light and free. i’m practicing it every day since them and i feel that unpleasant thoughts are getting weaker and i’ve more room for creativity in my mind. isn’t it great!
my ‘me time’ makes me a better person to others, but the most important makes me a better person to myself.
hugs,

my journaling time is a kind of ritual. it’s the time i connect with my inner-self. i listen to a deeper voice, my soul’s voice, so i need solitude and silent. a candle and earth elements close by. sometimes i draw a card, to use it as a prompt. coffee or tea is a must. my favorite tools are a plain Moleskine notebook and a Micron pen. this week i’m joining a writing challenge on IG, #quietwriting, i like the prompts and i’m joining it because it is a short challenge, only 7 days. yesterday’s prompt was ‘creative space’ and i shared this photo showing my journaling time.
And you? where/how do you like to write?
“this particular boy looked impossibly young and fine-boned beneath the bill of his cap, his eyelids burned by the weight of a thousand silky black lashes.”
this morning i’m noticing the details of a story. i’m impressed by the writing of Ann Patchett, how she describes the characters of her story. feels like they are close by and we can touch them. her books are great! i wanted to read this one for a long time, i’m reading it slowly, few pages each morning, savoring each line.
Have a great week my friends!
welcome autumn!

autumn equinox
12 hours of light, 12 hours of darkness
as the sun crosses the equator
today
bring your focus and your energy
inward
as the outside world changes
set an intention for the months ahead
happy equinox!

farewell to the summer
yes, you were a hot and humid one
somedays i got upset with you
but others i just loved that you were here
i’ll remember you as mornings and evenings
in my garden
vegetables and flowers
smiling at me
and the sun bathing my golden skin
