Turn to Nature

A quote I found,

Some people don't understand the importance

of solitude. I don't always want to be stimulated. 

I don't always want noise, in fact, when I find 

my alone time, that's when I find myself. Alone time

helps me put myself first.  It's helps me reset life. 

 Allow for the space to be and let grace lead. 

Yesterday I headed outside early, cooler morning them most after the walk in the neighborhood with Gracie. Annoyance had entered and every word from a loved one was triggering. Outside I went and hung with nature tending the year.  When I weed it's my place to allow the space I need to sort thoughts, annoyance and triggers out. While I was outside I witnessed the female humming bird coming to the feeder and the humming bird hawk moth.  Had to look that one up, different color then the Hummingbird moth.  There bodies are like little lobster shapes with wings and along circle shape proboscis.  it had come two times and I didn't have my camera on the phone handy...left it in the house not wanting to be connected when I'm working in the yard.  

So many messages these day come in and I contemplate them and seek deeper in them as my time allows. The slowing down has come of summer and using listening as beauty tool that it is. 

I know I shared in my newsletter about the cancelling of classes.  For so long I've been juggling many streams of income and there is a lull now... All the preparing for classes, packing things up, preparing lesson plans etc.  I'm not doing and it's odd...but I'm trying my hardest not to stir things up because my natures is to be in motion and busy...the fun chaos....or I'll die like a shark if I'm not moving thought pattern.  Summer is a time to look at this patterns in ourselves.  

I know I can cause some craziness all by myself...done that in the past but trying to be wiser and allow. 

 Letting things unfold and be revealed.  Sitting in uncertainty of what art business is happening next...be the driving force, always keeping it out there...This time I'm not doubting, well at first I was but that's old stuff now it's time to switch it up for myself and see it differently.  

Ideas and inspiration as right at myside and I'm allowing that too.... 

I'm going to contemplate this for awhile and see.  Sit with it they say...
