Good question!

Shared ground here: I remarked before, you take a canny picture - that is Castlerigg? That is an important place with a number of symmetries.

Read on folks ...

Thanks Phillip! Yes Castlergg. I was there in 2011 and took the picture. And incredible place and energy. We the place to ourself and she sang to me. Thank you so much for reading and reaching out. Happy book day. I’m part way in on Rozak and Where the Wasteland Ends. Thank you so much for recommending! Stay well, and I look forward to talking New Brunswick stories live soon!

Jamie, this is fantastic and so inspiring! Writing came a little later for me too—I was an artist in painting and drawing, but always felt like I couldn’t say what I wanted to—something was missing. One day a friend said “why don’t you write?” That is what I did! Your poetry is like food for the soul, thank you for sharing it!❤️

Beautiful Jamie!" Poetry had arrived to find me looking towards the second half of life. Like a strong gale she knocked me over, grabbed a hold of me and pulled me upwards."

Congrats on the book. What a fantastic idea. An interactive poetry book.

Congratulations on the relaunch. I like the question "How will you tell your story? there are so many ways and maybe we need all of them; grasping for one definitive 'story' is like trying to nail jello to the wall. Our many stories are like a picture that can be viewed from many angles, or a piece of music that can be listened to in many moods. I look forward to reading more. All the best, Josh.

Thanks Josh! Are we telling our story or is it telling us? Is there a difference? Sometimes I can’t tell. Bless you! I can imagine that garden is a big part of it. Thanks for your support! 🙏❤️

Many congratulations❣️❣️ What a wonderful way to celebrate World Book Day.

These are powerful questions. I just have to repeat them here for myself:

Have you been to yourself in all of this noise?

Are you living your dreams?

Does your soul have a voice?

When you close your eyes what do you see?

Where your heart meets your soul, who must you be?

Will your why be your way?

How will you tell your story?

Living Questions indeed. Thank you so much for sharing your writing journey 💖🙏
