lemons and herbs

Sometimes tiny connections with people boost my whole day.

Last week a lovely lady hand delivered me a little Welcome.To.The.Neighbourhood package. Filled with lemons and herbs from her garden.

Later that day My Littlest One and I walked to the park to see the ducks and we met a grandfather with his six month old grandson. This is Rex [he said proudly]. And then added: I have the incredible privilege to spend every Thursday morning with him [oh!]

And on the way home we met a lady taking photos of the landscape. She told me that she lectures on the ways our shifting engagement with our surroundings impacts our experience of self.

So many beautiful people. My heart so happy.
