Spinning whilst telling stories has been happening for millennia. Each word, nestled in the spun fibre, worn on the body, after, like an amulet.
It was so lovely to welcome the 80+ people that joined us to welcome the Spring with stories and harp music.
We know that song, story & craft have the power to awaken ancient memory, and be a balm for our human challenges.

We hold still. We hold hopes. We hold our pain and the world’s pain. We hold each other. We hold up our values and hold down our tasks. We hold on, and this might be the single most defining feature of human life. We hold on.

She was indeed!
I didn’t take a photo of the full moon for social media. I watched it instead, fully.
Beautiful, Sandra!
This is so beautiful and tender ❤️
A written down story is akin to a photograph. It is one moment in that story’s lifetime, in the way that a photo is one moment in the person’s life. It is not the whole life. Stories belong on lips, told from hearts. Writing them down has preserved many of them, telling them makes them come alive.
Heron flies silent

The child-like wonder that snow brings out. There is such beauty in this world.
