the sensuality of living #1

Inspired by Tracy at Sutterbean and her My Everyday Life series, I am starting a series of my own I am calling The Sensuality of Living. It’s a peek into my everyday life, my courting of beauty with the messiness of living, odd moments of noticing… general bits and pieces of being in the swirl of being and becoming. I do hope you enjoy!

This close up of a dieffenbachia leaf in black and white looks like a Rorschach Test.
What do you see?

I started quilting again after many years. There are so many tiny pieces!

I did a reading for myself.
Follow the path of what you love, but don’t get sidetracked by shiny distractions disguised as true desire.

I love the texture of seed stitch.

I am much more entertained by looking at my messes through filters rather than cleaning them up. I hope this isn’t a metaphor for my life. The coach in me is now very curious!

How are things in your world?
