About Me

My photo
here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Maws

my friend Maureen died last night. I am sad & lost. Have known her for over 20 years. I just don't deal with loss very well at all.. but I guess that is quite normal.

I'm so sorry, dear friend. I don't handle loss very well either. They say that death is only hard for the one's left behind, and that is so true. Please know that you are in my thoughts.

Robyn, I'm so very sorry. I don't deal with loss very well either and I'm not good with words. Just know that I'm thinking of you and keeping you in my thoughts as you go through this difficult time. Hugs to you.

I'm so sorry Robyn. I know it hurts to lose someone who has been part of your life for so long. Perhaps you could take comfort in knowing that SHE knew you were her friend and she appreciated that. Of course these are just words. The real deal is the hurt in the heart. xoxo

dear one,

thinking of you so much and now learning of your loss. i am sending comfort and love to wrap close around your grieving heart.
dear maureen may your passing be a flight of peace, a return to divine wholeness.
may those you leave behind be awakened gently to the fragility of life and live it boldly by your reminder.
may we all move through the currents of life with compassion for all knowing everyone is united by birth and death...it is up to each of us to fill the center of those bookends with the most profound love we have to offer.

loving you always,
rebecca
