I really am home. I sat under the old apple tree, feet bare upon the ground, eyes closed, breathing the essence of my new home town - Katoomba, into each and every cell of my being. it felt right. it felt comfortable, like an old cardigan wrapping around me, full of memories deep within. nurturing and acceptance. a gentle, calm energy. I knew at that moment that this is where I will begin the next part of my journey - the journey of coming to know who I really am. what can I say? except that I am blessed. I am grateful. I am home.
My very own Avalon, where there are not one but two old apple tree. two lilacs and room for my chooks. a space where I can sit, ponder and search. where I can lay upon Mother Earth and not fear spiders and snakes. a place where sometimes winds will howl incessantly, where it may snow in winter. a place where the mists of the ancestors roll in.
[we move into Avalon next week]

New beginnings . . . new peace . . . new blessings. Welcome home!
Robyn,
A new home with such a magical name, Pixies too. Yes I can see him even without you pointing him out. Just a few more sleeps. How wonderful.

You're going to love it. I even like the sound of the town - Katoomba - it sounds tribal and down-to-earth.
To have lilac and apple trees and a pixie what more could anyone want for!
Love from this pix!
Say not, I have found the truth, but rather, I have found a truth. Say not, I have found the path of the soul, Say rather, I have met the soul walking upon my path. For the soul walks upon all paths. The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed. The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.

You are so right Robyn. This will give you a reassuring secure base for the next part of your life's journey. I think there is a certain amount of grieving in the letting go of the old one. I think you really have found your home now and yourself.Such a lovely time of year to get aquainted with Avalon and make it your own haven. Much love to you and Joe, and all the best for the move.xxxxx
