Oh, thank you. Thank you, even just in writing, this is healing.

I am pretty broken up right now, and this was truly balm.

I envy you that wonderful little house and your wonderful Nemeton.

I realized later, that house isn't really "little"!! So GOOD ON YA!!!

I'd be happy with half a garage that was all mine, LOL.

Thanks for the good words and good vibes. xo xo

Thank you for reading, Isaac! I'm sitting here writing and looking outside - it's a blizzard!. I can't even see across to the Nature Preserve. It's just another kind of beauty. A white one. Have a beautiful day!

Barbara, as soon as I read your title I knew which song you were referring to as we sang the “Lord” version in church when I was a teenager. I’d say this “Earth” version suits me much better these days also. I hope your water under the snow moment wasn’t accompanied by any injuries. Thank you for sharing the snapshot and video of your beautiful sanctuary.

Ah! I knew someone would recognize it, Heather! I almost poked my eye out on a tree branch as I lunged for the tree while watching water swirling up above the snow and around my boots. But I didn't poke it out and the water only went up to the top of my boots. Lesson learned - stick to the path when there's snow on the ground! Thanks for reading! xo

Hi Amy! Thank you for reading, sweetie! I'm sitting here watching a blizzard outside. It's so beautiful (because I don't have to drive in it!) Much love to you. Barbara xoxo

I’m with you on driving in the snow 😆. I honestly expected a lot more snow here in Michigan but it’s been surprising mild 😊

You're in MI? Where? I think we had this conversation but I forgot. I grew up in Detroit, you know! OMG, I must have 12" on my picnic table already and it's still snowing hard! I'm gonna strap on my snowshoes and go for a walk in the woods! xo

Thank you, J.R. for always having such kind words for me. I want everyone to know that kind of peace in Nature if only for a few moments now and then. xo
