Embrace Who You Are

Hello again
It's been a while since I've been blogging but time to get back to it.

I have this very dear friend Lynne who is so inspirational for me and I have learned some of her knowledge of the Aboriginal culture  which really intrigues me .
I was very fortunate to spend a day in her little shop in East Coulee during the spring festival out there.
The name of her little shop is called Buffalo Spirit Trading...A treasure trove of spirituality..She also has the most beautiful gardens..I find so much serenity there...

I was able to talk with visitors and sell some of her beautiful gifts and jewellery and had forgotten what it's like to work with people . I miss that part of my life....I've been quite isolated lately with my health issues and other commitments...

I learned that I am of the turtle clan , so appropriate as I feel that I am quite often laying on my back , fluttering around and not knowing how to upright myself...Thankfully I have this wonderful counsellor Cora and she helps me to see that like the turtle, slow and steady I'm able to get back on my feet again...

I'm reading Brene Brown's book called The Gifts Of Imperfection, Let Go Of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are...Your Guide To A Wholehearted Life.. as I have tried all my life to be the perfect wife, mother, employee, you name it....It's pretty draining trying to be all these things and do them perfectly..

I want to do some writing but where to start ?

Carol Is Back....Better Late Than Never...

I can't believe that my blog is still here and I've been away from it for so long but it has been quite a journey...This is a new beginning for me...

A lot has happened in my life since my last posts...

 I don't know where to begin so I guess I'll start from today and go back to some of the places I've been...It surprises even me...Some of it is even hard for me to fathom...

My hair is no longer red, it's now silver...but I've earned every gray hair on my head...I've come through a storm that no one can imagine...
