I'm having one of those perplexing days myself. I started the morning with a walk in the woods... a few hours later can barely walk or talk. Just how it is.<br /><br />sending you love and courage to continue this journey one small gentle step at a time...always remembering to hug yourself when having a difficult day and there is no one else to put their arms around you. or a hand caressing your heart in small circles... I find that deeply comforting.<br /><br />xoxoLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15349928247626849914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684927768388749969.post-27154530166351899822013-03-27T12:14:30.218-04:002013-03-27T12:14:30.218-04:00Dear Nan, I miss your sharing and thank you so muc...Dear Nan, I miss your sharing and thank you so much for checking in with me :)One Woman's Journey - a journal being written from Woodhaven - her cottage in the woods.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12548226150115102345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684927768388749969.post-43220327947465031932013-03-27T10:41:34.150-04:002013-03-27T10:41:34.150-04:00Such beautiful writing.
