On a day like this…
It’s hard to know what to write on a day like this when the news is full of shocking edicts and social media aflame with righteous anger and revolt. The threat to the precarious balance of global diplomacy is increasing day by day, with populist movements running roughshod over common sense and basic human decency. It is heartbreaking. It is infuriating. And it must be resisted. But what does that look like? For you? For me? For us? As a woman from a small city in a small country, it’s hard to feel like anything I can do can really make a difference. I feel my efforts being swallowed up…

Creating a home for creativity…
My mum shared with me her ribbon box the other day there. The most beautiful and unusual collection of ribbons that I’ve ever seen each housed in its own little compartment, liberated from the drawer that had been their home.

I was circling this specifically from the place of tending to our sense of wellbeing and to our creative practice.

Remembering play…
A short post today, as it’s the end of a busy day where we visited the beautiful city of Bordeaux. Such a luscious day full of yummy treats. But a highlight was our visit to the Lego shop…. Much joy, much laughter, much fun. A really good reminder to never stop playing. Makes me think of that great quote by Picasso – ‘Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.’ I think part of “remaining an artist” might be remembering to play and have fun – just for the sheer joy of it.
