Putting it out there.

-

Normally I don't have too much problem with coming up with blog content. Occasionally I miss a day if I'm not feeling inspired or I'm in a quiet spell like now. However, I didn't want to be defeated by this yesterday so a new positive approach was called for. Being a bit of an old hippy at heart I decided to put in a request for something suitable with the universe and then step back and let the magic happen. Within a matter of minutes this unusual piece of artwork jumped out at me..... a depiction of trees on pieces of wood forming a tree. As it was outside somebody's house I needed to be quick snapping a photo without looking shifty! 


So there we are with many thanks to the unseen powers that be I got given what I asked for. Perhaps I should try this approach more often!

    I often 'put it out to the universe' and step back, and I am rarely disappointed.
    That 'tree' is the perfect 'response'😁

      I just "knew" that it was what I was waiting for. Arilx

    Once upon a time...a tornado carried off the door to a friend's shed. She pulled a set of kitchen chairs from the shed and placed them on the street, marked "Free to the Flow". We went shopping and when we returned -- the chairs were gone and the door lay in its place. Gotta go with the flow more often!

      Yes I completely agree. My problem is remembering most of the time. Arilx

    Good plan - it's hard remembering to ask. Lovely piece of artwork

      I'm always so busy being organised that I forget most of the time. Arilx

    That's amazing!

    To quote sages: You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometime, you might just find you get what you need.

      I have also learnt that things arrive in their own timescale, not mine! Arilx

    That's something my meditation mentor used to call 'support of nature'. Very cool tree by the way.

    Support of nature sounds like a very apt description. Arilx

A Table for the Nation

Phew I've just spent an amazing Morris weekend watching two local sides dancing [as part of the May day celebrations Broadwood Morris dance in a local church!] and performing with Mythago as part of the Sweeps Festival in Rochester. Over lunchtime I popped into the cathedral and found this huge 13m oak table on display in the nave. Aside from its size the most surprising thing is it has been made from a piece of 5000 year old black bog oak which was discovered purely by chance preserved in the peat of Wissington Fens in 2012. Due to its year of discovery coinciding with the Diamond Jubilee it was named the Jubilee Oak. If this was only a section heaven only knows how big the original tree must have been. This type of oak is the densest native hardwood and the only naturally black one. I was interested to learn that it also gives a unique sound when made into musical instruments and is much sought after for that reason. Maybe not surprisingly it took nine months to dry the wood out

A moving tale

"Why?" you might well be asking yourself is she showing us a picture of a microwave with a pile of stuff. TYM is moving from his shared house into a furnished flat in another town next month [still renting] and due to the insurance on the property there are a few mobile items with plugs that you have to provide yourself. That in itself really isn't news. He has decided to buy himself a microwave, a toaster and a vacuum cleaner. Although his salary has increased with his recent promotion so have his necessary outgoings so he has to be mindful when spending. Only a couple of weeks ago I found out that there's a local house clearance company who are trying to improve the reputation of the business by not just throwing everything they can't sell into landfill. Instead they offer items within a specified area for free which you can ask for on their FB page. If they select you they then drop it off on your doorstep for free when they're working or travelling en rout
