The long slow yawn
…Just looking at the everyday evidence, quite apart from all the enhancement in life’s minutest details, all the beauty noticed and so much clarity, its as though time has speeded up to a whole other pace compared to those earlier times of sludge. It moves along quite differently to those years when life was lived like a goldfish; neither bored nor surprised at seeing the same old fishtank sides and certainly never questioning why they were there. But then we are into the ninth wave now and everything is happening soooo much more quickly again, the evolutions coming thick and fast (oh, about every 36 days…) appearing as upgrades that make me feel like 6 months was another lifetime ago, so much does everything reinvent, again and again and again. Is this a trick; are we just designed to always think we see more, feel more, know more today than we did yesterday? Can I really tell all these changes happened, do trees really look any different to my eyes (perhaps it took the slow steady growth of the tree that hasn’t changed so very much…only my perception of it…to show this) and are my evolutionary spurts so much more than a “nice” academic theory? In my life, oh yes, yes they are but yesterday seemed to want to show me some particular things, just to make sure I grasped the leap that has been made; seeing even what those earlier contrasts were here to show me in their own perfect way. In short, I was given another opportunity to appraise just how beautfully designed my whole life has been and how much I have woken up, already. Though the two decades this transition has taken could feel like a very long, slow yawn, the most recent months have been like the part when you vigorously rub the sleep out of your eyes, your head clears and the room seems suddenly a-dazzle with colour and interest; and all the promise of a brand new day.

Navigating that darkest before the dawn feeling
A friend whose words I treasure shared this morning “There is nearly always a dip, a feeling that all is lost before the revelation of a mystery…” It struck me that this is the very same as the feeling as … Continue reading →
I just don’t know
Its the ability to hold a space for “other”, to change your mind or your direction, to learn something new, to be shown you were mistaken, to be surprised and to experience the thrill of mystery (and allow it to remain thus…) that makes life what it is; a vast unending sea of potential out of which all evolution arises.

Spinning light
Many of us are natural-born spinners and don’t even know it; we spin stories around the fireside of our blogs or when we meet people who seem ready to listen and, of course, there is already so much “spin” in the world but then why should the big-manipulators, the game-players, have all the use of that skill set out there in the world? There is another “story” to be told about what is currently happening in this world and I know I am here to tell it; me as only one voice amongst so many others forming a chorus and so many of them the women who are finding their voices after eons of needing to be seen and not heard. Women have often spun together in groups and spinning our version of truth to each other and to our organically grown audience is a way that we get to revive that activity in a way that truly makes a difference because, together, we are spinning a brand new reality. Inspired by this and many others outlined in this post, I have decided to change the name of my blogging and social media “brand” from Scattering the Light to Spinning the Light (read on…) Continue reading →

Choosing a trajectory
Does a butterfly, on the brink of that first flight, with nothing but an instinct as her guide to something she has never done before, suddenly decide not to jump? Could anything persuade her that there was no point to it, that she might as well curl up and pretend to still be a caterpillar down there on the ground? Launching ourselves at that “future” version of ourselves (rather than harping upon the experiences and limitations of the past…as we have learned to do so very well) is exactly like being a butterfly that must first try out those newly unfolded wings without having a clue what they were intended for and yet we are at that point as soon as we say we are ready for it. My writing and painting is all about encouraging that next forward-leap and tuning into what is truly possible around the edges of what “seems” to be our world (click on the link to read so much more…)
This is a milestone post exploring the WHOLE journey I have been on and what motivates me as an artist and writer. Continue reading →

Change that comes in waves
How fascinating are these times. You may turn around on your heel in a room and sense that everything has changed in that split moment; may set up something you really thought you wanted to do then suddenly realise that you really don’t…anymore. Your moods … Continue reading →
In search of waterfalls
Something called me back to the Brecon Beacons and Wye Valley this year and I responded to it like a knee-jerk impulse (since we hardly needed yet another trip this busy year…), booking it almost before I had time to … Continue reading →
