treasure

We had a brief respite from the rain.

I have never seen light like this.

It pours out of the sky ....

...illuminating otherwise ordinary objects.

It makes you feel like an alchemist...

..turning everything into golden treasure.

  1. this post is exquisite.
    thank you for believing in magic.
    not the magic of spells & potions but the magic of the everyday, the magic of light & being & breath.
    your son must be extraordinary. what a legacy you are building for him.

  2. Natasha Thank you for stopping by, it means so much.

    Elisabeth, thank you for this comment. You have no idea how it affected me just now! Really. Thank you for recognizing my efforts at finding magic in our everyday light and being and breath...This to me is when this blogging thing is at it's most profound, when you can connect with a stranger who gets what you are trying to put out into the world and you feel seen and known. I wish you a magical week ahead.
