Dearest friends, i am sitting by the light of the computer screen. the room dark, the sky dark but my heart so full of light and i inhale and exhale in one single breath.
I have been away, family trials, fears and helplessness now those things are passing and i start to point my toes, open my hands and slowly stretch my limbs again. Tonight was magical, the hill slowed me down just enough, taking me on a waltz through beautiful fog and rain as horses galloped through the fields and deer grazed. I walked to the horses and stayed for a long while even rested my face on splash and asked " do you remember me old pal" through this thicker skin, wrinkled face and grey hair but somehow he showed me who i used to be so i lingered there….
I have always known a baby, child would bring me so much joy and all the love i had that was often misplaced would find a home in this small being what i did not realized how much my love grows for her each day even when i think it would be impossible to love more than this , she is my everything and there is something so amazing about her beyond just what a mother feels- she is the sun, the sea and the air.
I am preparing to travel again foreign lands like Istanbul and home away from home France and working on filming workshops and lands beyond my imagination. It goes to fast, torn between want to be still on the Hill with my little girl and wanting to create- i believe one day soon both these things will collide and it too will be magical.
i took this photograph long time ago when i lived in Providence, my bedroom in the city, morning light filtered through ferns, oxalis and a window shade…… the tittle "my heart wanders"
oh and this song took me places….

it is so good to hear your voice again; it warms my heart because 'the hill' needs you as well as the rest of us...
It is ever so lovely to have you "back"...to read your words, to hear your heart beating, to feel the muse pulling at you and to know that life with all its beauty is filling you every day. The photo is wonderful.. and has a language to speaks to me. Thanks for being here today

Nadia... safe travels wish I was able to catch up with you on your ventures over to Europe but alas at sea somewhere in the blue pond we call the Mediterranean! Keep in touch and wonderful to see your words back again xx

Stopping by for some soul food, and found it, as always...

Ever so lovely, my friend, your words waltz me through mist and fields, allowing me to slow down. xo
I also believe that there will be a time when caring for your little one and making art will collide beautifully. Thank you for sharing this hope! As an artist mommy I think of this often as well.
your words are beautiful
