This tightly wound tea, when given the right conditions, unfurls. It stretches and dances. It becomes its best. Its essence is extraordinary.
That's how I want to be during my sabbatical.
I have many fun things planned for the next 10 weeks, including: family visit, bike camping with the DH, and a tea tour to Asia. Plus plenty of time for me to sip, savor, stretch and dance, and contemplate how I can tend to my own essence.
Steph, you are a good writer. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely post and photo, Steph. Enjoy your time!
