I wrote this because this morning I saw a starling and thought how beautiful it looked. When I was a child, we used to see them all the time - and my mum really did say that - but now I don’t see as many.
Made me also consider how scarcity relates to beauty. How when something is abundant, we don’t see its beauty in the same way but suddenly when it’s rare, it’s treasured.
I love this! We attract what we focus on - if we focus on those ‘just a’ things the world, and our lives, miss out on the lustre that is there for us to see. Thank you for the reminder xx

No longer shall I reduce the ‘worth’ of anything with ‘just’ ‘only’ etc
From now on when asked about anything, especially by my grandchildren, I will tell them everything wondrous about that thing!
Great words again Julie ❤️

As always it’s a letter to myself as much as anyone else….xx
Really life enhancing. Your words certainly do sparkle. (Gorgeous picture, too).
Thank you :)

I own my own house (well, will when I’m 56) but I’m a selfish bastard and will be selling it, and blowing it all travelling round the world.
I’d hate to end up in a care home and see my house sold to line the pockets of greedy bastard care home owners which i know happens to many.
I have a plan once my son is grown to go house sitting all over the world so that way I’ve no overheads and it’s fun all the way.🔥
Assuming we’re not all chained in our 15 minute cities or whatever by then that is😂😂
Thanks. I think it’s important not to crush wonder, and it shines so naturally in children.
