I'm sharing the seasonal treasures of Alaska's landscapes with you today... I feel so enthralled by Nature's wonders and beauty every single day. I just never imagined how it would captivate me this much, so far up north - Mother Earth never ceases to awe-maze me... I feel so blessed to have been able to witness and experience the glory of Alaska's wild landscapes in all their seasonal changes... a place I never planned to travel to in this life... and then Michael changed all that (so … [Read more...]
Support can show up in unexpected ways!…

We always have an infinite amount of support available to us as we journey through life on our unique paths. All we have to do is ask for it (for Spirit respects free will). Support can show up in countless forms, including an unexpected flow of resources, opportunities, connections, something we desired, synchronicities, information or gifts. However, some forms of support can also show up in ways we don't expect! They seem to turn our life upside down, to create disharmony or chaos, … [Read more...]

Unexpected delights of Nature... It always fills me with such great joy to have surprise encounters with wildlife in Nature and beyond... On yesterday's glorious Winter Solstice, after I drummed from my heart with so much love and appreciation to All, I went on a Nature hike and as I returned, I encountered these 2 beautiful woodpeckers that suddenly showed up!... The large one is a Pileated, and the small one is a Downy... I found it so significant that THESE are also drummers - … [Read more...]

Delightful surprises of Nature!... It's so easy to overlook things in our environment that we get used to seeing. We might see the same species of birds, mammals, trees or plants and not really notice them anymore, since they're no longer a novelty... I tend to do that in urban areas, but when I'm out in Nature, I always see things with wonder - as if seeing them for the first time. Even if I've seen Chickadees, Oak trees or Squirrels hundreds of times, I still delight in every one I … [Read more...]

Dead leaves that come alive... So many insects are perfect replicas of the environment they thrive in... leaves, twigs, bark mosses, lichen, flowers... It's always a delightful surprise to see what we think is vegetation, suddenly come alive! This beautiful moth looks just like bark and dried leaves - it blends in perfectly when it perches on a tree or on a surface with dead leaves. Our world abounds with beautifully interesting co-inhabitants!... ♥ With love and … [Read more...]

It's not a hummingbird... but just as endearing!... There's a wonderful family of moths known as hawk and sphinx moths that behave just like hummingbirds... The way they hover above flowers, fly up, down, backwards, forwards and feed with their long beak-like proboscis... Their wings beat so fast they're almost invisible... They're even the same size as hummingbirds. The one I captured at dusk this evening is known as a pink-spotted hawk moth. So beautiful! Nature is always full of … [Read more...]

Wildlife as gardeners... This radiantly beautiful sunflower, the size of a little saucer, was planted by wildlife. It has grown beside a small pine tree. It's a mystery who exactly planted it and how, but the resulting surprise is simply glorious!... ♥ With love and wonder-filled spirit, … [Read more...]

Endless surprises of Nature!... Life truly delights in continuously surprising us with its wonders... I don't know about you, but the mushrooms known as 'puffballs' that I've seen are never larger than a golf ball. THIS one that I happened upon however... is GIANT!... It radiates its white colour in the sunlight like a beacon in the middle of the clearing where it grew. I couldn't help but exclaim wonder out loud. I never tire of discovering more of Nature's miracles... … [Read more...]

I woke up bursting with creative energy! I was amazed to easily find everything I needed for a creative project, since most of my things are now packed in boxes... As I worked on my creation, my thoughts wandered... I found myself thinking about how trusting the process of my own journey (instead of comparing with everyone else's journeys) is KEY to joyfully savouring every moment, regardless what I'm doing... It's SO easy for all of us to compare with others, especially with the … [Read more...]
