....tapping into my wise self

i recently just finished up the blessing and yumminess of 

WINTER SOUL LODGE with my sister, earth mama, 

the keeper of the fire Pixie Campbell .... 

an experience i am certain i can eloquently put into words ... 

so i have decided to list words that sum up 

bits and pieces of my experience that was 

WINTER SOUL LODGE

i'm so sad to see this beautiful, beautiful experience

come to a close ... but i know, beyond the shadow

of a doubt, that it has changed me and 

that it will stay with me...

 linger, wrap its tentacles around me gently,

stir me up, remind me, show me .... 

time and time again.

thank you Pixie  (you continue to teach me)

and all my gorjuss, magical

soul lodge sisters.

(you are living radiance)

peaceandlove,

....things i am diggin

there is so much happening out there in the creative realm that i WISH i had the time and resources for ...

like this that my sweet wild woman friend Pixie is heading up...she is a force to be reckoned with and someone i am grateful to have in my life .... i am hopeful she does this again so i can join in on all the goodness that is happening amongst the tribe of women involved ...

and this .... that my peace loving friend Kelly is a part of...she is shine through and through and her creations are DEEEEEELICIOUS ... again, hopeful they do this again so i can take part in all the beauty and dreaming that will evolve....

and this ... oh man...what i wouldn't give to be able to be two places at once ... Liz puts on amazing retreats ....well, how can she not ... SHE is AMAZING... and two of my scarf sisters are taking part in all that is creative magic at this retreat ... Mindy and Vivienne ...can i just say ... they knock my socks off!


and last but certainly not least...
my brave girl sister Lara...
she just added some AMAZING skirts and purses and pillows
to her etsy shop ... i have mad love for
these sweet creations.

(i want them all!!)

as i sit here and look at the names of these women that i count in my blessings ... i feel grateful...inspired...in awe.


yep.
i. dig. them.
and all that they are!


peaceandlove,
kolleen
