I thought about using this space to show the interior of my house with all the finished and unfinished quilts piled up or unfolded across beds and chairs and on the floor and on the wall, because then you might understand how much work I do and how I am always busy ....but...
this constant view of the Wikwemikong peninsula across the water of Manitowaning Bay is truer.
I stare out the window half the time it seems. That colour full sky gives me an answer, even when I didn't really ask a question. Here it is.
Here is the answer. Our lives are fragile and our timelines are speeding forward. We must be kind to each other and kind to ourselves.
It often does seem like there is an urgency to get things done, made, out there, but really, there is no rush. Don't rush. Go slow. I wish for you, my dear and appreciated blog readers, the very best for the new year. Be tender. Be slower. Allow softness and kindness to rule. Let's care.

What a moving sequence of pictures through time. You are right. There is no need to rush. The wheel of the seasons will turn and we will be carried. Happy New Year!
This sequence of magical skies and water as the seasons change is a gift from your generous heart. Your words also go straight to my heart. May we all find and share much kindness and compassion in the new year.
Beautiful photos of your view, Judy. I can see why it is so compelling. Strange to think that here, we mostly see our surrounding big-tree forest --a different kind of view...
I wonder how/if this affects us? The present world view seems a lot less than kind these days; doing our best here to keep hope in our hearts and kindness in our acts--Happy New Year
hugs, Julierose
(((Judy))) thank you for sharing your beautiful view and all the inspiration of your art through the years
Thank you, Judy, for this reminder to be slower, to take time, to be kinder and gentler to ourselves and others. That view is timeless and yet ever-evolving, as we are. I wish you and yours all the best for 2025 -- health and happiness, yes, but also the blessing of time, of quiet, of reflection. Thanks again.
Thank you, Judy. I’m so grateful for your writings and your work.
Yes, 'thank you' for your encouraging words. 'Allow softness and kindness to rule.'
