Life at the Wee Cottage in the Woods.....Our memories can be a garden of delight as well as a garden of pain. Some days we walk through this garden and stop and enjoy those memories that bring us joy...that bring a smile to our hearts. Some days we pause at those moments that are painful...at the memories of things that have hurt us. Together these memories make up the tapestry of our life woven in rich colors as well as subdued colors. The overall effect is of who we are in this journey of life.
The purpose of this blog is to capture the garden of my life with photographs, inspirational quotes, stories of life, recipes of friends and family shared, and my own thoughts. This site is my legacy in my words and photos............. |

Purpose
I search my feelings and discover my purpose.
Thursday, September 24, 2020
When do I feel most vibrantly alive? What do I feel drawn to, and what is it that draws me in? Asking these questions with open and gentle curiosity allows me to discover my purpose.
I take time to deeply contemplate these questions, paying attention to everything that comes to my mind as I listen for answers.
Images of people and situations may begin to fill my awareness, and then I may notice that feelings and impulses start to surface.
My feelings and emotions provide powerful clues. Am I beginning to feel excited? Energized? Maybe I feel a deep sense of calm as I discern the rightness of an impulse. I heed these feelings as a prompt from Spirit within to follow the call of my heart.
The purposes in the human mind are like deep water, but the intelligent will draw them out.—Proverbs 20:5
