Corner View - Sacred

Sacred is often associated to places where a religious activity is held (whatever the religion is)

But to me it is more a sort of atmosphere, of feeling, a combination of wonder and peace, of thrill and calm, of questions that are answers..... and that I find in nature!

Corner view is a weekly appointment where wonderful people from around the world meet to share a theme. More at Fuoriborgo.

so happy to read...

As I promised, i'm trying to write here a bit more, and get back to the good habits.

Life has been exceptionally FULL of things and happenings, no tragedies or bad things, just being busy in tring to juggle eerything. There were some hard moments at work (surprise, surprise), and emergencies to deal with in the family, but all in the usual framewok, nothing really "new".

But first of all I want to warmly thanks all the people who left encouraging and happy comments, which lifted my spirit AND made me smile a lot! Thank you, really, dear readers and friends. That's said, I'll try to summarise the last month AND then get back to the usual knitting and photographic posts. Because there has been much going on in this month!

A lot of waking up early

Working till late

Driving and moving (I have developed this new habit of waking up somewhere in the morning without knowing where I'll be sleeping the next night, but all this is not bothering me, as I have plenty safe spaces waiting for me!).

We had a wonderful travel (work related, but not only)

corner view - grow

After a little silence, here I am back again!

It has been quite a changing year for me, all about "growing" in many senses.
I have grown some skills, and some inner energies I didn't know. It is quite tiring but also rewarding.

One of the things I would have always liked to do is to learn drawing, and now I'm practicing a bit, and my confidence has grown enough to show you some of my doodles!

More growth histories at Fuoriborgo, where ll the corner viewers from around the world leave a comment!

We work in the dark — we do what we can — we give what we have. 
Our doubt is our passion and our passion is our task. 
The rest is the madness of art.

a.b. 17 - the month of finishing!

During this August I decided to finish several things that were hanging there, sometimes for years like this one.
I feel so well finishing things, it's like lifting away a little burden..... And this one was a special one, as it had made it in my life list!

By the way, it wasn't much work, and it really is beautiful. And now it is already with its owner, who has been waiting for SO long. Thanks for the patience, mum!!!!

‘Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?’
‘That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,’ said the Cat.
‘I don’t much care where -’ said Alice.
‘Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,’ said the Cat.

corner view - fauna

Yesterday I was working in the field, all day in the woods up in the mountains.
So I had the luck to spot several animals, but the easier to photograph were butterflies.
