September Special Edition

Hi again,

Another month, another extra (special) newsletter. There’s a general sense of dread that has been following me around, but I’m also embracing the idea of shedding. Of meandering and arriving at new, undefined paths. Of making time for cloud watching and colour spotting.

I don’t get out much, but today I did, and that pink carpet of bougainvilleas on the street outside my house was just so glorious, it made leaving my nest worth the walk.

Been trying to learn and embody this all month:

“The secret of being happy consists of knowing how to enjoy yourself—enjoy being at table, in bed, enjoy standing up, sitting down, enjoy the nearest ray of sunshine, the slightest bit of landscape: in other words, love everything.”
-Gustave Flaubert, from a notebook
