From pottering around in the kitchen to wandering through the nearby glen, slowing down is so nourishing to the soul.

The Caledonian Sleeper Train from Scotland to London 🚞 The Caledonian sleeper train is an overnight train between Scotland and England. We took the lowlander route from Glasgow, which left at 11:40pm and arrived in around 8:00am. A usual day train would only take around 4.5 hours, but as the sleeper isn't a high speed train, the travel time is longer - this allows for a full night's sleep. You ...

Dealing with Seasonal Depression by Embracing Simple Joys Ah, it's been a tough Winter this year. Coming out of it, my mood has been very low, verging on a kind of seasonal depression. I use my SAD lamp, go to the gym, and get outside. But still, the lingering low mood remains. I recently learned a new term which covers it: anhedonia.

    I'm always excited to see a post from you! You have a very lyrical mastery of language and your videos are visual poetry. I know I've left this comment before, but you really do need to write a book or short story! Autumn and winter are my two favorite seasons! Spring is exciting because of all the 'new' in nature. Then there's summer... the older I get, the more I dislike humidity and excessive heat! LOL Where I live (western NC), this autumn has been somewhat challenging due to all the election drama and the post-effects of tropical storm Helene. However, all is good! Thanksgiving is just around the corner and then...CHRISTMAS!!! My all-time favorite time of the year!!!

    The alteration of footage to disscussion, the editing, cool to warm color contrasts, overall color scheme, voulme consistency- the all in all vibe, it was really there. There are just so many details to point out but it can be summed up as high quality. I rarely comment on stuff but I think it's super important to tell (what I think as) smaller channels when you have everything there. The only reason I can think of as to why you don't have more attention is the algorithim so keep that confidence high.♥

    I'm so sorry to hear of your grandfather's passing. What a lovely memorial to your grandfather. Treasure the memories you have of your grandfather. You have such a sweet and sensitive soul, As you spoke of seasons of life it brought to mind that there are many folks in my area of western NC currently going through probably the worst trauma they will experience in their life. [Google 'tropical storm 'Helene' and Appalachian mountains.] I have been without power, internet, or cell (text & call) service since last Friday at 7AM. Fortunately, my property did not sustain any damage. I was extremely fortunate! Live each day with purpose and as if it were your last.

She passed in 2018 and I could not afford to go back to Seattle and in addition watched it from afar go down hill. It use to be fairly safe and without people struggling on the streets for the most part. I lived near Port Townsend, on a sailboat in Winslow and then Seattle.
