seventy-three

today...
the skies were bright 
the sun was warm
my heart was light.
soaked it all in with
a long walk and
a big smile.
 and then...
home to my mailbox to find my *gift of jewels* waiting for me. 
what an absolute delight!  
many thanks to beverly for the most lovely and thoughtful little gifts.
and to se'lah for organizing this wonderful exchange.  
i really, really enjoyed the entire thing.  
the one i crafted was received recently too and the sweet recipient posted about it here.
the simplest things can bring such happiness...
and lastly...
this past week has been full of artistic inspiration.
sparking and sparkling inside.
a dear friend who makes exquisitely beautiful music
came to visit from far away.
we dove deep into conversations and spent some
thrilling time in the studio, sharing and improvising and planting
the seedlings for this new piece.
a true honor and joy to be embarking on this collaboration.
i feel alive and awake.
cannot wait to see what happens next.
