well, blessed are those who have love in their world!
spent the weekend hanging with the family...three generations, lots of food, drink and lots of laughter
we all went for breakfast at the ever famous shady rest eatery thats sits perched above the oceans edge. it is a non descript place as far as the food and experience, but the real treat is walking the length of beach that stretches out before it .
low tide gave us many grand sightings of lion-mane jelly fish held fast to the dry rocks and gravel. strange creatures, translucent and curious;they beg you to touch them. nancy, aka gramma, is a local writer and photographer who had just published an article on the jelly fish. she explained the presence of so many of them today. it seems the have a very short life cycle that begins in april and ends in october. the bright red hues are such a contrast to the grey gravel and rocks of the sea shore.
walking the beach alone with your thoughts allows some pretty deep thinking. i thought of how this year is coming to an end and how forward looking i have become. and most important of all people who have touched my world, both positive and with challenges, this past year. i am fully balanced, at peace and open to a new year. 2009 is my year says my sage...how grand is that thought?
so, with a turkey and pie hangover firmly planted on my hips i arrive home having been energised. the family celebrations are such a grand time of togetherness, story telling and memory making.
