life's little pleasures: joys of summer.

Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape. Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

taste of summer

Hello little dreamers & bright shining stars.

So, it seems we already have August, can you believe it? Summer is in full bloom and gives us hot summer days.

It has been a bit quiet here,the last few weeks. I went through a tough time, with rumors behind my back, struggling with life itself and with my whole self. I just needed some time for myself to sort things out. Luckily, I have some wonderful friends and a loving family who support me in everything. I concentrated on all the beautiful and simple things in life:

• I went out for dinner with my mum and sister
• I invited my mum and stepdad for dinner - as a thank you for their help during my move
• I spent a day with my dad, who came for a visit
• I ate ice cream with friends 
• I watched period dramas
• I drew in my art journal again, the first time since october 2012
• I savored every taste this season gives us. Everywhere you can buy all kind of delicious fruits
• I enjoyed my two week holiday
• I attended a local set dance workshop incl. ceílí
• I grabbed my camera to capture the beauty of nature

Usually, I am not a summer person, but this year, I am enjoying this season very much!
Little by little I learn to live with the seasons.

I hope you enjoy this season.  Be free, happy, danceful and uninhibited!
