The Oracle of Stillness- Learning from the Child

This Woven Woman is ‘Learning From the Child’ from my Oracle of Stillness series.

I am inspired to post this one, because I adore the Kindergardener from next door.

He drops by sometimes for little visits and it’s always a delight to have a chat with him.

It feels like it was only moments ago that he was a tiny babe in arms and now, he’s taking ski and snowboard lessons and painting the Northern Lights with alcohol ink and watercolors.

I love looking into his eyes and seeing the sparkle of discovery and the joy in mastering new things.

Every journey, no matter how long or short or why it’s happening, is fueled by Hope.

She is a celebration of courage, curiosity, resiliency and healing. May all your journeys be filled with grace and sweet surprises and may you enjoy the detours and not drift into the overwhelm or sorrows.

Oracle of Stillness: Motherhood

I love our 5 year old next door neighbour so much!

The doorbell just rang- He needed to tell us that he had shot his Nerf into the air and hit our roof and was sorry and could he have the nerf bullets back next spring when we clean the gutters?

And, he was freezing and could he please stay in the studio for awhile to warm up?

His Mum said ‘No… we can warm up at home’.

‘But I like it here’. (Aww)

We chatted a bit and then I gave our neighbor/friend back a plant that she had given me when it was tiny and it has now gotten too big for the shelf.

We laughed about trying to get rid of clutter, and the wee boy announced solemnly that Miss Noreen has a LOT OF CLUTTER.

Which I agreed to and then folded up with laughter as his Mum tried to shush his discussion of too much clutter and herd him out the door at the same time.

It was wonderful and I am still laughing. (But Mum, you SAID we have to get rid of our clutter!)


Which brings me to today’s mixed media Woven Woman from the Oracle of Stillness:


“The Songs of Motherhood: Love, Celebration, Laments, Loss, Learning, Essence” and how on earth did I forget to add “LAUGHTER” to her naming?

She hereby will be blessed with the addition of one of life’s greatest gifts: “LAUGHTER”.

And, of course, love… the best gift of all! ❤
