A Summer Solstice Magic Monday
When a month gives you five Mondays, it’s magic not misery.
Hello dear friend,
We find ourselves blessed with another Magic Monday (you can read the last one and premise behind the term here ) - what a gift. I wrote this a while ago for my Alfie’s Studio website (a literal different lifetime ago) and really wanted to share it with you. So, SEO and google and whatever rankings that hate repetition be damned, here it is.
Sprinkle on some extra solstice sun (another warm one here today) and it really is a thing of beauty..
A manifesto for living well…
Take the scenic route. Swim in the sea. Talk to the trees. Enjoy grey skies as much as blue ones / Wear something fabulous. Be comfortable in your own skin. Use the good china every day. Eat with your fingers if you like / Listen to something moving. Dance like it’s your last night on earth. Nourish your mind, body and soul. Do something you love every day / Eat from the hedgerow. Feast from the earth. Grow something good / Make lifelong friends with a fictional character. Find yourself in love with someone you’ll never meet / Don’t be afraid to eat two ice creams in one day. Memorise the way the heat from the sun feels on your skin and save it for a rainy day / Enjoy the journey, don’t race to the destination. Let yourself drift, but always down the right path / Stay in touch with friends. Write letters often / Celebrate big things. Remember to share the little stories of your life too. Think of stories that would make you proud to have lived your life. Then make them happen.
Yours always in the pursuit of magic,
