Softly softly

Softly, softly creeps Spring

Softly, softly creeps Spring
Her soft warm colors are a delight to the eye
The beautiful pale green buds unfolding
The slender grasses reaching for the sun
The soft pink and white blossom
Their petals falling on you as you walk through the park
You are bathed in pale pink
Your hair is adorned with pink and white blossom
You tread softly on Mother Earth
She is waking up from the long Winters sleep
You are waking up
You are ready to greet the Spring

Streaming ideas

I am often asked why my Waldorf inspired needle felt art is  different

I think the reason why my needle felting is a little different is because I do not have much history behind me.
Meaning that New Zealand is such a young country that my ideas are fresh, from the Southern Hemisphere, which has a very different vibe to( Europe the home of Waldorf)
I am not restricted to the normal Waldorf ideas
Some purists might say, I am not being true to the Waldorf way, (maybe my colors are a wee bit brighter than is acceptable or some such) but I reply that, being an island nation, I take what streams towards me from the cosmos and turn it into what it is.
I was really lucky to have an experience with Rudolf Steiner who said that the work I was doing in the world was much needed, bringing light into the world through my art.
So there you have it

Letting Go

When you no longer feel the love for something, you must let it go

When you no longer can be bothered with something, you must let it go

By holding on tight to something that you are no longer  interested in

Only creates disharmony in your life

You start resenting the person, the people, the group, the space etc

By holding on just in case you might miss out on something is silly

That something never may happen

Why waste your energy on an unhappy situation 

By letting go, you are inviting new things into your life

It is not easy to let things go, but you are stronger than you think

Change is never easy, but it can bring new direction and hope.

Love and light  Marie
