hello flora,

i hear i will be meeting you very soon. i'm quite excited about this, i've never met a french person before.

i thought you should know, i'm actually quite shy around new people. i might even growl at you when you first come in.

but i will soon get over it. i like people who are over the top and loud, those are my favorite kind of people. i get on with them best.

and don't worry. i can see fine out of my eyes. this is the hair look i am going for.

kisses,

zoe bloom.

The hol is starting today.
And so is the strike all over French Guiana!
I'm starting to think that they are more on strike than at work! No petrol anywhere anymore. And I'm hoping we will be able to leave today!?!?

Here's to a happy hol :)
and total fun!

i think

february is the month for a zine. for new things. for more books.
i think february is my month for mourning the cullen family. i'm not kidding, i have read the saga three times over since i got it. and i know for a fact i could start it again right now.
but i think i have to show some restraint, and maybe not read it for the whole of february.
but i'm not making any promises.
because i miss them dearly already.
just letting you know, yo.

hello february.

Here's to us seeing each other again.
Soon.
Long chats.
And boring tv.
And Alice/Hector playing.
And walks with lady Z.
And cups of tea.

It is past midnight in beautiful England. But it is still the 1st in hot South America.

Happy Feb to you!

Just like there are different seasons in a year, so there are different kind of processes in my life.
For my soul.
For my body.
For my heart.
And this is a cleansing season.
Fresh breeze.
New.
And restoration.
Just like rain passes and refreshes everything that on its way... so I am like a flower who's been watered.

Sparkle of truth.

And ultimately forgiveness is a gift of grace rather than an act of will. I have to be willing to forgive, but I cannot will myself to forgive. I can forgive with my mind, but forgiveness is finally a matter of the heart. And the forgiveness of the heart comes from God, not from me. My part in is to be willing to accept it.
But I have also learned, and I have learned through pain, that I must be patient with myself. Just as my body is going to need more time to complete its healing from the physical trauma of accident, so my heart, my spirit also need time, and I, ever impatient, must be patient with myself.

-Madeleine L'Engle "The Rock That Is Higher"

Words written fifty years ago, a hundred years ago, a thousand years ago, can have as much...power today as ever they had it then to come alive for us and in us and to make us more alive within ourselves... And when these words tell of virtue and nobility, when they move us closer to that truth and gentleness of spirit by which we become fully human, the reading of them is sacramenta; and a library is as holy a place as any temple is holy because through the words which are treasured in it the Word itself becomes flesh again and again and dwells among us and within us, full of grace and truth.

- Frederick Buechner, A Room Called Remember

New Years Eve

Deep peace of the running wave to you.

Deep peace of the flowing air to you.

Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.

Deep peace of the shining stars to you.

Deep peace of the infinite peace to you.
