there's a spot, on the furthest end of the couch, where one can sit and see nothing but water and rock and the green of trees newly bloomed.
i sat here the first day and thought. this is where i will come. to sit and write and drink my coffee. to begin my day with a quiet prayer. and feel my body hum with gratitude.
i am slowly learning that things happen just as they meant to. time unfolds and reveals us to ourselves.
and for now, those are the only words i have.

You are poet. Seriously, this post was like catching a glimpse into Walt Whitman's soul. Marvelous.
I stumbled upon your blog recently and I have to say your an amazing writer. I love how real and open you are expressing your thoughts and feelings. You sound like such a lovely person! (:
This is a really lovely photo of you :)
This is a really beautiful picture of you. Your blog is so encouraging--thank you.
gorgeous! and i'm guessing this is your new apartment? so bright and warm, definitely has an amazing vibe! so exciting. xox
thank you for that, I loved those words.
I agree with Emily, you ARE a poet. Every post takes such simple things (don't we all have that special spot) and makes them gorgeous. Love it.
meg, you are so stunning....
I have a chair like this in my bedroom. Peace is palpable there and ideas (and sometimes forgiving thoughts if my husband is lucky... ) flow. I love this post. Your writing is lovely and inspiring. Please don't stop.
beautiful. i love having a favorite "spot." :)
That's such a beautiful picture, too!
gorgeous photo of you!
hey, seems like you got a really nice living room there! congratulations ;-) there´s nothing better than a space for just hanging out, especially if you didn´t have one for a while! i can relate, i live in stockholm, where i´m sure the housing market was inspired by some 70´s soviet system. sweet picture!
"feel my body hum with gratitude"...what a lovely phrase.
Please write a book or something. The way you put words together is so inspiring.
Splendid. I look forward to what you unravel and the things you share.

and such beautiful words they are! i am so glad i read this post today.
Lucky girl. Alas, all I can see from my window is the small, yappy dog across the street.
ADORE the liberal application of stripes in this post and the one a few down. i am wearing stripes today, myself :)

#3 i heart thee. xo!
You are such a sweet, succinct writer. Yay for having a safe, serene spot to "hum" gratefully.
i really like this picture. you look cute and i like the flowers.
OK, I think this is my fourth comment on your blog today? You are so fab and I just want to tell you- you look like a glamourous french girl in that photo, and the daffodils are so lovely :)
