In search of a possible future..

I can feel spring edging its way in gradually in Northumberland. :) I'm staying at my Mum's in Hexham and the last couple of days I have been woken by a great chattering and twittering and cooing of blackbirds and pigeons, (well there the sounds I can recognise anyway). The sun is making a return.
Yesterday I went in search of a pretty stone cottage on top of a hill in Haydon Bridge, with gorgeous views, green hills as far as the eye can see, oak trees and walls dripped in Ivy. It helped that the moon was out in the day, nearly full and there was a wisp of pink in a dusky sky. The cottage was idyllic, but teeny tiny. Pretty treacherous in the ice and snow.
I walked back, past the river and saw 2 Kestrels! I saw a house, with much more ample space, a garage and a garden, which while it is not the pretty picture post card type, is a lot more suited to our needs and a lot more practical. I could see myself and Stu creating a home.
So my challenge with this new found time to be and therefore to dream, is to stay in today, to look at what I can do which increases possibilities and wonder for the future months to come. Keep my options wide enough to embrace all that could be manifested.
Spend a bit of time each day getting closer to where I would like to be personally and let time and fate dictate the rest.
