The meme used as the feature photo was created by my daughters, boyfriends, father. That’s a mouthful. My friend Jeanne on WordPress recently discovered that I’d let go of Letitgocoach for this blogsite and she called this blog, my ‘secret’ blog. I hadn’t thought about it, but it kinda is. I’m not here to be seen, but I’m grateful to be read. My hope is who reads what’s written here will gather a sense of peace and stillness to surround them in their circumstances.
I spent Saturday repotting plants. Just moving them into a pot one size larger than what they were in. The next morning they looked happier, a little more free with space for their roots to roam. I repotted one that I’d been procrastinating repotting because it’s large, yet fragile. I didn’t have the right type pot for it, so went in search for one at a couple of garden centers, but this guy is 5′ tall, so I wanted a lightweight pot to be able to move it with ease. Lightweight equates to plastic, which I’m not a fan of. As I stood gazing at the large, plastic pots on the shelf of the garden center I wondered, ‘I know you’re plastic, but why must you scream plastic?’
While shopping, I knew there’s a pot sitting in my yard that would work, but it’s made of clay. It’s heavy when empty, so I couldn’t imagine how heavy it would be filled with dirt and a tree. This plant was so root bound, I had to cut the container off of it, but once I placed it in the pot, it stood tall. I watered it thoroughly while outside knowing once I brought it inside, I wasn’t sure how I was going to manage watering it again. (Still pondering that) By God’s grace I was able to carry it inside, back to it’s designated place by the double windows. It has new growth and in this pot it can breath a little easier, and spread out a little more during the winter months which is similar to what my heart whispers about this blogsite.
It’s a new pot just one size larger than the last…a place for your roots to roam, but will reveal signs of growth, yet all the while finding rest in your natural self.

I totally agree ‘secret’ blog because when you said you were going to leave your other blog alone and, write here instead as I started reading many of your posts and seeing when you written those, I thought, I can’t remember you ever mentioning this blog before. If you had, then I either had forgotten or missed the post when mentioning it before. Yet, you have been writing for some time here.
It’s certainly a peaceful blog. But I felt peace just the same at your previous.
Enjoy writing further here and I will enjoy reading and visiting your blog. Xx

Hi Liz. Yes, I did write here when led. It was mainly moments I didn’t want to forget, just in case they were book worthy. This blog hasn’t received a large amount of views which gives it a feeling of ‘under the radar’. Thank you for being here. xx

We do need space for both our roots and leaves to grow. I’m enjoying your no-longer secret blog, and I appreciate the sentiment of people just coming to read something comforting, quiet – it’s good, like sitting curled up and cozy in a good friend’s home. (And thanks for the mention 🙂 )
p.s. There is no image with this post, so I’m confused by your mentioning one. Am I missing something?

Hey Jeanne. The feature photo is what I was referring to which should be at the top of the post, sitting above the title. You are welcome and thank you lovely! ✨

I see the photo now – I was logged into Safari (a little old on my Mac); now I’m in Firefox. I love it. 🙂

Similar to us plants need room to grown and become more of themselves.
It is so pleasurable to look at the plants after reporting. They do look happier!!
Blessings!!
