Lost in Translation

Sometimes....
my efforts feel tattered....
I work SO hard,
then stop to see,
I have just made
a big circle
that comes back to
nowhere or nothing at all~

I am always here,
there
&
everywhere...


I'm Lost in Translation,

with a language of property investors....

Still.
Not really my language at all
of butterfly wings
&
dancing on the mOOn~


So just here to say...

I want to play with you,
come fly with you
&
I am sorry
I haven't been around too much.
So also,
this is my simple confirmation
to myself in "our world"
where magic HAPPENS,
that I know things will
payoff in the most
d e l i g h t f u l
way!


I hope your having a fun week

my darling butterflies~

XOXO

  9. I know exactly how you feel.... some days when I feel like I have worked so hard and I can't see any results, I just feel confused and deflated. Then on another day when I have actually really enjoyed the day and everything falls into place I think, those efforts have been rewarded. It is so hard because when you work hard and want to achieve, it is nice to see a little bit of progress each day. Thank-you for your lovely post and I am more than happy to get my butterfly wings out and see what magic can happen! Beautiful post and have a great week-end.

  10. Dear Janet,
    You are working so hard and, I'm sure that you are fulfilling everything that you intended. Sometimes when you do so much, it feels as if you are running round in circles, but, I'm sure you will see the fruits of your labours very soon and everything will slot into place and come together.
    Don't worry, you haven't missed much and we will still all be here when you come back out to play !!
    Don't work too hard and try to find a little bit of time for yourself. Take care, Janet. XXXX

  18. Dearest Janet,
    You definitely have the magic touch of creating serene images in the midst of chaos!

    Take care,

  36. Dearest Janet ~

    Your words and these images definitely were the pages of my story during the past few days. I'm now playing 'catch-up' on every single facet of life that was put on hold while I created, baked and decorated 6+ wedding cakes. The wedding was yesterday, and I must say, it was one of the most magical and organically blissful affairs I have ever attended. All my efforts and loving labors were beyond worthwhile....it was a garden fairytale filled with the perfect prince and princess! I caught myself many times thinking of you and how you and Noel would have appreciated all the glorious details and the stunning backdrop of nature's most exquisite Springtime offerings. The cakes were a huge success and not a morsel was left. And our crumb laughed, danced and chased turkeys and chickens like nobody's business.

    I'm hoping with all my heart that you define and seal this 'translation' soon. You deserve to play amongst the fairytale world we are lucky enough to cherish and behold on a daily basis.

    Much love and big hugs/kisses to you.
    ~Melissa
