My safe harbour; the forest and together with trees.
My safe harbour is not a place. But rather that secret part of me that is filled with memory,music, poetry, and the wonder of unfolding life. Does that work?

Hi Malin, yes I can empathise about the forest and the trees. Such magic all year round and a great sense of continuity.
Home at my mom and dad’s–in the barn or the corral, feeding Rio and Jenny.
Suz, that sounds like safe harbour, for sure. You paint such a lovely picture. xx

Hi Stan, yes that works perfectly! A lovely way of putting it ~ a sort of inner sanctum?
I’m with Stan – sometimes I can’t wait to close my eyes to go there x
Emily, thanks for writing. Interesting how many places we can go when we close our eyes.
Lovely post, Jean, and I would have to say my safe harbour is my family and being out in nature. ♥
Thanks Lauren. Hard to beat family and nature, that’s for sure!
Here my blog is my safe harbour.xxx
Interesting point, Willow. I suspect that our blogs are ‘safe harbours’ for many of us.
My safe harbour is Christ Jesus in my heart… as well as any time/place my husband is near 🙂 ❤ ❤
Lovely response, Jackie! Thanks.
