Under a Fluttering Light



Dai Ko My
I have a person in my life,
I find hard to take.
I have a person in my life,
I cannot easily escape.
I ask for stillness, wisdom and the strength to be kind,
To be understanding and show compassion,
 When they speak their mind.
To be able to brush away hurtful words and tones,
And lastly to remember,
I am never alone.

Nature's cocktail

What better, and might I add more delicious way, to connect with nature then to drink it, right? 

This is my favourite fresh juice at the moment.

Carrot, celery, beetroot, ginger and apple.

I’ve also discovered that I’ve nailed my cocktail with it being the perfect combination of ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ foods according to Tibetan medicine. 

Did I mention that it is also deliciously scrumptious?

The beginning...


I’m off to a good start.


I recently had a reading with a clairvoyant who among many things encouraged me to connect with my surroundings, feel nature’s presence and learn to touch more.

Not two weeks have passed and my boyfriend and I have packed up our busy inner city lives with whir wind pace and landed in far north Queensland – Dorothy style. Well at least that’s what it felt like.


It marks the beginning of our year of travel.

We’re starting with two months in far north Queensland on banana farm in the middle of nowhere –more formally known as Bombeeta. You want nature? BAM! I’m dead set in the middle of it – bugs, toads, rodents and all.

It has taken some time but farm life has slowly begun eroding away my city girl ways and I’m learning to enjoy having the wilderness in my home. This has not been without the occasional minor breakdown of course, and insect repellent, lots of insect repellent! This new home is spoilt with natural beauties to explore, and explore it I shall.

Dreaming



It started with a dream. 

I have no recollection of this dreams beginning or ending, only the feeling it left me with: an irrefutable need to start a blog.

I had it designed. The creativity that would be unleashed, the ideas that would flourish and the magic I would create. I was convinced that this was my calling – so much so I had an argument with myself to wake up and ink all this inspiration down. Regrettably, this did not eventuate. I managed to convince myself that I had in fact woken up and put all these thoughts to paper - in reality my indulgent side won and I continued my sleep non-the wiser. 

A month ago I had a physic reading. It was the second in my lifetime and reaffirmed an unsettling feeling I’ve had for almost a year now - I have lost myself. I used to live to create. Lately, I’ve lived to exist. Distracted by three jobs, study and relationships I lost my drive and passion, and with it, myself.

So, here is to turning over a new leaf, reconnecting and unleashing my creativity. 

Hold on tight! 

Love Leelu
