Laundry dried and neatly folded...smelling of fresh...
Two friends who have loved each other for a long time finally being free to marry and have the life they have made together recognised and celebrated...
Another friend whose eldest daughter marries today...
A note tucked in to my in-box that means the world of love and encouragement to me...
Some of the loveliness is happening a long way from here...but loveliness has a way of stretching out...its tendrils seeking places to wrap around and joyful if it finds a heart...
Here's another lovely thing...from a long way away...my friend Diane Lowrie is a photographer with a gift for seeing things up close and capturing their beauty. I've admired her photographs for a long time but I had not noticed this one before...I hope you are as lifted by the loveliness as I am.

it is not far.
It will never be far.'
