Thoughts About Summer, The New To You

The new to you is a vibe that runs in the background of summer on the wave of yard sales, antique shops and second hand stores. We like to discover things, I feel, in a way that supports our inner love of adventure.

For this summer, I have an idea. Pick a second hand item or two look for on purpose as a treasure hunt.  

~ Bowls, ceramic, not chipped, and deep enough for a salad for two

~ Leather belts, worn soft that can be cut and sewn for tote straps

~ Vintage rhinestone cheap broaches to glue on a picture frame or lamp base.

What would you chose to look for?

Reflection Monday July 2025

Methinks:

No matter how old we are,

our personal growth

will always be

larger than our awareness

and ego.

You may feel life slowing down

but your soul

continues to absorb

all the joy of

 your personal growth.
