It's started

After lots of planning my sabbatical has finally arrived!  Surprisingly being on sabbatical has been less stressful than my anticipation of it. I've had to confront some insecurities in myself in the run up to the start of it.

Monday saw Claire, Rachelle, Hannah and I walking along East Wittering beach - it was a beautiful day and precious moments to savour the gift we've been given.

I found my attention drawn to the pebbles on the beach - all of them different, all of them touching the pebbles around them, at one time being used to smooth other pebbles and on other occasions being smoothed by the pebbles around them - no-one pebble more important or beautiful than another. 

As the pebbles on the beach I feel we are in our interactions with others.  I took lots of positive affirmation away from the moments on the beach.
