Gathering Generosity

 

Hello dear friends! After a 10 day hiatus from Gathering Spriggs, I am back to bask in your presence once again. I've missed you all dearly while away. Honestly, I was amazed at the sincere feelings of lack in my heart from not being here with you daily. However, I was checking comments daily and felt your care, concern and wonderfully generous spirit.  Thank you for your heartfelt concern for my sister's loss. (She too was blessed by your kindness). She is feeling renewed after many days of grieving. Over the weekend she and three of my dear friends from high school came up from Texas for our annual Girls Weekend retreat. It was magical time for healing, laughter, tears, joy, conversation and of course ...shopping! You can read more about it and view some new images of my home at my dear friend, Ginny's blog. 

Yesterday I received a special surprise in the mail from a blogging friend and as the tears formed in my eyes I was reminded how generous our online community of soul sisters really is. So thank you! Thank you dear dear sisters. There is emptiness without you. 

All my love,

Heather

L.O.V.E.L.Y photos of your home! I wish that pictures could capture the other essential and evoking aspects of your house...like the scent of roses and the sound of birdsong through the open window and the strains of classical guitar wafting though the house. It is peaceful in every way: emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Thank you, precious friend.
