Love an Inspirational Corner on a Thursday

I was over at Christina's blog today, Soul Aperture and was inspired by her to show you a little corner of my world.  This shelf on my desk sits at eye level, just to the right of my computer.

On the left is a candle margie bought me during our thanksgiving visit, you remember the one, that's the visit where we made a very bad choice of meeting place.

The triptych is St. Francis and belonged to Barry's late brother, Brian.  Brian was a hilarious, wonderful guy and a good friend to me.   I wish I could ask him where this came from, it is rustic and simple and so beautiful.

 

My marbles sit in a century old glass that likely came from our mother's mother and some of the marbles are likely margie's and our brother's.   

The paper weight was our father's and the tiny origami crane was picked up on our recent trip to Ottawa to visit our families.

Hmmmm.   Isn't it interesting how I thought I had gathered a little collection of things I love and grouped them together because of colour and shape and then not realized until this very moment that I've gathered mementos of family here. 

Sometimes I give myself what I need without even knowing I'm doing it.

Happy Love Thursday!

It's funny how that happens eh?! I love little corners like this.

Our hearts *do* always seem to know what we need. The hard part is being quiet enough to listen. Oh okay and for it's having the courage to let go and just let what's meant to happen *happen* - but you know what I mean.

Happy Love Thursday!

At least you have all your marbles and know where they are!

I LOVE that idea! My workspace needs a personal touch...a little love altar :)
Thanks for sharing!

We really should start sharing these corners once a month. It says so much about us. I absolutely love the marbles in the jar. : )
