MICROSCOPIC – #flashfictionmagic

#flashfictionmagic #sheri yutzy

MICROSCOPIC – #flashfictionmagic Let your breath blow soft across the day. Let it grow, let it breathe, let the earth warm beneath your feet. Feed the animals and marvel at their forms. When the rain begins midmorning, watch the brave birds still perched on fence posts, keep half an eye on the shadows of the […]

THE SEA BREEZE – #flashfictionmagic

#flashfictionmagic #sheriyutzy

THE SEA BREEZE – #flashfictionmagic The seaward corner of the cabin creaked, and Mari’s gaze snapped toward the door, the tiny window, all the weak spots. Was the sea breeze blowing again already? She should have another three hours. Three hours to mend her nets, make fish head stew, perhaps have a nap. Before the […]

BLOOM – #flashfictionmagic

#flashfictionmagic by Sheri Yutzy

BLOOM – #flashfictionmagic When the earth bloomed, spread its petals far and wide like the flower it was, the world was changed. No longer a sphere. New York spread beside Hong Kong, Australia tucked next to the United Kingdom. Something new came out of the center. We called it the Circle, and within it, strange […]

BROKEN PROMISE -#flashfictionmagic

#flashfictionmagic #sheriyutzy

A BROKEN PROMISE – #flashfictionmagic She hit the alley floor with a grunt, rolling swiftly to rise. Her blades felt warm and sure in her hands, the crisp fall air sweeping her mind free of morning lethargy. Gaining her feet, she spun to meet his sword. Metal clashing rang against the walls. She pushed his […]

I am still alive here, just living the garden life I am still alive here, just living the garden life.🌿
I came down with social fatigue last weekend (that’s what I’m calling it) and the remedy seems to be gardening.
It was lovely to come home from my trip and find a raised bed full of spinach and radishes (and some other things I don’t recognize). Today I planted tomatoes.
I’ll return to my regular posting when my well is full. 
🌿I hope you all have a lovely week!🌿

Recommend a book! When I first read this little b Recommend a book!

When I first read this little book soon after I was married, I was thoroughly startled.
It’s that kind of book.
I’ve never read a book that made me more thrilled about getting older. More hopeful about finding simplicity.
I reread it every time I go through a life change or feel off kilter and out of harmony with myself.
Each chapter holds deep insight about finding focus, relaxing into relationships, resting in the ebb and flow of life.
She shows so clearly that it’s not necessary to leave everything behind to find simplicity. It is possible to let simplicity come and go and let its effects remain, even with households to run, children to care for, or jobs to manage.
Hopeful possibility is the phrase that lingers in my mind.

Now it’s your turn. What inspiring book do you recommend I read next?

Thinking back on the beautiful white daffodils of Thinking back on the beautiful white daffodils of early spring…
The colors of the earth deepen and grow more vibrant as time goes on, until they rest again beneath the stark white and black of winter.

What’s your favorite season? I really can’t choose.🌿

🌿 I’ve been told many times To be afraid for 🌿
I’ve been told many times
To be afraid for my children
That I will regret not holding them tighter.
It’s as if fear is a currency, and if I don’t have enough, I haven’t earned motherhood.
I will never accept this,
for Jesus has taken my fear.
He is enough.

“Fear not.”
-Jesus.
I spent the evening following these two along the river bank, finding all the ant hills and burrows and mushrooms. No wonder Jesus cares for these, I thought. They are the best at finding all the magical good in the world.
