It was a very amazing experience, and I think because of children’s imagination. We all need a bit of imagination in our lives! Thank you Karen! πŸ€—πŸŒ€πŸ«ΆπŸΌ

Very true. It’s so nice to hear about all the outdoor experiences, that you and your children have, instead of reading about them sitting with their noses in their IPads all the time! πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–β˜ƒοΈ

Amazing journey into wonderment.

Thanks Jerry! I can truly say that that moment in the field felt as if I really was wading in dream sand and hurrying to the gates.🫢🏼⏳

What a lovely, wonderful piece! When that gauzey line between dream and waking starts to blur you know you're on the right track. Good on you for leading your gang with such spirit and whimsy. Glad to have found your work!

I'm so attached to Finnland images and stories. One of my best friends was from Finnland and she would talk about growing up there. She was definitely "Sisu".

Lovely to hear! My Substack is the right place then! I live in southern Finland with my family, and we really love nature β€” almost everything we do is connected to it. It’s great to hear your friend is Finnish. With sisu, keep going! πŸ«ΆπŸΌπŸ€—
