Whilst I am certainly not a fan of the Saw films, this was a must-have for my horror Pop Funko collection.
Spent the day in the garden chilling and making the most of the Summer weather.
A richly-hued leaf fluttered to the ground before me as I read, reminding me of the ever- rotating wheel of the season. Autumn will be here before we know it. I tucked the leaf in my book as a useful bookmark, and savoured the heat of the sun all the more day because it transient nature.
I love the effects our garden fires have on our fire-bin. It almost looks enchanted lol.
There is a definite primitive pleasure to be savoured in the act of creating and settling for the evening before a garden fire. As well as clearing the garden of debris collected from the maintenance of hedges and shrubbery and other natural waste, it also allows the mind to discard the clutter of everyday thought. Its warmth and wonder roots your body before its flames, allowing the mind the time immerse itself in contemplation. Its meditative quality is primordial, its metamorphosis of matter a personal invitation to return to deeper reflection.
A swig or two on the fermentation of certain fruits aids the journey away from the mechanised and digitalised world of your everyday reality. And suddenly, if you permit it, you can explore an ancestral magic that is a rich and powerful balm for you soul.
