A lucky few find their path early on in life while the rest of us tend to diverge from it, knowing deep within their hearts and souls that our path is still there, just on the outskirts, but it’s just not our time yet.

 

For many years I traversed roads that were purposeful, bringing depth and wonderful meaning to my world, relishing in the joy that they brought, all the while seeing glimpses of my path just to the side, still waiting, smiling like an old school friend, ‘come visit when you get time’.

​

As life does, it brings you face to face with times that will test you and your ability to cling desperately on.  While looking for solace and a place to heal, a way to quite the voices and still the breath, early in 2023 I found myself back of my original track, standing on a levee in the cool autumn breeze waiting and watching for the right light, camera in hand, revelling in the beauty unfolding before me. It was a moment of such profound peace and happiness that I knew I needed to replicate it daily. 

​

After having a mini stroke in July 2024, today it is more poignant than ever to find myself in those moments.  This has led me to start Kardemumma an idea that had been bubbling away for the longest of times which now is seeing the light of day.

​

I hope you will join me on my path, wherever it leads me, as I explore all of the mediums that I have been longing to pursue for what seems like forever.
