Twenty-five years ago I started this blog. It commenced at the start of what came to be five years during the winter months when I spent the weekdays at the cottage by the sea that I rented just an hour and a half from home. That's when I began this blog:
A Cottage by the sea; a blog for those who are looking for silence, solitude, and simplicity, and who sometimes want to be alone.
Every so often I review the purpose of the blog to see it if still holds true: it must be, because I am still posting, although not from the cottage. I still look for silence, solitude, and simplicity and I sometimes want to be alone. In fact, I continue to be satisfied and content with these longings. There is nothing I want to change about them.
√ for Silence: I'm still working on it--not so much external silence, but internal-- in my head.
√ for Solitude: I have enough, and when I don't, I know how to get it.
√ for Simplicity: I've simplified my life style and all the stuff I have, but there is more to be done.
I am very grateful for the longings and the life challenges they offer.
