Little Wings: Be brave

... even when you are vulnerable

A few of my readers responded through private messages about the post I wrote about my garden - which had the unexpected interlude of exploring the word brave. ... face up with an open heart to the experience of illness.

" ...I spend half my time wondering am I better off resting than doing activities that cause pain/distress but your article really helped me to get my head around being brave and encourages me to continue to be brave."

That brought me to a handmade book I made back in 2010, after a very challenging period with the illness. In short- it is a 36 page book with my bird photographs taking in my garden. And in a strange way, these very birds shared their wisdom with me.

As I wrote about this book, which I made for myself, I got so much interest that I made a limited edition- and beyond that it was printed as a tiny little book (10cm square) small, so the reader can bring the wisdom of the birds in their pocket.
