- 2 gardens down, 1 to go & my mood has lifted. I must remember to stay with the light. How can we help others if we ourselves walk in the darkness. Making other peoples gardens nice brings me great satisfaction. I wish everyone a peaceful & prosperous day ❤️❤️
- Today I feel the darkness descending upon me A deep saddness within my soul.I work on one of my gardens,its cold & a little wet but the sun is shining. Such a sunny day....
- My light went out & I was completely alone in the darkness. For many days, for many months, I was so sad, afraid & lost. Then I saw a light in the darkness & I followed it......it lead me back to the sinless innocent child I once was. And I finally began to understand....TJ- 2026
- My campervan sits & waits patiently for summer. I long to travel again. Hopefully I get enough work once more this year to be able to fund my trips. I stay in cheap places, the roadside is too dangerous here for women alone. I will work hard in the gardens & make it happen, the time will come...❤️🏕️🚍
- John 12:35 - Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going 🖤🤍
- Today Im working in the rain. I don't mind so much - it's honest work. I like to be digging the land.... it brings me peace...💙🤍
- Candlemass at the beautiful Rochester Cathedral. I no longer live here but I grew up & worked in Medway & spent much time here. I have started regularly going here again in between attending my local abbey for services after work when I can. Its worth the 44 mile round trip ❤️🙏
- Gorgeous ❤️❤️
- A beautiful sitting cat in the antique shop window display today. Unfortunately not for sale 😆❤️
- A beautiful cat sitting even....😂 Not a beautiful sitting cat! Typo sorry!
- Candlemass in the church today then off to Rochester cathedral for evensong and spontainiously stopped off in a pub in Rochester where a band were playing. Was a nice Sunday ❤️
- Oh wow - just came across some old photos. Me on the left in yellow as a 17 year old, with my sister no longer with us, on the right. At my nans house christmas 1987. 💙
- youtube.com/watch?v=BP4v... One of my favourite songs. A song about mental illness & abuse. No matter what path I take heavy metal music will always stay with me. It was & still is a big part of my life & its what got me through my lonely teenage years. 💙💙
- Lovely service at Rochester cathedral today. Coral evensong. ❤️
- Waterfalls in Wales last summer. Precious memories travelling the uk between working. I hope to see more of the Uk this year if I can get enough work to enable some more camping trips. I will work all the hours under the sun for these brief moments of exploration & happiness 💚🍀
- Last summer after a year of pretty bad depression I went a bit manic & decided in between work to travel around England with my daughter & the dogs fitting as much into the day as we could. We raced around everywhere in the campervan fitting in 5 or 6 destinations a day until it was midnight! ❤️❤️💙
- This was Gloucester city centre with my daughter back in July 2025 on our summer roadtrip. We had such a wonderful time & felt so alive & happy even though I couldnt really afford it. You ll never regret the adventures you make, you ll only regret the opportunities you don't take. Life is short💙
- A child that is subject to intense mental abuse daily for years by others will never be a normal adult. My heart is heavy my heart is still good. The child from before this is still alive. And the teenager that stood on the bridge is also still with me. I do my best Often sad but happy to be alive❤️
- Last job of the day.My customers fertilizer label made me laugh.😂On the downside I forgot my mask so I hope Im not ill breathing in the poop dust.Used my jumper as a makeshift filter.Although I worked with actual chickens & their poop for 3 years never wearing a mask & was always ok. Live in hope 🤞🏻🍀
- Another day, another dollar. One of my regular jobs, twice weekly clearing this garden. And its started to rain .....
- Its very easy for those with plenty,to sit in judgement of those with very little,being angry about those with even less.Its up to those of us who dont have that much to show compassion.Because if we cannot show it then we are not worthy to call ourselves human or to receive compassion ourselves🕊️🙏
- Today I am so so tired. I can barely stay awake. Im going to have a little sleep....Tomorrow will be better.....💙🙏
- I am watching the world around me fall apart........and the world around me.....fall apart 💔🖤🕊️
- Returning from this morning's communion at my beautiful ancient abbey, this week we had Bishop Rose. A very powerful & nice service 🙏❤️
- My heart is like a hole in space, dark but not empty. Within it shines a billion stars, each burning bright as tiny suns. But still its empty.... Teresa J - Jan 2026
- 3 years ago my daughter & I rescued this very sick gull,nursed him back to health & released him.I was sure he would die as he couldnt stand or eat for the first week.We even had him in our bathtub.To see him fly away was one of my proudest monents. I hope you became a fine bird Orion.Stay healthy ❤️
- Over oceans of time the right thing will come. At the right time. All that should be will find its way. And all that should not be will be lost.... I wait, patiently. Across the oceans of time.... Teresa J 2026
- I feel the darkness descending upon me once more. Like shackles around my ankles it pulls me down. I try to ride through it. I try to focus on the light....
- Its funny how I write my most beautiful lines in moments of intense pain but in the brief moments for what may pass as happiness I have absolutely no inspiration at all. Perhaps this means I am doomed to pain in the hope that one day, many years from now, people may one day read my words.....
- What is a cloud but a faraway dream that you can never reach.And when you wake you know it WAS there but its gone.Was it there?Or was it just mist & air in the depths of unconciousness?And was it worth it?A small pleasure, a small sin, for a lifetime of pain?A lifetime of rain..
