Every January, Satya and Kaspa of Writing Our Way Home challenge us to write small stones thoughout the month. As Satya (Fiona) says ‘This simple mindful writing exercise can be life-changing.’
To write a small stone we simply pause, open our senses & record what we see, hear, taste, smell or touch.
Here is my first small stone for 2013:
Pink ink blink wink think
Picture scripture black on white
Squat splot blot hot shot

I’m enjoying finding out how your brain works on an instinctive level Polly. Intriguing.

Some of these small stones are quite naughty ~ they have a little life all of their own
