today is a celebration, one whole year!
of this my blogging life.
i set out to find lost keys, to unlock parts of me
to find again my creative self
such twisting & turning steps i have climbed
yet at every turn found new treasures waiting
i have enjoyed my journey & learnt so much

and im standing here, one year on
feeling on top of this beautiful world
so i raise my glass and say thank you
for stepping with me along the way
for giving me courage & strength
& friendship
