  • Sister on the Page

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on November 16, 2015November 16, 2015

    This morning I am feeling very quiet. The energy of the day feels heavy, hard and I think I would rather hide myself away. Go back to sleep, wake up in a happier place. There is …

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on November 15, 2015November 15, 2015

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on November 14, 2015

  • Learning to Be Gentle

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on November 13, 2015November 13, 2015

    Animals are amazing teachers. Whatever our thoughts, fears, hangups, demons are, they will magnify them. Push us to acknowledge our problems and (hopefully) let them go. Most of the time whether we are aware of the …

  • THROUGH MY LENS: Incognito

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on November 12, 2015November 12, 2015

  • THROUGH MY LENS: The Old Birch

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on November 11, 2015November 11, 2015

    At the back of the yard this big birch tree stands alone. It’s very messy, shedding branches large and small all the time. It’s rotting, dying unfortunately, from some disease or what may have been …
