I just wanted to say that I am from the UK and we definitely don't drop the "H" in chamomile. I've never seen it written without apart from by a London company who makes bedding.
I so much appreciate you letting me know this! When I was in London years ago, it was spelled Camomile in an apothecary, and also when I look to my old English books, it is spelled without the H. But your experience makes me realize this was a long time ago, and no longer current.
Thank you as always. I am so glad the funk did not keep you down very long. As a wise woman and Mother, we know that our spirits will not keep us from moving forward especially in this time of transformation for this country. Our energy must be sustained. It will be renewed constantly by the photosynthesis of our elements in our beings. Bless you!
Some years ago I had a little garden spot at a community garden. One day while I was gardening a scent came through. It was so beautiful that decided to follow where the scent was coming from. Another gardener had a whole patch of chamomile. I was transfixed. So many other magical things happened at this garden but this one moment I will not forget.
I love reading your love letters 🥰

Transfixed. A great description of how this scent makes you feel, thank you for sharing that memory!
Beautiful images and written imagery, as always :) My dear Ruby's first bath as a newborn was in chamomile tea.
Awe I love hearing that about Ruby! Thanks for reading, dear friend!
The Soul cannot be held back
by any imaginary boundary drawn against it;
not by mountain ranges,
not by rivers,
nor by human scorn.
The Soul, goes everywhere,
like an old woman in her right mind,
going anywhere she wishes,
saying whatever she wants,
bending to mend whatever is within her reach.
Wherever she goes, the Soul brings new life.
