Change of subject needed!

Why do people do this with rocks? Is this just a UK thing?

Where I'm at we don't get a lot of rocks. It's mostly sand.
Why would you make a garden of stacked rocks?

It's harder to love and create than hate and destroy. Love and creation takes more energy. Where hate and destruction can be done with a single word that can haunt you for a life time.

They do it all over Kellie, You find them at beaches, beauty spots, mountain tops, this one was in a cave. They seemed to start to appear about 10 years ago maybe.

Is it an alien conspiracy. 😀
Or a tiny army?

It's not something I've really seen before.

Never seen that before! But then i don't get out much. There's some serious effort there.

I feel like the intersection of dark and light. I have a dark soul residing in me but an intense draw to the powers of good. All around I feel the constant battle between darkness and light.

I've seen them all over northumberland and scotland. usually near a pebble beach hence the stones. There is a large pebble beach behind me in this image.

Might head out somewhere for a mini adventure tomorrow.

Stone stacking, or rock balancing, is a meditative practice that has become a creative art form. On the meditative side, it involves finding the center of gravity of each of a wide variety of stones, then balancing them atop one another, sometimes precariously. This is the case when large stones are balanced on smaller ones. It requires a lot of focus, and sometimes multiple people.

If the stones just gradually get smaller from bottom to top, it is likely an art exhibit. That cave is clearly done for art based on the number, general size, shape, and colors of the stones used.

Not art, at least not by a single artist. They start off small and people start adding their own piles and they gradually spread out and get bigger. there is another cave a bit further on that only had a few piles, If I went back again it would probably have more. It's like the top of mountain fells in the UK where people always place a stone on the top of the mountain cairn it's like a signature I suppose to say I was there.

I do like your rock balancing theory though. Sounds like that could be the origin of it.

Hey you! I've just stuck a welcome note for you on Kellie's blog! Thanks for stopping by!

You don't have to thank me, Kellie has been very supportive to me also, it's a two way street. She has a very kind heart, as I'm sure you know!

I hear you are taking Kellie shopping on Wednesday for a girls day out! She is so looking forward to it and I can't blame her!

Thank you for being supportive to her. It must have been shock news but you are dealing with it amazingly well. Shows what sort of person you are. Feel free to message me anytime. I'm still finding my way in life really but if I can help in anyway let me know 😀

Oh, and you can call me Sarah! Stottie Girl is a bit of a mouthfull.

Hmmmm grey and miserable and cold today. I think that has put paid to my mini adventure plans for today but I'm off tomorrow too so hopefully I'll get another bite at it.

Off to Ikea instead to get some inspiration for my new kitchen. I need to get a design finalised before I move in as I will need the sparky to move the cooker point and sockets etc pretty much straight away.

Ikea is pretty cheap nasty for most stuff but they do have a good kitchen section.

I get lost in the Ikea kitchen area. The cook ware is pretty good. I have several pieces

I think I need to take some more selfies, I can't seem to find a new one that doesn't have me pulling a weird stupid face!

Smiling is better than not smiling, usually!
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.
