Gratitude moment. I received unexpected dividends from and investment today. This quart jar of Nettle Infusion pictured here just set to steep is the image that represents this abundance.

...who within 3 sentences was sharing his Dreadlocks. Off came the signature hat! Laughs were shared, we were off to a great start.
The topic of Stinging Nettle was discussed. He had just planted some and shared with excitement. I had not had an opportunity to plant any on our homestead yet. The offer to send me some was made, and I accepted.
Since his plants were just babies, I sent him home with a pound of dried Stinging Nettle that I had purchased. To provide him with the material to enjoy her benefits now.
I am honestly admitting I have been neglecting to include this plant friend of mine in my own life for too long now.
Jumping to yesterday...

The Unexpected Dividend...

With this quart jar of amber goodness I have taken the first step in a journey forward... Beginning again. With two friends beside me, Stinging Nettle and
This is my unexpected dividend. This is one of those moments that makes me know I am truly on the right path.
Thank you
I am off to a great start with a strong and smiling stride. May my steps dance me through the wilds of a beautiful adventure.
