My bond with the parental home in the Netherlands, the element of Earth, was incomplete and not harmonious. choosing my own path was difficult and for a long time I kept reaching back, in my thoughts and emotions to the past and I was unable to focus on the present and the road that lies ahead of me.
For many years I worked as a florist, a wealth of flowers around me, connection with scents … then I worked in care and every scent I perceived connects me with feelings and past.
I had connection with emotions and scents..
But what connects me with scent now that I have immigrated and live in beautiful Slovenia?
It continued to haunt me and it was a search for my true self .
With every walk I perceived new scents, the scents of nature, after a rain shower, the lichens, the freshly mown grass.
For me, the soothing elements of nature that I have around me every day and that I can enjoy to the fullest. Yes, I am grateful for this, that this has been given to me.
I found out that scents have an unconscious effect on my mood and that I connected to peace and confidence.
And now For more than 2 years I’ve been walking in my garden, growing flowers but also letting a lot of it grow by itself through seeds that the birds take with them. I realized again , scents and colors are extremely important elements for me . I am calmed by the scents of lavender , chamomile and the roses give me the warmth in my heart . Colors make me happy and it touches sensitivities deep in my heart. When I paint I see the colors of the flowers, the beautiful sunrisings, the green diversiti, and the colors in the authum and i think every moment of the scents that surround me and warm my heart. There have been many beautiful moments in my garden and if I was restless due to all kinds of circumstances, yes then I am there and connect with mother nature and the scents, confidence and tranquility.
The scents help me to let go of the thoughts and memories of the past and to take responsibility for who I am and what I want.
And this transformation of past and present leads me further towards the fulfillment of my spiritual path
I open my heart in full acceptance of Life as it comes and as it goes and the deeper we go within to discover who we are and what we want, the further we can go out to find ways to to realize dreams and ideals. Think of your lungs, they contract and they expand,
they receive and they give, so it is now.. i receive inspiration trough my memories and i give now all my passion to realize my dreams.
Wheter the pearls you are looking for symbolizing hope, inspiration or passion, it is up to you to go out and try to find it . this means not only being open for different experiences, but also looking for different ways yourself.
And now this season I come across that plant that I also had in my garden last year.
Every time I stood there I had to sniff the scent, my mind became clear and my soul expanded and I was amazed how many bees and butterflies are on these flowers. It is not for nothing that it is a wonderfully fragrant plant because it was richly visited. By studying this plant I found out what it was and by reading what it can mean for us as humans ….
Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis)
I would like to tell you what the Hyssop brought to me …..

Let me be an inspiration to your change of live
