Maybe this is why people move and hope it will change everything.

I am writing this down and hanging it on the wall ❤️

that's so beautiful :)!

Margaret Moore: What a wonderful idea, I love it. Greetings from Southern Portugal :)

You are so sweet mam

YES! Thanks to be like this. I also feel like people needs this more than enything :')

I love you.

You are a beautiful soul. X

You are an inspiration!

You are an inspiration for both young and old. May you continue to be creative for a long time.

Barbara, you genuinely seem like a really cool lady. I'd love to one day see your watercolors.

I completely agree! We see these beautiful, peaceful and perfect looking videos and sometimes forget they are curated to be this way. We can still strive to find peace and calm in our everyday life but it’s not always reality ❤️

@@lauraelisee I love your comment. My husband and I live in a small house that used to be surrounded by farm land. Now, 27 years later, the land has sold and many homes are going up around us. But, we can still sit on our back patio, relax, and watch the sunset!

Mood. Thanks for saying this too

True

She is so honest ❤️

Do you have a channel?

Oh! Your comment got me very excited. I hope you do get to breed Valais black nose sheep!! They are so darn cute. Since I saw them in Europe I gave been enamored with them. Good luck!!!

You have a site I wanna buy a rug from you when you start?

Do you slaughter and eat your animals that live with you?

You have a life I aspire to have! Enjoy it 😍🙏🏼

So cool!

I would be thrilled if I found one of your pieces

@@samb5208

Of course that is kindness and must surely bring joy..I wonder if people just look at them or tuck one away and maybe feel a little guilty. The origami needs a tiny sign around their necks saying "take me" ha ha..thats a lovely idea.😊👍🤗

@@jennyc5132 haha that would be so cute! Definitely don't feel guilty

Nossa que lindo! Realmente é isso...somos fortes, tratamento com gentileza as pessoas. mesmo em momentos difíceis.

You are that one special person. Thank you for what you do. While I don't know you specifically, I've known a couple of people who share that same goal like you, and you are very much appreciated.

That's is much.. in fact is all what is needed ;-) kind regards

That helps. I know as I was a student and there were not so nice receptionists. So your attitude must be refreshing to them! Student daily live can get tough sometimes, so surely they'll appreciate it ^^

Aroha, you have one of the most important jobs on the planet!!!! You may not realize it, but your presence is making a difference to the kid you interact with, and you can never know the ripple affect you will have. You may never know of the off comments that may make a positive difference in ones life. I think you give so much more than you know.

A smile costs nothing but can mean so much to the recipient ...well done you..greetings from Western Australia 🤗🥰😊😊😊😊🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘

JuAaa Asa a sea tfopzzz S I

Maybe she is a starseed :)

What is a changeling or starseed?

@@jirianbowman762 are we speaking English ???

I believe it’s different species/races from dungeons and dragons.

Oh! I’m so glad to hear it helps! My father has insomnia issues and I have had phases in my life where it affects me, it is so hard to deal with! Makes me happy to know these videos help you out a bit. You inspire me to make a nighttime video. Sending good wishes 🤍

I identify with you Mariam, right now it’s New Year’s day 2023 , at 3:25 am and im watching Paola. Because she calms my mind. I love watching her. She makes me think of the beauty in our world. ❤

Very wise philosophy:)

This is a wonderful way of thinking and similar to something my mothers says

Me too :-) I agree !

Same here! I know there aer many of us. But there are also people who think this is dumb. Stay cool and determined to be like this. More poeple than less will appreciate it, I'm sure! At least when I was bullied in high school, I sure needed patient people, so I know...

This brought tears to my eyes. ❤️❤️ those children are lucky to have you, as you are to have them

Oh thank you for your lovely comment! So wonderful to read how you care for your students, makes my heart so happy 🤍 I’m glad the videos help with dealing with troubling times, that is my goal - I realized that if I was feeling a need to escape into a slower meditative world now and then, others may need to as well. Especially now. Sending you love and light ✨

❤️

Nothing beats a home cooked meal made with love❤

That's such a lovely thing you do.

wow!! i’m sure they really appreciate that after a long day of work and sitting in traffic

This is beautiful!

👏👏👏 indeed, thank you, that is exactly how I feel ❤️ best

Christina, that's so true.

Wow love it..copy paste..

Well done you. Have a great day😊⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘

Wow. Didn't you get attached to them and not want to give them up? Did you adopt any?

@@kimalonzo3363 yes, we got so attached; and grieved. Usually would say goodbye in private before handing them over; emotionally too intense. Adopted the first to come into our home.

how do you find them?

@@kadifekoyuncu9880 our state department of children and families.

Same here. Greetings from Germany

I agree. I only limit my news intake, to know what's going on, but then I just turn everything off. Honestly don't miss it. Once I know what's needed, the rest is just over talking that just gives me anxiety, stress, delusion and leaves me empty. Prefer to choose when to turn on tv/radio and what to see, rather than having them on all day and passively take whatever they show/play.

I am going to take this as advice ❤

Same here.. ❤️

I stopped watching movies, tv and listening to trash music. I feel so much lighter.

Debbie Belian that is such a wonderful thing to do, may you have many blessings for your kindness. love from Ireland

That amazing well done ur very kind🙏

❤️❤️❤️

God Bless you Debbie, and may he bless your sewing hands.😊💐

That is lovely ❤️ We need more people like you in this world 🤗

Doesnt Paola have the most magnificent hair? Have a happy day🤗😊🌼

Yesss absolutely x

Liza, If I may, comment to give you optimism. Search GESARA/NESARA . You will find what is coming regarding income to make things easier on people, including you.

Hi Liza I think we all go through the married, kids, work, house, possessions etc road in life. We get bogged down working for what we think we must have but what we cant afford to keep because????? Who knows, we all have our reasons. But life is what you make of it. When you look around you, you will see people of all ages dying young, being depressed, getting divorced because we end up wanting different things in life maybe. Material possessions mean naught at the end of the day especially if you arent enjoying them. Its a vicious circle, you want more so you have to work more but then you dont get to enjoy it because you have more debts etc.... If you are able to live simply, try to find a job you might like. Baby steps!!!! I have done nursing, child care, office work etc etc but my favourite job which didnt pay much was tying up vines in a vinyard..music on my headphones ( I didnt do fancy ipod stuff), in my wet weather gear with eagles souring above me..cant get better than that. Now Im on a disability pension and have never been happier, although I have Crohns, Fibromyalgia, Lupus and get DVT's and the odd pulmonary embolism...my life is filled with art and whatever I can manage in my days. I am 68 have been married twice have 2 gorgeous kids married and living happily elsewhere (lost my 1st), 4 adorable growing up too fast grandies and we have just sold our house (whenever we've had a house we struggled with debt and worked at jobs we hated) and so now we rent. We have money in the bank for the first time ever, if something breaks down we call the agent to fix it and we dont have to foot the bill!!!🤗🤗🤗🤭🤭..we live in a pretty little town full of friendly people instead of owning a house in a place we can afford but dont like. I have personally never seen a downside to renting, (I guess) if you dont like the environment or neighbours you can move, although that is getting more difficult now rentals are harder to come by, but we are in Western Australia. But it took me a while to convince my new ex city boy hubby (now of 17 years) that owning a roof over your head is not the be all and end all in life, nor having fancy cars and lots of clothes, makeup, jewellery big TV, latest phones etc etc all of these things will keep you poor, which all make for arguements and a miserable life. The goal "which people tell us we must have of making big $$$ before retiring is a myth."..whatever you are aiming for is unattainable, because the goal posts keep moving, you just have to consider your options and go for what you want while you are able to do so because life throws up some mega hurdles sometimes!!!...Sell off what you can, when you can, find a simple but nice place to live buy (if thats your thing) or rent. Do a little art every day even if its doodling in a journal. Set small goals that dont equate to money and move forward as you can. If you have family support or a spouse who agrees with your way forward then go for it. I wish you luck. If you follow this delightful young lady she speaks from the heart and makes sense. Yes she has another life but what she does here is well worth watching and following. Another lady I follow is the 'Unexpected Gypsy' she has done and is doing what I am talking to you about, what I am now doing too. Its not all milk and honey, life rarely is but it can be good mo mater how muchmoney we have in the bank or where we live. Good luck. You can tell me this is all nonsence or I am happy to chat. Have a lovely day no matter where you are, how old you are etc etc etc🤗😊🥰🎨⚘⚘⚘⚘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘

that’s a very kind way to utilize your religion for others! 💗 sometimes i feel like far too many people think of religion too much in a “what can it do for ME” manner

Oh wow, I also moved to a small town in rural Australia with 2 of my children nearly 3 years ago and watching these videos has helped me a lot

Same here, small town in rural Australia, same situation! Very grateful for her videos

This is my wish for the past 5-6 years, but not my husband's, so we are still living in greater Sydney area. We definitely changed over our 32 years of marriage and we compromise with each other. Will see if we would end up living in rural Australia... maybe after we retired 😏

Hi from Western Australia Kaya Doll Im with you. You can read my reply above to Liza B to see where I am at. Enjoy your days🦘⚘🎨🥰

Lovely. Just lovely ❤️

I can understand this🍁🍂

There's nothing more important that you could be doing. It's too bad most people don't realize that. 🤗

It's the little things...

those who impact the world in small, gentle, beautiful ways are far more valuable than those who impact the world in big, harmful ones 💗✨ i believe our small, mindful actions as everyday people are what truly make up our world

So true she has a peaceful voice. Im soooo loud, and i have a monster voice, she calms me down.

Thank you for your wonderful content 😍

I enjoy taking cuttings from my beautiful houseplants and repotting them growing them a little then gifting them to friends sharing the beauty and gift of nature. And tell them when it gets big enough do the same and pass it on. 💚🌱❤️

I have enjoyed your channel immensely. I wish I could relate to you artist to artist; but, instead I have to relate to you old soul to old soul and introvert to introvert. You have a beautiful idea of an idealized life. I am learning to be more gentle from my rescue cat who is the most wonderful and gentle spirit I have ever known (he has been through so much and I enjoy giving him a life he did not previously know). Lately, I share joy by being completely politically neutral in all my human interactions :).

I would love to hear more about how you balance the busy life you have mentioned with more quiet moments as the ones you show us, how do you find the way to balance your time, your energy, how do you make space inside and out for what is important. Do you travel far for work? Do you work in a city? Many times we think of high ideals while building our lives, but it is in the small daily details and moment to moment choices that are days go by, and it can be a challenge to be mindful, and nurture our soul. I am passionate about how to be able to live with soul in our modern day lives, without necessarily being always able to get away from it, as most of us cannot....thank you 🌷

Honeybees bring me joy!! As you all know they are having a really hard time. I bring people joy by being empathetic and compassionate towards people . I continuously make an effort to not pass judgement on others .

I do that too sometimes, I'm always scared of slunding awkward, but in general they appreciate it and puts a smile on their face 🙂

Aww how lovely xx

Sally, i was a hospice volunteer years ago. Quick question: are you still able to visit patients face to face during this pandemic? Thanks. (isabella:-)

@@mysticalheart8107 Hi ... I Work For The Hospice in their Charity Retail...We have visits to The Hospice But never Direct Contact... Even more So during this Dreadful Pandemic...I Love my job it is the most Rewarding thing anyone can ever do 💛🕯💛

THATS a wonderful thing to do 💗

@@chelannas 💛🤗

Wonderful ❤️

Oh!! My heart, I can relate to school stress. I still struggle with anxiety, but working with my hands and listening to what I need helps so much. Wishing you the best, I know you will find your way. ❤️

Aww I love that!

I have been planning to learn! I am working on a simple pine needle basket I will include in a video sometime - but I am only a beginner, and am intrigued by willows! I will continue learning and hopefully find a class to take ❤️ thank you for the suggestion!

@@TheCottageFairy basket weaving is quite similar regardless of the material used. I adore your foraging basket it looks amazingly similar to my two Adirondack Pack Baskets. Many tutorials are on RU-vid if you type in Adirondack Pack Basket and they do come in a variety of shapes and sizes. If I may suggest? In your very dry climate I fear that your foraging basket will dry out and become brittle therefore it would be a good idea to treat it a couple of times each year. Dipping the basket into the nearby lake and allowing it to become saturated will do it some good. However a light coating of oil will do well too. Varnish, polyurethane and shellac will cause it to become brittle as well. If it was my decision to make I would treat it with a food grade mineral oil which is also used to treat wooden cutting boards. I would love to know where you obtained that basket!
