"Happiness is a byproduct ultimately of being in right relationship with your own soul” - James Hollis

Welcome to Episode #137: 

There are places in Italy that are so beautiful they make you want to weep. When life occasionally does not go to plan, sometimes you just need to throw the cards in the air and do something for yourself. When circumstance and fate isn’t favoured, here and there it is best to make a distinct move that alters everything. This is for those needing a permission slip.

Italy changes you, opens you and makes life colourful. Travel is a marvellous gift to the self especially when you feel stuck or frustrated or burnt out from being on the wheel of life. Today is for the ones who need a permission slip or a reminder for the journey ahead. I like this quote by Frances Mayes, “Why not, in middle age, remember Dante’s dilemma: What now to do in order to grow?” - A Place in the World.

Enjoy, Michelle x
