Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ More than likely as you read this post… I will be on the road to my annual women’s retreat. Surprisingly this will mark the 12th year attending this particular retreat. My how the years go by. There are many reasons why I plan these retreat days. It’s a time of quiet contemplation, and getting refreshed ~ physically, mentally, and spiritually. Of course the most important one being the experience of adventure. Because, to me the greatest adventure in life is the adventure of going within. This weekend away allows me the luxury, and opportunity to return back to the task at hand and meet my insides again….sigh… Well….so how was your January? One month down, and eleven to go until another year has passed. Being that I’m in the … Continue reading

(grin) Well, okay I’ve got to share an aha moment I recently had. L.I.F.E. and all that it brings is an exciting adventure. I know that might sound a little sweet, and corny…but oh well. It doesn’t matter if we haven’t gone on a luxurious vacation recently… Maybe it’s been years. ( or never) It might even be that we have been thinking that NOTHING … Continue reading
