This is a book that asks you to pause and ponder. It's a miscellany of musings, ranging from the serious to the whimsical and the spiritual to the serendipitous. They are slices of life, reflections on faith, educational commentary, poetic excursions, travel vignettes - a personal licence to wade warmly into the world of words. This book is a celebration of the joys of observation entwined in the words of a woman who is trying, somehow, to wise up.

Blessed interweaves past and present to create a potpourri of essays that are part memoir, part meditation, celebrating a life full of little asides of joy and small wonders.

A life that is truly, blessed.
