about

A little bit about moi: I am a mom, a nana, a sister, a woman, a friend, a human being…a youth counsellor, Family Life Educator. I have been working in the helping profession for over 25 years and volunteered in various capacities from youths to seniors. Tournesol is my nom de plume for haiku and other Japanese form poetry here at Tournesoldansunjardin https://cheryllynnroberts.wordpress.com I hope you enjoy reading through my daily waka. I also have another blog “Stop the Stigma” where I may stand on my soapbox now and then and hope it will become a place to drop in and share or comment on issues important to you. In that vein this could be a great way to learn from each other. http://stigmahursteveryone.wordpress.com

      Ça m’a fait plaisir, cara. If I had not visited your blog (I don’t often lately) I would not have known. What a great idea. I always look forward to Sunday’s Haiku Horizon with one work prompts…so simple and yet motivating to write to almost immediately.

        I agree about Haiku Horizons – one of my favourite spots .. and so glad fate blessed us with this meeting 🙂 Unfortunately I’m visiting less and less lately, doing all I can just to keep my blog up and going to tell the truth, but one presumes that this too shall pass. Bon chance!

        Sometimes we need change in the midst of change…do what feels right, Cara, and be good to yourself. Let’s hope the weather gets warmer so you can get out and take photos more…you have such a good eye! x

        I think you’re right … staying in the house I “think” too much 😉 Thank you Chèrie!
