A Love Letter?
New relationships stimulate and inspire us and can drive us to natural highs beyond anything else life has to offer. Sometimes we want to share the intensity of these feelings, the joy and sheer delight that we are feeling and a beautifully crafted Love Letter is a great way to do this. Sharing your feelings for a new love or restating your love for an existing one, in your own words, that I help you to craft into the form you want, is a special undertaking. I have done this many times and often people who, at the beginning, have no confidence in their ability to express themselves in writing are amazed at what they can really say.
An Artefact
If you want your Letter as a written artefact I provide beautiful scripting on parchment or linen papers or whatever you choose. This is a completely confidential experience. Each Love Letter is a custom undertaking and is a creative, sometimes emotional and always fulfilling event.
Valentine’s Day
The sooner you have decided that a hand written Love Letter is the only gift worthy of your Lover please book it in, obviously it is a busy time!
Separation/Divorce
Some people like to mark this critical life event with some form of gathering or acknowledgement process. This can help us have a stronger sense of our new way of living and how we can embrace a new chapter in our story. Clarifying your thoughts and expressing them in a speech or a letter or in a quiet conversation can help everyone to understand our needs and how they can best support us as our life takes new form.
Reunification
Couples who reunify sometimes gather their families and friends together to share the news and to mark the beginning of a new chapter in their relationship.
Coming Out
A major life event that deserves whatever level of acknowledgement or celebration you desire. A speech can help everyone understand how you would like things to be in your relationships with them from now on.
Milestone Birthdays
Big ones, middle ones, any birthday at all if you are a Leo! Deliver your own fabulous speech, acknowledging the love and support of family and friends and how much you appreciate them.
A Wordsmith for Endings - writing a satisfying and complete eulogy can bring great peace to the author and mourners alike.
Eulogies are difficult to write. You have about 12 minutes usually in a funeral service to share the story and the memories of the life of the person you have loved, and will miss, very much. There is a lot to say, a story to tell, memories to share and a farewell to be said.
You want to honour the spirit and the life of the soul who has passed on and, depending upon the circumstances of their passing, or even the state of your relationship with them at the time, writing this piece of history can be challenging and complex.
I have been deeply privileged to assist many people to honour their deceased, young or old, suddenly or with notice, from illness or accident. I will give priority to your need, privacy to your thoughts and be available to work with you after hours to complete this vital part of life’s rituals.
Words are very, very powerful and we are wise to use them well.
Writing as a form of expressing our deepest selves can really help all of us at particular times in our lives. The written word, often spoken aloud, is also a vital part of some of our most important rituals – weddings, funerals, christenings, birthdays, graduations and all the many special occasions that mark out our lives and create long lasting memories and milestones.
