While I was - of course - working this week and mostly focused on that, I did try spending my time off doing some activities that bring me joy and help keep winter fun and exciting even when the cold keeps me indoors (and with a cold this week, sadly). Perhaps some of these pastimes inspire you to pursue your interests to shake things up a bit now and then and add some new things to your day. Wishing you the very best ❤this week I am hand-signing my art prints on Etsy as a big thank you for all the support. Much appreciated, take care. PS: sorry for the issues with closed captions, RUclips was super buggy this morning and I was having trouble! I will perfect it once I am able.
Thank you Paola for another lovely video. I adore your little side comments about whimsical and childlike things. There’s much to learn from children in how they live that is wise for adults to pick up on. Thank you for your Etsy shop and I’m excited because my order from you has shipped yay! Also I wanted to ask could I send you a gift? I’ve been holding on to it for a while and would like to give it to you soon. Let me know when you get the chance😉
I wholeheartedly share your love of miniatures! I still have my grandmother's miniature "ice cream shop", complete with tiny cones, straws, and napkins. It is over 60 years old, and when my granddaughters visited this Christmas, I was just as excited as them as we enjoyed real ice cream in little cones no bigger than a thumbnail. 💜
I'm 15 years old boy and I suffer from social anxiety and OCD . I told my parents about my mental health many times but they don't take it that seriously . School feels like hell And also I live in a very extroverted society where my own people don't understand my feelings , Watching these kind of videos provide me some peace. Thank you very much for creating this type of peaceful masterpiece ❤️ (Sorry for my grammar )
hi i'm 17y.o and i understand you struggle, because i also feel misunderstood especially at school with all extrowerted society and having anxiety, i just want to say ur not alone and ill hope u find peace in ur life u got this bro💓
Hi Paola, thankyou for another lovely and thought provoking video. I just wanted to ask about your book which ordered, I haven’t received my copy, should I be worried?! I live in the UK.
Thank you, Katie, I wanted to say the same thing, childlike is what these projects are, not childish. We adults need to try and reclaim our inner child, and not try to hide it. Our hostess is showing us one path to take to allow our inner child to thrive.
Putting water on pebbles is almost like a metaphor for life. The more we surround ourselves with the people and things that nourish us-- we too can transform into beautiful colors.
Oh, I am so glad to have found this channel. It gives me so much joy, stillness and balance in a life which can be hectic, face-paced and loud. 💚 Wish you all the best. 🍀
You are a RAY of sunshine on a rainy day... An illuminating LIGHT in the darkness.... Calmness on a stormy Sea... Your inward beauty CALMS those, more than you know... Stay the way you are...for you are STRONG and a light to others...
It’s so easy to be drawn into rabbit holes of negativity on social media, be it RUclips or elsewhere, but your channel is an oasis of calm. For that, I thank you. I hope you keep doing what you’re doing, sharing your thoughts and little pearls of wisdom, in this little space that you’ve created. There are those who value what you do, as is shown by the many messages of support and appreciation you receive here on your channel. Take care 🙂
No pressure. ..it's much better to enjoy doing a video when you are wanting to and not by a schedule. It makes it spontaneous and joyful and for us an unexpected joy to see a video from you. Free spirited 😉💖
When I lived in China, older gentlemen would go to the park with a bucket of water and a huge brush and paint Chinese characters on the sidewalk. It was remarkable!!!!
You look so lovely in your skirt and sweater out in the snow- but equally, I wish you could be in snow pants, snow boots and a large winter jacket likely being much more warm and comfortable !! ❤ Thank you for the video and inspiration.
I saw your post on Joanna’s 4 million. And I cried! You are a special young lady, you are my bonus granddaughter, I cherish these times. Keep your sweet light bright.
In a world where it seems that there is less and less options for us to watch together as a family, I thank you for making such beautiful and appropriate videos that my children and I can enjoy.
Your videos give me such peace, especially your voice tones are so calming. Being on earth and having the trials of health can become overwhelming. Peace cleanses my soul and makes my world a quieter place where I can find peace and ways to fill my life with color and fiber. I look forward to hearing from you. You bring me such joy. Thank you for sharing with us.
@@roksannastephens4375 My heart 💜 truly reaches out to yours. I am precisely at the halfway mark of my cancer recovery (different location), trying to reach that coveted “5 year mark.” I will add you to my nightly prayer list, Roksanna, for a full and complete recovery and for all your health care providers. We can been changed by this unexpected experience, haven’t we? 🤗🙏🏻❤️🩹 Blessings and peace on your journey. 🕊️
I am a fifteen-year-old girl, and I am also homeschooled, I love these kinds of videos and I just wanted to say that you're so kindred-spirited, you remind me of a character from Anne of Green Gables.
Its ok...OK... To pull back n Rest n Relax.... Do Not expect OR ALLOW others to expect To Much from Yourself.... 💝 We Will Love whatever n whenever You So Graciously Share Your Beautifull Life With Us 💖
Your comment about your crafting of late, reminded me of the Picasso quote: “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.” Every adult must remember to play.
My first thought after thinking that the snow in the woods is so beautiful is that you need a warm coat, hat and scarf! Your mom would agree with me. Take care.
❤ed the story of the girl and the boy hummingbird. I have a 3 year old granddaughter to make me feel delight in the simple things of life again. She is a blessing to me..
I’m a rock collector. I have bowls of them in my house. I can often be found with a dish of water and my rocks. The beauty is uncovered in water. 😊 It’s very grounding for me.
I am a rock collector too. So much so, that when we remodelled our garden we created a lovely path of Scottish beach pebbles. Whenever it rains, as it often does in England, I so enjoy how the water transforms the colours and makes the path glisten like a river!
I'm first to comment . There's always a special sense of comfort and serenity in each one of your videos Paola❤ Everything is covered in snow today in my country too (Algeria)🇩🇿🇩🇿
I took up quilting when I retired. I'd always loved taking photos. I wanted to create something original in colors. Quilting and playing with fabric colors and designs brings me joy and peace. I also love to read.
Paolo, your lifestyle is very inspiring. I recently retired after 34 years in my profession and this time has allowed me for the first time to listen to myself. I love, love watercolor and watching you paint inspires me and I also do this to get out of my own head and reduce my anxiety. When we find the flow in life it brings us true happiness. Thank you for sharing your life.
I needed that. I just had a hurtful, sad and depressing break up. I always feel so reminded to be myself thru your videos and reminded that there is a world out there for me to explore and continue to work I. Projects that give me peace. Feel better
I'm recovering from a cold as well and my foggy head absolutely loved listening to that legend. Over the past 2 years of watching your videos, I noticed how I slowly got back the child in me as well. I read kind books and draw fairy bunnies this month) Thank you, Paola.
Deep snow keeps you in, not a time to be active, so you are making your home cozier and lovelier, and communicating with yourself. It's like sleeping and dreaming in the night. Please take good care, and hope you get better soon. I caught a cold recently, too. Extra time not doing much but simply relaxing was unexpectedly healing and adjusting to be more optimum. Thank you as always!
It's amazing how a few bits of moss, small twigs and a pinch of clay can turn out to be a beautiful miniature. You are so talented and creative. Those carved wooden accents will look so pretty on the wooden wildow frames or as wall decor. You must take care yourself first. We will be here whenever you are able to share part of your day with us.
I am so happy to have been led to your channel. While I lead a totally different lifestyle than you I find peace and comfort in sharing your life with you. I saw a quote yesterday that seemed to go with your topic today...It read, Life is amazing and then it is awful and then it's amazing again. And in between the amazing and the awful it's ordinary, mundane and routine. Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful and relax and exhale during the ordinary and mundane. That's just living, heartbreaking, soul healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life....and it is breathtakingly beautiful. L.R.Knost Thank you for sharing your life. gina
Why do I watch your content...?? Because it brings me back to me.. a pleasant reminder of who I truly am.. nothing broken, no one to compare to.. perfectly perfect in the being that I am... ❤❤❤ You, We, Me are perfect in conjecture with the amazing contrast of ourselves.. Thank you for inspirational content and please know you beautiful being of exactly who you are.❤❤❤
I will forever look at the hummingbird differently . I always sit on my porch in the summer & reading & they come to my flower beds ,now I cannot wait to summer time. Thank you for sharing ! Have a lovely week !
Thank You Paola.... I am an old simi-retired machinist. I work alone/quietly in my garage work shop. I have made friends with the local Blue Jays. I have cut a round 5" hole in my garage door so the Jays can come & go as they choose. I will leave a few raw whole unsalted peanuts out for the taking. The Jays will fly through the hole "steal" a peanut. Fly outside and bury it for later. Sometimes they will just sit near me and just eye me making this very low but elaborate chirping sound that is amazing . I think it is the way they communicate softly among themselves. So very comforting to have such a close trusted association with my free wild bird friends. TM
Whenever you make a video, we appreciate it. I, for one, don't expect them on any time schedule. It's nice when one appears. Thanks for your sweetness.
The snow in the forest on the trees is absolutely beautiful. I think the snow makes things look so peaceful. The cold makes me want to stay in & just nest. Take care sweet fairy 💚
I love watching you create things out of natural elements. I have a creative side, too, and watching others' creative processes mesmerizes and fascinates me. You make such beautiful things and it inspires me to want to create something of my own. I'll probably create a piece of jewelry this week. 🤗❤
I am 62, recently retired and live in France part time in Paris, part time in an old farm far away from the city. Despite this very different life from yours, part of me feels connected to what you are showing in your videos. Thanks so much for sharing.
You have such a lovely gift, in that you help me feel warm and loved. The world slows in a way that sharpens color and sound. Cottage Fairy is a perfect name for your channel 💕
Always a joy to watch your vlogs - no matter how short or long, or the topic(s). Very inspiring - I’m going to try making miniature dioramas to fill my time shortly after moving my mother and myself under one roof due to her dementia. I “retired “ early about two years ago to make more time to care for her. I believe only managing one household vs two will give me time to actually enjoy my retirement to a degree. Love your native story, and the hummingbird and sun figures to go with 🥰
@@mayracaceres3813 I had to ask Google to translate what you typed.... I understand and agree with you about the care she is giving her mother. Dios Te Bendiga a usted tambien🤗
Paola, querida, I double your age but we are kindred spirits in so many ways. My soul and inner child await anxiously for every you make a new video. Gracias hija! 🙏🇵🇷🐇🐀🐿️💐🍄🌴🐢
The natural wood stain reminds me of the tung oil my dad used many years ago. It was a very pale gold shade in the bottle but added no color to the wood, just made it look wet and gave it depth.
Thank you for another lovely vlog. Your voice is like a soothing balm to the weary soul. And as someone who works with adults who suffer from anxiety, I'm always referring my clients to your channel. Your voice and the beautiful messaging and visuals are just the "medicine" many folks today need. You have the gift of creativity and I appreciate you sharing your talents with us. Muchisimas gracias. 🙏🌈❤️
I love the beautiful wood carvings, and the way they come to life with the stain brushed on them. We all need to find our inner child, it nourshes and fills us with wonder. I am 66 years young, and also live a very quiet life, on my own with my black rescue greyhound Madge, only going out of the the house to walk her in nature, which is all around me. I love all crafts, and paint pottery, and love natural things that inspire me. The simple things in life are the best gifts I feel. Thank you for this lovely video. You are a truley beautiful young lady, both inside and out. Love, and cuddles and Blessings to you, from Devon. England. xxx
We all have a child inside of us. My inner child loves poetry, music and reading. If I do not give into the inner child every day, I feel deprived of inner happiness. I love the way your wood carvings look on the wall. It’s so pretty.
My eyes are full of tears from the story of the hummingbird and the flower… to be loved that much that one keeps searching for the other ❤ hummingbirds gathering nectar from flowers is fascinating to view and to have you hold that tangible bird while sharing a tale from your family history was beautiful… please 🙏🏻 share with us at your comfortable and well, happy place, Paola. It’s worth the wait and your whimsical views offer our community magic 🪄 I am feeling a bit challenged in this phase of recovery ❤️🩹 now that I am fortunate enough to have a part time job! Balancing my energy VS tasks that face me, both short & long term sometimes feel daunting and I try to resist fear. That will slow any progress and whimsy cannot be rushed… Thank you for a timely and caring video! I love 💕 seeing your animals and plants 🪴 and tea and crafts. Until next time, please know how much you are cared for. 🐾🐾🎨🐾🐾📚🪴🕊️
don't worry about not making "as many videos as usual"...one of the best parts of your videos is the honest pace to life they show. And that pace should take precedent over our entertainment. Just upload when you can, your videos are very appreciated.
That little creation was stunning, there’s nothing wrong in being childlike, it’s good to daydream and do things that make you happy. Beautiful story of the flower and hummingbird ❤
Just saw your message to four million people on Jonna Jinton's channel. So nice to see you there and hear what you had to say. She's amazing, isn't she? You are, too. ♥️
Another lovely video. Happy that you're feeling better. Love how the window looks with the decorative piece. Que linda esa historia folklore de Puerto Rico. 🌸🐦
Love your kaleidoscope!!! How lovely and very magical!!! You need to find one to carry in your purse so you can whip it in those odd or peaceful moments...you're so great at meeting those moments with joy...
I sometimes wish I could experience the mundane for a short while. I always love how you are so creative and make something so beautiful out of almost nothing. And thank you so much for sharing that beautiful story. I love humming birds and now that story gives me a new sense of them. Bless you dear Paola, you are so very wonderful.
Greetings Friend! Thank you so much for that lovely video! Yesterday, we had a beautiful snow storm here in the mountains and Valley of Western Massachusetts. My daughter and I have been wrestling with a cold too, but we looked outside and took a walk in the woods behind our house and like you, we tried to find the whimsy and magic of the forest as the snow was falling. It was magical! Over the years, we have truly enjoyed your short films and you have definitely planted your magical fairy seeds in and around us! Thank you so much, Paola for helping bring more joy into the world! You REALLY are a treasure! Heather, Camden, and Leslie (and Wiley too…our mischievous husky)
From your wondrous videos I’ve learned to cherish the magic of every type of weather from sunshine to rainy day, there all gifts that urge us to accept them for what they are. Thank you for embodying this ancient truth Paola😊
La leyenda era preciosa aunque se me antojó algo triste también. Adoraría que compartieras más con nosotros. Y por favor tómate el tiempo que necesites, que siempre te vamos a esperar con los brazos abiertos. Creo que has construido una comunidad super bonita y estoy segura de que todos tus seguidores van a preferir que estés bien a que subas más seguido. Un abrazo enorme, gracias por ser tan maravillosa 🌺
Hope you're feeling better already ❤. I really loved that story. You reminded me of a piece I wrote that is connected to the subject, it's called The Society Of The Individual, I'll share with you a small piece of it: "But they are actual facts that your existing is a miracle in itself. And not just that, do you know how many people you're made of? How many poets, painters, singers, writers, philosophers and thinkers? You are made of a society!"
You are the very definition of, Stop and smell the roses. I'm a negative person, but watching your videos over the years has a calming affect. Like Mister Roger's when I was a kid back in the 70s.
You Paola, are such a treasure of peacefulness....appreciate watching you, no matter when you post. Thank you for being such a gift to this crazy world.😍
While I was - of course - working this week and mostly focused on that, I did try spending my time off doing some activities that bring me joy and help keep winter fun and exciting even when the cold keeps me indoors (and with a cold this week, sadly). Perhaps some of these pastimes inspire you to pursue your interests to shake things up a bit now and then and add some new things to your day. Wishing you the very best ❤this week I am hand-signing my art prints on Etsy as a big thank you for all the support. Much appreciated, take care.
PS: sorry for the issues with closed captions, RUclips was super buggy this morning and I was having trouble! I will perfect it once I am able.
Eres un alma vieja. Con respeto 🙏
Thank you for your sweet and calming videos. I am always anticipating your next video and enjoying your point of view.

❤️ BEAUTIFUL
Your charming adventures and projects are not “childish“ they are wonderfully “childlike“
An astute observation, and something we should all learn from. ❤️
They are 'God-like". We are put here to explore and learn from all of creation, developing our own creativity to become more like our creator.
Like Picasso quoted,"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up"
Hi Paola, thankyou for another lovely and thought provoking video. I just wanted to ask about your book which ordered, I haven’t received my copy, should I be worried?! I live in the UK.
Thank you, Katie, I wanted to say the same thing, childlike is what these projects are, not childish. We adults need to try and reclaim our inner child, and not try to hide it. Our hostess is showing us one path to take to allow our inner child to thrive.
I don't think reclaiming a sense of wonder is childish. It makes life rich and meaningful.
I wholeheartedly agree! I hope I never lose my sense of curiosity & wonder, as then life would be dull & boring. ☺🧚♀🍄🌳🌠
Putting water on pebbles is almost like a metaphor for life. The more we surround ourselves with the people and things that nourish us-- we too can transform into beautiful colors.

I completely agree!
When I lived in China, older gentlemen would go to the park with a bucket of water and a huge brush and paint Chinese characters on the sidewalk. It was remarkable!!!!
I find when life is most mundane, slowing down, practicing gratitude and focusing on all the beauty around me brings me back to happiness. ❤❤❤
Yes, slowing down is the best stress relief. I find been in nature as the cure for some of my worries and love to share it with others.
You look so lovely in your skirt and sweater out in the snow- but equally, I wish you could be in snow pants, snow boots and a large winter jacket likely being much more warm and comfortable !! ❤ Thank you for the video and inspiration.
Hardly childish. You are childlike. Full of wonder and magic. Don’t change that, regardless of what anyone says.

Hello Carolyn how are you doing,
where are you from?
I am 62, recently retired and live in France part time in Paris, part time in an old farm far away from the city. Despite this very different life from yours, part of me feels connected to what you are showing in your videos. Thanks so much for sharing.
You have such a lovely gift, in that you help me feel warm and loved. The world slows in a way that sharpens color and sound. Cottage Fairy is a perfect name for your channel 💕
My favorite RUclips person just doing her things. Cozy mastery.
Always a joy to watch your vlogs - no matter how short or long, or the topic(s). Very inspiring - I’m going to try making miniature dioramas to fill my time shortly after moving my mother and myself under one roof due to her dementia. I “retired “ early about two years ago to make more time to care for her. I believe only managing one household vs two will give me time to actually enjoy my retirement to a degree. Love your native story, and the hummingbird and sun figures to go with 🥰
What a loving daughter you are. ❤️🩹🕊️🙏🏻
DIOS TE BENDIGA 🙏
@@mayracaceres3813 I had to ask Google to translate what you typed.... I understand and agree with you about the care she is giving her mother. Dios Te Bendiga a usted tambien🤗
@@rrhines3151 you’re so sweet. Thank you! 🥰
@@mayracaceres3813 Thank you 😊. He has been blessing me SO much during this housing transition, I am pinching myself to make sure it’s real☺️🙏
Paola, querida, I double your age but we are kindred spirits in so many ways. My soul and inner child await anxiously for every you make a new video. Gracias hija! 🙏🇵🇷🐇🐀🐿️💐🍄🌴🐢
The natural wood stain reminds me of the tung oil my dad used many years ago. It was a very pale gold shade in the bottle but added no color to the wood, just made it look wet and gave it depth.
My favorite little corner of RUclips. My ❤ is happy.
Hello Elizabeth how are you doing,
where are you from?
Thank you for another lovely vlog. Your voice is like a soothing balm to the weary soul. And as someone who works with adults who suffer from anxiety, I'm always referring my clients to your channel. Your voice and the beautiful messaging and visuals are just the "medicine" many folks today need. You have the gift of creativity and I appreciate you sharing your talents with us. Muchisimas gracias. 🙏🌈❤️
I love the beautiful wood carvings, and the way they come to life with the stain brushed on them. We all need to find our inner child, it nourshes and fills us with wonder. I am 66 years young, and also live a very quiet life, on my own with my black rescue greyhound Madge, only going out of the the house to walk her in nature, which is all around me. I love all crafts, and paint pottery, and love natural things that inspire me. The simple things in life are the best gifts I feel. Thank you for this lovely video. You are a truley beautiful young lady, both inside and out. Love, and cuddles and Blessings to you, from Devon. England. xxx
What a beautiful and emotional story about the hummingbird and the flower, my eyes teared while I was listening 🌺🐦❤️ Thank you for sharing with us 🙏🏼
You are giving me "The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse" chills... I love it :)
Those little pieces of woodwork are absolutely beautiful. What a lovely gift- both to create and receive!
Where can those be found?
Paola, just take care of yourself. We all enjoy whatever you're able to share with us.
What a beautifull miniature creation💚🍀
I'm learning to grow comfortable with routine and what my soul naturally wants, instead of trying to pressure myself to live how others tell me
You made it into Jonna's video! It was nice to see you in her video released today amongst all those people spreading a message to 4 million others...
We all have a child inside of us. My inner child loves poetry, music and reading. If I do not give into the inner child every day, I feel deprived of inner happiness. I love the way your wood carvings look on the wall. It’s so pretty.
My eyes are full of tears from the story of the hummingbird and the flower… to be loved that much that one keeps searching for the other ❤ hummingbirds gathering nectar from flowers is fascinating to view and to have you hold that tangible bird while sharing a tale from your family history was beautiful… please 🙏🏻 share with us at your comfortable and well, happy place, Paola. It’s worth the wait and your whimsical views offer our community magic 🪄 I am feeling a bit challenged in this phase of recovery ❤️🩹 now that I am fortunate enough to have a part time job! Balancing my energy VS tasks that face me, both short & long term sometimes feel daunting and I try to resist fear. That will slow any progress and whimsy cannot be rushed… Thank you for a timely and caring video! I love 💕 seeing your animals and plants 🪴 and tea and crafts. Until next time, please know how much you are cared for. 🐾🐾🎨🐾🐾📚🪴🕊️
So true for I share those feelings too
Miniature mushroom piece is so adorable!! 🍄 😊
Thank you so very much for sharing your experiences. Hope you fully recover. Take care of yourself and keep safe
The wood catvings are absolutely breathetaking
Hello!! Thank you for your beautiful videos ❤
don't worry about not making "as many videos as usual"...one of the best parts of your videos is the honest pace to life they show. And that pace should take precedent over our entertainment. Just upload when you can, your videos are very appreciated.
Preciosa la historia del colibrí y la flor. Gracias Paola 💙💚💛💜
Gracias Mercky 🙏🏻💙
“Imperfectly beautiful.” That’s lovely!
That little creation was stunning, there’s nothing wrong in being childlike, it’s good to daydream and do things that make you happy. Beautiful story of the flower and hummingbird ❤
Just saw your message to four million people on Jonna Jinton's channel. So nice to see you there and hear what you had to say. She's amazing, isn't she? You are, too. ♥️
Another lovely video. Happy that you're feeling better. Love how the window looks with the decorative piece. Que linda esa historia folklore de Puerto Rico. 🌸🐦
Love your kaleidoscope!!! How lovely and very magical!!! You need to find one to carry in your purse so you can whip it in those odd or peaceful moments...you're so great at meeting those moments with joy...
I sometimes wish I could experience the mundane for a short while. I always love how you are so creative and make something so beautiful out of almost nothing. And thank you so much for sharing that beautiful story. I love humming birds and now that story gives me a new sense of them. Bless you dear Paola, you are so very wonderful.
Greetings Friend!
Thank you so much for that lovely video! Yesterday, we had a beautiful snow storm here in the mountains and Valley of Western Massachusetts. My daughter and I have been wrestling with a cold too, but we looked outside and took a walk in the woods behind our house and like you, we tried to find the whimsy and magic of the forest as the snow was falling. It was magical! Over the years, we have truly enjoyed your short films and you have definitely planted your magical fairy seeds in and around us! Thank you so much, Paola for helping bring more joy into the world! You REALLY are a treasure!
Heather, Camden, and Leslie (and Wiley too…our mischievous husky)
From your wondrous videos I’ve learned to cherish the magic of every type of weather from sunshine to rainy day, there all gifts that urge us to accept them for what they are. Thank you for embodying this ancient truth Paola😊
Love your nature walks…stories told in your family are beautiful and love when you speak your rich language!🌺🌺🌺
Hello Glenda how are you doing,
where are you from?
This channel is my daily source of happiness
We do not expect you to do videos all of the time ! We will love them when we see them
La leyenda era preciosa aunque se me antojó algo triste también. Adoraría que compartieras más con nosotros. Y por favor tómate el tiempo que necesites, que siempre te vamos a esperar con los brazos abiertos. Creo que has construido una comunidad super bonita y estoy segura de que todos tus seguidores van a preferir que estés bien a que subas más seguido. Un abrazo enorme, gracias por ser tan maravillosa 🌺
“Sacred essence” is now my new favorite phrase.
Thank you for sharing that sweet Taino story. I am Puerto Rican myself, and this was my first time hearing it. Simply lovely! 🐦🌼
Oh, sweetheart, you are so gifted. Luke is a lucky man to share life with someone so enchanted.
Your channel is such a beautiful escape from an often chaotic world. Thank you for sharing your stories and inspiring me with your crafts, Paola! 💚
I love hearing stories from ancestors - thank you for sharing! Feel better! 😊❤️
Hope you're feeling better already ❤. I really loved that story.
You reminded me of a piece I wrote that is connected to the subject, it's called The Society Of The Individual, I'll share with you a small piece of it:
"But they are actual facts that your existing is a miracle in itself. And not just that, do you know how many people you're made of? How many poets, painters, singers, writers, philosophers and thinkers? You are made of a society!"
You are the very definition of, Stop and smell the roses. I'm a negative person, but watching your videos over the years has a calming affect. Like Mister Roger's when I was a kid back in the 70s.
Your journey has been amazing.
I found myself bursting into tears inextricably at the end of this video.
What a joy you are! Plus, your videos bring so much joy to us all! Thank you!! ❤️ 🌸🌼🌸❤️
Hello Donna how are you doing,
where are you from?
You Paola, are such a treasure of peacefulness....appreciate watching you, no matter when you post. Thank you for being such a gift to this crazy world.😍
