Not announced in a big fanfare, but gently walking alongside, and guiding and understanding and helping to change direction or see more clearly. The depiction above in a stained glass window speaks of theContinue reading “Messengers of light..”

The hill is Roseberry Topping, in the Cleveland hills. A unique hill in a landscape of much variation….dependent on the underlying rocks and their variation of weathering.
