The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 373

Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm, gardens and RetrEat centre on day 83 of our latest lock down. This morning as I ambled my way through the fields at Ballinwillin House I faced towards the impressive block of mountains known at the Galtees. This morning they were wreathed in a blue tuscan light and with distance they seem like they are huge dark ships on a distant voyage. From time to time and as often as I can I love to walk up into these vast, cold structures that are cluttered with green pines that shelter wild birds and deer. This whole area is marked by millions of years of wind and rain. When you are here you feel like you know the wind for millions of years even before a human face ever felt it. When I walk these lands I feel we are never as alone as it might seem. I feel an energy that promises initiative and creativity. As I walk here this morning I feel a warmth of place that wraps around me like a cloak to mind me for my life. Continue to pray, bless and power healing and continue to wear your Tuesday smile.
