The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 787

Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm, Gardens and RetrEat centre. Forgive me if I refer too much to nature in my daily blogs and particularly so during the month of May. Our ancestors in their wisdom believed deeply that nature had a mind of its own and they believed that nature is wrapped in seamless prayer. Nature does not suffer the separation or distance which thought brings. It lives all the time in the midst of her own unity and I oftentimes think she sympathises with our distraction but when we turn to nature she knows full well how to calm our minds. When we trust ourselves into the silence and stillness of her warm embrace she is always there for us, always at home for us and in the same place. That is why there is great healing outside and in the wild of nature. When you immerse yourself in nature you bring your clay body back to its native realm and home where your heartbeat is in rhythm, with the divine you are in the middle of a great prayer. Today I will spend much time out there and we will all continue to pray, bless, power healing, peace and hope to all who need it and wear your Thursday smile.
