The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 213

Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm, gardens and RetrEat centre on day 8 of our new lock down. It is another beautiful, mild morning here this morning. The silence is beautiful only to be broken intermittently by the rutting stag telling us it is his time and that’s for sure. It is amazing how natures clock works for all animals and I believe it is fantastic how you cannot control them – just leave it be. They are happy and happiness only comes to us in the present moment. If you are happy now then there is nothing else to accomplish and if you dare wonder if you will be happy tomorrow or in the next five minutes from now you will lose the now and forget to be happy now. All our planning, scheming and dreaming takes away from the now and your present happiness. So for today, focus on the now happiness and be still. Be who you are meant to be and don’t forget to pray and send healing and blessings to each other and wear your smile.
