The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 252

Good morning and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm and gardens on day 32 of our new lock down. Sunday as you all know at this stage is a day of rest for The Mindful Farmer especially this afternoon when the main chores on the farm are done. The mornings are dark now and I cannot go into the gardens until day break and at that stage after my 5 minutes of meditation I open one of my prayer books on my Sunday morning page and there I have an amazing picture of a red breasted robin high on an outcrop of an island setting and the caption is “start each day with a song”. Now my singing at any time wouldn’t be great but the thought of us starting a new day with music in our hearts is a beautiful symbol. So today, sing yourself a song of warmth and healing for your body, soul and heart. Very soon now I will have the grandchildren helping me with the morning feed, another song for my heart. There are signs everywhere for us to be happy, just look around you and especially on this Sunday. Continue to pray, bless and power healing to all who need it and wear your Sunday best smile.
