The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 212

Good afternoon everyone and welcome to Ballinwillin House Farm on day 7 of our new lock down. It is a truly beautiful day here on the farm and during meditation earlier when I was sitting still and resting I thought how beautiful it is being alone with oneself hand here on the edge of the gardens I can certainly say I am living joyfully and at peace and I sense the birds and the animals sense this also. There is great relaxation and happiness in not wanting, in not being something or someone and in not going somewhere. When I sit in silence here and gaze at the beautiful flowers and trees and the coloured leaves falling back to Mother Earth or the clouds moving slowly across a tumbled sky. In there moments I am released from the dependence on the future and I have no longings to be other than where I am and who I am meant to be. So why not try to do likewise today? I assure you it is very nourishing for your mind and body. Continue to pray, bless and send healing to each other and be mindful and careful and above all else, smile on the world.
