The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary 317
Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm, gardens and RetrEat centre on day 27 of our latest lock down. This morning the neighbourhood is cold with the winter freeze but soon we will experience the death of winter and the birth of spring, but also this morning in Ballinwillin we mourn the death and passing of Joe Mulcahy our neighbour, a legend in the music business and a founding member of the famous Maurice Mulcahy Band. A band that gave huge enjoyment to thousands of people worldwide. This morning our prayers are with his family, friends and neighbours. Now destiny calls Joe to a place of music where his trumpet will sound again for all our spiritual enjoyment, where his heart will always remain generous, all heavenly doors will open to his musical light as you now quietly befriend your death and you have no need to fear. You are among your own orchestra in the big band with your pure white suit you are now equal to your destiny and nearer to Earths heart. Rest in peace Joe. Continue to pray, bless and power healing to all who need it and wear your smile.

The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 109
I remember when I was a young boy my parents would always bless new born animals with holy water and every time they would see the animals in the fields they would always bless them verbally. At that time I didn’t take too much notice but no I fully realise how powerful these words and blessings were and are. Likewise, anytime we left home they would bless us and did so until they passed from us on earth.
Good morning everyone and welcome to Ballinwillin House Farm and gardens on day 4 of our new life and day 109 of my daily blogs. Today will be a very busy day delivering to Neighbour Food across the country and general farming duties. With deer, wild boar and goats you must check everything everyday as they are wild animals and they can get up all kinds of mischief but I would not change my type of faming for anything because my animals on the farm bring me great joy. I remember when I was a young boy my parents would always bless new born animals with holy water and every time they would see the animals in the fields they would always bless them verbally. At that time I didn’t take too much notice but no I fully realise how powerful these words and blessings were and are. Likewise, anytime we left home they would bless us and did so until they passed from us on earth. Today, formal blessings are rare in our society but I believe parents should do it all the time to their children and friends and community and wish everyone well as we do each morning in our little broadcast. It is a beautiful and lovely custom and one we might remember to enact more consciously. So today please send blessings to all who are near and dear to you and continue to pray and send healing to each other and wear that smile. Have a lovely and peaceful day.
