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 184
I just want to live in the complete now, slower, steadier and letting the pace perfume my mind. When I look out at the pink and purple landscape that adorns the canvas as it floats towards the blue and murmuring sea. This is the life. This is the land. This is the sea. We must all live in the present. Stop dreaming of what life might be in its differences. Enjoy the now – it is all we have. Listen in deep silence, sink into the deep peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous thoughts and sights and sounds of this insane would and let us fill our hearts with compassion for ourselves and each other.
Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm and gardens on another beautiful September morning and day 79 out of lock down. The Mindful Farmer is slowing down for a few days after 6 months of continual work and strife. I am consciously slowing down and I practice this carefully, slowing down my speech, slowing down my breathing, slowing down my walking, slowing down my talking, slowing down my eating. I just want to live in the complete now, slower, steadier and letting the pace perfume my mind. When I look out at the pink and purple landscape that adorns the canvas as it floats towards the blue and murmuring sea. This is the life. This is the land. This is the sea. We must all live in the present. Stop dreaming of what life might be in its differences. Enjoy the now – it is all we have. Listen in deep silence, sink into the deep peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous thoughts and sights and sounds of this insane would and let us fill our hearts with compassion for ourselves and each other.
Continue to pray, bless and heal each other and wear your beautiful smile.
