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 124
Surprise is the starting point for gratitude. It opens our inner eye but of course the amazing fact is that everything is a gift and nothing can be taken for granted. As we begin to be grateful for the small things in life, that gratitude grows and grows and expands like ripples on the surface of a pool. When it starts off it can just be a little stone, a little surprise, a little openness, but as the ripple expands it became more alive to what it is given.
Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm and gardens on this July Friday morning and day 19 out of lock down. Today I am going to talk to you about “surprise”. Yesterday I was surprised with a very special gift from a client, friends of mine from our meditation group. It really filled my heart. Surprise is the starting point for gratitude. It opens our inner eye but of course the amazing fact is that everything is a gift and nothing can be taken for granted. As we begin to be grateful for the small things in life, that gratitude grows and grows and expands like ripples on the surface of a pool. When it starts off it can just be a little stone, a little surprise, a little openness, but as the ripple expands it became more alive to what it is given. More and more to the giver and more to the giving. Expectations are limitless. Life doesn’t happen to us, it responds to us and responds to our positivity. For today, surprise somebody with a little gesture and make their day and continue to pray, bless and send healing to each other and wear that smile.
