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 68
Today I would like to talk to you about “lost friends”. As life moves along and stands still for no one, we lose great friends who leave a huge void in our lives.
Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm and gardens. Another nice morning here, yesterday was a very busy day. We were on the road delivering to our Neighbour Food friends and a big thank you to my team and to the wonderful and friendly host people. It is a pleasure to work with you all.
Today I would like to talk to you about “lost friends”. As life moves along and stands still for no one, we lose great friends who leave a huge void in our lives. We lose some within the dark weight of the night, many of these friends we journey through life with, we holiday with them, we socialise with them and some we go on a very, very deep journey with deep, deep below time with, in that eternal weave where nothing unravels. It is always very difficult when we lose friends we love from the shelter of our hearts. I always pray during and after meditation for lost friends but I always celebrate the gifts that they have brought to my life. May we learn and grow from the pain of such loss and we wish them peace where spirituality can summon beauty from a wounded space. You may feel at this time that I am very melancholy but deep within my heart and soul I am very much at peace and I hope this is evident to all who know and encounter me.
Continue to pray, bless and heal each other and keep smiling.
