The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 96

Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm and gardens. A nice mild morning here and all peaceful but I cannot stop thinking of the family of Detective Garda Horkan in Mayo this morning, a man who lost his life in the line of duty as a police man. He paid the ultimate price for our protection and safety with his life. So today I would like to ask you all to pray for his soul and spirit and for his family and friends as they weep their loss, no longer they will look towards each other in this life but the spiritual presence will always guard over us. The same applies to all the people who have lost loved ones during this pandemic. Let us all pray today that the distance of all their names will dwell inside the rhythm of breath and as close to us as we are to ourselves. Though we cannot see you with our outward gaze we know deeply that our souls gaze is upon your face and smiling back to us from within and may this dark grief flower with hope in every heart that loves you.

So continue to pray, bless and send healing to each other and keep that smile.
