The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 782

Good morning everyone and welcome once more to Ballinwillin House Farm, gardens and RetrEat centre. Earlier this morning after feeding the animals and admiring all of them and their own individual ways and mannerisms I took to gardening, cutting grass, spraying roses and planting some summer budding plants. I then went to admire the wildflower selection I planted last year to enhance insect and bird life. When I looked closely at some of the flowers, in other years I would have classified them as weeds and use the garden hoe on them but not anymore, there is individual beauty in those weeds if we look closely at them. We need to take time to admire them and all the insects and bees that hover around them. We should never pass up an opportunity to admire beauty for beauty in nature is God's handwriting. The beauty in nature can calm us when we trust ourselves into the calmness and stillness of her embrace. Have a beautiful, mindful and peaceful Saturday and continue to pray, bless, power healing, peace and hope to all who need it and wear your Saturday smile.
