The Mindful Farmers Daily Diary Day 1370

Good morning everyone and welcome. It is day 9 of my new knee and a painful, very painful last 10-12 hours. No sleep at all during the night and the tablets have no effect. I probably did too much yesterday but we march on. Today is reconciliation day in South Africa and it marks the ending of apartheid and opened up a new world for that country but it has not been easy for them and it is not easy for any situation in conflict. It is not an easy walk. Even in our own life and situations, reconciliation with someone we have fallen out with is often more than we can manage and personally I have my own difficulties at times here even though I coach peace. When someone does you wrong it burrows inside and damages confidence. It may lie still for days and then suddenly it strikes again and again. Somehow we must look for unexpected fruit that God has planted and all of a sudden with nurturing support I thank my family and God for the unknown work laboured in silence. Continue to pray, bless, power healing, peace, hope and love for all and wear your Saturday smile.
