Ambivalent feelings about staying or leaving

Do you want to stay in one place and be rooted to ground yourself in a specific environment? Do you want to be leaving and go to different places to elevate yourself? Can you do both at the same time? Yes you can do both, do not ever think that where you are is static, the place is constantly changing and it is within the details that you can find new meaning for oneself and if this is not enough, plan time in and go to come back different..

Designers of Money Futures - Permaculture

The latest Permaculture session I had was 'Money Futures'. We discussed the reasons why we need Money, the impact of money on the global and living world. Questions were asked about the other alternatives of money and whether we could do without it. It became clear that the discussion was a difficult one to have as we recognise our needs to belong.

Its tremor is different depending on where you live.  I grew up in the countryside as a child where the night is pitch and the birds jam all day long. At bedtime, my only enemies were the clock and the light. The tick-tock danced a manic waltz in my bedroom once, twice. It always ended up at the door, without batteries or smashed against the wall. The light entered in my room through the bottom of the door. It brought with it white ghosts and witches. I'd stared at them. I'd wait for them to leave but they would not. My only o...
