Broken heart part 1

We decided to destroy the wall in our mind and use the stones for the foundation of something greater.

They were hurt. Their hearts were bleeding. A wall was erected to ensure that no more damage could be further made. A small bird was sitting on a wall passing messages between the two hearts. As the messages went back and forth, the wall got taller, the hearts got weaker and the bird got bigger. They could not see the truth. An attempt was made by one of the heart to put a window to speak directly to the other one.the other heart got scared and said "please bird, take me away?" As the heart by the window saw the heart and the bird leaving. She wept "if only I had the strength to destroy the wall".

A stone spoke to her "pick me up I am a stepping stone to your recovery''. And so the heart, pick up one by one each of the stone to create the foundation of something greater. It is only the beginning of the journey said one of the stone. The broken heart smiled knowing deep inside that a paridise will be built.

Will the bird and the heart return? She asks herself. One of the stone told her to not dwell on the possibility. Her paradise is to be built for her and those who wish to be there. She should let go of any attachments on the outcome. She smiled knowing that her heart will be mended soon

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. We recognise our needs to improve our surroundings. We recognise how much unskilled and clueless we were. We recognise the power of money in making our wishes reality by filling the gap of our own inabilities. Human relationship is probably the most expensive commodity. It forces some to enter the rat-race for happiness and belonging. It is an unfortunate conclusion. Luckily enough, it is not the end of the story. There are many alternatives to money and the gift economy is actually in scale a lot more prominent that people might think. It is not promoted on television but for sure it exists. Join a voluntary group, knock...

Sleep, a precious nightmare

I am the light sleeper. Night is my 'precious nightmare'. I shut the windows and my thick curtain tight. Then, I advice everyone that I am going to sleep. Darkness and silence are precious commodities at bedtime. The lack of sleep due to unforeseen reasons is a high cost for me and anyone around me. When the night roar and turn into day, I battle through the night against the outside world. The outside world is a funny place. 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...
