I live a life of Abundance, I am surrounded by beauty everywhere I look. The land that I live on, really looks after me and my family. The trees are literally dripping with fruit at the moment and the vegetable garden is looking very happy and content. I feel so lucky to live where I am. To be nestled in amongst nature, to live fully, yet so simply. To have my breath taken away every time I look out my window, or walk out the door of my home.

![IMG_1182.JPG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWEaGPAKVFQb4qANFTfTMmCfYDBaobtwZHFWD43nNjP4Q/IMG_1182.JPG) Me barefoot and as happy as can be. >To feel my bare feet connect with the earth, to feel the sun upon my face and at times to have such strong winds cleanse and uplift me. I work hard to maintain this lifestyle, for me and my kids. I spend time in my garden tending the plants and the soil. I hand wash our clothes every few days. I climb to the roof of my truck once a week to clean our Solar Panels, it does get very dusty around here. My days are filled with fresh air and learning, making time to express my gratitude for all that I have. In my day I make time to sing and dance with my children, to walk the land we live on so that we notice and take in any subtle changes. We pick oranges, lemons and mandarins, and soon oh so soon the avocados will be ready to be picked. The pomegranates have finished, as have the figs on the land and before that we had some many grapes.

Next we will be harvesting the olives, these majestic trees that have been on this land for hundred's of years, that my children love to climb and that I love to hug and sit with. I live a life of Abundance and the land that I live on really takes care of us, as we do her. It is relationship that is filled with so much love and respect and gratitude. The land feeds me, just as I feed her. I live a life of abundance because I am part of the natural cycle, I am connected with the land, i celebrate it and honour it. This is the life I lead and this is exactly who I am meant to be.
