What a turnaround! 3 months ago, we acquired our 1.1 hectare plot of (wild) land with a house like building on it that was far from ready to move in(to). Since then, @clareartista and I have been going

I really seem to be drawn to the more deep questions that life presents to us, in whatever form they take. Today it's a question that @galenkp has asked, as part of his Weekend Engagement initiative. When

It's been raining a lot lately, such sweet blessings for the earth. In the 10 years that I have been here, this is the most rain that I have seen fall. Everywhere is so fresh and green, everything feels
