Mindful Monday


Dawn came up from the couch of her reclining,
 . . . 
with fresh light in her arms for gods and men.

Infrastructure

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

I am a big advocate of anyone entering into sustainable living by simply dropping their present life and moving onto a piece of land with next to nothing, and frankly not even much of a plan.  It's what we did roughly 24 years ago.  That method shows you what you are made of, and clarifies your personal set of needs (everyone's are unique).  In a general sense it has worked out well for us, and though it has taken quite a while, in many areas we have achieved serious success.  Besides, if we had waited to begin living sustainably until we had all our ducks in a row I doubt we ever would have.

Poised upon this threshold of awareness I am free,
in the spotlight of my world,
my life and purpose finally clear . . .
