The earth is full of amazing energy
it is everywhere,
sometimes you can see it golden
and flowing over the land,
in the sky,
around all things
The world is alive
And there for us to see
if we will just look.

The memory of green is all we have now
Terry and I have been fixing the fence;
putting up the electric fence, strengthening the five-strand, making sure everything will be ready for when the cows come.
And fixing the road
The start of all the ‘little’ stuff.
Which catches up last seasons work, and gets the farm ready for March, when Spring work begins.

I have been noticing, for some time now, soft, little round holes in my herb garden. Wondering what they were, I decided I had better start paying attention, not wanting some creature or bug taking hold of the soil.
So there I was, two days ago, raking some more leaves out of the carport, when I noticed
A tiny bird in one of the holes. Taking great care to not move quickly, yet get a photo or two
I was able to see, just ‘who’ makes the holes with such intent!
For a few precious seconds, I got to be part of a wonderful little experience–a connection, so to speak.
I thanked the Universe for such a beautiful experience!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Go quietly, please, step softly outside
And experience with me— the Life Force of our Earth.
Stand still, empty your mind, and just feel.
It is there everywhere, in every plant, every creature, in the wind, the water,
Everywhere.
Please. I promise you, you won’t be sorry.
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Not much snow, but Oh! My! Cold is the word. Lots of wind and a nasty wind chill.
WINTER has Arrived!
(Terry and I are so grateful we got the corn out before this hit. Sadly there are still farmers trying to harvest and can’t right now. The farmer on one side of us, and the one behind us, for sure. We sure hope this passes so they can get back into their fields. :()

There is something that is the bestest thing
in the whole wide farm to do—
YES!
Pounce!
See Mom!
SNACK!

Is full of energy
(You are looking at Cedaredge from our house)
The energy of the earth, the sky, the air is flowing through each and everything we see and or touch
We only have to be outside to become part of that energy.
And if you stand still, or dance around in awe, 🙂
You realize you are now one with this amazing energy.
You are one with the ripples and eddies as the energy moves around you
And through you
Swinging, swaying, moving — Dancing, dancing, dancing
Quivering through you and everything alive, including the soil, the rocks, and all the plants 
A soothing song of comfort wrapping you in an endless timeless melody.
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Shadows make my heart happy
They take away chaos
They promise wonderment with enthusiasm
They highlight silence
And blend into the familiar so you are one within
They give you a sliver of peace
A lull, as it were
Allowing you to see, taste, and feel the quiet
Taking away the remaining shouts
echoing throughout the day
Shadows are gossamer
Like a curtain.
From my heart to your world,
Linda
I love watching the sun come up
The skylines seem to shimmer
The earth is black, the weeds streaking the edges of the earth
While the fire of the rising sun colors everything in its path.
The air seems to drift with the glowing sky
Sounds carry further in the early morning air
The God(s) have given us marvelous tools to live this life we live.
The patches of shadow, are always lit from above
The darkness fading into light.
The magic of a new, new day!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
While the hawk is hunting in another part of the farm
The bunnies (and I)
Enjoy a sweet little interlude
In the silence of
The equipment area.
