La pleurnicherie ne vous va pas bien !

-

I hope that you have been able to bear with me. Life has been forever a birthing process for me and perhaps I tend to whine from time to time. I blame it on being human. Maybe you see it differently. I am all ears. I live, I learn, I listen. I'll be completely honost with you....my life sucks! I cannot abandon those around me that depend on me. Perhaps there is a little codependency going on here but I can't see it clearly. My salvation is my practice, no matter how sporatic it becomes. Battles with lonliness serve two puposes. On one hand it draws me deeper into awareness but on the other it sometimes makes me feel less human. Others around me, my peers, as there are not enough thereabouts that share my passion for inner cultivation, live their lives differently than I. Solitude is my constant aquaintance and it often makes me sad.

私達は私達によってが私達によってが苦しむことから自由である幸せな5 月である健康な5 月であるように!

Both my kids were born facing the wrong way. Maybe that's a sign, you, alix and I, we're all having birthing pains.

TaoSpring - pallet chicken coop

-
Image
I had less than a month to build a suitable coop and chicken run. I had very little money to work with. Having seen many coops and out buildings that people have assembled using scrap pallets, I thought that I would give it a try. Starting with two 4 x 8 pallets as the floor, I assembled all the available pallets that I could find. This is the frame of the coop. It will measure approximately 8ft x 8ft. Saltbox style roof will be 9 feet at the front and will taper down to 8 1/4 feet in the back. My inspiration is drawn from the bottom photo   seen here. I varied the plans to accommodate the unevenness of available pallet size. In a perfect world a 4' x 4' pallet would make pallet building as easy as playing with Lego's. Unfortunately downsizing has effected everything. Most pallets now measure 48" x 40" and the solid 4' by 4' pallets are usually reclaimed by their owners. Oh, they're out there, but I am looking to build for as little

We're all Gods witha capital "G", eh?

The multiplicity of available forums such as blogger, wordpress, my space and etc...allow us the ability to share something of our experience. And I like that:>) On some subjects we will agree while on others we may see things differently. And that's okay. So, here I go again... I recently read a brilliant and well written post on a Buddhist blog that mapped out the reasons why it is that Buddhists do not believe in a supreme being and that the concept of a creator God is antithetical to Buddhist thought. The post also cites that the Buddha listed belief in a supreme creator as one of the wrong views in the Brahmajala Sutta, Digha 1. This neatly packaged "Buddhist belief" feels like too big a piece of gristle in my mouth. Chewing it creates a rather fatty taste in my mouth and to spit it out feels rude. I have come to a place where I am sensitive or aware of beliefs, labels and such. At several points in my life I could say that I am a Christian, a Taoist, a Buddhist,

Seasons - garden update

This summer has been very unusual. But I've seen it all before. There are times that the seasons act according to form and there are times that they don't. There have been more days of rain and clouds than sunny summer days. In point of fact, we had warmer days in May. We got started rather late but as you can see things are progressing in spite of all the wet weather.
