A burst of marigold 20190307

Someone shredded some of the marigold flowers we have which we will make into tea.  They really glowed and I felt their colour was supporting today’s events.

Today we all have a meeting together and personal stuff was put aside to get things done.  As a result I feel I can carry on.  It was actually very powerful as I felt that we all managed to align with what needs to be done rather than getting lost in our personal stuff.

I have decided that I will not do anything in the Farm Group and will resign from the jobs that I am doing there.  I will have to go to meetings and do other basic stuff but I will not use my time and energy to get involved in all the politicking going on at the moment.  I want to use it more productively in Buddha Garden and to do my creative work.

More tomatoes 20190306

Had a good time in Transition School garden this morning and love this picture of the tomatoes that some of them picked.  The video clips were better than last time.

Feel very hot 20190305

The weather is getting hotter and I always feel very hot at this time and wonder how I will manage the summer.  Although when summer comes I have got used to it.

I love this picture of three of our helpers in conversation.  Everyone seems to be running away from Buddha Garden at the moment to go and live somewhere else.

Talked together about Pierre and got nowhere.  Feel quite depressed.

Nowhere day 20190304

Went to Udavi School today to get more clips for the video.  I didn’t do a very good job with the clips.  The students seem to go a bit silly when I point the camera at them!  I hope by the end of the week when I have gone to all the classes I will have enough clips.  The picture is of some of the tomatoes at Udavi school that seem some way behind our tomatoes in Buddha Garden.

Spoke to Pierre today and got nowhere.

Close up

Got the video done early and uploaded before lunch.  I think my new way of ordering the clips every day makes it easier when it comes to doing the editing.  Rather pleased with the result.

Wondering why on the inside my focus is turning to creative projects while on the outside it seems things are breaking down so I will once more be on my own in Buddha Garden.  Which means I won’t have time to do anything about the creative projects!  Am I sabotaging myself somehow?

Decided to use the other sunflower picture for today.  I love the little seeds.

Sunflower with headache 20190302

Every time I see the sunflower with this cloth over its head it makes me think it must have a headache!  In fact I have tied the cloth around the flower to catch the seeds.  Otherwise every parrot in India will be there to have breakfast.

Went to yoga but head was in overdrive a lot of the time with different ideas.  Very exciting but rather exhausting. 

Family of Gourds 20190301

Ever since these gourds have been picked they have been sitting on the wall just waiting to be photographed.  They all came off the one plant so they are a real family.

The weather is noticeably hotter and I have managed to clear out more stuff.
