If you seek some well-heeled and materialistic person please look else where. If for that matter you seek someone who is spiritual, non materialistic, Look no further. I walk a deeply spiritual path, though I do not adhere to any major or minor religion. I am a real man not the macho type. And have been called dangerously intellectual, an amazing man, a great bear of a man and just delicious. I do not seek a mix of soul mate, lover, friend and companion etc. This is a very rare thing and one is lucky to find it. If you seek this mix then please look elsewhere but I fear you may never find. I enjoy so much in this life. From reading the works of Rumi and Tagore to eating dark chocolate and making bread. This is only a small reflection of me to know me more why not get in contact. Let's see if we walk the same path together. Peace love and light.x.x.

What a wonderful day, spent this morning enjoying some fine weather and reading and a little beading of this I should be doing more but of late I have not had the umph to do so lol

I broke my rule on not shopping on a Sunday by going to a garden centre with my niece to help her by some herbs and I bought a new cup for camping lol.

It was a delight to be helping someone with herbs and such she has a growing interest in cooking food instead of ready meals and the like. She calls it proper cooking lol.
And for me it is such a joy to help. And well we chatted about things life and such.
It was a joyful relaxing time.

I treated her to the herbs that she chose and I hope that in time they will prove and inspiration, I did mention they will need time to settle in and when big enough she can harvest them a little.

Growing things especially veggies and herbs bonds one to the earth in a way that cannot be readily described. Our society is so removed from the earth now we give it little credence, we go into a super market and all is wrapped and portioned all ready for one or even worse really, all ready cooked into a ready meal.

It is a great pity that many have lost that connection to the earth and have no real knowledge on where or how our food is produced. They may buy a piece of steak and they never equate it with the cows they see in a field. Or they may see a field of wheat and never connect it to the shredded wheat or bread that they eat.

There seems to be a movement amongst some celebrity chefs about growing ones own veg but this for many is not at all possible for they have no gardens. Though it is surpriseing what one can grow in a small space using permaculture techniques.

What I would love to see is more openness about where our food comes from the distance travelled and how and why it has been processed in this or that way. Maybe having the plants there in the shop on an exhibition. It could be a start of people knowing where their food does come from. Though I would wonder what would happen if they had a few sheep, cattle and pigs there as well.

We take so much for granted these days we lose the connection and there by lose a part of our selves and our soul in the process. Maybe a promotion of saying a grace or blessings before we eat might help. I have a pagan out look on life but I thank the earth for what I eat every day and the plants that have died to feed me as we all once did with the all we ate whether meat, fish of veggies. I sit in my small square environment cut of from out side excepting for the open window. The blessings brings me in touch with all that have laboured to bring me what I eat from the earth to the chap that delivers my veggies.
I personally do not eat meat for a few reasons but in the main it is that I need to know its provenance and as well give thanks to the beastie for giving up its life so that I may live.

This we often for get that something dies so we can live whether plant or animal.
And in the natural order of things we all feed one another. At one time we would die and then be buried in time we would decay and feed the earth and there by completing a cycle.
That has carried on for millennia. The Sioux have a word well two `Mitakuye oyasin'
Meaning we are all related and that means all living things.
Whether it be a tree, bear or bee.
Well on that I will bid you all a good night.
Blessings and peace to all of you wonderful people. I will brew up now.
Blessed be , peter XXXXX
