I have not written in a while.
It is a beautiful day.
Shuna, Viggo and I had a nice walk and ride yesterday.
Duchess is a good horse for me to ride. Shuna has already made her
more pleasant to ride.
Viggo really loves to trot. I ask him after we trot, “How do you like them apples?”
He responds by saying,, “I LOVE them apples!”
Shuna enjoys seeing us both riding.
I really want to make this farm a paradise.
I want to have more gardens, encourage more life.
I also want it to be beautiful. What is beauty?
I want high contrast of colors, shapes, materials, life, ideas, conversation, people, etc. …
Is it beauty? I am not sure, but the more strange we can encourage our farm to be, the more hope it will provide our family and others. The world, or should I say how we interpret it, can be different from how we typically experience it. I want to encourage myself to experience the vastness and the utter oddness and burning beauty of this miracle. I want to appreciate this miracle, but boy it is tough.
I am thankful to have this opportunity.
