I...What a lovely post. Thanks for sharing, Serena. <br />I'm currently working an office job, so I get what you mean about coming home and just wanting to crawl away and disappear. I'm lucky to work where I do, but it's no very fulfilling and eventually I will have to move one. Very soon.<br />I'm glad you have found peace, joy, and tranquility. We all deserve it.

It's amazing how, sometimes, God drops things in our laps when we need them the most.<br /><br />There are six of us eating all those eggs, as well as a few neighbors, and several dozen go to the food distribution on Sundays. :)<br /><br />Blessings on your journey!serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375307816652807841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155900453788977963.post-22480745066995405302016-06-11T09:43:08.469-04:002016-06-11T09:43:08.469-04:00Ahhhh Serena tHIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Thank you...Ahhhh Serena tHIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!! <br /><br />Thank you for sharing such an open, beautiful look into your life. Also thank you for farming and feeding people' I don't think we non-farmers appreciate it nearly enough. <br /><br />I'm so glad you've found your purpose. I admit, some days I'm still trying to figure out if I'm even on the right path. <br /><br />Your words and writing style never cease to make me smile.<br /><br />(Also 37 LAYING HENS?!

(maybe I shouldn't admit that?) I'm still going to be really vague and say I live up north, because you gave me permission to do so. :)serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375307816652807841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155900453788977963.post-34956932797817268842016-06-08T16:49:34.848-04:002016-06-08T16:49:34.848-04:00"For the first time in a very long time, I fe...<i>"For the first time in a very long time, I feel like I am exactly where I'm supposed to be."</i> <<< THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL and honest and exciting!! So stoked for you, Serena! :) ALSO THE THING ABOUT THE BARRED OWLS OMG. what state are you in?!??

And ...There's always urban gardening, you know! And if you're really interested in checking out the rural farming life for a few months, definitely look into summer internships. There may even be some volunteer opportunities in your area where you could help out on a farm once a week or something. If you're ever in New England, shoot me an email -- we could always use a helping hand. :)<br /><br />I'm so glad you enjoyed my story, and I'll definitely think about doing a follow-up (prequel?) post.

I love the hustle and the bustle and the traffic, and the rude shoulder bumps on a busy street or a subway car... as crazy as it may sound. But then I hear a story like yours (by the way, I really do want to hear the why and how... may be a future post?) and I start wondering if that could also be a kind of life I could live and enjoy. May be not full time... I'm too much of a high ruse junkie for that... but may be I could experience something similar for a few months ... may be even just one month in a year, every year. Would that be too detached a dream from the realm of all possibilities? I sure hope not! <br /><br />On a side note, if your farm needs a helping hand, let me know?Malihahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14202238165485341264noreply@blogger.com
