crow

up on our skynet tower (15m above the roof) sits a crow, he likes that place..
he is around..i like crows; indians when they eat, they always give a little to the crows
Mr.R (name kept hidden) said, "Humans and crows will be the only survivors"
They have this incredible intelligence..

Sarasa, our beautiful dog

Asmara gave that name to our pup..
He is maybe 2 1/2 months now...
He has gone to hell and back - amazing, he had canine distemper a common thing for dogs..even worse is this place has something with dogs, i mean to of our big coconut trees are planted on dead dogs..i mean i lost hope..one afternoon i came back to see him jumpy and energetic and running, that was such a relief.
i did do some EFT and Theta healing on him..did that help? :)
got him vaccinated..

Happy birthday Dhambhai :)

Curious enough, our worker picked up a bunch of lemons (lots) from our tree..i carried them with me thinking i will give them as an offering to Indus valley, good timing, it is Dharmesh's birthday :)
i tried giving them to a school on the way as i happened to bump into one of the teachers she thought i should give them to someone else..
Indus valley being a gift economy place, i thought nice way to return in kind

Protection fence + holy cow

at times i am so grateful for how things can workd out...
it has been a while that i want to improve the fence as the cows enter from so many places, "mulus" (thorns) have been planted, but because of the cashew covering them, they grow very little and creep of the tree which at the end of the day does another purpose..
i have tried talking to the cows, cause actually i do not mind them, they shit all over, the eat the creepers off the growing plants and they are great company (SMILE)...i should try talking to them more because they somehow do eat off the tip of the growing evergreen plants :( or walk so close at times on them and that is sad and heart breaking, as so much attention and love has been put in them.
i mean we had so many parents with their children there for 2 days planting away. beautiful experience..
of course, if i barbed wire the land (17 acres) it would do the job! but...i have planted the tree of abundance, hoping it will shower contributions in the form of colored paper ("money") taking time for the fruits to bear
anyway, called up V. for her permission to take cuttings of the bougainvillia (Protection, Mother's name) could not reach her. the next day i show up at her place and the worker is pruning the thorny plant, super and here i am to take them...i like that! how did that happen?
so home i went with so may cuttings, to put in a bed and get 'em ready for the monsoons! :)
