oN tHe wAy...2 tHe rAiNbOw gAtHeRiNg...

we travelled on monday and arrived on thursday, but only now I'm having the time to seat and try to write about it...me, Marcia, Lyna and Juran went on a short trip to a rainbow gathering down south in Algarve...I feel I lost the momentum to write about it, but lets see what comes up in this post as it goes :-)...
when i arrived I was filled with lots of feelings and emotions, heart connections, lots of stories in my heart, lots of beautiful pictures in my mind... I have to say that I didn't take many pictures there cuz I don't feel comfortable as I know many people don't like cameras...But most of the things we saw and experienced cannot be capture in a picture anyway...

we had a nice trip, around 5 hours long...we stopped once in Portalegre to have a coffee and to admire an ancient tree, a massive 160 year old "Plátano" (don't know how it's called in English) ... Simply Beautiful !!!

you can call me tree hugger, I won't get offended :-) hug this !!!

We arrived after lunch and set up our "tent" on the hill...

beautiful view as well...
here's also a beautiful flower I've never seen before...it was like made of wax or something... amazing!!! it was right next to our place in the camp...
over the rainbow camp and the beautiful valley of green, yellow, purple and white... a strong fast river run through the valley and along its bank the rainbow camp was set...tents were all over in different places, the main kitchen, 2 tippis and the "coffe shop" from where we could hear shouting "coooooooffee" all day long :-)...
in about one hour we were ready to join the others...
I feel at home at the rainbows...if you're not familiar with these gatherings you can find out more here in a previous post I wrote...
people received us with a warm hug and the usual "welcome home" saying... some were already preparing dinner in the kitchen, a couple of children were playing in the water naked, some others were arriving too.. .we went to the main circle where the fire place is always burning and we joined the musicians... the guy with the guitar started to sing a nice song...I don't remember now exactly but it was something like "Jah is with us , we don't have to fear" , I followed with my drum and it went on and on till dinner was ready ..." Foooooooood circle" :-) time to gather all around the fire and join hands...we forgot the plates...Tsssss....silly us !!! but Provision never failled :-)...once a bottle cut in the middle, a plastic plate and even a normal one... God is good...and the food was always good as well !!!
I met old friends I haven't seen for years, I met new ones...there were around 60-80 people... all beautiful , each with their own characteristic, each one special...
the nights were filled with fun, music and dance...

some nights more than others...one time people were getting wild making animal's sounds...it was so fun!!! so freeing !!! so releasing !!! indescribable with words...

many people asked us about our community and so we left the directions on the "information tree"... we are hoping to have some of them over as there's gonna be another gathering soon nearby in Serra da Estrela, and also a "natural trance party" called "walking to Zion" near Covilha, where people are invited to join with all sorts of instruments ... I wanna go to that one, but I don't think I'll go to the other gathering...too much work in the garden in this hot sunny days ...
But I really wish some of those people we met will come here... That's what this land is for anyway, to welcome the pilgrims, the nomads, the travellers who need a bit of peace and rest on their journey...
not that this meetings are not peaceful nor restful, on the contrary, but as a nomad myself, I know what it's like when you just need a "home" to come back to... I miss travelling actually, and being on The Way...but I know I'm on the right place on the right season... I love hospitality as well:-)...
we also met a nice English couple who shared about permaculture and they will come as well... we could learn few nice things to put in practice here at the land, and I got challenged to attend a 72hours course on Permaculture which will give me lots of new insight and ideas to use in the land... I'll pray and research about it...

Thursday morning we woke up early to start our trip back to the land...we wanted to be with Emmanuel who arrived just the day before we left...too pity we didn't get much time to hang out, but I'm sure he'll be back...next time for a longer period...
we put our tent down...
well, not totally, we left our "roof" to a girl who had no shelter for rain... another beautiful person we met... we went to the the kitchen and coffe shop for good-byes :-( and we were ready to get our feet on the road... or on the car :-)
To complete all these nice experiences in the best way we had one more meeting... not casual I would say...
we wanted to have a coffee and some food before our 5 hours drive, so we stopped on the first cafe on the way... there were people on both of the tables outside so we asked a man if we could join him... "of course he said"... we went in to order our things and only when we came out we noticed he was a traveller too... an older man, on his fifties, and not portuguese... we asked him where he was going... "I'm a pilgrim"... we laughed "so are we !!! " ... " I can tell" ,he said (I wondered why? eh, eh) ...
He was going to "Santiago de Compostela"... it's his second time...the first time was 15 years ago and he said he discovered himself then...now he came to discover Portugal :-) ... he's from The Hague-Holland, divorced 20 years ago, a retired policemen (he worked in the human department services he said) , lives alone and he was surprised to hear we were living in a community...he never heard such a thing...and that surprised us as well... he was challenged by the idea I guess... 
we all felt we were before an amazing person with lots in his heart to share... he was also a musician, he had 2 instruments, one for the inside, the violin, and the other for the outside, the harmonica... his words carried wisdom and he would not speak only superficial things...
when I asked him where he was on his journey with God, he pondered a lot and started to share... he said he went through some shadow places in his life, but he learned few things... in his first pilgrimage he said he lost his arrogance... he thought he didn't need others, that he could be happy alone... that was his arrogance...but he learned he is a social person and he needs men for him to realise he is a man... on that time I remembered a movie I saw recently, "Into the Wild",  which I recommend him to see...actually, I recommend it to you all... 
when he finished I went to the car to pick my Bible and read to him a Psalm that came to my mind as he was speaking...23..."The Lord is my shepherd"...he was grateful ... Juran also played for him his "Mbira", a kind of hand piano from Africa, with which the man was amazed...his name was Anner by the way, even though I'm sure it's not well spelled...
the presence of God was clear in our midst and we could all fill it...
he liked my hat... he didn't had one, and he didn't had much hair to protect him as well, so I gave it to him... you should have seen his joy...

Lyna said he looked like Heidi's grandfather...we all laughed :-)...he didn't want to accept it in the beginning, but I was sure it was not my hat anymore... I was happy too :-)... Juran gave him also a necklace he carried with a nice green stone... Anner didn't know what to say nor what was going on...
Neither do we... we just knew it felt right... we went on our way, leaving him on his journey and followed ours...
we couldn't say much to each other, we all felt we just had a sacred encounter... set up by God for sure...
we went in silence and in awe for a while and I stopped to put on Shimshai's music..."I sense Your presence..."
it was so strong... so real... so beautiful... tears almost fell down my face, my heart was filled with them though...

we were also looking forward to be back home... to be with the others...to see the garden and the trees...and to have a nice "sweat lodge" before a good night of sleep...

rAiNbOwS iN tHe sKy...

it has been raining still... so we're really getting wiser these days :-)... Maren left with Taini back to Germany... she probably will come back after doing what she needs to do in Germany...Marie Ivone (Mami, for all), Lyna's grandmother who has been with us for several weeks is also leaving tomorrow, back to France in her little "twingo" car...it has been a pleasure to have grandma around...she's really funny... specially in the nights when her English fades away and she insists in speaking French to all of us as we would perfectly understand her :-) ...
Juran and Emmanuel are coming tonight as well...
Emmanuel managed to have a break of his busy life in Sweden and he's back with us for few days to have a rest... Juran is coming from Porto again to join me and Marcia on a road trip to a small Iberian Rainbow gathering down south, between here and Algarve... I'm hoping to meet and reconnect with some friends and also to get to know new people who live in communities, both in Portugal and Spain... it's gonna be a good time I'm sure...
Judith from Jesus Freaks Cologne is also here to visit us for few days...

But speaking about rainbows, I just wanted to share a few pictures of amazing natural paintings God has been presenting us these days... Aren't Rainbows amazing ?!!!

Colours in the sky... and it's good to remember God's promise:
(Genesais 9:12-16)
God continued, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and everything living around you and everyone living after you. I'm putting my rainbow in the clouds, a sign of the covenant between me and the Earth. From now on, when I form a cloud over the Earth and the rainbow appears in the cloud, I'll remember my covenant between me and you and everything living, that never again will floodwaters destroy all life. When the rainbow appears in the cloud, I'll see it and remember the eternal covenant between God and everything living, every last living creature on Earth."


and look at our garden , how beautiful it is becoming !!!

aNoThEr tHoUgHt...fRuiTs oUt oF sEaSoN...

I like to eat fruits in its season, isn't it the best?!!
Do you know what I'm talking about by the way?
I'm simply asking cuz I have many people coming over who hardly do that, or some who never did it before...
(most people come from what we call "developed countries")
we live in a time in the "western civilization" (I don't want to speak here about this common terminology, so I'll just use brackets to avoid the discussion) when we can eat all sorts of fruits any time of the year...some of this fruits I wouldn't even be able to spell it correctly cuz they are so foreign...But aren't we losing something with it, I wonder?!!

I was just offered a piece of melon which I refused, simply because it's the only fruit I don't really like ( I tried often to see if my taste had changed, but it still doesn't convince me)
But I always admire the pleasure of those who take a bite on a nice piece of melon in a hot summer day...
Now, wait a minute!!! it's not summer yet!!! we're still in the beginning of spring here...Hummm...
That's when I started to think we are missing on something here...
I believe most of us are losing the gift and pleasure of appreciating the right things at the right time...
We're raised with a mentality that when we want something now, we got to have it NOW...
we no longer want to deal with things like "waiting", "expecting", "looking forward" ( I will not even mention "faith" or "trust" here)...
And we are losing something good with that mentality...
we are losing the excitement of when the expected things arrive... or the surprise... or the acknowledge of a miracle taking place...
We are losing the joy and fulfilment we have when something we are so waiting for, or longing for finally arrives...
I use to do something to allow myself this kind of feelings... I walk bare-foot, I always loved that since I was a child...the cool thing about it is that we are able to feel all sorts of different grounds, and each of them give us a different feeling...
Some are rocky and thorny, not so pleasant I would say, and usually I tend to walk more carefully and slower... but some are soft and grassy, or muddy and mushy, and it feels good for my feet (specially after walking in thorny grounds)...
Now you wonder...cool, but so what ?!!!
what I get from these bare-footed experiences is that I can only appreciate the pleasure of walking in a soft grassy ground after I've experienced to walk in a rocky or thorny ground...
Am I making any sense with this ?!!
Anyway, going back to the fruits before I get lost (or probably you are already lost here, sorry), wouldn't it be much more pleasurable to enjoy each fruit in its season, freshly picked up from the tree (with no chemicals please), instead of eating any fruit whenever we wanted it?!!
For instance, Mango trees (which is my favourite fruit) only bear fruit in Angola between December and January (if you're lucky you can get some in February still)...and what a treat it is to eat them there at this time...
I refuse to eat Mango in Portugal because we don't have them growing here, so I'm sure they're all imported (I'm not even going into the fair trade issue here, don't worry), and even if they are well frozen and transported, I know it would not be the same taste...
I also don't think it would be practical to travel around to all different places just to eat the things we wanted (not so good to the ozone layer, and only accessible for rich people)... again we 'd be feeding the same mentality "we want, we get"...
So I don't have many chances to go to Angola cuz it's too expensive, and last time I went to visit my parents who live there, 3 years ago, I didn't get any Mango cuz it was end of February (Bummer!!! I should have planned it better)...
But I know when I go there next time ( or somewhere else in the world where I can get a Mango out of a tree and not in supermarkets with those little labelled stickers on it) I'm sure I'll have a blast of feelings in my mouth with my first bite on my mango :-) ...
On every different place in the planet,
I believe there are seasonal fruits for a reason :
for seasonal needs...
we have here plenty of oranges throughout all the winter
because our bodies need a lot of vitamin C to stand the cold...
isn't that perfect?!!
we have nice watermelon in the hot summer,
cuz we need extra liquids on that time, and I guess because it also feels nice and refreshing...
Isn't that perfect?!!!

Well, I don't really know anymore what I wanted to say with all this, nor if anyone is following me at this stage, but I guess it's all about a longing in my heart to appreciate every little thing in its right moment, in its right season...
God speaks in the Bible about a tree planted by the river which "bears fruits in its season" (Psalm 1), and we can also read about "the fruits of the Spirit" (Galatians 5:22,23)...
We're not always loving,
but when we need Love (to give or receive) God will always give to us...
we're not always joyful,
but real joy can often come in the most miserable of times,
we're not always peaceful,
but how good does it feel when that peace
that surpasses all human understanding comes...
We're not always patient,
we want everything NOW,
and we're sure that's the best for us,
but how much do we learn and grow
in times when we have to wait and be patient?!!!
we're not always kind, nor good to others all the time,
but what a pleasure and fulfilment it gives us
when we exercise that gift...
we're not always faithful
but isn't amazing how God always trusts in us?!!
He must have a reason :-)...
eventually His faithfulness becomes contagious in us :-)...
we're not always able to control ourselves ,
(probably the hardest of things),
but it's so comforting to Know that the Holy Spirit is in us
and can help us on that too,
bearing His fruits in the right season...

we might not be able to taste every fruit
all at once,
but for each season,
according to our needs (not desires),
God will delight us with the right fruit...
Isn't God perfect?!!!

Now, we can make some practical application after this... not so spiritual, I'll leave that to each one of you :-)

I would suggest (if you don't have a farm with fruits yourself)  that you would find out which are the seasonal fruits of your local area and go buy it from the local farmers (if there are still farmers around you :-/ )... Then enjoy it !!! :-) and be thankful if you are able to do that... if not, promote some native fruit planting in your area :-) that would be fun at least !!!

jUsT a tHoUgHt cRoSsiNg mY MiNd...

I 've been having really cool times reading and taking time to do things I often have no time to do when we have so much work to do on the land...the main reason is because it has been raining "cats and dogs" (funny English expression) throughout the whole week... which is actually good for our trees and garden...and for us to take a rest :-)... I love living with natural seasons, eh, eh...
one of the things I'm able to do more often is to read through some e.mails and some good books... as Maren said, "when it rains, we get wiser", eh, eh, eh... so I got this e.mail where some Christians were "adopting a terrorist" to pray for...Hummm...interesting... but then I had a funny thought..."it would be nice if we would adopt some christians as well :-)"

One of the books I devoured , and I highly recommend it to anyone (though I warn you that it will kick you in the but), was the " Irresistible revolution "
by Shane "something" (sorry, I'm bad with names...he's a cool ordinary radical anyway)... he was in Iraq during the war...he's from the USA by the way (yes, there are still radicals in America)... while he attended a prayer meeting with some Iraqi brothers and sisters (yes, there are Christians in Iraq), one bishop said to him "we will be praying for you. We will be praying for the church in the USA...to be the church"... Wow... so maybe my thought has some reason... We should be praying more for our brothers and sisters (including ourselves) to be the church... to really be followers of Christ and stand for what Jesus stood for... or not stand for what He never stood for (like war for instance)...

I often think about a passage in Hosea 4:1-9...

"1 Hear the word of the LORD, you Israelites,
because the LORD has a charge to bring
against you who live in the land:
"There is no faithfulness, no love,
no acknowledgment of God in the land.
2 There is only cursing, lying and murder,
stealing and adultery;
they break all bounds,
and bloodshed follows bloodshed.

3 Because of this the land dries up,
and all who live in it waste away;
the beasts of the field, the birds in the sky
and the fish in the sea are swept away.

4 "But let no one bring a charge,
let no one accuse another,
for your people are like those
who bring charges against a priest.

5 You stumble day and night,
and the prophets stumble with you.
So I will destroy your mother—

6 my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.
"Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also reject you as my priests;
because you have ignored the law of your God,
I also will ignore your children.

7 The more the priests increased,
the more they sinned against me;
they exchanged their glorious God for something disgraceful.

8 They feed on the sins of my people
and relish their wickedness.

9 And it will be: Like people, like priests.
I will punish both of them for their ways
and repay them for their deeds."

So I always wonder when Christians "point the finger" to "the sinners" in this world...
Isn't it our fault?!! Aren't we "God's priesthood" the ones to point the finger at?!!!

Are we playing our role on earth?!!! Are we taking care of the poor?!! Actually, are we living with the poor?!!!
Are we seeking for justice on earth?!!! Are we not conformed to the patterns of this world?!!!
Are we living lives worthy of bearing God's name?!!!
we are not perfect I know... we'll surely never be in this body... but are we willing to be broken, vulnerable, humble, graceful ,  transformed ?!!! recognising our own failures and constant need of God's mercy and grace ?!!!
Who are we to blame but ourselves, the church?!!!
should we pray more for "terrorists" or for the church to actually be the church?!!!
it's good to pray for "terrorists", but should we pray for ourselves first, that we look differently to any "terrorist"?!!!
Didn't Jesus said to love our enemies?!!! Didn't He make friendship with "terrorists"?!!! think about Paul for instance...Hummm!!! he killed a lot of folks I'm sure of that... but didn't he brought many to life as well?!!! Do we still believe in redemption ?!!!

There was another quote from Shane's book I really liked...it was actually a friend of him who smokes a lot of weed who said this...
" 'Jesus never talked to a prostitute because he didn't see a prostitute. He just saw a child of God He was madly in love with'... When we have new eyes, we can look into the eyes of those we don't even like and see the One we love...we are free to imagine a revolution that sets both the oppressed and the oppressors free."

O.K, just to finish, I'll add another quote from that book , this one was said by Saint Augustine
"the church is a whore, but she's my mother."

"The revolution begins inside each of us, and through little acts of Love, it will take over the world. Let us begin to be christians again. Jesus, give us the courage" (Shane)

I'm left with this prayer:

I wanna pray more... for myself, to be who you created me to be...

for the church to be the church...

for this decaying world to be redeemed ...

For us all to know the depths of your Grace...
Let your Kingdom come Father,
on earth , as it is in Heaven.
Let your will be done.

Amen

Pfff... yes, I have lots to share since I last wrote...and I didn't have much time lately, so, I'm sorry if this will get too long...
I'm actually using my rest day to do what I wanted to do for so long...
there's a lot of work now on the land...every thursday and monday we water all the trees, more than 300, we planted...they are getting so beautiful, and that's so encouraging !!!
But we're also finishing our bathroom which is taking more than a month now, but has been made with so much love by so many people...we're also busy with our veggie garden, which is finally taking its shape... sooo beautiful and peaceful to contemplate it !!!

so, yah, many things to share...still wonder how I'll do it...maybe big tittles would help...Hummm...

LUKAS AND JOEL LEFT US FOR FEW WEEKS
yah, Lukas and Joel left us after their birth-days...24th and 25th of March... we made a nice barbecue party...Joel brought a generator to have some music on, but it didn't work quite well...anyway, we had fun !!!
Next day we were saying good-bye, as they were leaving to Germany to a punk-rock concert and also for Lukas to see his family and friends... they will hitch-hike back soon... we all miss them here :-)
next day we gave Lukas his presents... including a recipe book we all wrote in with which he was mostly pleased :-) ... and then we had our first "community meeting"... it was mostly a time to hear each other's expectations and motivations to be here at this time... it is now the first time after one and a half year that a small group of people consider to stay for long time periods... me and Ton feel to be committed to stay for 10 years, Lyna and David who will soon have their baby here, will stay at least one year, Marcia till the summer...Miri feels this is her home, but she wants to travel around as that is part of her nature (or her season now)... Maren will go to Germany now to take care of some stuff and she doesn't know yet if this is her place for the moment... Joel will decide when he comes back from Germany and Lukas also said he feels like this community became his family and he will consider coming back after going to Germany for the summer...
It was a cool time and it was good to make things more clear...
One thing I know...this is God's land...God's community (even though not all know God personally)... and as long as God's purposes are fulfilled here, He will be with us... that's what makes this place special for me... and I believe God will bring the right people on the right time...people who will stay for longer time...people who will come and go...but God will remain the same...and hopefully His vision for this place will remain forever (whatever "forever" means) ...

MOST PART OF THE LOAN IS ALREADY PAID...THANK GOD AND MANY WHO PARTICIPATED ONCE AGAIN
As most of you know, God is in the centre of the story of this land right from the beginning (and I wanted to make that clear on the meeting we had also)..
.God spoke to a couple first, who sold their business to buy this land for God... they eventually stepped back and we faced to challenge to buy the land back to God...or better saying, keep it as it was before... so we raised 30.000 E in 5 weeks, to pay back to this couple, 10.000 of which were loaned by 2 friends for a year...
Thanks to many of you who contributed to the "magic hat" this last weeks, we were able to gather 6.500 E which I already sent last friday, 28th March, to this friends...we have around 2000E more, so we just need 1.500 E to complete the full amount of the loan...
Once again, PRAISE GOD FOR HE IS FAITHFUL... AND THANKS TO HIS FAITHFUL AND GENEROUS PEOPLE AS WELL...

GOD ANSWERS SILLY PRAYERS TOO
But God
answers "silly" prayers too (sometimes I feel my prayers are silly, but I do it anyway)...so, this week I had a couple of those... first for one of our cats, Sambo...she and Duma got sterilized on friday, 28th, and I had to give them shots...I hate that part...so Sambo didn't really like it either, so one morning she just ran away and was gone for 2 days... on the 3rd day in the morning I went to my prayer time and was calling her on the way... I couldn't hold it any longer...I could only cry and asked God to bring her back safe and to not allow any infection in her body... I felt I couldn't just stay there and cry, so I took a bit of cheese from my breakfast and went around calling her... nothing...no "miau" anywhere :-( ... I went back to the prayer tent and worshipped God with the others who came (we know have prayer times together from 9-10 am )... As I went back to the kitchen, little Hanna came to me with excitement saying "Sambo is back"... wow, you can imagine my joy and thankfulness :-)... but then God also started to speak to me something... "Can you cry like that for my lost children?! can you go after them?!! I'm so looking forward to bring them back home "... Wow, that is still moving my heart... I want to be crying for the lost like that... I want to feel God's heart for those who are lost...still far from home...maybe in need of healing...maybe in need of affection...surelly in need to come back Home...


The other "silly" prayer was a bit more silly...ok, our water pump broke down...and we do need it specially now to water the garden...it takes us at least 2 hours now to water everything every evening...so, I had spent the whole day fixing the pipes and when I was ready to run the pump I noticed that the fuel was all gone and dripping somewhere... I was pulling the roap over and over, but nothing...F***...now what?!! we couldn't wait, so we just went back to good hold way of watering the garden...I picked as much buckets as I could get, Ton, Marcia and little Hanna came to help and we pulled bucket after bucket to water all the plants...
we need around, maybe more then 200 litters to water all the plants... but we made it :-) with Hanna in our command, she wouldn't stop saying "shneller, shneller" (I 'm sure is badly spelled, it's "faster, faster" in german)... but that made it really fast, and really fun !!!
next morning in our prayer time I dared to ask God to fix our pump as it was really tiring last day... my faith was not so daring, so I asked at least to get someone who could fix it... so after siesta, I was going to the village to find a man who could come and see the pump, but I decided to go check it first... the fuel was not dripping anymore, so I thought about the prayer, and even though I felt silly I decided to give it a try... :-) I didn't even have to try several times as usual, it run at first :-)... I couldn't help but laugh, and thank God...

SOME MORE VISITS


we had Juran back for a couple of days, together with Pedro, my cousin from Porto...he's like my brother, we grew up together as our parents were best friends...It was so nice to have him here, even if it was just for a couple of days...Edna, Paulo,

Pamy, Joshua and Nelson also came form Porto to spent a night and a day...it was so pleasant to have them all here...

here's Pamy planting some Cherry trees with me :-)
Christian also came from Lisbon... what a boy (sorry Chris to call you boy, hope you don't mind)... it was such a blessing for all of us to have him around...he just carries the presence of Jesus in such a sweet and tender way...he also delighted all of us with his amazing troubadour's romantic heart :-)... Thank you Chris... you are such a beautiful person... he also prepared for us together with Juran a good "sweat lodge" ...
it was so nice, even though not quite hot and sweaty yet...
yesterday we got it better, covering all the wholes around and making the stones very hot ...wow, so good!!! it's becoming a nice fellowship time as well, for those who go in the sweat lodge, and for the others who stay outside chatting and playing guitar till late in the night...
some of the privileges of living in the wild :-)


LIFE IN THE LAND

with all the busy times, storms, spectacular and normal things in the land, life goes on fine... Lyna and David are on their way to finish setting up their Yurt...
shantii, shantii... I guess the next storm will test it ...it's looking good though...
As I said the work in the garden is going fine, Marcia, Maren
and Julia often join me to help...
Miri is almost finished with last details of our bathroom...Ton is always busy with the trees and the upper forest. It's becoming so beautiful as well...
It's been very good to have the prayer time in the mornings, and once a week (we still didn't figure out which day would be better) we have the "Dance Floor", where we'll feel free to dance with the Spirit, being led as The Spirit wants...we'll never know how it will look like...


CRAZY WEATHER
We've been having some crazy weather as well, with really strong winds, rain, haze,

and now a very hot sunny week...
it makes me wonder with God's creation, and how fragile we are before it... we realize that much more when we live in the middle of woods which trees bounce around like crazy dancers, or in fragile tents in the middle of the meadow... Tssss, but God kept us all safe :-)...
storm is coming again soon by the way...I can hear the thunder already now...ay, ay, ay...Better go take refuge in my hut...
bless you all

PEACE
