So the last few days I have been conversing deep within and asking myself a few questions.
One question that keeps coming to the forefront for me is... What am I truly passionate about? Is there something in my life I do that brings me endless joy? There is one thing, and I am trying to work out if there is a way to do it more, and share it with others.
For a while I have been struggling with health issues regarding IBS, and I am learning each day what foods work for me and what do not. I also have been researching growing my own foods (as organically as possible), and if this could be of any benefit to both myself and my husband. I am amazed when I think of all the years shopping at major grocery stores how disconnected I was to where the food comes from and the processing/additives involved with pretty much EVERYTHING I was eating. Seeing some fruits and vegetables all year around also proved how ignorant I was to cycles of seasonal foods!
Hubby and I over the last year have begun renovating our backyard to grow as much of our own food as possible, and we have had some success and some failures. Overall, it is a really pleasurable and fulfilling experience. The joy of seeing fruits and vegetables grow and the vast difference in taste is incredible!
I have a really strong desire to set up a community garden. I would also love to learn more about agricultural systems and how these have significantly changed. To work with people in my local community and educate others how to grow sustainable, organic produce would be my dream!
What are you passionate about? I would love to hear what brings you all joy! Much love to you all. Xxx
