So good for our children to see the whole process of life and its impact, not the sanitised censored version. I feel myself sink more deeply into the earth each time I reduce and simplify, and am so grateful I can!Henriettahttp://angelwingsandherbtea.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060216394637237928.post-8596452890952500262011-11-02T08:47:31.989-07:002011-11-02T08:47:31.989-07:00We are about to embark on a similar journey, at le...We are about to embark on a similar journey, at least for a time. The house we are moving into will not have all the modern conveniences; we may or may not have a little electricity provided by solar panels, to start off we may not have hot water, we will have a dry toilet which every few weeks will need attention, removing a bucket of urine to sit in the sun before being added to the soil. No washing machine, no refrigerator, no oven and so on.<br />I am looking forward. I have not had much experience living without these things but feel like you that in our hectic lives there is far too little time to connect to the actual work involved with the basics of living. <br />Becoming aware of our bodily waste through a composting toilet, cooking over a fire, washing clothes brush in hand scrubbing, growing the food we eat, living in the wilderness where full awareness must be exercised with each step, I long for it, I find it healthy and good..<br />~Enjoying your writing very much~<br />Warmly,<br />Christinamoment to momenthttp://www.momenttomomentdk.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
