May Memories

Its been such a busy time lately, with guests and our animals and all the “behind the scenes” things we do here. Life is simply about learning isn’t it? However much we would like at times, to control everyone (ha ha the great universal joke!) we simply cannot control what anyone says or does, we only have control over what we say & do. Someone this week said to Les “but you make money from your spirituality”. Well, that is actually a funny statement to us because we have always tried so hard to keep our prices so low and affordable for people. Even offering payment plans for those on low income. We believe we do a LOT with a relatively little money. But having a little money doesn’t mean we are not abundant!

We see Hearts everywhere! even in the cut pumpkin skin. Nicholas did not deliberately cut it like this!!

There is so much talk these day about “abundance” and Les and I believe we are truely abundant with Love, Joy, Family, Friends & being able to LIVE our spirituality and not just talk about it or do it only on Sundays or whatever!  Having said that, we could be just as happy not running Heartland and working in a shop or selling books or whatever because it doesn’t matter what we do, only HOW we do it. I am lucky I get to share my love of art & music with others but I am not attached to having to do it.

Walking at "Point Pure" national park & picked up a heart!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We have June staying here again and we always have a great time together. She’s a special part of our Heartland family (she is my adopted mother & Nicholas’s adopted Nanny!) and we now have a new member too, a wwoofa who is here helping us.  Sadly, our three calves are going back to their original owner. We wanted to buy them from him as legally they are still his (which means that anytime he could come & pick them back up). So before they get too entrenched here, (or before we all get too attached to them, which we are anyway!) they are leaving us. :( I have already shed my tears, but I know we have given them a good start for the rest of their lives, we just hope they are going somewhere nice where they will receive lots of love, like they have here.

The cows come home each night to have their bottles. Here is Nicholas feeding them. We will miss them.

So if ever you hear of any animals that need a good, loving home, please keep us in mind. We need to find animals who like to eat lots of grass. Apparently horses eat 2 & 1/2 times the amount of cows.  If you feel inspired & want to help us develop Heartland as a sanctuary for animals, and you’d like to to donate some money (or time) ,  please email us. Thankyou.

Les and I celebrated our joint birthday last week during a program. Nicholas surprised us with a yummy pavlova. as it was also our wedding anniversary, Viv had placed the numbers 8&4 on the cake in honour of our 12 years married. She couldn't find the right number of candles!! Neither of us is 84!

 
I shall leave you with the words of Helen Keller “We could never learn to be brave or patient, if there were only joy in the world”.
Blessings, Trudi

 

Life at Heartland lately has been so busy with lots of new people coming here. It’s been wonderful to share with so many new people and hopefully, help them to open to their own Hearts & Inner Wisdom. In my spare time, I have been listening to talks on my kindle, one of which is…

Arty April

I just had a lady who came up to Artland & did the step by step painting & then came up to me afterwards to say she had been completely blocked creatively for 10 years – she used to paint but stopped in the middle of a painting 10 years ago & that’s been it…

Easter Blessings

A sacred time of inner unfolding. A sacred weekend spent learning to surrender to our Divine self, letting go of all that is not sacred or Divine and embracing that which we truly are. At least, that’s what we consider Easter to be. Until I went into town on Saturday to pick up more fresh…

“D” is for discipline.

Having breakfast with guests this morning, one guest was talking about going on a cruise ship & how often people  over indulge when they go on a cruise because “I’ve paid for it so I am entitled to it” mentality. Why is it that we sometimes just can’t help ourselves? The answer is we can! We just choose…

Holy cows!!!.

I thought it sounded like a good idea at the time. We heard about a program called “Save a cow” which is a local adoption system for young male calves who were born in dairy farms and lack the appropriate appendages for any long term security status on the farm and since we have 80…

Merrily March

    Dear Les and Trudi Thank you so much for the warmth and love that permeates from yourselves to everyone who visits Heartland. I have now been home 2 weeks and continue to see life with clarity and serenity. Meditation is now a new way of life and I am feeling the benefits. You…

Fabulous February

  During our mantra session today,  I gave thanks for the weather we’ve had these past few days. Yesterday was hot & humid and then in the afternoon there was a thunderstorm with rain & today is blissfully breezy and cool…. Ahhhh a breath of fresh air! Without the heat I perhaps would not have…

Les Dyer’s message for the New Year

I am interrupting my series of channelled messages to address the matter of 2012… “End days” has been a popular scare topic since time immemorial: the early Christians were certain the ‘end’ would happen within their lifetime and many latter-day New Agers have been of similar belief. The close of the Mayan Calendar has driven…

A Year of Ease and Grace

This year is the Year of Ease andGrace! That is the intention that we are applying to our lives during 2012. Exploring the inner path of Freedom – not allowing distractions to take us from the clarity of what we are doing here on planet Earth, and of course, at Heartland. Last year was a…
