Grow

4/26/2021

I was having a conversation this week and accidently came upon the realization that life never gets easy.  Duh. 

I guess the realization was more that the curves that life throws at you, the things you don't know how to do, how to react to...that there isn't an age or level where those things go away.  It was one of those comforting and terrifying realizations. 

Sometimes you just want things to be easy, or known quantities.  ​

So that is some uncomfortable growth there.  

In other news, we are praying for some more comfortable growth.

After a lot of work over many months, we are ready for some more fruit trees on the Tegucigalpa property.  More room for birds to perch, more shade, more oxygen, and maybe even some fruit eventually, presuming we can keep them alive and well.  

We put some money in the local economy buying nine clay pots to put around the property.  Big pots though, about a meter by meter.  Big enough to plant trees in them and maybe some plants eventually around the base.  

There is some other space we have though that have the rest of the trees without being in the way long term. 

I say long term because we will be meeting soon with an architect to see how we can plan for the next 5-20 years on the property with expansion of the clinic, probably big expansion over a couple decades,  a proper meeting area (for pastor's meetings, etc.) and a non-clinic office area for Oscar, and more parking, extra space.  

Should be interesting.  I am guessing there will be more to hear on this in the coming months as we work out a plan. 

The white Ford keeps taking a beating but keeps ticking up in Sampedrana on the farm.  One recent casualty was the back bumper which got a big dent in it.  But...we didn't need the seating area in the bed, so Pablo is "modifying" one of the seats to be a beefy strong replacement.  



We are experimenting with some leather projects with a friend in the USA, he might have a market for leather journal covers, etc.  During the experimenting, Maria had some bits of extra leather to make some key chains.​
There seems to abound new things to contemplate and work on, and a bunch of old things that require help beyond our scope of knowledge (website improvements, legal paperwork and errands, insurance, etc.) that certainly can add stress and unease to the days...and nights.

The struggle is to remember that in the middle of the battle (of what to do, or the battle of the mind) to remember who is in charge, and who has control.
