have spent the evening looking at Bill Mollison's manual and David Holmgrens E-books and reading all about principles and ethics. Have been doing a lot of reading lately, mostly Holmgrens, find him really inspiring and makes me feel re-energised about all of this and just want to read more.. Am feeling really good about getting deeper into this next project, feels like a curtain is beginning to lift and the light is starting to shine through..
We've been staying with a Thai family in Chiang mai for a week now. And I have the feeling that I often do, that I live inside a bit of a bubble when it comes to all things ethical and environmentally conscious. Just how long have the alleyways of the markets here been filled with so much plastic crap? And the roads filled with such big four wheel drives? An endless sea of nothing useful. Makes me feel deeply sorrowful for the challenge we all face. Inside I am a mixture of determination, and hopelessness.
