I’ve been asking the big questions for most of my life….. Perhaps you have too. Now in the third chapter of life (I see the Saturn cycles – 0-30, 30-60, 60+ as decades signifying life chapters) and there are days these days when I feel I don’t know any more than I did at 16. Is it just me? Life is feeling surreal, weird, bizarre. Many of us have been using these words since 2020 as we’ve attempted to grasp what is going on out there. It seems to me that we are collectively hanging around in a somewhat precarious limbo. If we have been paying the slightest bit of notice we know a massive financial collapse is imminent. We listen to experts and others telling us to prepare and the recommendations generally focus on self-sufficiency. If we didn’t have the foresight before all this to buy a lifestyle property and start growing our own food – well, then, we can grow vegetables in our kitchens and on our patios. Yeah right. My success in growing microgreens has been patchy (houseplants – fantastic, but I refuse to eat them – they’re family) still, I’m reasonably confident I could supplement our diet with a few fresh nutrients. The operative word is supplement. Much like a vitamin pill.
