this is a great idea and a great way to stay connected with others.. I too get overwhelmed by my feed, I could spend all my time just scrolling and half the time I think I still miss some posts. I am passionate about my kids, about birth and about how we can be proactive in this world. Can't really fit all that into one post so will share one about trekking in the mountains with my kids and some horses.

Thanks for this xx https://steemit.com/happinesscontest/@trucklife-family/happiness-contest-01-treking-for-2-months-with-my-daughters-in-the-mountains

    Okay, WOW. I am very inspired by your post. I think you'll notice from my comment and super embarrassing admission over there. Thank you for sharing this. I have to admit, your lifestyle affords a freedom I would love. One struggle I have in my mind right now is that the plot behind ours went up for sale. It's 5 acres. Someone who slap a motor home on it, right between our house and the zillion dollar mansion. As you might imagine, that would greatly impact the value of my property, as would logging those woods or expanding the nearby neighborhood. So now I'm scrambling to earn to buy that property in order to prevent future financial loss as well as to protect the trees. (OMG THE TREES!) And this is what comes from being attached to one piece of land rather than all of it. I wonder if you have written or would write about that from your perspective?

    Thanks again for inspiring to write more and if everyone wanted to protect the trees around them it would be such a powerful action. The fact that you care about those trees is great that is how it should be. xxxThank you @shawnamawna, I hope you do manage to get the plot next to you so that you can protect those trees. I kind of mentioned how we are brought up wanting to protect our 'homes' and putting all our energy into looking after them but in reality the whole world is our home. I would like to write more, as In some ways it is healthy to look after our home i.e house and land, it is natural, but if everyone extended that to the whole earth we would be living in different times right now. You have inspired me, I will write one later this week. I do write a lot about how human kinds dominate view over nature has affected us all and that ties into this also. I could send you some links to those posts if you want.
