SELF SUFFICIENT - Reap what you Sow

Показать описание
Thank you Justine & Michael 💚

It's a strange new world of supermarket shortages, self-isolation and lockdown. Many of the things we took for granted have been thrown into disarray. But amid this bewildering loss of normality, seeds still germinate, leaves unfurl, flowers blossom, fruit grows.

In these unsettling times, nature provides a quiet, reassuring continuity. When we observe our seeds growing and maturing from flower to seed, this process deepens our connection with the cycles and seasons of nature. It helps to quiet mind and create a new understanding of life.

As Audrey Hepburn said: 'To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.’

This film features Joe Dyantyi, Edward Gaybba, Cathy Winter and Joshua Miles.
Filmed in South Africa.

Who is Green Renaissance? We are a tiny collective of passionate filmmakers (Michael and Justine). We live off-grid and dedicate our time to making films that we hope will inspire and share ideas.

I am 84. I grew up with having gardens in the backyard along with chickens. It was wonderful. Then I married, no room for a garden, but I planted here and there, moved where there was room and had a garden; divorced...apartment living for some time. Now I am in a retirement home not able to work in the gardens they have. However, the time in the gardens (and libraries) are the happiest I have ever had.

That's the life I dream of. I'm 21 and I think that my contemporaries can't understand it at all. It's making me depressed sometimes but I hope things will get better. To every kind soul reading this - I hope you found joy in this video just as great as the one I found.

“You do the work; don’t look for results”. In other words, let the work move through you and give you joy, no matter what. Beautiful!

I come back to every video in this channel when I feel down and lost. It never fails to lift me up in some way. Thank you for creating quality contents like this. 😊

Do whatever is necessary to ensure you move towards your dream. I am 75 . I compromised parts of my dream. I cannot change that... but I now pursue whatever parts are still alive, and will do so for as long as God grants me strength and days. And yes, I even dream new dreams!
