Dear Ones, when did joy become frivolous to human beings? When did you adopt the idea that it was irresponsible? That it was meant to be enjoyed sporadically, and only when all your duties were done?

Hear us when we say the path of joy is how you find your passions and your purpose. It is the true guidance system of the empowered human beings. Further, joy holds such a beautiful, high energy that it serves not only you and others, but also supports the energetics of your planet. Thus, following your joy is an act of service.

Do you see? Perhaps now you will finally allow yourself to infuse all areas of your life with the energy that was always meant to guide you. ~Archangel Gabriel

To say, “I love you” to another without expectation is the greatest gift you can give yourself. When you come from a place of love to give love, you will receive love in return. ~ Creator

You might not have heard of Gloria Wendroff’s “Heavenletters”, which are intuitively channeled messages that come directly from God (the highest source imaginable), but I think they’re among the most helpful messages out there.

I’m not as passionate about channeling as I once was, but I still follow and repost Gloria’s messages because they resonate a lot with me.

It doesn’t matter how you refer to God (I prefer the terms ‘Jah’ or ‘Source’), and it doesn’t even matter if you believe this omnipotent creator consciousness actually speaks through Gloria Wendroff or anyone else. Either way, you can empower yourself if you look within and expand your limits.

There are endless ways to create your own self-sustaining homestead using 1-acre of land. Some people prefer to keep cows, goats, pigs and hens, while others prefer to keep animal livestock to a minimum, or none at all. With or without livestock, your home can provide you with most of your everyday needs.

Here’s a brief overview how you can turn one-acre of land into a self-sustaining homestead.

How To Raise A Dairy Cow

There are a multitude of pros and cons to keeping a cow on your self-sustaining homestead, although mostly pros if you are willing to put in the extra work. Cows can provide milk, meat and their rich manure makes a great natural fertilizer.

Fresh, all natural cow milk is healthy for you and your family, and it also benefits other livestock such as pigs and poultry. Cow manure will also promote better soil fertility so that your garden continually produces more delicious produce each year.
