Deep down, inside our bodies, lives the soul. No one has ever seen it, but we all know it's there. There is a 'soul bird' who lives inside us all. Tróndur Patursson is a Faroese artist, who has become famous for his trademark stained glass birds. For him, his job as an artist is to capture the soul of those beings represented in his work. And he believes that just like the bird is free, so we must allow our soul to be free.

Honey is anti fungal anti bacterial and fights infections, helping plants to root. Directions: Plant cutting should be about 4 inches long. Cut your plant at a node at a 45degree angle. Pull the bottom half of the leaves off the stem. Wounding your cuttings - by scraping some bark off the bottom of the stem - this helps the chances for it to root. Now dip the end of your cutting stem in honey and plant directly in the ground or place it in a bottle of water and wait for it to root before planting.

As our society progresses further in its obsession and reliance on technology, so does our assumption of needing more of everything to be happy. But true wealth has nothing to do with materialism or our social standing. Instead, wealth comes from within. It comes from what you give to those in need, what you share with people you love, and from that which you cultivate in yourself. Regardless of what we do—and whether we give money, talent, or time — when we serve others we become better ourselves. And the more we give, the more we stand to gain purpose, meaning and happiness — all of the things that we look for in life but are so hard to find. “A man’s true wealth is the good he does in this world.” - Khalil Gibran Filmed in Hermanus, South Africa.
