Yesterday was an amazing day, a time of reflection and positive thought.
I packed up my cooler, my fold-able chair and my hammock. Put everything in my car along with my good pal, Milo, my dog and headed to Riviera, a spot in Malta which brings me serenity and re-energizes me.
I got their before my friends. I tied my hammock up and laid down for a while.
The sea breeze came up the steep hills and blew fresh air into my nostrils. I took long deep breathes, visualized the beauty and enjoyed the silence.
Soon my friends came along and enjoyed the surroundings. The moment was bliss. Peaceful.
Whilst absorbing the true beauty of nature, a few big birds flew over us. This was amazing. Amazing because our island has had an unfortunate battle against hunters for many years now, they hunted most of the seasons. Luckily these days, laws have been kinder to the birds, thus the enjoyment to my eyes.
Not long after this spectacle, my friend Sandro, picked up a rock. This rock consisted of stone, salt crystals and sand. I spent at least twenty minutes gazing at its raw beauty. I am not a geologist ,but I can definitely say this rock was thousands of years old.
So there I was completely relaxed, free and happy. As I took in all the energy that surrounded me, a past idea came to my mind.
My idea is to find a huge area of green land in Malta (Green land in Malta is an area where people cannot build buildings) and buy it using funds from everyone. The land, which will be sold per meter square, will give the buyer a piece of their island, a contribution to nature.
(please note, green land continues to be taken from the community, and since we are an island we only have so much land).
I have contributed to many causes, yet, I have never set one up myself. If any of you have hands on experience here, please send me a message, lets make this idea happen. It will take years to get all the money for the land, but I am ready to take a step each day like I am sure many of you are.
Be part of the project where ever you live. Mother nature is for us all. Take one minute of your time to try our POLL, this is to find a name for this project, step one.
