I am wanting to appreciate the effort
that it takes for Bill of the Whole Foods Hillcrest
Produce department to get the job done.
More than 350 products and here I come
along with my special needs to bring this
out-of-the-box local fresh that day picked berries
into his produce domain that needs to runs like Rocket Science.
Much communication is needed all around to keep his produce
area running calm and smooth. Over the four weeks I have been involved
there have been days when staff has been stressed due to the
impending Walkout, then Mother's Day, and then last week
when a few of the workers were out. Then I show up.
I have been having all kinds of techno hangups today
and continuing shooting pains extending up my feet to my knees.
This really concerns me.
I am stunned by the amount of imcompletes and priorities
in the wings that I would like to do, and so much of this
depends on my ability to sit and work these computers.
What is going on energetically from a Feng Shui point of
view? Look at that Omoto water experiment where a single
drop can radiate a specific kind of energy. What is the impact
of my own energy when part of me wants to be working on other
projects and questions how to use my valuable time.
I am not feeling content.
Sometimes I desire things and when I get them, I realize
that much emotion was just caught up and invested in the having.
Once I get it, the achievement is not that important.
I spend a lot of time longing.
Yesterday there was a request from Jennifer Joe of the local
Light Connection newspaper for a few lines about the strawberry
project. I knew enough to run this by Ray Kau of the Whole Foods marketing
department. My emails would not get through to him. Finally,
he emailed me, and I emailed him back. That got through.
The little story spoke to the continuity of the strawberries
going through the season. Kay knew to check that out with Bill,
who was nearby. Bill say, they would go through the season,
but it wanted to make sure it was done his way.
"Absolutely!" I said. I do not want to add additional stress.
Plus the cell I gave him for Joe the Farmer did not work for him.
He expressed enthusiasm to go out there himself this Friday.
I gave Ray the number, and it worked. Hooray!!!
I have been waiting for weeks to hear back from Charles Benbrook,
the chief scientist for the Organic Center. He wanted a disk
of my photos, joined the Enchanted Garden Club, and said he was
going to send a contribution. I have been looking for it in the mail
for weeks.
Finally, got an email today, and all I have to do now is send
an Invoice via email to Mark. They are making a nice contribution.
I want to confirm the plan to use these photos on their website.
That will feel real good.
I also ran into techo problems attempting to upload photos of Charles
and Anothony Zolezzi to my Snapfish album that tells the story in photos
of the strawberry project. I want this completion to bring me some
Sponsors for the more than 50 hours I have invested in this Enchanted
Garden Project.
This project was inspired in part by Anthony, who in his book
"How Dog Food Saved the Earth" speaks in fiction to the "strawberry conversion"
he had when he visited a strawberry patch that was organic and saw
the difference between this and a pesticide grown field of berries.
Anthony does marvelous work. Aside for his work as
a member of the board of the Organic Center, he runs many
companies. Pet Promise is a notable achievement. I tried
out this dog food on Buffy, an Enchanted Garden Member. His
Caretaker said that her dog had major health improvements just
with one bag of this antibiotic free food that is made with
Bison and rice.
Anthony is raising the bar that organic food go from 2% market share--
its current usage--to 10% by 2010. We connected at the Natural Product
Expo West in a Seed Dream to see this happen. I feel I have really gotten
behind this, and that the local strawberries supports this.
The Organic Center wants to base their education and promotion work
on Science. I see where one of the best ways we can up the bar is
through giving people like you and me a taste of Real Food.
The enthusiasm is stunning when people have a chance to taste
this wonderful berries that Joe the Farmer is making.
I have also been including my very old ally Michael Besancon, the
regional director of Whole Foods, in on progress of this
Enchanted Garden Project. I can just imagine
how busy Michael is. I sense he has inspired a good part of the Whole
Foods Green Mission. They are currently composting most of what is not
sold, and they are heavy recyclers as well as promoters of Wind Power
for energy. When I reconnected with Michael a few years back after
many years out of touch, he was speaking at a Summit of Nutritional
Industry Execs. He still is long haired as he was in the hippy days
when I knew him. Michael is my original avocado sandwich maker.
He introduced me to the "Essene Gospel of Peace" by Szekely. I was
one of the last ministers ordained by Szekely in the Essene Way.
When I saw Michael I brought the fixings for an avocado sandwich.
We ate lunch together. I asked the Pres of Whole Foods to make
me a sandwich using Lynn Gordon's French Meadow yeast free Rye
and the Follow Your Heart Grapsseed-based Mayonaise that bears the
name of the store that Michael helped co start when I first met him.
I am helping to do something historic here, and looks like it
is working--this bringing of locally grown, fresh picked foods into
our local Whole Foods.
Dr. Jensen said that the doctor is not paid everyday at 5 O'clock.
I have to remember that if I do my detail work and follow up,
I will get funds after the fact for this project.
I can really beat myself up for the amount of hours I am
putting in without seeming compensation in this world.
The strawberries are out-of-the-box food never before in a warehouse.
The closest to any middle man in the delivery system is
Your Enchanted Gardener. I am not exactly your typical
in the box person. There is a part of my Soul that
is positioned quite nicely in service to the True
"Central Intelligence Agency" and the other part of me
can get as crippled as they come on this Earth Plane.
It is taking upmost sensitivity
to work within this corporate setting of Whole Foods
that truly wants to help
the local farner. I own Joe the Farmer and his
family a lot, and he is very appreciate of the time
and work this project is taking. The family has
been supplying me with flowers for conferences for years
and that is only the tip of the iceberg of how they
have helped me week in and out with supplies of organic food
for my various PR projects.
I have blown it a couple times already at Whole Foods
and feel a lot of pain whenever I feel I have done something
wrong. Sometimes, no matter what I do, I can find a way
to feel bad.
Pray with me.
I am not exactly a person who let's go and let's God.
When I want things, I really want them.
I have had a fear that the strawberries would not be allowed
to continue in the store, byt it is clear today that they
will be in there through the remainder of the season. Hooray #2!!!!!
I have more sets
of Spirit Guides working on so many projects and whims
that I keep the Guys up in the Heavenly Beer Bar, my
name for where Spirit lives, laughing. Who needs
Soap Operas when you have Your Enchanted Gardener attempting
to live out all 10,000 of my past lives and existences
in parallel universes all at ONCE. It is enough to drive
the human side of me Crazy, and some people around me nuts.
Thank God I have the Enchanted Garden here and a few
lovely Fairies to keep me inhalling the Sweetness of Life Fully Lived.
I feel possessed by the Talents I have been given.
I have been so Blessedand if I do not use the next 20 years wisely,
all the books that are sitting on my shelves, most of them already done,
will never get out into our world that so deeply needs
beauty. I am not exactly focusing on books right now,
and before that I want to deal with a shift in home ownership--
my buying this house--that also brings up lots of new growth
and trepidations.
On the shelf right now are also "The Seven Love Cures,"
and emotional trauma not far underneath from
upset I feel through late Winter misunderstandings
in the mind of "other high ups" when they saw me doing my thing
in public at their conference.
IT is easy to misunderstand a man who can pick out two people,
have them repeat the words to a poem in public, and next
thing you know they are embracing and giving each other goo goo eyes.
I am not a womanizer, but in the mind of one person there is a position
of power, I was read the riot act. Ouch!
What kind of guy shows up at a MEGA Marketing event with strawberries,
and then offers them for free? The Security had never seen anything
like this. Later we made friends. He had a military background
and thought maybe I was a Terrorist offering tainted food.
Jesus.
Luckily I have a few friends in "High Places"
who get me, and some loving folks who offer
a hug here and there.
Also on the agenda:
I am incredible at creating messes, physical
and otherwise.
The physical messes alone
would take all summer to clean up.
I feel better.
Your Enchanted Gardener
