I think it was Aristotle who said that we are best described by what we do most. I owe my existence to sheep, for what is a shepherd without sheep? This is the kind of thinking that keeps me awake at night after I have been counting sheep all day. I live a kind of paradoxical life.
I leave you with the first of my re-workings, from that great French philosopher Irene Haycartes - "I think, therefore I lamb".
Farmchair Filosophy - being a harvesting of my ponderings from my wanderings over the hills, including re-workings of philosophy and ancient wisdom within an agricultural and bucolic paradigm, axioms, hammerisms, maxims, minims, aphids and aphorisms.
