Lately, I find myself constantly saddened by my bulls' living situation.

We were recently forced to move from our rented farm and return to our ancestral lands. We had to set up a temporary shed for the bulls; it’s the best I can give right now, but even this best doesn't feel like enough.

I look forward to the day we build our home and they can finally live comfortably in a permanent space.

Does anyone else ever feel like they’re just not doing enough?

During my short time farming, I have lost chickens and chicks, but this loss hurts to the core.

I can’t sleep without dreaming about this bull. I was there through his entire sickness and watched his eyes go from lively to glassy. A look so deep it felt like it reached his soul. I feel truly tormented by his death. 💔

I’ve had moments where simply convincing my body to stand up felt like a mountain I couldn't climb

Moments when the mental battle was louder than anything else. This photos, the dirt on the ground, are all a reminder of where I’ve come from. A place I never intend to visit again.

If you’re in a season where your body won’t obey your mind, this is for you: Keep fighting. You are closer than you think.

Before homesteading, my body use to feel like it had been permanently glued together.

Doing anything would cause so much physical exhaustion on my body. I love love my new life that turned into a gym

People think keeping a homestead is all sunrises and fresh eggs. They don’t see the emotional torture of losing an animal you’ve fought to save. 💔

It’s the heaviest part of village life, and it never gets easier. No matter how much care you give, the ending isn’t always ours to choose. 🕊️

How do you handle animal loss on your farm?

17/04/2026

What looked like just boredom three weeks ago turned fatal. 💔

We went from simple lethargy to poor feeding, a metabolism diagnosis, and eventually, a downer bull who simply gave up the fight.

I am at peace knowing I gave him the best care possible. From therapy for better blood flow to precise medicine administration, covering him every night, and warming his water on the cold mornings. we fought for him.

But in the end, the timing isn't always ours to choose. Rest easy, my little friend. 🕊️

There’s a different rhythm to village life. You don’t just follow a neighbor, you stop by the fence to see how their garden is growing. 🌿

I’ve realized the same applies here. I don’t expect a follow for one video. I want to earn it by showing you the real, unpolished side of homesteading. Whether it’s animal care tips or just a quiet morning in the yard, I’m glad you’re here.

My heart has always belonged to the animals. 🐂💔

The bond we share with them is heavy, especially when they can't tell us where it hurts. I’m doing everything in my power to offer him therapy and a fighting chance, even when it’s hard to watch.
