What I am trying to do is to secure it from the mess left behind after his sudden death ,
to turn it into a self-sustaining, and self-sufficient SAFE ZONE, not only for my wife and family,
but for friends and visitors who are seeking a quiet, beautiful, and tranquill place to renew their health
and enthusiasm of Soul.
the Land has been in my Family for quite a long time.
Now that it has finally passed over to me , I am in a situation
where I need help to get it stable.
Presently all I can do is offer in return for assistance either of finance or labor or donation
is a place to stay on the Island of Paros which is
very beautiful , full of life and activity. I am open to proposals.
If you wish to see what the Island of Paros is like you can visit their Website @
http://www.parosweb.com
Paros, as is most of Greece, and the Kyklades very beautiful in the Spring Time ,
many wild flowers , bright blue skies,
and gentle breezes off the turquoise Aegean.
The local people are relaxed and hospitable.
there is not the crush or hectic atmosphere of summer tourism.
the quality of the visitors and people are very uptone as well.
I would like to connect Stauros to my work and Vision of the Friends of Wisdom.
There is much to do.
the Property is about 10 stremata..has a deep well into the mountain bed rock,
pure marble, 100 meters , good water but needs repair.
about
70 Olive trees about 15 years old ,some older, Almonds, Figs, and grapes
as well as many herbs.
A large farm house as the picture below shows .
The house has been emptied of all furniture by the greedy, not so pleasant
widow of my Father, and her niece ..as well as all the agricultural equipment, tools, machinery.
I did not receive much help from the local Greek Lawyer that I hired , nor any protection by the
law in this matter.
A sort of Zorba the Greek scene like the one portrayed at Boubulina's Death.
I am going to start from where I can, for I have had this dream of an Artistic, Spiritual Place,
source of inspiration, art, philosophy, gardening, creativity
and Safe Zone for many years despite the antagonism and conniving of those who
do not understand anything but their selfish needs and own pleasures of vanity and ego.
I will need help, and I am open to any offers if they are sincere.
I will need money, furniture, some agricultural equipment for the trees, and
the cultivation of gardens,a computer for communication purposes , the well with wonderful water to be repaired,
people who would like to work around the house which
will need repair and painting, garden help, legal help.
Stauros
can become a place,
full of beauty, and creativity, friendship, and good times. Actually it is already as any who
have been there can attest.
I am hoping doors will open and that something can be done to save the hope and
the land for future good.
I have also been considering finding a family that has knowledge of Olive Trees to live on Stauros,
to watch the house and take care of the land while I am away here in the U.S.
I have been considering that perhaps a Palestinian Family living in the Terror and Hell of Israel,
could have an opportunity to escape and to start a decent life for themselves.
I pray that the gods and good people will help make it so for
me and the others that will be connected in some form with me, my wife, and son as
regards our home and farm called Stauros.
I have put these pictures here of the Farm House and
a snap shot of the wonderful wildflowers that grow in the Olive Orchard on Stauros in
the Spring during the months of March ,April, May....
I have decided though to change the format a little and to give a link from here
on the icon below to go to a site which I will devote to my Vision of Stauros
with more pictures and explanations. Of course if you would
like to visit and stay , or vacation on the Greek Isle of Paros..there are
rooms and accomodations available . Go to the link in order to learn more.
