Beauty is in the eye of the beholder (turkey vulture soaring gracefully across the sky)

Basic Description (alicia ambers/Macaulay Library)

If you’ve gone looking for raptors on a clear day, your heart has probably leaped at the sight of a large, soaring bird in the distance– perhaps an eagle or osprey. But if it’s soaring with its wings raised in a V and making wobbly circles, it’s likely a Turkey Vulture. These birds ride thermals in the sky and use their keen sense of smell to find fresh carcasses. They are a consummate scavenger, cleaning up the countryside one bite of their sharply hooked bill at a time, and never mussing a feather on their bald heads.

I am guilty of enjoying watching these birds soar across the sky .. for some reason, I just love the way they ride what to me is invisible, but … to them… its freedom. They are graceful in the air. (to me anyway)

We all have our own way of seeing the world. One of the reasons I take to the open road when I need to unwind, is in hopes of catching a vulture in flight. I am in a metal box on wheels, comfortable it may be… I simply can’t launch myself into the air and fly.

In French there is an expression, (to each his own)… what do you do to unwind?

Is there anyone else out there who loves watching the vulture fly?

Have a good day today!

Good morning dear friends … of late you may have noticed that there is a huge posting of new sounds/music that are Ai generated. This one I have added here is one that if you listen to it will show you how it is very different from songs we have been bombarded with over the last few decades.

The words are meaningful and speak of love and sentiment that many of us feel and live day to day, but never speak out loud.

Songs like this are being viewed and liked by not a few hundred but thousands of listeners.

There has to be a reason, yes? that these songs are being embraced by so many viewers/listeners …

Please … take time to listen to your friends/family/coworkers… and very important, listen to yourself.. take care of YOU.

Wednesday

Happiness is found when we make time for discovering the world around us… away from busy hectic noises and frantic energy from negative activities and action.

When was the last time you took time to “stop and smell the roses”?

Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving, in PL. The 21st of every month, service is at 10 a.m. Please if you can’t join us in person…. take a few moments around that time, to close your eyes for a few seconds/minutes and simply say a silent Thank You for your many blessings in life. It is a day of sincere appreciation.

Sunday

Bleak overcast, dull skies, off and on rain, eventually one has to say enough is enough. I find I’m not interested in the many dramas, cheating, killings, negative presentations on the telly. So I took to the internet and found myself a colourful landscape with little critters wandering around. Flowers in bloom everywhere.. little birds flying from branch to branch. Much more relaxing.

My avatar who worked this photo opportunity was happy to get her hair redone, new outfit to wear… all in all a productive few hours.

How about you, I’ve been catching up on my reading, I’m blessed with fabulous bloggers who live all over the world and share stories of life in their part of the Universe with colourful photos and brilliant writing. Due to my recent medical “issue” I’ve gotten way behind in my admin part of my “writing”… However, I have been reading and enjoying.. forgive my lack of immediate response.

Lately I have been totally captured by an Ai. artist who is producing and putting out Soul Blues .. he/she is all over FB and Instagram. I have mixed feelings about how fast Ai is appearing everywhere in my world. Just seems impossible to avoid it. I will leave a sample of his work at the end of this post.


Put your heart into your words. Do you tend to speak in just a matter of fact tone? It is important to put your heart into your words.

Saturday

a little hide-a-way

tucked far away

a distance from any super highway

an idyllic get-a-way

where I watch the sheep rest & play

and lazily let the days

drift from April to May.

I am sooooo ready.


PL 2022.18

Help the people around you smile more

Always strive to make those around you smile. That will bring you joy too.

Thursday

Yup.. there are days when all we want to do is hibernate, distance ourselves from activity, from media, negative news/attitudes… it happens.

Its’ OK. It really is. We don’t always need to interact and be present for others.. sometimes.. we have to take time.. make time.. for ourselves and what matters to us.

Wednesday

Sending positive loving energy out into the world today. Smile.

Tuesday

Another day beings

A season ends

Spring season will bring new possibilities

There will be new trails, and roads to travel

This moment will never come again, don’t squander it.
