Good Morning everyone –
God will support you if you put your full Makoto (sincerity/heart) into what you do
Don’t be swayed by the past; It’s what you do from now on that counts.
Your failures as well as your successes are now in the past. Always look towards the future and start with a fresh outlook.

Always live with hope in your heart

Some doors are intriguing on their own, this door spoke to me because of where it was located. (found in Japan) (no it wasn’t lost .. but it was a delight to discover) Wouldn’t you want to know how come it exists in that little nook under the rock formation. Starting the day with a mystery…. nice.
Face each moment, each place with a fresh outlook
If you handle a situation with preconceived notions of prejudices, your judgement will be clouded. Take on each situation with a blank slate, as if seeing it for the first time.

just a reminder… of what lies ahead. Right now skies are blue, clear and not a cloud in sight. Will you get out to explore and delight in an adventure or two?

Thought I’d take you down to another time when life was very different from “today” – before my time… but.. I enjoyed the visit. Maybe you will too.
I was looking for a song .. there have been several “passings” these past weeks.. the song.. Happy trails came to mind… and this video came up.
NO cell phones back then.

Another time – another place – peaceful views of a town along the St. Lawrence – it was maybe 4- 5 years ago… I wonder what it is like today.
We are now officially in fall season … already the trees have started to demonstrate their fall colours, Time for another road trip!
For those of us who “craft” its time to begin with the cards, center pieces, decor for the October season even the holidays in December.
There is a special energy and vibe that just builds…. I love it!
PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.

Too soon there will be concrete buildings obscuring the skyline.. chasing away the animals and pushing nature further back… if you still have access to nature … treasure it. Get out and enjoy it.

Some plants survive even when they found the world around them wasn’t going to make it easy.
You can do the same.
Some messages need to be repeated.

What was, is now gone…you can see the new building in the background, the area has all been modernized
Nothing stays the same. Cherish the moments you get to enjoy, the next time you visit… the landscape will have changed.
The same happens with friendships – we grow, our friend’s lives change, they adjust… we are constantly evolving.. it’s life.
