We need to foster and nurture, basic human qualities, warmth, compassion and kindness. These were the thoughts that ran through my tired brain last night. The world is becoming cold, difficult and frightening, anxiety is everywhere. In PL, we strive to practice kindness in our every day lives.
This morning while driving to church, I stopped to capture a bit of the fading fall colours at one of the “green spaces”, I did find colour, but it was this field of muted vegetation that caught my attention, alone they are just a plant whose growing season is coming to an end. Together, they looked like a Monet, they gave me a sense of calm, and serenity … they all blended and harmonized under the sunlight that was building in the sky.
“I believe that if we stop and think, it is clear that our very survival, even today, depends upon the acts and kindness of so many people.” His holiness the Dalai Lama
Your smile energizes the people around you. A smile has the ability to put others at ease and give them energy. Strive to be the first to offer a smile each day to those around you.

One of my conflicting thoughts about wearing a mask. It is hard to smile at somebody while wearing a mask, and it is hard NOT to smile at somebody wearing a mask.
But people are starting to get very creative with their masks. I have seen smilies, toothed grins, matching scarves and even dresses. And the other day I saw a guy with a wonderful handlebar mustache glued to his.

A very pretty and soothing autumn scene – thanks for sharing it!
Thanks Eliza… I enjoy the fall colours, I find them therapeutic!!
It’s a good thing to stop and enjoy nature.
Oh yes! so true!!
