“Thank you” again and again, It feels great if someone tells you “thank you” even many times. By repeating this become a person who comes up with the words “thank you” naturally. (PL2023.8)
Happy Birthday wishes go out to everyone who is celebrating a birthday this week. Enjoy your special time!

In my wandering yesterday, I came across a book at charity. I don’t need anymore books, but you know how it is.. your eye falls on something, and after you pick it up to look at it, it somehow stays in your hand.
The life 101 series – You can’t afford the luxury of a negative thought. by John-Robert and Peter McWilliams
“Tis the good reader that makes the book; in every book he finds passages which seem to be confidences or asides hidden from all else and unmistakably meant for his ears; The profit of books is according to the sensibility of the reader; until it is discovered by an equal mind and heart. Emerson
Value your intuition. (PL2014.19)

With the extreme heat and humidity… its been a time to retreat to find places where it is cool, inviting and refreshing. Even friends who usually love and can’t get enough of the warm sunny days, are taking a break from being outdoors. Be safe. if you need to be outdoors, drink a lot of water, stay hydrated. Enjoy mini breaks in the shade, pace yourself. Even the animals, they wander and forage early, so they can retire to the safety of their dens/homes.. when the heat takes hold.
PL Precept # 7 Everything exists in relativity.
The world we live in, is ever changing. Stay in tune with these changes…. learn to deal with them proactively.

Day of Peace, 1st of each month. Ceremony is at 10 a.m.
Use the power of your smile. A smile has the power to help people feel at ease, cheer them up, and at times, give them courage. Smile and spread your warmhearted energy to the people around you. (PL2018.3)

Listen to others’ opinions with an open mind and learn from their wisdom. If you are too entrenched in your own thoughts, you will not be able to catch hints or inspirations from others. Let’s always be open to others’ opinions. (PL2012.7)

Even if you don’t have what you need, you will find a way. If you are fixated on What you don’t have, you will not be blessed with wisdom and a way to solve your problems. Think creatively to get past any obstacles in your way. (2011l24)

-round about. – life is –
Round about midnight inspired many a young musician. Still does today, (music by Thelonious Monk) – link to Monk’s Dream/biography https://youtu.be/icFRHJ9VZaw?si=i-h_2VKdbQyuhzN9
Round abouts are either loved or cause a lot of angst… I’m always surprised when driving with someone else it never fails .. there is a comment if we come to one. (seldom of a positive nature) I myself find them very helpful. Such is life. On the radio yesterday the talk show host was raving on about something, I pushed the button and found myself listening to a country song about, thanking God for unanswered prayers.
Life is full of messages, intuitions and insights, do we listen? maybe yes maybe no.. however, our “mind” hears what we don’t.. and will often replay what you didn’t hear or want to hear.., when you are more receptive. Like 2 a.m. when you are minding your own business… like trying to sleep.
This morning. I think it is pouring rain outside. I will soon find out, Have a good day everyone, I’m heading for the round about… think of the choices I’ll have!!!!
Remember that learning is a lifelong process – No matter you age, there s something to be learned and there is always room for improvement. Always remember that there is wisdom to be gained from any situation. (PL2011.25)

Se a tristeza e a faita de esperanca, Forem bater em seu coacao.. try to do something positive for others.. (If sadness and lack of hope knock in your heart)
Words. words. I hear them. and I feel the love and support …. but there are moments when, I am inside in the darkness… looking out, It will pass.
If you work on things with a prayerful heart, there will be many things you can be taught. (2023.18)
I have been reminded how love is an ingredient that never fades, When we live with love in our hearts, life’s lessons, become blessings that enrich our lives.
Oyashikiri
The human mind is good at confusing what can be and usually is a very simple moment. Believe in the power of a love that is true, for it never leaves you.
