Day of Peace

May 1st. in PL we celebrate the 1st of each month with a Day of Peace ceremony. We pray for World Peace and renew our dedication to live as peaceful human beings in our own worlds. Today was also my Mother’s birthday, I will do a special prayer in her memory, and include all my family and friends who have shared part of my journey with me. Love in one’s life is what brings contentment.

Always remember that world peace is everything. If each and every one of us prays for World Peace, we can make it a reality. Let’s keep this in mind as we live each day. PL2015.1

I am blessed to have kind thoughtful people in my life, I appreciate each and every one. Life’s journey would be bleak and bare if we can’t share. Thank YOU all for being part of the world I live in.

Begin today with a smile, spring is bringing new growth, new hope, the buds will open, a new season has begun. We are all ONE under the moon/sun.

It is OK to think…”This is where it starts” There is always a turning point. It’s important what you do from now. (PL 2021.27)

When the tall tree fell early in the month, I cleared around the fallen soldier” and took pictures of the areas that still showed how beautiful it had been in .. the various stages of life it was still holding on to. Parts of the tree that only the birds that used it saw … with it on the ground I was able to walk along side its length and capture some of its beauty. weather worn and lived in and on, it was a work of art.

Life is 10% what happens to me and 90 percent of how I react to it. (Charles Swindoll)

With one thought, “the world” will change. changing your way of thinking will make a difference on how you perceive the world. (PL 2021.24)

She was not alone, her mate came closer and kept watch that I would not go closer. I slowly backed away, happy to have shared a domestic moment with the pair.

Have a good day everyone!

Today’s quote, is one I need to print put and put on my mirror, on my PC screen .. a kitchen cupboard , my car door, almost everywhere. I have multi tasked all my life. It is time to make a supreme effort to change what is a habit that no longer feels comfortable to me. Just because we have always done something, doesn’t mean that we keep doing it.. when the willingness and the desire wanes. When I was carving out a career path and thrived on achievement.. it was a breeze and I loved it. A snow storm, bah.. I would strap on my X country skis and ski to work.. early before dawn to avoid traffic.. if the skiis were not going to work used my snow shoes I had the will and would find a way.

Life is different now, I am supposed to be retired, Seems I’m busier than ever. BUT my mind may want to be active, my body wants to slow down. Yesterday I pulled my folding chair from the back seat of the car, and simply sat with the birds, squirrels, chipmunks and wild turkeys. Yes it was still on the “cold” side, but soon the morning sun, warmed my face, and I felt a weariness I had been refusing to acknowledge begin to stir.

The singing of the birds, the sound of the big male turkey pecking at the corn, the squirrels chasing and scolding lulled me into a nice restful state. Even the blue jays turned down their cawing …it was amazing. Bonus later as I drove away, the sandhill crane was closer to the road, through the trees I got a good look as it gracefully lowered its head to graze.

Multitasking reduces your joy in half, When doing something .. give it your all. There is joy in everything. PL2021.23

variety of sparrows, doves, juncos, red wing blackbirds, cowbird, you name it, they all dropped in. and lets not forget my ravens who were calling from above. Life is so brilliant when we stop to listen.

Every key plays a different note,.. assembled together played in different formats, they produce sounds that can be melodic .. it matters where they are played and how they are put together. In life, at one time or another, you will land on different keys. Each landing will produce a different sound, and reaction from you. In some there will be harmony, in others. . . you will draw on your creativity to get past the experience… In PL.. the first precept is Life is Art.

YOU are the result of your daily efforts. Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through. PL 2022.10

Q? When you are about to eat, you pick up your utensil, and take a bite… do you finish the first bite before starting on the second?

Do you take time to masticate and thoroughly enjoy each bite?

Highs and Lows, Sharp and Flats.. All part of having an interesting day!

Tomorrow the 21st. (Thanksgiving/Day of Appreciation) there will be two services, one at 10 a.m. and the other at 7 pm.

It is so easy to get so frustrated with a situation, you sit back, and take on an attitude of “whatever”….

Don’t look for excuses to say “I can’t” If you let your situation control or you fear failure, you will not be able to feel enthusiastic about anything, Take on any project with a firm conviction that you will succeed.
Perfect Liberty 2011.13

We are all unique personalities. Be respectful of others and learn to get along with people of all types.

When you face difficulties start with anything you can do. When you are able to grasp the situation, you will surely be able to notice something you can do,
Perfect Liberty 2022.12

Sometimes in life we have to step back, and let the world stand still .. allow new possibilities to present themselves.

Treasure each moment in time. Life is a continuation of “now”. Treasure each and every moment as it comes, so that you can live your life as fully as possible without regrets.
