Thursday

-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)

When sadness visits.

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.

Tuesday

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.

Thursday

Don’t be captured by the past; live in the now. All things, whether they were positive or negative, are things that have happened in your past. You have the whole world ahead of you to focus on, (2011.28)

We all live through rough moments when we wonder– what? why? how did this happen? Why me? These ahHA moments can be startling, revealing, and even painful. But. the truth and reality of it .. is that moment will pass.. in French there is an expression, “want to or not, this is what it is”… When you have these light bulb moments, thank “Universe/God” you’ve reached the turning point. Say thank you… and move on.

Feelings of appreciation become real when we express them.

Find the door .. open it, walk out or walk in, the world is yours to discover.

Perfect Liberty

Your feelings of Appreciation become real when you express them. Express your feelings of appreciation by actually saying “Thank you” out loud or by doing something to show how you feel. Not only will the person you are thanking feel good, but you will too. Leading to better things in the future. (PL2014.11)

Life isn’t about finding yourself, Life is about creating yourself – George Bernard Shaw

hello!

Hello… remember me.. I am here even tho’ I’ve been boarded up … I can still see you as you pass me by… no longer interested in how I’m doing … I miss the sunny smiles, and the cheerful greetings of passersby … It isn’t my fault that fate happened, and I was made redundant.. .. I do smile as you walk by and hope you will feel the cheerful greeting I send you..

Everyone is in such a rush today, always in a hurry, or looking at some object in their hand… I once had flower beds under me, I could watch as each planting grew each year from budding babies to beautiful petals in such an array of delightful colours. Visitors would stop to admire the flowers and always there would be a smile my way .. Alas that was another day,

As we age, we do see and live through changes, Some changes are life changing, and there is no going back. The reality is.. there IS NO GOING BACK… we can revisit the place, but not the time.

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 toward the future and start with a fresh outlook. (PL2015.9)

The key!

Don’t give up! Keep at it until you accomplish what you’ve started. The key to achieving something is to stick to it. If you are able to continue something from start to finish, you will be sure to accomplish it no matter how difficult the task is. (PL2014.5)

Update on the car. the smell of moth balls is overpowering. It means the car is used for essential travel only. I’m told that it will be a few more weeks before the smell will dissipate. Thanks for following up. You are all so appreciated. Enjoy the new month, the mosquitos here are still on full attack, although wearing the protective netting has made a difference. Not taking pictures tho’ exposes the hands for too long, and gloves are…well.. let’s say… for now I’ll pass. Have a good day everyone!

Goals

Set your goals a little higher each time. If you keep avoiding difficult tasks, the joys and experiences in your life will be shallow. Always challenge yourself by setting your goals a little higher each time. (PL2012.03)

When the road ahead seems to go on and on,,. and each step you take feels slow and tedious.. stop and rest… When we are tired and our mind is on overload… taking time to “regroup” is something you do for YOU. We all need ME time.

This is a happy bunny – hmmmm contentment!

Love is Universal

dreams

Rather than thinking “I have to ….” Think ..”OK, Let’s do this!” When you procrastinate and put things off until later, you will make things harder than they need to be. Get up and do it now. (2020.31)

Dreams are a part of our reality…

another day begins

Good morning everyone, today being Thursday I’m sharing a couple of doorways that I found along the St Lawrence (the river between Canada and the USA) It was a beautiful day for a drive .. a friend and i had an “outing” … there is a food stop along the hwy that runs along the river to Cornwall. It was a lovely day for a drive. the hamburgers are actually made with real meat patties,,, the fries are delicious. everything is made fresh on the spot, Rather than just sit and visit, we explored and enjoyed the beautiful day, Bonus,, I found some great welcoming doors.

Today’s quote..

New Encounters can help you change, Be up for anything even if its out of your comfort zone This is a chance for you to improve yourself as a human being, (PL 2020.30)

Being Thursday, if you would like to visit more doors .. please visit Dan’s No Facilities site.. where other “door/architecture” lovers will post on Thursday Doors. https://nofacilities.com/2024/05/27/memorial-walk-tdwc/

For those who have asked for the last post on my virtual post site… This is the link https://virtualnws8.ca/

Update .. my car came back to me yesterday, it was detailed and repaired, it looks factory new. Smells like a new car The dealer (Surgenor GM Ottawa ) did an amazing job of repairing it and getting it back to me as soon as possible. Their customer service team goes above and beyond when it comes to looking after a client’s needs. We all hear the advertisements, but this is a team that provides and excels at looking after their customers.. remember how they helped when my car rebelled on me when I was out in the woods…

The Service Advisor who looks after my car when it goes in, for regular maintenance and other required services is excellent at what he does, And it is not just him, it was so busy when my car had its breakdown, a member of the mgmt. team gave of his time to help out. No wonder everyone who uses Surgenor has only praise for the service they provide Whether it was the car jockey or one of the mechanics they are tops! The critters did the car in, chewing wires and whatever else they could get at.. but the staff at Surgenor saved the day! Kevin (service advisor) thank you.. you wore your super hero cape again!

There you have it.. my post for today, now I’m going to go and drive my all cleaned up and road ready Buick!
