Be creative in your efforts. If something is not going well, take a step back and look at how you are tackling the problem. There is sure to be something you can improve on. (P:2014.16)

Bom dia
As summer brings longer days, the night invites dreams with poignant moments and poetic prose. memories, longing / desire whisper through dreams of yesteryear… that only you can hear.
A moment it time, can seem a lifetime. Being mindful means means you can decide how to make it a positive experience.. only you can decide how to live it.
Put all your effort into the “now”. You can only do your absolute best right this moment; not the past, not in the future, but now. (PL2018.27)

Don’t strain, don’t rush, and don’t be greedy. When you are doing something, you may rush things to get good results quickly. Instead, relax and enjoy the process. (PL2018.7)

Joyous Sunday everyone!
Saturday
Yesterday I was reminded of how even tho’ I know how to sit, be still, meditate .. I seldom actually sit to really be still.. I may sit , yet I am active my mind keeps chattering, I have the telly on, or I’m on my computer.
When I eat .. I am mechanical about what I am doing, I prepare a meal (something to eat) because I know that I’m supposed to be eating at least 3x a day. Then, I will eat as I prepare, maybe sit to eat a bowl or plate of something.. and then I move along with whatever other activity I’m engaged in. This is being busy /active .. but … I ask myself how mindful am I being.
I’m not alone, I bet everyone of you can tell me something similar is going on in your life right now. When I ask you to be mindful, to BE in the moment .. are you able to do so… or are you like me.. Do you need to make time to focus, to be still… to allow your body/mind to simple STOP. Let Go of the mind chatter, and BE.
We all have different ways of feeling and thinking. Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us. (PL2014.13)

Enjoy be happy, make time for YOU today.. even if it is only 10 .. 15 minutes. I use this music to help people unwind, I have them close their eyes and just listen to the music, it is a short piece, …joyful, and catchy. Let your body respond to the notes, and the fun of the tune. No words, just music that will weave itself through your conscious state, and activate the “energize” button in YOU. (Meditation in movement/dance)

I do have a short video of the movements that work beautifully with the music, but have yet to figure out how to show it to you. Nudge me if you want more info.
Music is created/produced and played by Dave Renz.

Take your pick, what will you have today?
Ever wonder what is on your mind? Last night I had this brilliant idea, but of course, when I woke this morning, it was gone.
Recent conversation. Friend. I hear you got a cat. Me. Yes I did. Friend. .So, what is he/she like? Me. I don’t know. Friend. You don’t know? Me. No, he came in and I haven’t seen him since.
Think I’m joking…. guess what… I’m not.
So this is my day, how is yours?

If you face a situation head on, a path will open up. No matter how hard the situation is, face it head on. If you approach it seriously you will be able to find a way to break through, (PL2014.26)
OK I do know this, he is eating, using his litter and except for one brief conversation at me, he is quiet. NO, he has not come near me, or have we been in the same room together. Does a 5 second, pause and acknowledge and then skedaddle count?

Wednesday
As I lay in the silence … I heard the quiet meow of another soul adjusting to the new beginning. There is always a “voice” we need only be open to the world around us. There is only NOW.
Take action now rather than later. things you notice are hints from God/Universe. Be thankful and take action immediately. (PL2012.13)

Tuesday
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)
