Looking out at animals calmly enjoying their time in the pasture.
Their only thought is to BE.
Not feeling 100% I took to my bed early, I thought I would listen to my body, and simply lie down.
Life has a way of getting in the way.

Put all of your effort into the NOW.
You can only do your absolute best right this moment; not in the past, not in the future, but NOW
Bom dia dear friends, Greetings.. and blessings.

Sometimes when I need to remember a destination that still evokes the spirit of open country, freedom to roam, with an abundance of natural landscapes, I dig out my trips to Ompah. We would find what some would call a road, but in fact would be perhaps a skidoo trail sitting idle till the winter season descended allowing the snow vehicles to travel into the inviting dense woodlands. We ruined many a muffler till we got the truck. Such were our wanderings. The winter season would not call us back, the snow machines are too noisy. Although I’m sure that had the mood struck, we would have unearthed our snowshoes and tramped our way somewhere into the waiting arms of Mother Nature.
That is the advantage of the snow machines, they traverse land that is unseen during the spring, summer and fall months. There is a season for everyone. It is finding that bit of paradise. Each and every one of us, will describe our personal wonderland with a reverent awe, yet to another, they can’t imagine it at all.
PL Calendar day 26 Maintain a positive attitude and wisdom will come to you
Worrying will prevent you from having good ideas. Stay positive and you will find a solution.

Good morning everyone, bom dia..
I was out of the city most of the week, travelling the roads…Gone are the fields of green, I was met with beautiful skies, that reflected the cooler temperatures, and the fields of white. Interesting how the sky actually looks bluer and the clouds whiter when below is a blanket of crystal white snow.
I love that the world is constantly providing us with an abundance of new vistas, opportunities and challenges. Letting go of what was, is an ongoing process of growth and new experiences.
PL calendar day 24 – Listen and See with careful attention and accept each other
Focus your “eyes” and “ears” towards the expression of others without any pre conceived notions. Then you will be able to see their true intentions.
Life is what we make of it. The choices are always ours.

Every new day is a blessing, each exchange with a friend, is a double blessing, for often through the eyes of our friends, we see a part of ourselves. Q
Be calm, be kind without compromising
Hesitating to share our true feelings hurts not only ourselves, but others. While respecting the other person’s feelings, say what you need to say.

This delightful learning tool was in a thrift shop. Each door has a different key, keys are included. The child learns to find the key and open the door it belongs to. Or goes to the door to be opened, then finds the key to open it.. then lock it. If only I had picked it up when I saw it. I had never seen one before.
next… a window view of the alps below.
Enjoy your travels today. Walk through a few doors. Create your own adventure.

walks in forgotten places
the whisper of the leaves
as they are temporarily displaced
by intruding footsteps
on the well-worn path
the memory haunts me
the path remains, but you are gone
no longer will we explore the unknown
for you have gone into the unknown
You have found peace forever more.
While I wait on the shore
listening for signs, that on earth, one day
peace and happiness will be found around the world
Till then, the haunting beauty will remind me of home
and the comfort of unconditional love, beyond here and into the unknown.

While waiting for the paint to dry, I decided to take a picture, of my nothing page. I do a lot of nothing, that is what speaks to me the most.
I will do a whole book of pages, when the mood strikes, of “nothing” art. When I am done, I will have my very own book of “Nothing” for the month of December 2018 I ask you, What will you do for yourself, to remind you of this coming month of December.
Our thought for today (PL calendar, day 11) was to be thankful for who we are…
Tomorrow, PL Day Calendar day 12 – Carry out what you believe in
Once you have prepared everything to the best of your ability, seize any opportunity that comes your way and take action without hesitation. Express yourself to the fullest.
I learned a long time ago, that “nothing”was not always easy to express. I used to call it abstract art, or expressions. To call it art, to some was stretching it. You dear friends, who have been on this journey with me, know that this is not the first time, you hear me speak of “nothing” If you recall I took pictures one summer of nothing.
All this to say, if it feels right, and it is to be your very own, create your memory your way. A picture, a doodle, story, whatever method choose to for your expression, if done with Makoto (sincerity of intention) it will be great. There are no failures, only experiences.

Good morning, bom dia a todos
Does anyone know where that expression comes from? Nope not me, it is just the phrase came to me, and won’t go away. I certainly didn’t fall out of bed this morning, but instead of my usual, I think today I may be more like garlic.
Maybe it will be a salad kind of day?

Sometimes, we just sit around,
we don’t make a sound
except perhaps a burp now and then
really the day stretches on
we don’t know where the time has gone
It takes years of trial and error to develop this useful skill. We live in a world of go, go, go.
Sitting with only the gentle stirrings of the world around you.
Can be a difficult task indeed.
Try bundling up and doing it in the dead of winter.
It is an amazing release of unwanted “baggage”.
Sometimes, the road that beckons isn’t the road you are on.
You will find that stepping into a different space, will also bring you to another place and maybe even time.
Live each moment with the interest you give a new book that has caught your fancy, where each page is riveting and you drink in each word, fingers poised to turn the page.
Our lives are just as interesting, when we sit in the silence of the moment, The reality of BEING is rejuvenating.
Sometimes, it simply is… no more..no less…
Bom dia everyone, have a good day dear friends.. I carry you in my heart always..
