Then a friend sent me this link, after watching… the above moment had passed.

Dancing on Water-Chinese Art of Bamboo drifting

A lifetime can be a minute, depends on your perception. Today IS another day. Get out there and enjoy it.

Had we had the room, I would have liked to have had the rock moved, to come home with us…captured its boldness with the lens instead. When there is a will, there is a way.

Please ..there is special Lady needing our prayers. yesterday she lost a finger,…. a musician, this is a devastating shock to her, her family and friends, need our support. A quiet moment with a simple healing prayer for all who need our strength today, will be greatly appreciated.

Respect and Acceptance

Mural on the side of an old building as you drive through a little town on old Hwy 31.

The building is empty, there is a rental sign on the window off the front entrance. Where it had been a thriving community at one time, it is now a delightful little piece of history, as cars whiz by towards their destination further along the highway.

What seems so important today, can be a faint memory in the years to come. We live in a world today, that has so much to offer, we intermingle with so many cultures, it is a time to prosper and learn from one another.

It is my prayer that we will not squander away, what so many have worked so hard for, fought for, and died for……

Lesson 13 of the 2016 =PL Calendar…. Each person has their own special qualities. Each of us is born with a unique personality, and a unique worldview. Be respectful of others and learn to get along with people of all types.

be still my heart

Chrome… beautiful shining chrome.some women love diamonds, they are nice, however, a well looked after bike, all polished up and warm from the ride.. Aaaahhh bliss.

p1000568 The rider had stopped for a break, I was close enough to the bike I could hear her settling down, the little pings, and noises that she made… what a beautiful sound. I toured her, and enjoyed viewing her. I believe that even inanimate objects know when they are loved and cared for. This lady had to purr when she was on the highway. Her owner took really good care of her. She had every right to be proud.

p1000567 I did meet the owner ,=^_^= , when I was asked how did I know who owned the bike, I needed only to look, they must have cut quite the figure when the two of them took to the roads. Thank you Paul for being so courteous to someone who fell in love with your very special “lady”.

PL Principle # 3 – I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things..

Never limit your dreams… appreciate the world around you… One second can be a lifetime. The time spent with that Harley had the excitement and thrill of delightful flirtation that took bloom and flew into the storehouse of my daydreams. It was a WOW factor

WE should all have them.. =^_^=

Riding such a bike on an open stretch of road, (secondary road) through valleys, hillsides.. would be AMAZING… The freedom of the open road, skies over head stretching out into forever, Yum….. no radios. no electronic gadgets, just the purring of the engine, and “man” riding as one. YESSSSS

Thursday Doors

An open door, is welcoming, come inside and visit. These doors beckon the visitor to come inside to view the shining old fire trucks. Polished with dedication, they shout out le bienvenue.

I revisited this picture wanted to put it on my screen for a backdrop. I can’t see how one would open that car door?

PL Precept # 1 Life is Art

In this case, I’ve had a good day, I’ve been creative, and I’ve spent time with friends I feel grateful, and appreciate that I am so blessed. If today was a picture it would have been a watercolour of soft harmonizing colours. Yep, calm, peaceful and beautiful.

learning, is a gift.

Give thanks!

a new week

What is this? p1000437

A picture gone rogue. Even with the best intentions, there are times, even when we do everything “supposedly” right… We don’t get what we were expecting. Happens.

Do we worry, stress about it.. Of course not, we simply either do it again, or move on to something else.

p1000319

That works when we are dealing with objects. When we are dealing with another person, or plural, people, redoing something isn’t always easy peasy. In PL, Perfect Liberty, we see each new day, as a new canvas. the possibilities are endless.

I enjoy a good moan and groan, just like anyone else, but it is a moment in time, I move on. that is the beauty of Living in Perfect Liberty (Precept #21) We are given the tools, to help us maneuver the challenges we face on a day-to-day basis.

Perfect Liberty is unique in its way of offering personal guidance to members. We are all so different, with our own personalities and characteristics. Through consultations given by PL ministers members receive personal guidance tailored to their individual situations.

I already know that I plan on a wonderful new week. Each night is about having a good sleep so that I can begin my new “adventure”

Smiles and waves, how you doing today? how has it been so far? Had your morning brew yet? Blessings… have a super grand day, doing whatever it is you need or want to do.

It is said that one can’t teach an old dog new tricks. I have resisted changing to this new format on WordPress for ages. My PC died right. I had to get a new tower, hard drive etc. For some reason, all my bookmarks are gone, Boo hoo. Big girls do cry.

p1000221

Phew… I found a new way to get my pictures from my camera into this new set up. See good things come out of change. One has to believe everything will be alright. Thank goodness I didn’t have to hold my breath for too long.

Everything is OK now. I can safely put myself to bed, and know I’ll sleep =^_^=

PL Precept # 5 One’s self is lost by being emotional

PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.

Start tomorrow with a big smile, and the eagerness of a child for all the discoveries that will come your way.

1 sky 2 worlds

When the Lakota leader Sitting Bull was asked by a white reporter why his people loved and respected him, Sitting Bull replied by asking if it was not true that among white people a man is respected because he has many horses, many houses? When the reporter replied that was indeed true, Sitting Bull then said that his people respected him because he kept nothing for himself.” –Joseph Bruchac – Photograph: Orlando Scott GoffGood Sitting Bull, Lakota leader

Good morning everyone, I found this in my research today. It was posted 4 years ago on the Parabola (The Search for Meaning) site on tumblr.

How well said, and so simply .. it brings us back once more to the individuality of each of us, and how our cultures shape our thinking.

However that said, we are not back living in a time when the differences were not known, researched, studied, and documented. This is 2016 an electronic age, we can sit in our homes and watch documented reports of what is going on around us. There are thousands of published reports, books, magazines, videos and spoken story books. There is no reason for us to not know about our neighbours.

“Before our white brothers arrived to make us civilized men, we didn’t have any kind of prison.
Because of this, we had no delinquents.
Without a prison, there can be no delinquents.
We had no locks nor keys and therefore among us there were no thieves.
When someone was so poor that he couldn’t afford a horse, a tent or a blanket, he would, in that case, receive it all as a gift.
We were too uncivilized to give great importance to private property.
We didn’t know any kind of money and consequently, the value of a human being was not determined by his wealth.
We had no written laws laid down, no lawyers, no politicians, therefore we were not able to cheat and swindle one another.
We were really in bad shape before the white men arrived and I don’t know how to explain how we were able to manage without these fundamental things that (so they tell us) are so necessary for a civilized society.”

— John (Fire) Lame Deer.

This also was found on tumblr,in a post, Desert Dreamer, from Cape Town, South Africa

Just some food for thought to go along with your coffee. I find it extremely interesting and thought provoking that no matter who we are, or what our backgrounds are, we ALL strive for peace and want it in our lives.
