surprise

Yesterday I had the pleasure of a chance encounter with a local photographer (Jim Robertson) and his wife at the conservation area that I visit each day for my morning “meditations” . Last night I was surprised to see an e-mail from him… Please allow me to share with you the link to his webpage.

https://express.adobe.com/page/WMpCvu93LoVCc/ he captured some of the turkeys that I talk to you about, it was a delight to see them reproduced right here in my office.. their spontaneity and anticipation of a treat. Always brings a “happy moment” ..

Calendar-

“Is there anything I can help you with?” Enjoy a feeling of happiness to contribute to those around you. It will give you confidence that you have something you can do for others.

Kindness

Don’t hesitate to show kindness to others. Do you ever find yourself hesitating to show kindness to someone? It is when you put your thoughts into action tht you can show others what is in your heart.

Healing

Have you ever stood by a cascading water fall, heard the rushing of the water over the rocks, as it travels over the many boulders and dips into the valleys it travels over. it is an awesome feeling to follow its path towards its destination where-ever that may be. It flows with an abandon that is beyond its control, it simply lives in the moment.

After a fall when you’ve hit your head, the healing process is much the same, the body has been shaken your whole system has to rebalance itself. The task before you is trusting in your inner voice, listening to what you can and cannot do… the biggest for me, is to practice PATIENCE.

Todays calendar reminds me… “to start with what I can do” and to think before i take action…

The path to achievement is “to start with what you can do” Try to find out what you can do towards challenges in your own situation. This will pave the way for achievement.

silent scream

The heat, the unbearable heat, the flames, licked and tore at every inch of my Being

I screamed into the night, calling for help

The scars, the death of my offspring, tender young branches

forever etched into my lifeless form

I am no more

yet the shell of what I was, remains.. a sight for all to see….

life will go on around me….

new growth will sprout, nourished by my remains

as I fade into history, back to where I began

life will evolve… it always does…

death and life are intertwined, where one ends, the other begins.

Be true to yourself. No matter how you try to make yourself appear differently, you can’t alter your self worth. Just be yourself, and freely express yourself without hesitation

coming to terms

Coming to terms with the reality of Now. When was younger, I was always confident that if something didn’t happen today it would tomorrow. Now ,, I realize that what is happening Now, is the reality of the moment and even if you wake to a new day, it will still be NOW.

If today is when you want ice cream, then either get it and enjoy it, or forget it. Tomorrow should you wake to live it, it will be a brand new day. It is simple really, don’t live for tomorrow, live for the moment, NOW is all you can be sure of.

Respect the existence of each other. the world consists of people with different circumstances and different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other.
Perfect Liberty 2023.14

Don’t think too much. Simply live each moment the best you can.

Today is Thursday isn’t it. Here is my door for today..

I wanted nothing fancy, nothing new, I just wanted to be able to enjoy the view. I picture this little cabin somewhere in a wooded area, an easy walk to a babbling brook, or a lazy stream. come join me .. sit a spell, let’s simply enjoy being in nature together.. No cell phone, no television, not even a radio.

Later we can build a fire, or start the old wood stove and listen to the crackling of the fire around the dried wood. while we wait for the water to boil and we will share a refreshing cup of ginger tea. I have a shawl or blanket if you feel the chill of the early evening, we can watch as the stars start appearing in the sky.

finding solace

photo Chris O’keefe, USA (Milford St. Blog)(2012)

Chris took this back in June 2012, or at least that is when I first encountered this find of his. when I saw it, I was so taken with the creativity of the artist’s sculptures he’d found. I remember thinking at the time, that the artist had to have had vision.. the picture has always stayed with me, I often see trail bike riders enjoying the woodland trails, wondered if I would love the feeling of traveling through the woods with the canopy of trees overhead and all around.

The idea appealed to me, yet at the same time, I love the slow wander through the various endless vignettes I find when I am enjoying the calm of an unpreoccupied mind when I give my mental faculties a rest as I tune into my surroundings while practicing mindfulness exercises.

Get things started with grit. If you work on things in daily life with the attitude of “let’s do it” you will feel a power to accomplish things. People around you will rely on you

Tune into your surroundings. Try narrowing your attention to something very small, i.e the woodgrain on the bench where you are sitting, a blade of grass….. acknowledge just how being in the outdoors bring you peace of mind – disconnect from the hectic world you are often surrounded by.. find yourself . try the exercise for 10 minutes. find the sense of true calm.

staying calm

— We may not be able to change those around us – but we can change our reaction to them —

When we encounter a situation or “person” that creates in us a negative or upsetting reaction, pause, take a moment to reassess your reaction. We all have moments where we have to readjust our “thinking/reaction” to a colleague, in-law, family member, whoever could be a total stranger. This is an exercise in becoming more adept at communicating from a position of awareness rather than one of defensiveness.

Develop new ideas through your imagination -softly and flexibly. If you could find a way to add a twist you will have more joy,

Doorways

Today I’m starting with doorways of places visited by friends Nick and Mel who are travelling/exploring and visiting with family in Europe. We see similar impressive entrances in our older buildings here in Canada when we visit bigger cities, and/or ones that have been around for a very long time.

This group of doors I took while on a scenic tour of a tourist destination in Ontario, about an hour plus from where I live. Out of interest, which doorways would draw your attention, the big wooden doors in huge impressive fortress type buildings, or the colourful and charming doors in older commercial buildings in small towns.??

Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest, start your day with excitement.
