Service 10 a.m.

Ancestors’ Day – 11th of each month, (PL) Today here in North American we also are remembering our veterans’ and those who served (Remembrance Day) Service will be at 10 a.m. EST

Through the ceremony we express our gratitude for the love and virtues of our ancestors and we include special prayers for all those who touch or have touched our lives throughout the years. We ask for their protection and guidance so we can continue to live the PL Way. (Perfect Liberty)

memories

The mind gathers up and stores the many moments we live. Some are easily found .. and others elude us for years till something happens that recalls or brings back that moment in time .. Other moments are dropped into a memory pocket with others, and all we get later is a vague glimpse into… a moment lived/shared.

Make happiness with willingness. People who like to make an effort can enjoy anything. Those who spare no effort for anything and anyone know the joy of making art. Make an effort with willingness.

contemplate

It’s easier to adapt to something when we find it interesting. No matter how enjoyable a situation is, a slight change in our attitude can make it boring. let’s face any situation with curiosity and enthusiasm.

Sometimes it is not what we see, but what we can’t see that speaks to us,

confession

Same area, just weeks apart, drum roll, It is dark in the mornings when I get up, very dark, yesterday when I left it was too dark, today I’ll wait a bit before leaving. I got to the feeders and no one was there to greet me. The sleepy heads heard me and slowly began to arrive, but they were not their chatty selves, there was a lot of grumbling (Ok I might embellish a bit) But they were not their busy busy selves. Bless the little chickadees they were present and greeted me through the grayness of the morning.

Now.. listen up. I have never been a wonton soup fan. In fact I don’t recall ever ordering it in a restaurant. EVER. in Costco the other day, I was getting my shrimp Sui Mi dumplings, and a lady and her friend came to the area and began taking out the wonton soup packages that were displayed beside my Sui Mi. The lady couldn’t say enough about the soup and she and her friend took several boxes. I smiled took my purchase and left. However… the conversation stayed with me.. she had been very enthusiastic. and I love shrimp dumplings. (this wonton soup is filled with shrimp dumplings).

I confess to being at a time in my life where I am not overly keen on making dumplings anymore, or cooking anymore than I have to….. so.. when I went for my top of shrimp dumplings the other day, I took a box of the wonton soup. (6 individual servings per box). I have now gone back and purchased more TWICE because I am having a bowl of wonton soup for breakfast, at lunch and maybe even as a snack later, AND … I bought a box yesterday and already I’ve gone through half of it. Thankfully, I am hoping that this phase will pass. When my husband was still alive, at this time of year he liked the Costco French onion soup .. I never bothered, as I said I was not a soup person. I let him have all the portions. Well…I bought a box of the French onion soup yesterday too. AND its pretty good…….

Tell yourself “things Happen” Even if something is inconvenient, once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

I would if I could

I try, I really do

but, sometimes, the moment happens, and my intension gets blown away, to maybe, come back another day… all I can do… is do my best.

dreaming

High above the tree tops is where I want to be… woke up to snow.. on the ground and still falling,

Cheris this moment, this time this day. People keep growing as time goes on. Cherish your self-expressions.

life

.life is fleeting – it happens – like the moment that comes and goes – there is only now.

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.

BOO fun

Altho’ the actual date set aside for Halloween is the 31st. I hear on the radio that the parties and gatherings will happen this week-end, If they are not already started, they will be in full swing over the next couple of days. We’ve had rain of late, the beautiful colours that sprang out all around to greet us weeks ago, have faded and many have fallen to the ground from being pelted by the rain.

I spent many happy hours exploring all the creativity that is in SL (Second Life).. entering into the magical world of the many seasonal destinations that the fertile minds the artists in SL have created for the viewer’s enjoyment. The SL pictures above were taken at Pacifique ..http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Pacifique/50/173/3748 the owner and artistic director of these amazing builds is Eclair Martinek.. if you are a player/citizen of Second Life, this is the link that will take you to this delightful build.. If you are a photographer , she has given us many photo opportunities, If you just like to play and have fun, explore .. there are caves, tunnels, scuba diving, a mermaid ballroom, hot air balloons.. and the list goes on.

We are not all going to go out Trick or Treating, but we can treat ourselves to the many offerings that abound at this time of year, Life is to be enjoyed….

Develop new ideas through your imagination, Softly and Flexibly. If you could find a way to add a twist you will have more joy.”

Makoto

It has been raining these past few mornings, still the little ones come for breakfast, Photographer Jim Robertson was out the other morning, and captured these two regulars. (https://adobe.ly/3QB6AOc ) It never fails to amaze me how sweet and friendly the little critters are. The Chipmunks can be hard to see as they gather up the corn, nuts, seeds amongst the leaves. The nuthatch can be bold… but usually behaves when strangers come by,

Put Makoto even into small things, Don’t let things go with “oh well” you will have a different outcome if you put Makoto (sincerity) in all you do.

doorways

Kingston Penitentiary, now closed and opened for tours (at certain times)..not very inviting is it. In our searching out of doors, we learn a lot about the past. Going through the doors of the Pen, would not have given anyone feelings of hope … Looking through the open doorways into what was.. certainly leaves you with a determination not to spend much time there.

Seeing the pictures, leaves me with an appreciation for the life I have had, and that i live and enjoy,

My huge thanks to photographer I, Mitchell for giving me permission to use his photos. It is because of the interest/ talent/creativity of others that we are able to enjoy such a vast array of the wonders that abound in the world around us, Today I will get to see architecture and doors from all over the world as I tour the posts of fellow “Thursday Door” bloggers. You can too by visiting, Dan’s No Facilities site… https://nofacilities.com/2023/10/26/barns-of-somers/ On Sundays he posts a summary of all the Thursday Door posts. Have a look.

Today’s calendar…

Smiles are the world’s treasure. If you smile more, there will be more smiles in the world. Be one of those who makes more smiles.
