Gratitude
Be thankful to your parents and to your ancestors. You are here today because the “torch of life” has been continuously passed down. Always remember to be thankful.

Do everything with a prayerful mind. even if you have done your best, there are times when you wonder if it enough. that is when your prayers become most important.

Even in our toughest moments, there is a part of us, that yearns to grow into the calm that we see around us. With faith as resilient and determined as dandelions pushing through cracks in the roads and pavements.. one moment becomes another….we let go and move on.
Search out your calm today… then.. pause… enjoy and re energize

shaded, barely seen, you are always there – a friend who never pushes to be heard, or arrives in the moment just for the occasions. you are always present in the background, content to be in my world, an ear to listen, a shoulder to lean on, yes… all those things.. but mostly, you are you.. a gentle whisper of strength when I need it most. Q
Treasure each moment in time. Life is a continuation of “now”. Treasure each and every moment as it comes, so that you can live your life as fully as possible without regrets.

LIFE IS ART
Perfect Liberty Precept #1
EVERYTHING EXISTS IN RELATIVITY
perfect Liberty Precept #7
In life we live each moment of our days, doing, thinking, taking action,eating, sleeping, whatever, there is usually an activity involved. the results of our days, some are productive, some less so, but…. the reality is.. for every “action” there is a “reaction”.
When we take a picture, we capture that moment in time. To the photographer, he/she saw and did so much before he/she took that picture. We see only the results .. what was captured in that moment when the picture was taken.
Mixed media is another re-enactment of sorts. the artists starts with an idea or inspiration, then pulls, tears, shreds, paints, pastes, stamps, whatever to accomplish an end result. In my case, instead of a photo, I call it a “doodle”. (dictionary -verb- to scribble absentmindedly etc.)
Will you “doodle” today, or dawdle…. LOL whatever you do, have a grand time doing it. and… SMILE!!
Your smile energizes the people around you. A smile has the ability to put others at ease and give them energy. Strive to be the first to offer a smile each day to those around you.

There will always be a way. If you persist and be creative without giving up, you will find solutions that you had not considered before.

Always pray “for the happiness of others and society” Praying only for your ow wishes is not the true way we should be. Strive to do things for the sake of others, and pray for their happiness as well.

My appreciation and thanks to all of you who keep in touch, comment, participate in my days.. share your thoughts, photos through your blogs. I truly appreciate each and every one of you.
The above photo was taken by a friend in NZ Shirley Keen, we go back so far, I doubt even she remembers when we began to correspond. She lives in a part of the world I have never been to, her walks, and the wonderful pictures she share from her walks and day trips .. are amazing. It is in sharing the joys in our lives that we continue to expand our own horizons.
May you all be blessed with a day of positive and healing energies. Be safe, be alive! Count your blessings.

…it is that brief moment which unfolds before the soul… the chronicles of time, and reveals to the eyes… the deeds of the night.
…and the works of conscience. It opens Eternity’s secret of the future.
The beauty of life.. Kahlil Gibran
I’ve used his text, from his book The Beauty of life… in a different context, but if you will reflect.. we take what once was perhaps not beautiful, but a functional, and attractive building … put up signs, then go away and just ignore it.
There is always a cause behind every result. Good things and bad things can all be traced back to the cause. Once you discover why things turned out a certain way, your outlook will change.

Good or Bad, It is your mirror. Sincere expressions invite good results, but insincere expressions can lead to unexpected trouble.

reminder
We all lead “busy” lives.. or least we often feel like we are always dealing with hustle and bustle in some form or another.
A friend wrote and reminded me that on the 24th of July, it is Self Care Day! Yes, who knew, I certainly didn’t. she sent me a link to a Zoomer page. It was written by Vivian Vassos, July 21st, 2020 https://www.everythingzoomer.com/health/2020/07/21/self-care-7-ways-to-take-care-of-mind-and-body/
I think I take good care of myself. But do I really? have a look at the information in the link and see how you fare.
When I saw this picture that Derrick took some time back, I found it so interesting that I spent a lot of time just gazing at it, and allowing my imagination to wander down a multitude of avenues. This for me was relaxation, it was inspiring too. That to me was a moment of positive relaxation.
Knowing now that there is a day set aside for reviewing and making time to enjoy some quality time with yourself.. Will you actually do something different, will you make time to break out of your every day routine? Just wondering.. =^_^=
You will find Joy when you immerse yourself in a your task. When you face your task with a can do attitude, you will be filled with enthusiasm and inspiration.

Power of Prayer
I recently did special prayers for someone in my life. I knew how important it was for him to connect with a family member. Due to circumstances, this was an impossibility. The thought had been in my heart, and on my mind for some time, but I had not action-ed my thought.
Sunday after service, I asked to do special prayers with the Sr. Minister. I prayed with faith in my heart, and let it go.
Today in speaking with my friend, I heard the joy in his voice, the opportunity to speak with his loved one had taken place. I was moved to tears. The emotion of the experience was so great.
In my lifetime, I have seen and felt many beautiful happenings. This particular blessing has reaffirmed for me the power of prayer. I have so much gratitude in my heart this evening.
In PL, we can receive personal consultations, or prayers tailored to our individual characters and situation. In this instances I prayed for my friend and his happiness.. In his happiness, I found contentment.
I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things. #4
I will live with the spirit of Misasage (Devotion) working for the happiness of others. #4

It is important to say “Thank You” Everything that appears in front of you is all material for you to improve yourself, whether its food, people, or things. Learn to accept everything whether it is something you like or not.
Perfect Liberty 2020.9
In PL we learn that everything happens for a reason. It is how we accept what happens, our attitude, and the steps we take to deal with the opportunities offered, . Change begins within ourselves.
