Time.1

Hello this is a picture taken in NZ the other day, it is going into fall there.

I’m waking up here to a spring day… here in Eastern Canada.

Same week .. same world, but in very different parts of the planet.

Shirl went for her walk at home in NZ and I had my stroll here in Canada.

Isn’t life grand… Think about it, Eliza is starting to share her photos of her spring flowers ..(excellent moments of shared beauty) she is in the States…

We are so lucky/blessed that the technology we have today, allows us to experience “visual” gifts that before .. we would have had to wait days, weeks, even a month, for our friend to take a picture, have it developed, then get it ready to post… Once posted that letter would take days, weeks to travel to your mailbox.

There is much we have to be thankful, let’s remember to give thanks…

Appreciate your friendships… they are part of your personal treasure chest.

We are all here today… we may not be tomorrow.. This is life..

Wednesday

Never judge a book by its cover… or think you can “know” someone or something, by just glancing… three friends on a walk, see the same tree stump, not one .. will see and take in the same stump in the same way.

The only thing that is constant in life… is change.

sanctuary

When I need to regroup, find my balance, my calm… this is where I go.. the quiet, the bliss.. ahhhhh

Geese flying overhead, their honking a reminder that spring has arrived. the tapping of one of the resident woodpecker drumming out his determined search for food. All wrapped around me surrounding me in the comforting embrace of nature’s embrace. I’d come home!

I felt strong enough to venture down the trail, it was a beautiful day, still early enough that I had the whole acreage to myself.

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point.

For many weeks I have been sidelined by a “health issues” that kept me away, it was so therapeutic to once more be under clear blue skies, my feet walking along the well worn path. Nature is healing. It is gift that we so often overlook and take for granted.

Have a good start to the week everyone!

love

Good morning dear friends … of late you may have noticed that there is a huge posting of new sounds/music that are Ai generated. This one I have added here is one that if you listen to it will show you how it is very different from songs we have been bombarded with over the last few decades.

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=FTBejXsiS5I

The words are meaningful and speak of love and sentiment that many of us feel and live day to day, but never speak out loud.

Songs like this are being viewed and liked by not a few hundred but thousands of listeners.

There has to be a reason, yes? that these songs are being embraced by so many viewers/listeners …

Please … take time to listen to your friends/family/coworkers… and very important, listen to yourself.. take care of YOU.

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point

Have a good day … you are special appreciated and loved.

Wednesday

Happiness is found when we make time for discovering the world around us… away from busy hectic noises and frantic energy from negative activities and action.

When was the last time you took time to “stop and smell the roses”?

Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving, in PL. The 21st of every month, service is at 10 a.m. Please if you can’t join us in person…. take a few moments around that time, to close your eyes for a few seconds/minutes and simply say a silent Thank You for your many blessings in life. It is a day of sincere appreciation.

Sunday

Bleak overcast, dull skies, off and on rain, eventually one has to say enough is enough. I find I’m not interested in the many dramas, cheating, killings, negative presentations on the telly. So I took to the internet and found myself a colourful landscape with little critters wandering around. Flowers in bloom everywhere.. little birds flying from branch to branch. Much more relaxing.

My avatar who worked this photo opportunity was happy to get her hair redone, new outfit to wear… all in all a productive few hours.

How about you, I’ve been catching up on my reading, I’m blessed with fabulous bloggers who live all over the world and share stories of life in their part of the Universe with colourful photos and brilliant writing. Due to my recent medical “issue” I’ve gotten way behind in my admin part of my “writing”… However, I have been reading and enjoying.. forgive my lack of immediate response.

Lately I have been totally captured by an Ai. artist who is producing and putting out Soul Blues .. he/she is all over FB and Instagram. I have mixed feelings about how fast Ai is appearing everywhere in my world. Just seems impossible to avoid it. I will leave a sample of his work at the end of this post.

Put your heart into your words. Do you tend to speak in just a matter of fact tone? It is important to put your heart into your words.

Thursday

Yup.. there are days when all we want to do is hibernate, distance ourselves from activity, from media, negative news/attitudes… it happens.

Its’ OK. It really is. We don’t always need to interact and be present for others.. sometimes.. we have to take time.. make time.. for ourselves and what matters to us.
