looking for birds

Trekking through an area of land that until very recently was unknown to me, it is only some 15 minutes from me.. Yes I’ve been driving by for years, and never knew his gem existed. Took a serious world ” happening” to get me to actually get out of my car and explore the area. Also.. to give credit where it is due, it took my dog taking off on me out of the car .. and heading down one of the trails with an urgent need to explore.

I took him back there today, but on a leash. He was not impressed. The little missy, balked at going out, so .. guess what.. she got left at home. Too bad so sad, was not going to insist. When Velcro and I came home, we were both full of the most wonderful tantalizing smells. Don’t know how they communicate, but they certainly seemed to be having a good exchange of information ..

About the birds, I saw flashes of colour here and there, and birds darting from one tree to another.. but was unable to get one to light long enough for me to grab a picture. What I can tell you is that right now the woods are filled with the chirping and singing of the many species that are taking temporary accommodation in the area as they migrate through Ontario.

Life is really an adventure, some chapters are easy reading, and others are jam packed with excitement, tension, and the unknown.. Whatever chapter you are in, you have to know.. that the next page will bring something new into your awareness, it will be forever unfolding.

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.

when two hearts collide

I have a dear friend who also has a blog, and who as a writer helps other writers by giving them a picture and asking them to write a story around what they see. Going through pictures for one of my other blogs, I came across this picture.. It spoke to me of so many possibilities that I thought I would try it out on this blog.

Who are these men, what is the storyline here. The postures, the looks, what do they tell you. Mollie you inspired this.. what do you see? Can you feel the emotions, what is happening here, or could be happening.

I look forward to some input here. I think I know where I would go with this story line, but… I’m going to stand aside and let you dear reader, tell me.

Today’s calendar said ‘Good or Bad, It is your Mirror.”

the 25th day, says.. “Let’s find the joy in Everything” Are you looking for things to complain about? Let’s change our perspective and live a cheerful and joyful life.

Each personality is an individual, each with a heart, feelings and emotions that belong to them and them alone, … in life… we are all a continuation of Nature’s Energy field. What happens when two force fields collide?

Stay safe.. stay strong… be happy!

Don’t give up

Don’t give up! Stick with it, as many times as it takes. Sometimes you want to just throw in the towel and say, “I give up” but that’s the time for you to dig deep and push through. Your sincere effort will invite a good outcome.

Listening is not the same as hearing. You can hear something and tho’ you hear it, it is only sounds.. You are not LISTENING. Listening involves not only audio but movement. When someone listens, they are focused on the words, pauses and spaces. They have gone beyond hearing.

I am in the process of learning to listen more and talk less. OK. admits that works only some time…..but truly, we do need to listen to one another more. Learn not to talk at... but rather speak or try to express clearly to another what our intent is.

example… if I want someone to please me.. I first have to know what it is that pleases me.

Communicate today, include a smile. they work wonders.

initiative

En vez de exigir, ofrezca Primero empliece usted, realizando las cosas que pueda hacer. Hagalo agilmente, comprendiendo el sentimiento de su interlocutor,
Offer your services instead of expecting from others. Take the iniitiative to do what you can to help others. Understand their needs and act swiftly.
Em vez de exigit, ofereca. tome a iniciativa de fazer o que the e possivel. Seja presetativo, correspondendo ao sentimento do proximo.

pieces

close your eyes, take in every piece of what I am, then close your eyes and memorize where each piece of me flows from me to you…. eventually, with time, we will fall away, turning to dust and be blown away… Q

Enjoy the moment while you wait.Things come about when they are meant to happen. think of what you can do for the time being, and don’t rush the outcome.

in flight

The other day I had parked the car.. gotten out.. wanted to stretch my legs. People are not out and about. I had the empty road pretty much to myself. I was enjoying the moment when I was pulled from my daydreaming by the sound of birds on a mission.

There was no stopping them, they had clear blue skies, the temperature was mild and filled with a promise of a new season.. Babe they were flying high, and loving it. I realized how lucky I was to be out there in the fresh air,the warm sun lazily teasing me out of my jacket… Living life is a beautiful awesome feeling. Do not squander your days/nights…

No one can take away the joy you get from putting your whole heart into something. The joy you feel when you’ve put your all into something is yours and yours alone. Nobody can take that away from you.

sometimes a pictures says it all..

Where-ever you are, who ever you are, life is precious, put your whole heart into everything. Express your individuality. When you put your whole heart into expressing yourself, your true beauty will shine through.

what an awesome day

Always be cheerful, happy and good humored. When you make effort to be cheerful and happy, you will naturally begin to feel that way.

It is doubtful if any gift could be bought more precious than the adoration of a heart which has put out all hatred, self pity and desire for revenge.
