Always have presence of mind
If you overexert yourself you will get easily swayed by emotion. Always put the best Makoto with presence of mind.

Good Morning Everyone, yesterday had me visiting a pumpkin display at a farm stall in the east end of the city. Festive colour even though there was a strong suggestion of a rainy day ahead.
Life takes us on many journeys. Some are more pleasant than others. You have all gathered by now that I am a bit of an October junkie. What with the changing colours that surround us as all the hardwood trees start showcasing their fall wardrobes and the stores awash with Halloween decor … its a fun festive time and it will only get better as the Holiday season begins… starting usually in early November.
You ready!!! I don’t know how many times I’ve heard Thriller in the last few days…I actually spent time dancing to it last night… Not kidding.. between that and Monster mash… I’m sure my body thought it was having some kind of “nightmare”..
Today’s message
Multitasking reduces your joy by half

I was so tired when I got to this part of the highway, I had pulled off thinking I’d put the seat back and maybe close my eyes…then I heard all the birds, saw the river slowly drifting by… and I was enticed out of the car ,it was such a beautiful day. Nature and all its wonders is a soothing balm.
Have a good day everyone!

Holding unto anger is like holding on to a hot coal so you can pitch it at another…..
Unclutter your mind. If your life is a room, is it full of shadows and dust…?
Bom dia… Welcome another day.
Be creative in your efforts
If something is not going well, take a step back and look at how you are tackling the problem. there is sure to be something you can improve on.

We all have different ways of feeling and thinking
Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us.

Bom dia everyone…
Past, Present or Future, always remember to be sincere and honest
At any time, the place where you are standing at that moment is the stage upon which you must express yourself. At each moment in time, there is sure to be a way to express yourself in relation to your position or status.

wolves mate forever

There are pumpkins everywhere these days. the small ones they sell for making pies .. are wonderful cubed and used in stir fries or simply steamed and buttered with your favorite spices.
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.
