Don’t hesitate to show kindness to others

Do you ever find yourself hesitating to show kindness to someone? It is when you put your thoughts into action that you can show others what is in your heart (PL2014.31)


This is the night, “monsters” will go door to door, trick or treating.. Somehow I think these doors won’t open to such requests. Stay safe, enjoy the celebrating …

You gain strength through your hardships

Whatever you learn easily or master effortlessly tends to be forgotten. The lessons you gain through repeated mistakes are what gives you genuine strength. (PL2014.29)

sisters

This is the happy picture that greeted me this morning. My sister out on her evening walk, came across this delightful scene. I just love October, it seems to bring out the light hearted fun in sharing. Neighbours decorate their homes.. streets come alive with creative decorations.. love the smiles!

Let’s find the joy in everything.

Are you looking for things to complain abut? Let’s change our perspective and live a cheerful joyful life. (PL2020.25)

Have a great day everyone!! Be happy!

opportunities

When we travel the roads, we sometimes can step back in time. This was a now closed garden landscape concrete statues, benches etc. shop that is no longer operating. The land around the old structures was still being well maintained, and you can see that it was once vibrant and thriving. There are still reminders on the grounds, I would like to track down the former owner, some of his pieces were unique .. I have not seen them in the big garden centres in the cities.

We were in what would be called cottage country, not off the beaten track … but definitely not in a built up area. The small town was full of charm, and wore it’s history with pride. It was welcoming.. but reserved in a quiet fashion.

In life, we learn that there is always “change” we can’t stop the progress that happens all around us, but in small villages/towns , the feeling of “shared” community stands out. All along the streets, we saw the welcoming signs of “trick or treat” being displayed.

One of the Precepts in PL, #16 All things progress and develop, is so true, I was remined of how precious each moment in is. PL # 17 Grasp what is most essential … I was touched by the welcoming spirit of the streets and byways we explored. People we talked to were friendly and so welcoming, cars passing, drivers would wave a cheerful “hi there” … acknowledging the stranger capturing images of their town. There was pride in the way homes, farms, business were maintained.

Driving home later in the day, we crossed over to the Quebec side .. and drove home through the Pontiac (county) passing the most amazing show of colour on the hills/mountains that surrounded us. And the lakes, waterways … just awesome.. Canada still has a lot of wilderness. By then the sun was saying its goodnight, I couldn’t get pictures, but the views are etched in my heart/memories.

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point.

Appreciate and enjoy each moment, don’t squander life.. .. There is a whole world out there to discover, and often it is in our own “backyard”.

Beachburg Village is in historic Westmeath Township, Renfrew county, It was built along a trail that led to the settlement of Miramichi (now Pembroke)

Bonjour

When something comes to mind, do it right away.

The moment that you notice something is the best time to take care of it. If you react quickly your life will be more efficient. (PL2020.18)

Do you make ghoulish greeting cards for the witching month?

Yes I do…it came over me.. cutting, folding, stickers, pockets, labels, time to be creative.

Its amazing what one finds, when one is looking,

Be someone who can share your joy with others.

Strive to truly understand the feelings of others. by doing so, you will be able to share in other’s happiness. PL2014.18
