Friday

Yesterday you saw some of the buildings that caught my eye on the way to Ompah. Here you are seeing some of land I hiked along. To get to the water, I had to go down a steep ravine to a level area .. where I was looking down at the water… it was so inviting that when I came to a wooden set of steps, I ventured down to the water’s edge.

Lesson I learned… If you go down, you have to come back up! Focused on getting pictures, I had not taken into account to get to where I was I had walked down a steep incline, I found the steps while I was walking the grounds searching for another path leading back up to the area where my friend waited in the car. !!

Look at the rocks, the beautiful old fence, weathered and worn but still standing Yes I likely overdid, I didn’t have my walking sticks with me and because the area hosted art shows in the summer weather, the land was cleared of fallen branches and the like. BUT it was gorgeous .. life was good, life was vibrant, the air clear, getting colder yes (we were heading for an evening of snow and dropping temperatures) I WAS HAPPY, JOYFUL AND FULL OF LOVE… fresh air, the silence of open country (no city sounds) Yes, my body had a lot to say about the walking/hiking and the constant in and out of the car… BUT it was worth it. I think we have all had such experiences. If we are going to be here (on earth) we should appreciate and enjoy as much as we can. Peace on earth, begins at home and in our hearts.

Enjoy what happens. People who can enjoy anything happening to them receive wisdom for the next step. Try to work on things without being overly concerned.

Saying thank you

Thank you… again and again… It feels great if someone tells you,, “thank you” even many times. By repeating this , become a person who comes up with the word “thank you” naturally.
Perfect Liberty 2023.8

Tell yourself “things happen” Even if something is inconvenient once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

day of Peace

Change…. we are still in the fall, this snow will likely disappear before the hard core snow arrives, It was so peaceful in the parking lot when I took this picture, Temperatures had dropped, there was no one else around, I was able to take my time and enjoy the moment,

In PL we live with the philosophy that if everyone could learn to express themselves artistically, all the wars around the world would cease, leading to a peaceful society, We believe that in respecting one another and working for each other’s happiness, world peace could be achieved. PL Precept #14 World peace is everything.

Today in PL we have a ceremony (the 1st of each month) called the Day of Peace. it will be held at 10:00 a.m. EST.

Each Person’s peace leads to world peace. First of all, you have to be happy. That happiness will spread and be the foundation of World Peace.

dreaming

High above the tree tops is where I want to be… woke up to snow.. on the ground and still falling,

Cheris this moment, this time this day. People keep growing as time goes on. Cherish your self-expressions.

life

.life is fleeting – it happens – like the moment that comes and goes – there is only now.

Get things started with Grit. If you work on things in daily life with the attitude of “let’s do it” you will feel a power to accomplish things. People around you will rely on you.

Makoto

It has been raining these past few mornings, still the little ones come for breakfast, Photographer Jim Robertson was out the other morning, and captured these two regulars. (https://adobe.ly/3QB6AOc ) It never fails to amaze me how sweet and friendly the little critters are. The Chipmunks can be hard to see as they gather up the corn, nuts, seeds amongst the leaves. The nuthatch can be bold… but usually behaves when strangers come by,

Put Makoto even into small things, Don’t let things go with “oh well” you will have a different outcome if you put Makoto (sincerity) in all you do.

left-right

You can travel along .. enjoying the view, if you look left, you get a beautiful view of the fall colours, if you look to the right.. a totally different sight meets your eyes. In life we are faced with such situations often in one day … Sometimes it is verbal not visual, but it comes down to choice. How do you cope or accept the opportunities that come your way,.

“When you get stuck, take a step back.. When you are able to see things objectively, your viewpoint will change and you will receive new wisdom,”

“The turning point is now. Life is a sequence of moments called now. You have the key to turn yourself around,”

Oct fun

Sometimes we have to go into the night and dance .. ” no one is watching” and if they are, who cares!… Let the moment happen, enjoy the freedom of movement and space.

Yesterday I finally got to have my BD lunch with my niece and nephew. It was the last day of the Moon Festival offerings at our favourite buffet. 3/4 of this plate is filled with shrimps cooked in different ways, the green beans you can see, I got a couple of slices of ginger beef, and same with the salt and pepper pork. The only noodle is the decoration you see on top, Notice I did take a piece of corn on the cob that sits in a lovely butter sauce in the heating trays.

I know. Last bd meal for this year!!!

Being asked for a favor is a chance. When someone asks for a favor from you,, this is a chance for you to help others. Face the chance proactively,

a yummy treat!

When awareness dawns

The beauty of an early morning discovery

When you hear the sound of life rushing past you, while you are standing still…

Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest, and start your day with excitement

Gratitude

Years ago now I was given a copy of You can Heal your life by Louise L. Hay…. it took me awhile, but one day I picked the book up and opened it.. page 123… chapter 14 … the Body…” I believe we create every so-called “illness” in our body. The body, like everything else in life is a mirror of our inner thoughts and beliefs. The body is always talking to us, if we will only take the time to listen. Every cell within your body responds to every single thought you think and every word you speak”

Well.. what a surprise, the Universe is always a step ahead of us. I needed to hear those words, it is also my thinking and what I believe.. but having a total stranger to me, mirror that message back to me.. made me aware that I had gotten lazy, I was letting the world around me influence MY personal well being.

In PL… Precept 15 All is a mirror.

Today being the 21st. we will be holding the Day of Appreciation service (formerly Thanksgiving) we do this every month on the 21st. Today there will be a service at 10 a.m. and one at 7 pm.

Be Grateful for everything. If you see everything as material to express gratitude, you can encounter a number of opportunities you are grateful for.
