Thursday

The snow is melting, yesterday I took the shovel to the big dump of snow on my deck it had been almost shoulder high, … the milder temperatures had me facing a pile of snow only about knee deep. I did clear some, I was (smart) enough to stop when I got tired. If it is mild again today and there is a bit of rain, it should rid me of what is left on the deck. I can put out my lay back and sun chair. Early spring is the best… too cool for most to be out, but I love it, especially when the sun is out. Yesterday my companion was the male cardinal, he was singing away… he is a romantic, he courts his female.=^_^=

Live today filled with enthusiasm

Life is an accumulation of the efforts you make, day by day. Live keeping in mind that “today” only comes once and live your precious life to the fullest.

PL2015.20

Happy first day of Spring.

Mardi

Make today a “give back day”

We can live our daily lives owing to our ancestors, our elders, and the work of our predecessors. Above all kindness for others is the best way to give back.

life

Sometimes it feels like the whole world is happening around you. What is the saying, dance like there is no one watching. Music is a medium that brings people together, no matter what has been going on in your life, what drama has played out during the day, when you can sit back and just relax with the magic of a melody/song, let your mind and thoughts disappear into a world that transports you to another level of awareness. Mind altering. If you are lucky enough to be able to hear live music, and share that experience with others… it is a musical wonderland. Positive energy! Personal journey!

Past, Present and Future, always remember to be sincere and honest. At ay 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. (PL2019.6)

Feelings

Feelings are much like waves, we can’t stop them from coming, but, we can choose which ones to surf

Always live with hope in your heart.

With a clear image in mind, move forward with enthusiasm. Your dreams will surely come true with perseverance.

Pileated

Pileated Woodpecker .. got to spend a quick moment with one yesterday morning. We startled each other, altho’ he/she was greeting me with a knock, knock, knock inches away from me. We came face to face (he/she was at my face level)

Male on the left – female on the right. I will post a link at the end of this post if you want to know more about this beautiful bird. It is about the size of a crow. (they mate for life)

A single moment is a life time

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

Understand Impermanence

Snow

These were taken yesterday, it was balmy, mind you I was bundled up with a very long coat, and Bogs* (boots that are made for Canadian winters, keep the feet warm to -058 degrees.) .. and layered “to the nines”. To do the Bog on days when the winds are whipping over the landscape, can be very refreshing. I enjoyed my walk, there was no one else around, There is something to be said about sitting on a bench in the middle of a snow covered Bog. The birds were huddled in the woods fluffed up, keeping warm. The one squirrel I saw was nuzzled in against a tree in the elbow of another branch. He had no interest in leaving the sheltered nook for a peanut.

When I got to the part of the Bog that leads back to terra firma, the wooden boardwalk that crosses over water, was snow covered, the winds had picked up enough that the dried stalks from the water plants .. whispered and sang as the spirited winds ran through them. Beautiful and serene.

The walk provided me with time for quiet reflection, any sadness was carried away by the breeze. Its cool caress as it gently brushed my cheeks, wiped the silent tears. Nature embraced me with the comfort I needed.

Your smile is what is needed

A smile invites happiness and cheer and is essential to energize others as well as yourself.
