weather

It is hot, it is humid, not a breeze to be had, it is the kind of day you want to conserve your energy. If possible it was the kind of day to stay inside and catch up on activities that will allow you to be comfortable .. I had visitors today, in both cases, they brought food…. I didn’t have to cook… it was wonderful…. I had made a soup… my Dad was very firm, when I found it hot, his remedy was a nice bowl of hot soup. That or on the odd occasion I was allowed a cup of tea. Being the eldest I was not allowed coffee, tea, sweets, etc. To this day I am grateful, I have never had a sweet tooth, or a desire to drink pop, soft drinks, or alcohol beverages. So, when I got in from getting gas and a few necessities, I made a chicken soup with pure bone broth, veggies, and beans. Old fashion remedy, but it worked, What have you been doing to cope with the heat we have had this summer

Start today with a fresh outlook

Even though people and situations may look the same, they are constantly changing. Start each day with a fresh mind.

tomorrow I will have been in the apartment one month – the only constant in life is change.

Does anyone recognize this mask? What came to mind for me was a crow/raven – bird spirit? (West coast?)(totem pole)

You can only change yourself

Before you start telling people how they should do things. think of how you can be more flexible.

Willingly take on tasks that are behind the scenes

Be the one who is able to proactively take on the troublesome tasks that no one likes and for which they are not recognized. By doing so,, you will be filled with a genuine feeling of accomplishment.

Yesterday came and went, it can not be recalled or relived. What was, was. So often I find myself with an idea … and I don’t write it down. “I’ll remember” I tell myself.. but I don’t. Oh I recall I had this brilliant idea, but what the idea was…. ah… well… let’s just say, it may or may not surface again.

Discover the joy of transforming yourself

When you realize how much you have changed for the better, it fills you with true happiness. Strive each day to improve yourself.

tudo bem?

At times we all pretend

Letting dreams and memories

run wild in our imaginations

Then happens the day

When “pretend” becomes reality

So real you know what it is

to be alive

Reality is escape

From the bondage of freedom

Q


Good relationships begin by greeting each other.

Acts of respect and courtesy are reflections of how much we value others. Make it a point to be the first to greet your family, people at work and around the neighbourhood.

Thursday

Saying goodbye to the door that opened for me for the last 27 years. Now I am saying goodbye. It is old and worn, but it was “home”…. the handle my husband installed so my aging Mother could get up and down the steps safely… the curtains I found to hang that reminded me of my trips to Japan. The railing that once was sturdy and strong is now slightly wonky and in need of repair… I refused to change the door over the years, inside I bolted it with make shift security blots/chains… it gave me a sense of security…. but really the old door was ready to retire. What does the future hold in store for it.. who knows.. I have to move on. Saying goodbye to the house has been easy, because I know that the time has come for me to turn a page.. but leaving the door… that breaks my heart.

I now live in a new upscale apartment complex with big windows, elevators and steel frame doors… it will never welcome me home like the “old” wooden door. Now I have a concierge and many new “things” to explore and get to know… but you all know… that this “old” door, will never be forgotten.

NO.. I never wanted it painted…. I loved it just the way it was.

Always express your true self with honesty and integrity

We feel a deep sense of joy when we are able to express our true selves. Always focus on your true feelings and express yourself honestly.

Wednesday

Needed a break from the heat, humidity and at times rain.

Every day is a new beginning… I remember taking this picture, the day was cool, crisp and invigorating. Hard to find that these days, it has been scorching.. uncomfortable and heavy.

In the PL Prayer, there is a passage “ all humankind who are brought to birth in accord with your Creation are endowed with individuality and intelligence to live an artistic life, for the sake of the world and for the sake of humankind.”

Chill everyone… till soon.

LOL it does look slanted, but when I go and look at it … it looks fine, could have been the angle when I took it… anyway, the minerals are safe away from furry paws.

The Brats play cowboys or space cadets not sure, all I know is at some time in the wee hours they go into frisky mode and use the bed as a trampoline to dive over to the bureau where their cat tower is. Thankfully I’m in a dead sleep.. and barely wake now that I know what is happening, The first night or two.. it was a bit un-nerving

No one can take away the joy you get from putting your whole heart into something,

The joy your feel when you’ve put your all into something its yours alone, Nobody can take that away from you,

Have a good day everyone. happy start to a new week.
