Whether you are happy or not depends on your perspective, The things that happen in your life are neither good nor bad, It is your perspective that determines whether the outcome is good or unfortunate, PL 2015.17
It’s important to be assertive, but maintaining harmony is just as important, Say what is on your mind clearly, but don’t be overly attached to your views. Respect the points of view of others and always seek to find a happy medium.
Always live “for the sake of others and society” Be thankful to society for all that you have and make a firm decision to be a person who can contribute to people and society This state of mind will provide you with endless enthusiasm
Fresh fallen snow, always gives a picture of “new beginnings” – maybe not the best weather to drive in, but so beautiful visually – I am so blessed to have this vista within a short drive from where I live. When I arrived this morning (when picture was taken) the birds were so happy to see I had not been deterred from visiting. No chipmunks turned up, but the little brown and red squirrels bounced through the wet snow to come greet me. What a sight when breakfast was served, the blue jays were first to arrive with their loud enthusiastic cheers they sent calls out to all their ‘buddies”
New beginnings. The Ottawa church of PL (Perfect Liberty) has begun a new chapter, Please join us this Sunday to meet the new minister Rev Hiroki Matuski and his lovely wife Yoshiko. Hirok Sensi and Yoshiko look forward to meeting you. There will be coffee/tea (light refreshment) after the Gathering Service.
When taking on a task, start fresh without being biased or jumping to conclusions. When your thinking is too rigid you will be unable to deal with ideas in a flexible and constructive way, Always strive to look at thing with a fresh mind.
Everything that happens to you is material for growth Approach everything with firm belief that, “it will turn out for the best.” Anything can be used as material for progress and development.

Mother Nature hit her funny bone, Our new minister and his wife arrived from Japan the last week in March. Canada can have “interesting” winters, this last one for us was on the mild side, with less snow than we have had in years.. So guess what was dropped on us yesterday and into today. Some areas have received more snow than others. And add to the mix, the temperature has been dropping, today will be colder than yesterday. This is all ok for seasoned Canadians.. imagine the joy of experiencing this cold blustery weather hiccup .. if you are new…and didn’t come with a winter wardrobe.
Pl Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning Point.
A fresh snow fall is refreshing and beautiful. When we are going through one of our very hot humid summer days, we can recall the invigorating freshness of a blast of winter. Love living in a country with 4 distinct seasons!!
Your surroundings reflect your state of mind. Everything that appears before you is a reflection of your state of mind. If you work to improve your mind and actions, then what appears in the mirror will also be well balanced.

I did this wood burning experiment around the time I found the old barn and doors in the other pictures. i know I posted using this picture yesterday but wanted to include it for today’s Thursday Door feature. For more pictures of doors, please visit Dan’s No Facilities site https://nofacilities.com/2024/03/28/fish-fry-doors/
Take on any task with earnest enthusiasm and it will become interesting. No matter what it is, if you really get into it, you will be able to find joy in doing it. The important point is to put your whole heart into what you are doing.

Every morning I visit this tree.. and each morning I see signs it is enjoying the balmy weather and the brighter sunshine, The other morning it was full of chattering birds, The happy chatter filled the air with enthusiasm and brought smiles to everyone around.
Bom final de semana pra todo nos. Bom dia amiga qurida.
Hola, buenos dias – Have a great day.
Attendez un instant. Wait does it matter what language ….NO… smile.. greet the day knowing it is going to be a GREAT Day! Why? Because, you are part of it… Share your smile.. pass the good cheer along! Smiles are non verbal, and speak volumes.
Hello. look what a friend introduced me to! We were talking about conservation areas, our dogs, just catching up … When I was shown a picture of the family dogs, I noticed her backyard was different from what I know to be backyards here where I live. Oh, yes, we are in the “high desert” she said, that is the Garden of the Gods you see in the background. Then she sent me the link to the web page for the Nature Park. Colorado! I have seen pictures in the past taken when other friends have holidayed there… however.. let me tell you… I book marked the page, and I will be going back to look at the stunning vistas again.
How easy it is to forget that there is so much in life to be explore and experienced. I would love to experience actually seeing those beautiful animals myself. Or taking in what looks like crisp dry air. I love my four seasons here in Canada, but that park sure looks like it would be fascinating to explore.
Treasure those fleeting inspirations. The time to seize an opportunity is when you first notice it. Good timing is crucial to working efficiently.
