Good Morning, of course there is another version, but I’m showing you three, having done so by rotating the canvas. Our problems, challenges in life are not on canvas, we can’t just turn them around and visually inspect what is before us, but believe me, they are as complex and full of surprises as a canvas is to an abstract artist.
How will you see your day today, how will you deal with the many and varied opportunities that will appear before you? Will you even see half of them? I know some of my readers are familiar with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, since I’ve had occasion to talk to you about him before. He was a big name on everyone’s lips when the Beatles first took up with him, and wanted to learn more about his philosophies.
Today, I doubt if you said his name, many would know who you were speaking of. He filled ballrooms, coliseums, everyone one wanted to learn to meditate. It was fashionable. How many meditate today on a daily basis? It is like asking the question, do you pray every day…….. Personal questions, smiles, keep the answer to yourself… but think about it.
We are bombarded daily with the goings on around the world. We all want “change’ in some form or another… How many of you stay away from the word “love” or if you use it, keep it in the “social” general greeting part of your vocabulary. I personally don’t know anyone who has not been touched by “love” in their lives. some have the scars to prove it. (shame the word scar is associated with the word, but there you have it) With love comes pain, one seems to follow the other, like rain follows the sun.. and vice versa.
Make today a different day. Instead of doing the same old thing, be creative and do things to improve your day.

Perceiving equals doing. Each time you notice something, it is a gift from God. don’t miss this opportunity to act.

We are all wonderful in our own way. Although results are important, your effort is what is truly precious

I’m testing out a new feeder. Although after seeing what the racoons can do… I now know why so many of my feeders last year got demolished. Guess I will have to plan for the next winter season, rethink the kind of feeders I will need ..
PS.. last winter I’d arrive to find the feeders looking like a cyclone had gone through. Now I have a better idea of just how they got turned over, ripped apart etc. As cute as these racoons are… those little hands and their cunning I think can do a lot of damage.
The past leads to Now and Now leads to the future. Life is an accumulation of moments. Cherish each One.

The excitement of life comes from expressing your individuality, To live each moment to the fullest, it is important HOW you live each moment. always live with Makoto (sincerity).
It is important to find one’s own happiness, Happiness begins in one’s Self! Practice positive self expression.
Today is the 11th of the month, there will be a 10 a.m. service at the church – Ancestors’ Day ceremony will take place at 10 a.m.
for some reason the camera is acting finicky… half of the pictures taken the other day were not focused properly, I recall having trouble with the adjustments at the time.. of course its when I get home and upload them that I see just how wonky some of them turned out. The blue jays don’t strike me as being crisp… but.. and I do see the little chippy.
You can freely express yourself within the rules. Consider rules as a canvas on which to express your specialty artistically

Turtle rescue – one of the regular hikers .. found a turtle on the paved road.. it was very dry and far from water. He picked it up and carried it to a body of water.. (2 km. further down the road)
Tell yourself “things happen” Even if something is inconvenient, once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!
silly me, really, silly me
a funny face is what I saw
those eyes and silly smile
made me lips twitch into a wicked grin
I felt the sparkle in my eyes.
and right away I knew
a page had turned
a new chapter has begun
even the story line has changed
yet in truth, the goal is the same
Nature has been making a gradual change
I can smell the changes in the air
hear it in the chatter of the birds
and the nattering of the squirrels and chipmunks
for sure, with each passing day
this current season is in its final run
the anticipation of what is to come
is reflected in the silly faces
……………………….the teachings of the PL Precepts and Principles are like throwing the I Ching stixs

Don’t think “I can’t” from the start. Begin by taking the first step. Then you’ll be able to see what comes next and a path will open.

I prayed, I reached out, the Universe provided. the power of prayer is amazing.
This tree in the woodlands on a trail I frequent, stands tall .. towering over the other trees, I can always see it in the distance as I make my way on the trail. I was struck with how it just seems to float in the sky, I’ve taken a picture of it almost every time I am there. This obviously means I have lots of pictures of it against the sky, yet I never seem to share this view when I sit down to visit with you.
Face each moment, each place with a fresh outlook. If you handle a situation with preconceived notions or prejudices, your judgement will be clouded. Take on each situation with a blank slate, as if seeing it for the first time.
