The heat, the heat.. the heat…Aghhh. needed to cool down. Heat is one thing, in this area we have an abundance of humidity to go with it… The past few days it has been cloying.
Blue Jay – NumOttawa
I am reminded of how colourful and joyful the Blue Jays look when they fly in during winter for their share of the bounty at feeders.
With one thought, “the world” will change. Changing your way of thinking will make a difference on how you perceive the world.

My mantra for the day – I will go forward with a determination to stay positive and focused on living each moment to the fullest.
AND I will make the time to sit and reflect on all that I have to be thankful for.
Before I go on and cover this up or add to it, I want to share with you what eye shadow from the dollar store and nail polish can do. (mixed media abstract)
We can travel or visit the same places, see the same things, i.e. areas of a physical space, but never is it ever the same as the last time we visited. Wait for it…. because nothing stays the same. =^_^= the only constant in life is change.
Today at Chapman Mills, the leaves have already begun to change, small changes, here and there, but change they are.
Face each moment, each place with a fresh outlook. I you handle a situation with preconceived notions or prejudices, your judgment will be clouded. Take on each situation with a blank slate, as if seeing it for the first time.

As an artist, this is an important reminder for me. There is an artist in all of us. Face each situation, opportunity, challenge with a creative mind. =^_^=

identified the birds I have been seeing, Northern Flicker .. (thanks to la belle Bon)
With the water gently lapping against the ship, the moonlight dancing across your half naked body there is a lull in the passing of time. Nowhere to go, nowhere to be…, what reason is there for this moment, none… none at all.
Except with the daylight … comes reality The boat is still docked, the waves still nudge gently against her, we are not lying onboard, at least not in the state of undress
what is real and what is the dream both are realities for they exist in our heads .. our hearts Always we will see the world through our own personal lens
The beauty is… no one .. can take away our personal realities, so if I love you with all of my heart, all of me….. then nothing and no one can take that away from me.
I will always love you. no more, no less…. today is now … Now is, always and forever….
No more.. no less….
There are always choices in life. We are always faced with a bridge.. doesn’t matter what side of the bridge you are on.. there is always a middle, top and bottom. They all come together in US.
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.
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 ..
will see if this bicycle feeder will hold up…=^_^=
Till soon
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.

these bandits came as soon as the sunflower seeds hit the ground
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
