How many of us are spending time waiting. In my area, it seems that everyone around in different provinces or States have had their first, even some have had both of their shots. Meanwhile, we wait.
I’ve tried reading, I was as you know going out and feeding the birds, but now with the change in the weather, they are doing just fine.
Time is spent thinking, wondering when there will be a more balanced approach to how we spend our time, even catching up with friends in person, instead of by phone or virtual calls.
Even having the shot will not mean life will just return to “what it was” No, there will still be the need for masks and social distancing. Today there was segment on the radio about how the animals, especially dogs will adapt (not) when their humans return to working outside the home.
Now more than ever, we need to live being aware of the good, positive “things” “happenings” in our lives. The quote I posted yesterday, resonated with me then and even more today.
A thankful heart leads to happiness. When we really pay attention, we are surrounded by many things we can be thankful for, the society we live in, the kindness shown to us by others. You will be able to find true happiness when you can see and appreciate things.

Look forward to what’s ahead. There is no use brooding over the past. Always try to begin each day anew with a fresh outlook.
Express your appreciation with enthusiasm. Appreciation is the driving force for progress and development.

Change your mind, thinking “it will be alright” Do the best you can without being overly attached.

Be calm, be kind without compromising. Hesitating to share our true feelings hurts not only ourselves but others. While respecting the other person’s feelings, say what you need to say.
It’s Okay! God is watching over you. Things turn out for the best. Don’t be captured by momentary troubles but continue doing everything with sincerity.
Make today a different day. Instead of doing the same old thing, be creative and do things to improve your day.

I’ve had a personal encounter with each of the above birds. They have a way of looking at you that is very interesting, they can be looking straight ahead, at least their head is facing forward, but I swear that they are looking right at me. I’ve had many an early morning conversation with one woodpecker or another. I realized today, that I will miss them when I am not spending as much time in the woods. It was an interesting observation. I’ve come to know so many different birds over the last year.. … there is something special about how the woodpecker relates… it doesn’t take flight like other birds do…. when an intruder comes along. Most will take off to a higher place where they can watch and scoop out the situation… The woodpecker, will often just simply move around the tree away from immediate view, and take in the stranger(s) without too much of a fuss. The ones that came regularly when I was around, almost ignored my presence.. they were not concerned by my activities. In fact, there is one at Mer Bleue that makes me wait when I want to refill the feeder till he/she is ready to move. Mais oui, but yes, I wait… he/she was there first! =^_^=
It is mid week everyone…
PL Precept #16 All things progress and develop.
Smile… show the world you care.. spread happiness whenever and where-ever you can.
What is “normal” is different for each individual. – everyone has a different way of thinking and doing. It’s important to understand others’ feelings.

Preceptos de PL . #1 Vida es Arte PL Precept #1 Life is Art.
When someone we love – travels into the Universe – on wings of air so light, only his/her memory remains
I recently learned that a special friend, was dealt a blow that sent him reeling. His life was turned upside down with the news that his son (42 years old) was no longer of this world. I can only imagine that moment of reality that he, his wife and family had to live, was not only crushing but life changing.
Myself I learned of this news only the other day, I happened on him as he wandered on the street by his home, lost, fighting for control of his feelings. With each word that fell from his lips, I felt the raw pain, saw the fight within himself for control. I was walking one of my dogs, she became very quiet, attentive and with me, she quietly gave all her attention to his words, feelings and outpouring.
It is important in this lifetime of ours to never take for granted that everything will still be the same tomorrow. Life as we know it is fragile.
PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.
There are no words to express the sadness I feel when I think of my friend and his family, and no words that I can or could offer that would ease the pain of their loss.
What I can do .. is ask each and everyone of you who can, and would, to say a prayer for all in the world who are dealing with such pain and loss… Grief has to be lived… and each and every one of us, has had to deal with sorrow at some time in our lives. Prayer is a powerful tool. let us take a few minutes in our day, to say a prayer for all the families in this world who at this time are dealing with a situation that is difficult and hard to bare.. but live with it they must, till time helps ease the pain.
Today in the little bird garden, I asked each bird to carry a prayer into the skies.. that would carry love and healing energy to all who need it.
The temperature has dropped. Last week we hit record highs, this deep drop in the temperature has made the house feel cold Brrrr. With the change in the weather, we’re seeing new birds in the area… What I have noticed is that last week when the weather was balmy, there were birds signing in the front and backyard. Since yesterday when the temperature began to dip, no singing. This morning all is silent too. Wonder what it will be like when I get out to Dewberry and Mer Bleue.
took this back in 2016, I have better cameras now.. but won’t find this location nor will the birds be sitting there! =^_^=
Perceiving equals doing – Each time you notice something, it is a gift from God. Don’t miss this opportunity to act.

Have a great start to the day. Here it is clear and bright… …. no matter the weather, make the world around you shine!

It is interesting as I look back at pictures I took years ago, (going through old files) I can see the difference in my method of taking a picture and the differences between the various cameras I had. One thing is consistent, they all bring back a “memory” of another time and place.
