Nov. 1st.

Ever alert and ready for a hug/kisses… meet Fiel… my secret love…. I get to visit with him from time to time. There is nothing like a “dog hug/greeting”

Let’s Pray for World Peace

Always live with prayer, hoping for World Peace. When each and everyone of our prayers is combined, it will contribute to creating peace.

PL2017.1.

The start of another month, the cooler weather has begun to be a daily reminder that we will soon be beginning another “winter”.. you ready?

Have a grand week-end everyone!

Pumpkins bump in the night – who will ring your doorbell tonight… have you prepared for the ghosts and goblins that will roam the streets tonight… moaning and groaning the vampires and zombies will stumble and grumble under the moonlight … while witches and elves will sneak up and thrill on your screams of fright.

In most towns and cities in the North American hemisphere there will be weird and wonderful hauntings happening … this will be a week-end of parties and fun,, Whatever you get up to, enjoy!

Don’t hesitate to show kindness to others.

Do you ever find yourself hesitating to show kindness to someone? It is when you put your thoughts into action that you can show other what is in your heart.

Wednesday

We meet the strangest people these days…. ohhhh .. right…. it is almost Halloween

PL Precept # 2 To live is to express one’s Self.

Have you found yourself wondering when and how you got down the rabbit hole.

PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.

Pl Precept #16 All things progress and develop

There is temptations everywhere we turn…. it is simply the time of year that if you have the need to express your individuality … there is somewhere to go, people to share the wonders of creativity with. No one blinks if you wear brown and black together or your clothes inside out..

Wednesday 29th.

A hasty mind invites accidents

Things will not go smoothly if you neglect what is important now and rush the process in order to get results. Be careful that you aren’t getting ahead of yourself.

PL2012.29

pumpkins

Time for pumpkin pies, ginger breads, when we walk by a bakery the spicey aromas are so inviting. Yesterday I met a man who was gathering heaps of decorations, he has a discarded Xmas tree, he is going to put it up on his front lawn decorated with Halloween and fall decor. Yup, its time for the corn brooms to be taken out and prepared for moonlight flights…

I feel the energy in the shops… in a few places even the Xmas decor is making an appearance.

Today’s calendar

You’re happy, I’m happy

Have the mindset of “good for you, good for me” Express yourself in a way that makes others happy.

PL2021.7

Have a happy and joy filled day. Stay safe.

vendredi

The dragon roars – and all around the town his meaning is clear – stop the infernal negativity – start looking around and find the joy and sunshine. Stop chasing tomorrow or dwelling on what was, this is NOW – open your eyes to what IS –

PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.

PL Precept # 19 Begin once you perceive.

Vendredi

Last night as I tried to quiet my mind, my thoughts drifted in and out through the many corners of that gray matter within my skull. I felt like I was shedding skin (a chapter of my life) like a snake…. I felt myself glide through a mist, and ………… ………… in the stillness of the night, I stepped willingly into the abyss.

Find a good balance between your present and past experiences.

Without forgetting your original intent, continue to develop your own path by also relying on your knowledge and experience.

PL2019.20

A reminder for me during this move.

Be free of your attachments

If you are obsessed with doing something in only a certain way, it narrows your choices. Keep your options open and be flexible.

PL 2017.11

Memories

In looking through pictures I came across a memory from the early days in Second Life. A trip down memory lane is fun … Back then, the virtual world was new to me, I discovered that even the government was taking a look at this new world/technology.

Check out the old avatars… it was so much fun, the creativity was fascinating to me, remember when we built clothes with building tools… mesh had not arrived. It was a different world. The sign when I see it today, wow… it (SL) did offer a ton of opportunity, and those who stayed and grew with the “internet/pixel” technology… have a lot of good memories. Not to mention experiences of a lifetime.

Your feelings of appreciation become real when you express them.

Express your feelings of appreciation by actually saying “Thank You” out loud or by doing something to show how you feel. Not only will the person you are thanking feel good, but you will too, leading to better things in the future. (PL2014.21)

New day

Sometimes when the world just gets too busy – when there is no spaces in the day/night we find ourselves in “overdrive”. It is hard to think clearly when we are bombarded almost 24/7 with chores/tasks/responsibilities. The “Universe” takes over. We get sick, we fall, we have unexpected situations, we have no choice, we have to take a time out.

When was the last time, now think before you answer…. you gave yourself permission to enjoy quality time for YOU.

No, you don’t have to have that cell phone with you 24/7. No, you don’t have to reply or do something “right away” because that is always what was done. When life gets so busy, you feel overwhelmed… it is OK.. to stop, step back.. and take time for YOU. YOU matter, YOU are important, YOU count. Yes the dishes have to be done, but they can wait, they will not disappear, believe me I know.. No one sneaks into your home to do them for you.

Its cold out, its raining… the mosquitos are bad… blah blah blah. yesterday, I toured a new nursery (to me) a huge indoor greenhouse, tons of happy vegetation, lush green leaves, interesting cacti, in the outdoors area, I got to enjoy Japanese maples, Honey locust trees, evergreens in all shapes and sizes. The herb section was a paradise of delightful scented air. When there is a will there is a way.

Today it is a long sleeve sweater day. We had steamy hot … take it all off .. weather not long ago… This is what life is all about. From one day to the next, it is a new beginning.

In PL, #1 Precept is. Life is Art…. # 2 To live is to express One’s Self. # 7 Everything exists in relativity. # 16 All things progress and develop. # 18 EACH MOMENT IS A TURNING POINT

It all begins with your determination.

Things begin to happen the moment you decide “Let’s do it” It all has to do with your attitude.

Please make time for YOU.

Tuesday

The other day I found a temple ruin in the jungle. I immediately thought, wow, what a fun find. It took me back (memories) to the days (years and years ago) when I wanted more than anything to visit Easter Island to explore the ruins and the huge statues that are all over the island. I wonder today how many people actually know of Easter Island, or its history.

In putting up the ruins I found I needed to contact the creator of this build. What a delightful person, I took the time to let her know how much I enjoy her creations, her reaction made my day. It is so easy to take our encounters with others for granted, say what we have to say and move on. I am constantly being reminded how fortunate I am to have discovered a world where I get to interact with people from all over the world and share a smile ( happy moment)

The ruins have an area where people gathered, there is a place to sit where I could overlook the skies around me and the worlds below. In life, I have to live with both feet planted firmly on the ground, landscapes need taming, home needs to be kept in repair, and its important to balance life’s demands on personal needs. *** never give up on your dreams/creativity.***

Don’t give up! Stick with it, as many times as it takes.

Sometimes you want to just throw in the towel and say, “I give up” But, that’s just the time to dig deep and push through. Your sincere effort will invite a good outcome.

I was also reminded yesterday on how special friends how… I got to catch up with a friend I have not seen in awhile, she reads this blog on a regular basis. Guess what! she and hubby go to car swap meets on a regular basis, and yes there are still swap meets where people get together to show off their hobby cars…exchange, trade etc. parts… thanks for the information and the great big smile you brought into my day.

(refer back to past a few days back)
