musing

When we experience loss – we learn to survive

the sun keeps shining, night follows day

We wake one morning and realize, we’ve outgrown who we used to be.

We choose silence from noise – somewhere in between nothing makes sense – but we are learning

We are no longer who we were – our season is changing

In the solitude of our silence – something new is born.

Love from a place of depth

Life unfolds in its own rhythm

Letting go, means we care enough, trust and have faith in being true to Self. There is great strength in Quiet.

Yesterday with help from the two “boyz” we got a lot done. Paul is an organizer extraordinaire … Steve has the ability to put things together, & make something work, handyman beyond compare. the two have years of experience working together… we got shelves put up, the cat walk, and a zillion other “projects” I can look around and feel a sense of having arrived. In fact, I slept in today till near 7…. me! who has been up and out of the house by 6 most days… was rather taken back when I saw the time.

Letting Go…. is so much harder than one thinks.. but I am working hard at saying, “No, I’ll pass it on!” The trick today will be getting “stuff” into the car to drop off at a “charity”.

It is only natural that you are different from others. Each of us has our own way of thinking and our own individual lifestyle. That’s what makes life interesting.

Have a wonderful Friday, keep smiling.

Slow Down

Put your heart into your words.

Do you tend too speak in just a matter-of-fact tone? It is important to put your heart into your words.

Blessings of the day!

Tuesday

Moving is not an easy project. I realize that it all was so much easier when I was younger.(stamina) Going from an house to an apartment has a lot of pluses … there are a few challenges tho’. i.e. when you come home with a full car, you have to get all your packages etc. to your apartment. I’m lucky I found, and was able to rent a lovely space on the ground floor, with 11 ft. ceilings. Still need to get from parking garage to apt.

Still in the middle of boxes that need unpacking, and trying to find items that I know I have .. but don’t know where they are. This morning I needed to go out.. try as I might, I was unable to find a toothbrush in all the “stuff” I looked through. Going back to the house, I was shocked at the mess… AAaaaghhhh.. good thing closing date isn’t for a few weeks…

One step at a time right….

Sunday

Flowers for Dad

A busy person is someone who others can count on.

The fact that you are busy means that you are needed by others. In a way, its a sign of how much they trust and rely on you.

Doors

Which doorway will you visit?

Be Cheerful and Carefree. Without putting on airs, or trying to be someone you aren’t, just be yourself. This will give people a good impression of you and things will move forward in the right direction PL2019.12

It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well. Rene Descartes 1637

choices

When one is in the middle of a move, not much thought is given to meals… I just grab what is easy, and chomp it down. Not good when you are diabetic. Not good at any time really. Last night I had a reminder that neglecting one’s intake of water, & eating properly at decent intervals is not good! But then, Like magic …I heard an echo… a voice of calm that centered me… lulling the restless mind into a calm zone.. I fell asleep and actually slept till almost 3. There is so much to think about and do, I did manage to get back to sleep and wake up feeling rested.

Face challenging situations with positive determination

When you encounter difficulties, boldly take measures to overcome them. By creatively find solutions, you will feel the joy in tackling any situation.

PL2019.13

In life there are always choices… it helps to focus on what is happening in that moment, what you are thinking an how you feel, before making decisions that will impact you going forward.

Cheers everyone,. till soon.

the little house

I want to thank Eliza for sending me this link… I sure needed it this morning… moving is so hard in many ways I know it is a new beginning… but …. It is a challenge…

I will get through this… I have wonderful friends who have been so thoughtful and helpful. I am blessed to have them in my life. There is an expression, “WE PICK OUR FRIENDS, etc.”

Take care of things as they come to your attention.

When something comes to mind, it is a sign from God. Take care of whatever comes to mind right away.

Have a wonderful day everyone…

what ?

What a hoot!! Let’s see if you can tell which house is mine ?

Ok everyone now knows I’ve put the house up for sale… the once quiet residential area I fell in love with, has become a very different place, with a totally unfamiliar vibe. The real-estate agents listed it yesterday, there is now a sign in my front yard. Thanks Bonnie for looking up the listing for me.

I have had many encouraging messages, for that I thank you, it has been a mouthful for sure. There are a lot of memories associated with the place. When we bought, the property was bare of vegetation. There is a cherry tree that gives an abundance of cherries every spring, and in early spring there is a Saskatoon Berry tree with amazing berries. The birds, love the trees and visiting the property. I will miss them. There is even a rabbit that lives somewhere in the neighbourhood, spends a lot of time in my front yard. (wonder why)

In the back I have a maturing magnolia, maple, evergreen, and an assortment of other small trees and vegetation… In my new place (apartment) I have an outdoor patio, with a hedge .. that will be my greenery. All things must evolve and we must embrace new beginnings.

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.
