moments in time ..
they can be so fleeting.
once lived, the moment is gone
there is no going back.
make each moment count. Q
Everything we have today, was built on the hard work of our ancestors..
Always remember to be humble and thankful. Every moment you live, every experience you have, becomes part of who you are. Be yourself, no one can do it better than you.

Moderation, small helpings. Sample a little bit of everything. These are the secrets of happiness and good health. Julia Child
Wow.. a barely in focus picture of a wall with ice. Yet this is what struck me yesterday as thought-provoking. I was going through a McDonald’s drive through. When the bigger of the lot had me reaching for the camera. Of course I had one eye on the line ahead of me .. while fumbling for the iPhone in my cluttered backpack.
Can you see the little eye and the bird’s head peeking out at the bottom… Yesterday the whole ice sculpture made me smile and gasp in pleasure.. (I know, I don’t get out much)
All this to say, “to each his/her own” we are all so different and unique from one another. Truth be told, often even to ourselves.
I even had the ice on the left, wanting to be with the others that hung in a group further along the wall. imagination is wonderful.
You have all heard me say time and time again, I like being “happy”
A lesson I am learning especially since my husband passed away, is that happiness is where you find it, and is at times redefining itself. That joy of turning to your partner and without a word, you both know, one of you just had a burst of “happy” or an inspiration, is gone, only the memory remains. Time, love and faith, will heal these moments, but for now…. What is, is.

Day 3, PL Calendar
Instead of worrying o something about it
It doesn’t help to over think situations such as, “what if this happens/” or “things might end up that way” Instead be proactive and change how you see and do things in each situation.
In life if we never attempt something new, we will never know the full extent of our capabilities. Accomplishments come in many sizes and guises. Doing is healthy, walking with intent, getting out, exploring, discovering new possibilities. It is a wonderful and amazing world we live in, human behaviour is what puts a damper on things/situations.
” I never hit a shot, not even in practice, without having a very sharp in focus picture of it in my head” Jack Nicklaus (golfer)

Good morning, very early morning =^_^= Bom dia -domingo 17th,
At one time I would write, a pen always near by I would let the words flow, then sit back and discover where or what my thought process was up to. Now I am more likely to pick up a tube of paint, bottle of ink, or some other visual media that will allow my creativity to express in abstract. Today I visited my favourite fine arts store and explored the new offerings that were set out to tempt and tease.
Interestingly what I came away with, was not what I had gone in to look at. With spring around the corner, I was looking to add to my neon, spring collection. Colours that would call out the fresh mint of new leaves, or the soft bunny colours and little baby chicks. But no, I was drawn instead to colours that were metallic, pearlized and in the realm of steam punk maybe?
In playing with the colours when I got home, I thrilled at the texture and fluidity of the paints. So happy with my choices that I didn’t get to play with all of them, because, the testing, turned out to excite me just the way it was.
Midnight is the witching hour (or so they say) I put on YouTube and listened to old favourites, Vince Gill, Alan Jackson, and looked again at the pages in my Art Journal, even the sheet of mixed media that I started on, looks too good to mess with. Wonder how I will feel when I wake up and look at it again. =^_^= Meanwhile.. you got it.. I am happy in the moment.

Happy 15th. day of February..
Live with firm determination, thinking that “this will turn out for the best”
Everything in this world progresses and develop. Always be positive, knowing that everything will turn out for the best.
Life goes on. Small discoveries. Don’t laugh, I see this product every time I visit the Asian grocery store. When I walk by, always, someone is taking a jar. The other day, I decided to try the smallest jar. It is ridiculously good, Try something new today!!
Have a wonderful day, dearest readers and friends, and for that matter, everyone else who lands on this page. Oyashikiri

Day 8 PL Calendar
First, accept everything
Life is filled with moments, sometimes happy and at times inconvenient. It is important to first accept every situation as it occurs and try to accept and understand it for what it is.

PL Calendar day 5 Start by thinking “this is interesting!”
Even when you are dealing with a difficult situation, it is important to find something interesting about it. From there you will be blessed with wisdom and something new will come out of it.
“True Religion is real living, living with all one’s soul, with all one’s goodness an righteousness” Albert Einstein
It is very quiet all around me when there is a deep blanket of snow around every inch of ground that surrounds my home. The emergency vehicles are quiet this morning, the main roads and streets must be decent. Commuters who have deadlines must be either there or almost at their destinations.. The quiet of the moment is refreshing. Yesterday I had a sick day, my body dictated that the end of the lunar year should be one of contemplation and rest. I listened.
Today is a new beginning. In PL, Precept #1 Life is Art, I really and truly believe this, each day is a new canvas, where the possibilities are endless. For you my precious and delightful friends, readers and “family” may the Universe enrich your lives with the delight of new adventure, successful results and endless opportunities for your dreams/ wishes. And, the blessing of wisdom in the knowledge that love is with you, now and always.

Good morning everyone, Bom Dia!!!
Stash, supplies, whatever we call our treasures that we collect because we are attracted to them or find a simple pleasure in adding them to our collection. Some have a small stash, and others of us, have hmmm let us say, a large variety of collections that we will do something with “some day” or eventually. =^_^=
Having spent the last year or so, in de-clutter mode, I can now more readily see what I have, and what I have ended up I find really interesting. When I came home yesterday from another adventure through a snow blown countryside. I saw that I had a lot of products from suppliers that were rich, vibrant and totally statement artists.
Even though the weather to most was a real “drag” if they were on the road trying to get somewhere, but for me and my charming companion, it was an “afternoon stroll” Leisurely and fun, missing were the tea cups and small sandwiches. Instead we rolled safely along in our cozy environment and caught up. Part of the drive we were escorted by two huge city trucks clearing the highway in front of us.
The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience. Eleanor Roosevelt
