Do you see them? even one of them? no.. neither did I.. There were 4 of them bold as brass crossing the road, I saw them plain as day… slowed and stopped. reached for my camera, turned off the car, quietly opened the door, Poof, the little beggars scurried faster and disappeared. I searched all along the area they disappeared.. Nothing. Before the snow falls I hope to capture at least one to show you.
Listen carefully and speak clearly. A good relationship starts from truly understanding each other.
I wore my new camera .. it can’t be worn like the older camera, this one is too big to keep on while I’m driving, so it was on and off. By the end of my adventure, I was glad to bring it in to charge and let it rest. It was heavy!!! I’ll get used to it.
Be a person who can say “I like it!” find what moves you the most and express your appreciation.

Lesson from Japan translated –Execution comes first – Even if you want to make a good work, you can’t make a work just by feeling it. It is a prerequisite to do your best in the way. Do whatever you notice immediately (realize) do it right away.
Woke up to rain today, but the birds still calling… have a great day whatever your plans…
Till soon
** All along hwys 307 and 309 are lakes… lots of lakes..
top 3 pictures are from lac Lemay the park behind the Lac Lemay Casino in Hull/Gatineau Quebec
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Quebec has to be the most beautiful Province in Canada. BC is great and so is Nfld. but Quebec has this rustic charm that never fails to enchant. AND because the further inland you go in the Province, the more you experience the cultural difference, the feeling of being “elsewhere” (other than in English Canada) is front and centre. If you ever want a special experience, visit “la Belle Province” – not for the big city experience tho’, unless you visit Montreal or Quebec City, but for geographical landscapes,(nature) rivers, lakes, skiing (winter) hunting/fishing during the right seasons… it is a breath of fresh air.
Always pray “for the happiness of others and Society’ Praying only for your own wishes is not the true way we should be. Strive to do things for the sake of others, and pray for their happiness as well.
Depending on where you are in the city and surrounding areas, the colours are beginning to deepen .. In some areas, there is a rainbow of colour, yet you drive out west of the downtown core and the greens are still dominant. Change is on its way, you can feel it in the air, smell it on the breeze that brings a chill and hovers before drifting off. The Robins are being social, coming out and being more present around us when we are on the trails. Every day I hear the sound of the crows as they inspect and search out their winter “resorts”… yesterday another photographer was patiently waiting for a “big” as she called it, wood pecker that had been frequenting the feeder area.

Today being the 1st, in PL it is when the PL ceremony for Peace is performed – today at 10 a.m. if you can’t make it to church, please take a moment to pray for world peace. Remember to show appreciation and give thanks for yesterday, and NOW.
Each person’s peace leads to world peace. First of all, you have to be happy. That happiness will spread and be the foundation of World Peace.

You have the opportunity every day to start a new canvas..
There are so many ways to meditate, it is such a personal way to re-group and reconnect with one’s own inner thoughts/feelings. I marvel at how easy it is to fall out of the “habit” of being “aware”. there was a time I schooled myself to always be aware, taking time to enjoy each step along the way of whatever day I was experiencing.
We often lean towards what is easy. The first time I was told I was “lazy” … I really was offended, “me lazy” surely this was not an accurate assessment of “me”… but if I am truly honest with myself, I have moments. my choices are not always based on “productivity”. But then, why does one need to always be productive. =^_^=
As I slowly navigate this world I am in now, I realize that my situation, my personal space, everything that had been once “normal” is now actually just “clutter” Time has passed, I am coming out of a time of “loss” and “mourning”, the world around me seems different. + It is, the younger generations have different understanding of what and where the world is today… the older travellers … have all come from different backgrounds, their life experiences are etched on their faces, the tell tale shadows of the past linger in their eyes.
When I stand still in the middle of the woodlands, in whatever weather, just stand there, not moving, just listening, my eyes looking nowhere in particular, just taking in the moment, I feel the stillness wash over me, the birds, chipmunks, squirrels, all return to their business of “being” and we all become part of NOW. That moment in time for me is a meditation, it can last seconds, minutes, there is no “clock” just that space where the tranquility of “BEing” is all there is.
Experiencing such moments, means that I can recall that “silence” “stillness” at other times, it is a place I like to be. In such times of “contentment” I realize that you are part of that moment, because you are part of me. We are all ONE with the Universe, with our unique rhythms, sometimes we are in sync, and other times we are simply ships passing in the night. Either way, you are part of my world, and like the seasons, the ebb and flow of life will keep us harmonized.
Till soon
PL Precept # 1 Life is Art
PL Precept # 2 La vida del hombre es su propia expresion
Everywhere one looks today, you can visually see that the seasons are changing. Summer has begun its departure, the colours of fall are slowly taking over. The air is fresher and cooler especially in the mornings and evenings.
Let’s respond clearly. Giving a proper response shows consideration towards others.
Was very impressed with how diligently they processed visitors coming in, we needed proof of vaccines, government ID card, and our temperatures taken before being allowed in. Floors were clearly marked with signs showing spacing, the restaurant was divided in a way that every one had plenty of personal space. Prior to going up for food, there were gloves ready for us to put on, and hand sanitizer set up for easy access. There was no handling of food without gloves, which were to be replaced each time you went up for food. Everyone wore masks unless you were seated at your table.
A wonderful experience shared with family and friends.. my last BD outing for the month. I cannot say that this year my birthday was not celebrated in style. Thank you everyone!!!
Tomorrow Monday 27th.
It’s okay to think “this is where it starts” There is always a turning point. It’s important what you do from now.
