and yours alone to to walk, so much to see, so much to discover.
You will meet and walk with others along the way, but no on can walk the road for you.
Are you overdoing things? Not only do you harm yourself when you overdo things, but you may be imposing on others as well.

What is it when the mind just won’t stop.. so many thoughts, so much information, so many “things” needing attention, There comes a time when the constant traffic of ideas, thoughts, conversations, tasks, to do lists, and just plain chatter … gets to be too much. Self preservation, turn off. Slow down. Walk away, take a deep breath, shut the door!

Chill. Easy to say, but hard to do. Sometimes we need to remember we should close one door before opening another. Or find an entry that is open and inviting, leading to endless possibilities.
How much can we hide behind a closed door? or…. in closing a door, we keep out negative energy, or do we, we can never escape the realities of our own thoughts.

I really do believe that this one likes to pose for me. He will set himself apart and then just pose giving me time to take his picture… all sides =^_^= … It doesn’t earn him rewards just praise and admiration.
When the camera gets put away, he will saunter off being very nonchalant. No, I cannot tell them apart once they are gathered in a group.. not yet anyway. I have to admit to being fond of them, now when I see them when I’m walking a trail, I stop and visit.. a few of them will be social, others will turn and run off towards their “pals”.. they have the cutest way of running. The other day I was treated to two of them actually flying off into the trees. It was my first time to see them lift off and fly a distance.. they are a delightful bird.
I have a question, there is a big (I think) wasp nest hanging high up on a tree at one of the sites I go to, I watched it the other day swaying in the wind. It is big, how do they suspend it and with what?

Make a point of smiling, it relaxes the face and can alter your brain and body chemistry, It can also have a positive effect on the way people react to you.
What happened? Where did I go what did I do? for some reason I did things yesterday that today, I realize I filed/posted in the wrong places. I looked normal enough, I felt like I was firing on all cylinders, but…. then this morning my phone was acting up, I couldn’t see the screen, it was black, like it has done before when I forgot to charge it… and the wake up was sudden when a friend sent a text.. and I heard the sound… and my sleep fogged brain realized that it had to be later in the morning, cuz the phone would not have beeped. and and and and…. it isn’t even 7 yet and I’m late. OK… deep breath…
Be cheerful and friendly with those around you. Other people can sense how you are feeling … So, be cheerful

In silence I find myself transcending the NOW of the moment
To the vibrant energy of the forest trail
I see before me the portrait of the life on each leaf – in the textures of the tree bark
I am in awe at the way the frost paints a delicate lace on the landscape that surrounds me
Each picture perfect moment is etched in my consciousness
THIS is LOVE of the rarest kind – it removes the blindfold from my eyes
I am seeing the world again … not just with my eyes
but from the heart and soul of my BEing.
Every day is a gift from God/Universe

Choices – we all have them, we encounter them every day – some we make without really thinking about them, others we give a lot of thought to. With the change of seasons, comes an opportunity to listen closely to our inner voice, and let the past drop, like the soon to be falling leaves. Once lived, it is time to let go. Learn from what was, appreciate now and move forward. Love is a powerful emotion, live with it wisely,
In life there is Yin/Yang, we cannot have one without the other. (positive/negative)

The maiden sits. Seasons come and go. Still she sits.
Once I saw her, I couldn’t not see her. What drew me to her initially was the face that looked out at me.
It was only when I got home and uploaded that I realized it was a woman sitting. (a maiden)
I posted it on Instagram, then felt the need to share her with you here.
Help the people around you smile more. always strive to make those around you smile. That will bring you joy too.

NOW
Yesterday’s journey took me through a golden glow of pure ecstacy. This means, the leaves are in change mode from scrarlet/crimson tones to the sunshine yellows/golds and bronze…
Today is a new day, the start of a new work week. I cleaned out a file drawer last night, I found files back to 2008, some even older. One of the tips to finding mindfulness and calm, is to declutter. Since my husband’s passing, and prior to… I have been doing a slow but steady “clean up” Over the years it is amazing how much we retain, or put away to look at later. What we thought was important to keep .. yet once tucked away, seldom or if ever… looked at again
Somewhere in time I had picked up a book called Stuck on YOU, 140 quirky love quotes that stick in your memory and on your stuff (there were stickers in it at one time) the book is titled, Stuck on you, the heading is… Where there is love . there is life. copyright 2016. In looking at it again, I see the pages tear off, even more interesting to me is the quotes I used (I date or highlight if I something catches my eye)
Here is one, by unknown. ” I wish I could turn back the clock, I’d find you sooner and love you longer.” my little inner voice says… you didn’t find him/her sooner because you were not ready…
Today’s quote from the PL calendar..
Start today with a fresh outlook. Even though people and situations may look the same, they are constantly changing. Start eah day with a fresh mind

In cleaning out that file drawer, I threw out a lot, but I also found a few treasures that I have put aside for another moment of discovery at a later date. Love has been a constant thread in my life. I love being happy, and loving life brings a lot of happiness.. yes knowing love means you live all the emotions that go with it.. but when love is true, it is all a blessing.
True love doesn’t have a happy ending. True love never ends.
Barbara Johnson
