Let’s find the good in others and praise them.
All people have good qualities and bad qualities. Focus on the good in others and applaud them every chance you get.

Pumpkins
Good Morning Everyone, yesterday had me visiting a pumpkin display at a farm stall in the east end of the city. Festive colour even though there was a strong suggestion of a rainy day ahead.
Life takes us on many journeys. Some are more pleasant than others. You have all gathered by now that I am a bit of an October junkie. What with the changing colours that surround us as all the hardwood trees start showcasing their fall wardrobes and the stores awash with Halloween decor … its a fun festive time and it will only get better as the Holiday season begins… starting usually in early November.
You ready!!! I don’t know how many times I’ve heard Thriller in the last few days…I actually spent time dancing to it last night… Not kidding.. between that and Monster mash… I’m sure my body thought it was having some kind of “nightmare”..
Today’s message
Multitasking reduces your joy by half
When doing something give it your all. There is joy in everything.

Appreciate the Makoto (Sincerity) of the People who came before you.
Everything we have today was built upon the hard work of our ancestors and the people who came before us. Always remember to be thankful and humble and continue to build on their past successes.

Dancing allowing the music to flow in and around you… letting your body move to the natural rhythms so you harmonize with the world around you is a wonderful way to “let go” of body stress. Q

Hier (yesterday) we had choices .. and today, we will be presented with different opportunities, which road will you take? We can only go forward…. we need to let go of yesterday and live in the NOW (Present)
The past leads to now, and now leads to the future
Life is an accumulation of moments ….. Cherish each one.

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.

mindfulness
In a world addicted to noise, stillness is not only rare, it is magnetic. when you can be authentic and live being yourself, you enjoy quiet reflection, and a place for space. Saying less, says more. Don’t speak to fill space, pause … don’t react, choose your words with care.
How are you today! It’s Sunday!
Your continued efforts will bring happiness
Persevere without giving up. This will lead to great joy in life.

Have you ever
Dreamed of being in outer space, and what it would be like if you could snap your fingers and be somewhere else. These days of interworld travel (via internet) we can be anywhere, and in any period of time. the other day I was in outer space on a floating inter galactic space pad. Last night I was in 1890 Colorado, the old west.. with circus clowns, tents and side shows.
Ok not the same as being stuck in rush hour traffic on the trans whatever highway in modern times. going 20-30 mph in a 100 mph lane.
Still wherever you are, or whoever you are with, time travel hasn’t arrived yet, But we can dream … stuck in traffic we can listen to music, chat with a friend (hands free)………… but ……………… do you take time from whatever you are doing, or need to do…………. to just sit quietly and RELAX with no radio/TV/computer/cell phone? Do you find time to build inner strength, appreciate friendships, sooth mounting stress?
I found a video the other day on YouTube that is just a picture of a fire burning in a fireplace… and… the only sound is that of the wood crackling in the fire. Awwwwww so so relaxing. No hauling of the wood, or having to go find firewood….. then tend it.. all I had to do was sit, close my eyes and enjoy the moment. What a delight….
Do everything with a prayerful mind.
Even if you have done your very best, there are times when you wonder if it is enough. That is when your prayers become most important.
