Experience the joy of change
It is truly amazing when you look back at yourself this year compared to last year, or today compared to yesterday, and realize how much you have improved and changed.

Reminder – anxious moments are opportunities to listen and learn
Let’s express our joy to others
When you express your joy to others, the joy will multiply, and make others happy as well.

Let’s take a moment and drink in another space in time…. a place with a different vibe… that wonderful lush vegetation…. the hum of traffic on the busy road outside…. time for a spot of tea and maybe a dumpling? A cafe somewhere in ?
Good morning peelista….How are you today?
With one thought, “the world” will change
Changing your way of thinking will make a difference on how you perceive the world.

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.

WE can’t live for tomorrow, if we can’t make today count! Tomorrow is a word.. Today, is NOW.. and NOW is what counts. Happiness is up to you. Only YOU.
PL Precept # 1 Life is ART
Take your pick on what “connects” enjoy..
In loving memory of friends who have recently passed. Music the universal language of the soul.
Sunday
Because I’ve seen a better day… does not mean I still can’t play,
Put your whole heart into everything and express your individuality.
When you put your whole heart into expressing yourself, your true beauty will shine through,

Be careful not to lean towards only what you like
Live a life of balance; don’t just do the things you like to do or are good at … or already know what to do

For everyone who asked, Com Quem Contar is a song from the PL songbook, originated out of Brazil, written by Ana Marie Miranda Coelho Rio… it is a song about trust, and faith. In English the title translates to Who to Trust. Thank you, glad you enjoyed it and found it uplifting. If you missed it, it was in yesterday’s post. We sing the song everywhere, it is joyful, in Brazil they even have a little dance when it is song, In Canada, we (I admit) sway and get into it when we sing it… smiles.. it is very hard to not get “into it”. We do sing it in Japan when the International groups convene.. someone will get on the piano in the grand entrance to the International headquarters… and it isn’t long before we are all gathered and singing it…. It is only a little over 3 minutes but we will sing it for longer, repeating it as we march along the roadside towards one of the gathering places…. life is joyful when shared with friends who share in they pleasure of music… Music is universal...
Be happy …. love..

A Door, doors are built to allow us access to a building and then to leave it. While we are inside, we are protected from the elements and the world outside.. The door is our method of returning to the outside world and the chaos and cacophony that is forever trying to invade and influence our “Quiet “‘
The door comes in a wide variety of colours even shapes and sizes, the dictionary says it is a “a hinged, sliding, or revolving barrier at the entrance to a building, room, or vehicle, or in the framework of a cupboard.” I have seen doors that are imposing and others that are just sturdy and practical. Think about it … where would we be with a door.?
PL thought 2017.18
Welcome the new while respecting the old
Every generation brings forth new and positive changes, but also relies on the wisdom of the past. Be able to appreciate both and take the best from each.

Time appears to stand still when you come across a peaceful scene along the river. The gentle curving of the walkway meant that you slow down your pace…. your eyes follow the shoreline, birds are singing happily from somewhere off in the distance. It feels good to have the moment to yourself, The sun is high in the sky, but the surrounding trees are providing dappled shade. This walkway follows the wanderings of the Rideau River…along Riverside Drive (Ottawa)… There has been a lot of construction this summer along Bank Street, (cross street) This could be the reason, but in my exploring the other day, there were very few people enjoying the “park” ..note… the colours are starting to appear. Mother Nature has begun to weave her magic.
When you are not having fun, could it be because you’re being lazy
Sometimes you feel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything. At times like this, just get up and move your body or work your mind to the fullest extent.
