Monday

sanctuary

When I need to regroup, find my balance, my calm… this is where I go.. the quiet, the bliss.. ahhhhh

Geese flying overhead, their honking a reminder that spring has arrived. the tapping of one of the resident woodpecker drumming out his determined search for food. All wrapped around me surrounding me in the comforting embrace of nature’s embrace. I’d come home!

I felt strong enough to venture down the trail, it was a beautiful day, still early enough that I had the whole acreage to myself.

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point.

For many weeks I have been sidelined by a “health issues” that kept me away, it was so therapeutic to once more be under clear blue skies, my feet walking along the well worn path. Nature is healing. It is gift that we so often overlook and take for granted.

Have a good start to the week everyone!

Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving, in PL. The 21st of every month, service is at 10 a.m. Please if you can’t join us in person…. take a few moments around that time, to close your eyes for a few seconds/minutes and simply say a silent Thank You for your many blessings in life. It is a day of sincere appreciation.

Sunday

Bleak overcast, dull skies, off and on rain, eventually one has to say enough is enough. I find I’m not interested in the many dramas, cheating, killings, negative presentations on the telly. So I took to the internet and found myself a colourful landscape with little critters wandering around. Flowers in bloom everywhere.. little birds flying from branch to branch. Much more relaxing.

My avatar who worked this photo opportunity was happy to get her hair redone, new outfit to wear… all in all a productive few hours.

How about you, I’ve been catching up on my reading, I’m blessed with fabulous bloggers who live all over the world and share stories of life in their part of the Universe with colourful photos and brilliant writing. Due to my recent medical “issue” I’ve gotten way behind in my admin part of my “writing”… However, I have been reading and enjoying.. forgive my lack of immediate response.

Lately I have been totally captured by an Ai. artist who is producing and putting out Soul Blues .. he/she is all over FB and Instagram. I have mixed feelings about how fast Ai is appearing everywhere in my world. Just seems impossible to avoid it. I will leave a sample of his work at the end of this post.

Put your heart into your words. Do you tend to speak in just a matter of fact tone? It is important to put your heart into your words.

Thursday

Yup.. there are days when all we want to do is hibernate, distance ourselves from activity, from media, negative news/attitudes… it happens.

Its’ OK. It really is. We don’t always need to interact and be present for others.. sometimes.. we have to take time.. make time.. for ourselves and what matters to us.

Tuesday

Another day beings

A season ends

Spring season will bring new possibilities

There will be new trails, and roads to travel

This moment will never come again, don’t squander it.

Friday

Sometimes we have to make decisions that we would rather not make. We put off doing something because it is not a easy decision to make. We think about what is bothering us, we dissect it, we review all the options, we consider the number of years we have been involved with the people/organization that is part of the equation. In the end, we have to gather all the pertinent information and review it carefully.

PL Principle #1 I will live paying careful attention, putting Makoto into all I say and do,

PL Principle #2 I will not have complaints about others, matters, nor the weather. Rather I will always be creative and will look for shortcomings in my own thinking and actions.

I have been very upset about something that is happening in an environment that I am involved with/in. So upset that I realized that I was not only upset, I was/ am feeling used. In reviewing the circumstances, I didn’t feel that I was personally being abused or mistreated by the situation, but never the less the “anger” in me was/is very real…. so saying, I decided that to make a proper decision, I needed to confront, and be honest and open about my feelings and why I was /or am ready to disassociate myself with the situation.

PL Principle # 6 I will not be stubborn, being captured by my own thoughts.

So I have made arrangements to listen to the “other side” with an open mind…. and then from there I will review my “headspace” again.

Meanwhile I am taking a step back, and will listen to the silence for awhile.

How is your day ? I wish for you a happy and positive week-end.
