a silent prayer

Good morning, to see Dan’s photo without the black tab, please visit his Instagram where you can enjoy his many captures of wildlife.. and his beautiful shots of nature. https://www.instagram.com/dancadphotography/

This female Grosbeak is the only one I have personally seen this winter. Last winter we had so many of her “family /relatives” it was an amazing winter to spend time with them and watch their antics. This year she has been on her own. Thank you Daniel for this wonderful picture of her. Your patience was rewarded, and I’m delighted to be able to show her off to our readers.

His top picture was one I copied (with his permission) some time ago, I was having a difficult time with “grief” and a bit of “loneliness”.. This winter for some reason, even tho’ it will going on 4 years this spring, since my husband passed – I have had a few bouts of what I call “tortured anguish”. I found Dan’s picture (the top one) made me feel “peaceful” it helped me to touch deep within me.. I allowed my mind to focus on the softness and the gentle spirit that he captured when he took the photo.

I’ve seen him standing stock still in minus degree temperatures.. for long stretches at a time, he actually seems to become part of the landscape.. I’d come up to my feeders and not even realize that he was there, he would be so quiet and still. In meditation and prayer I have been known to sit in stillness lost in the moment of NOW. I’ve meditated/prayed in Grand Central Station, it is a quiet that takes time to master, but once we find that “state of Being” it is one we cherish. However we all know, it isn’t always easy to “BE” we can’t just flick a switch and we’re there.

You can be with God by having a prayerful mind. Let’s pray for World Peace. We are all one big family. Let’s start by praying for the happiness of those around us.

Think “Now is the time” Instead of “it’s no use now” Don’t give up by thinking it’s too late. Tell yourself that there is more that can be done.

I just love the way Num captured his/her face… I think the eyes have so much going for them! If only we could live, accept and move on like they do. Life IS.

Don’t let circumstances sway your decision. It does not help to overthink things. Sometimes we just need to make up our minds and move forward.

Being able to enjoy 4 SEASONS is a blessing…

There will always be a way. If you persist and be creative without giving up, you will find solutions that you had not considered before.

Snow

You know its a good day when the snow plow is following you. =^_^= Yes, I still make the trek out to the country. Weather is not a deterrent. In fact, it makes for a new canvas and offers the opportunity of a different experience.

Today was a brilliant blue sky …. another awesome day!

resolutions –

look familiar – perhaps its something you’ve experienced

You go out for an evening of relaxation and somewhere along the way… things change.. you may not even know why or what caused the “disconnect”.

Everything that happens to you is material for growth. Approach everything with firm belief that, “it will tur out for the best.” Anything can be used as material for progress and development.

a perfect outing

There are days when you just know you made the right decision to go out. Today was such a day. I was headed out to a rural setting, the road wasn’t plowed but a few cars had already been down the dead end road… the snow was light… skies were overcast and gray… It was quiet. Very quiet. loved it….

Take action without thinking too hard. No matter how hard you try to foresee the future, you really don’t now how things will turn out. Do your best and see how it plays out.

good morning everyone…

Be kind to each other – remember today’s lesson. “Let’s have a humble mind”

Service is at 10 a.m. bundle up, -7 degrees F. and clear … stay away * from the downtown core today, – arrive safely – Dedicate morning prayer to “peace”.

Till soon- Oyashikiri

*protestors in downtown area, public asked to avoid area unless there is a need to be there.

January 30

Let’s have a humble mind. Once you think, “That’s good enough,” you become blind to the opportunities to be more creative.

Teaching of the week Seek to do what you don’t like Common thought is to move away from what you don’t like, this will however narrow your self-expression. Strive to overcome your weaknesses, what makes you say ; THIS I DON’T LIKE, WHAT I DON’T WANT. If you do so, you will discover a peculiar taste in what you judge to be bad. In addition, there is, in this gesture, a subtle and irreplaceable joy that only you can taste. (translated from Portugeuse)

Ensinamento da semanaProcure fazer o que não gostaO pensamento comum é o de afastar-se daquilo que não gosta, isto no entanto, irá estreitar a sua auto expressão.Esforce se para superar suas fraquezas, aquilo que lhe faz dizer ; ISTO EU NÃO GOSTO, AQUILO EU NÃO QUERO.Se assim fizer, você descobrirá um sabor peculiar naquilo que julga ser ruim.Além disso, existe, neste gesto, uma alegria sutil e insubstituível que só você poderá saborear.

Are you overdoing things? Not only do you harm yourself when you overdo things, but you may be imposing on others as well.

I can’t believe I’m making a fool of me. To understand people and things, put your thoughts aside first. Put it aside, pray, and work to understand. Then you’ll find that there are many things you can understand.
