There is temptations everywhere we turn…. it is simply the time of year that if you have the need to express your individuality … there is somewhere to go, people to share the wonders of creativity with. No one blinks if you wear brown and black together or your clothes inside out..

A hasty mind invites accidents
Things will not go smoothly if you neglect what is important now and rush the process in order to get results. Be careful that you aren’t getting ahead of yourself.
Life is an adventure. What could possibly be hidden in plain sight,..… ?

I was so tired when I got to this part of the highway, I had pulled off thinking I’d put the seat back and maybe close my eyes…then I heard all the birds, saw the river slowly drifting by… and I was enticed out of the car ,it was such a beautiful day. Nature and all its wonders is a soothing balm.
Have a good day everyone!

If your mind is always full ….. how can new ideas filter through…. life is still unfolding.. there is no fixed self,… a conversation can challenge your assumptions… to be open is to be free… the mind like the body, must remain supple… if you are to move with the currents of life.
The bigger the task, the more your convictions are tested
Whenever you are undertaking a huge task, you may encounter resistance. Don’t give up, and let your strong resolve carry you to completion.
We all have different ways of feeling and thinking
Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us.

Good Morning Everyone, Bom dia…..
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.
My joy today was that when I drove to the trail, there was no sign of the turkeys, I called them, and three of them came at my call. I had not been there since the spring… I was most impressed. The picture here was not from today I haven’t transferred to my desk top the ones I took today.. however, I wanted to show you my “babies”… they do make me smile..
A little late today, but .. I woke with a desire to visit the woodlands… so I did.
Do things in moderation
Whenever you overdo something, you will lose balance in your life. Express yourself appropriately without being overly attached or detached.
To make progress do anything while it is still fresh.

These words of wisdom have a message for me… I am a do it now person, I have always been like that, this morning has found me dragging out my medical books and researching and refreshing my “tired’ gray cells on my actions of the past few days.
I woke to the searing discomfort of the neuropathy symptoms all clamoring to express and shout their discontent at having to share my limbs with each other. Nerves screamed, and went into an unwelcome screaming fit. I could barely manage to balance as I made my way to the medicine cabinet in the bathroom. I will not bore you with medical terms, the long and short of it was my muscles cramped and toes jerked up in protest… I have learned to quiet the mind and try to still the mounting urgency to rectify the physical reaction that happens when the the tendons and other fellow body parts go into their trauma mode.
I had a small amount of success with calming the body by using a cream infused with magnesium. I had done it faithfully for weeks, and I was having night after night with no symptoms… I got lazy, or forgetful, and took to reclaiming activities/tasks that needed to be done. but I did it all at once, I threw out my support pillow (for under the legs) and then didn’t follow through and get to the store to replace it. That meant I had to use a substitute knee pillow that was not the same angle/depth and composition of what my legs were used to.. I went out the next day and got the correct pillow, but meanwhile, the legs started to grumble…
AND that didn’t trigger or jog my gray cells to remind me to use the magnesium cream after my shower. I allowed myself to be distracted and and and.. I didn’t do it when the thought came to mind, I put it off and of course, it got lost.. I didn’t do it at all.
This morning my body told me in no uncertain terms… “it was not happy” and I had to deal with the fall out.
No its not just the magnesium, there are of course other factors.. but all could have been better planned and executed. … “do it now” when you can, if something comes to mind, and it is something that has shown to be helpful, THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING…or not doing… and act accordingly.
Our bodies are our life long companions… we should not take them for granted.
Have a good day everyone…
