It is easier to adapt to something when we find it interesting. No matter how enjoyable a situation is, a slight change in our attitude can make it boring. Let’s face any situation with curiosity and enthusiasm.

Sometimes there is more said in silence than with words.
Express yourself clearly so others can understand you. When you can’t communicate clearly it can lead to problems. always express yourself carefully to avoid any misunderstandings.

The magic of waking to another day, is realizing that there are so many possibilities, and each one will be a new beginning. I heard the other day that someone had made up a “mood board” they had collected and gathered materials to make up a poster with a collage of inspirations and aspirations. Sounds like a fun project, I am currently in a declutter “mode”, must ask if this is something they will put up somewhere or if it is like a journaling page. It is always fun and interesting to learn how others cope with mindfulness
Today I forced myself to return to Pine Grove Trail .. it has been cleared .. above is what it looked like after the storm.. below is what I explored today.
At first I confess I was filled with a sadness, my feet were reluctant, and my whole body tensed as I made my way through the gate to walk along the once familiar trail Then I began to notice the new growth that was bravely dealing with the coming of winter. The young shoots were bravely waving their fall colours.
I was reminded that in nature, there is always tomorrow, and another day. Out of the broken, devastated remains of what was, there was new growth, Strong young shoots reaching up into the clear blue sky, their leaves a riot of colour showing their pride at having attained a place in the world.
The message was loud and clear, never let a set back, deter you from your goals or purpose in life. It may not be the easiest path, but it is your path, and you are here, live it… experience all of what life sends your way… if you come face to face with it, it is because the Universe knows you can cope/deal with it.
When you let go of what was… you are blessed with new opportunities .. you face new potential … you will make new memories … and you yourself, will grow, you open the door to new possibilities.
What began as a simple walk, turned into a moment of discovery, I feel so blessed, and that you are here to share it with me, makes it a pure delight.
Treasure each moment in time. Life is a continuation of “Now”. Treasure each and every moment as it comes, so that you can live your life as fully as possible without regrets.
These were taken, some time after I arrived, the fog had been so dense that it was too dark, Driving I could only see one car length ahead … fortunately I know the road, even so.. I was very cautious. My appreciation only deepens for the photographers who do this on a regular basis. If you want the pictures you have to be prepared to get up and out, so you are at where you want to be when the light is just how you want it.
It’s about being at the right place at the right time.. sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn’t.
Take action without thinking too hard. No matter how hard you try to foresee the future, you really don’t know how things will turnout. Do your best and see how it plays out.

Have a great week-end. In Canada, this week-end (Sunday) is when Daylight savings ends.
There is no denying that a new season has arrived. The leaves with the rain that we’ve just had will be dropping more then they have been. In the forest there has been the soft sound of continuously falling leaves, as they flutter to the earthen floor. I was in the right place at the right time yesterday as I drove down Ridge Road towards the parking for Mer Bleue Bog.
Praying before taking action changes the outcome. Have clear wishes and do your best. Then something new will open up for you.

For some reason i thought yesterday was Thursday and did my door post yesterday, if you are looking for the link to the weekly Door feature, here it is.. https://nofacilities.com/2022/10/27/new-old-doors/
also note.. I have now tried the CBD roll on for my arthritis in the fingers/thumb joint, with the compression glove and it does provide some relief… but I still (after a couple of days of raking etc.) needed the heavy duty pain med (over counter) from the pharmacy to sleep. As you all know.. evenings.. night time, is when flare ups can be a real nuisance.
