Express yourself cheerfully. When you are happy, your positive outlook will not only brighten your own day, but give energy to the people around you.

Do things in moderation. Whenever you overdo something you will lose balance in your life. Express yourself appropriately without being overly attached or detached.

I’m having flash backs and feeling fractured.. Ever get that way? Your parts are all together, at least most of them are.. but somehow, your assembly isn’t sitting well on your frame.
These are pictures taken from my files..Sometimes pictures say more than words. This way the viewer gets to attribute their own “storyline” to what they see.
Back when Chinese food was being introduced to the North American palette, cooks used whatever vegetables that they could find that were fresh and in season. Seldom will you find Chop Suey made the same way from one restaurant to another, never mind one county or geographical area to another.
This moment will pass. they always do. What did I saw the other day, Learning is a lifelong process. =^_^=
Remember that learning is a lifelong process. No matter your age, there is something to be learned and there is always room for improvement. always remember that there is wisdom to be gained from any situation.

Oh really, for real? Oh yes… this is my happy shopping time. Looking for what the suppliers have come up with this year.*
Be creative in your efforts. If something is not going well, take a step back and look at how you are tackling the problem. There is sure to be something you can improve on.

*No, I do not decorate the house…but….
Hidden away, sitting quietly in a clearing down a long dusty road stood a little cabin.
A perfect little home, I wondered at its charm. It was lovingly maintained, someone cared. I saw no electricity feeding to the home, what a tranquil spot to come to. I could see a farm house further down on the grounds, but there was no path or lane that led from there to this location.
If you saw my rust in the dirt pile, (from the other day) that was along the road to this little log cabin.
I’m thinking this will have to be on my list for a return visit.
Remember that learning is a lifelong process. No matter your age, there is something to be learned and there is always room for improvement. always remember that there is wisdom to be gained from any situation.

Thursday Doors…
How often in our life time will we say goodbye.. How often will we say, “its for the best”..
Like a fine wine we age, then the day comes when we simply know its time to enter another phase.. the journey we will embark on is all our own, family and friends are left behind. It has to be that way, for we all reach our journey’s end in our own way, and in our own time.
When we live each day to the best of our abilities, give thanks, and appreciate all that we have lived and learned along the way…. The final journey is a blessing well earned.
Appreciate your ancestors and their virtues. We are here today thanks to our ancestors. Let’s pay our respects and give sincere thanks to those who came before us.

Begin your day with appreciation. Welcome each new day with renewed appreciation, and step forward with a feeling of World Peace in your heart.

Actually it was the dirt pile that first caught my attention. It just seemed to be interesting, as I got closer I found out why =^_^=

Oyashikiri – PL Precept # 1 Life is Art
it was quiet………….. too quiet…………… in the stillness, I could actually feel that time stood still.. it was brief, maybe a second or two… just enough for me to catch a glimpse of the thought that had been stilled.
the early morning light is getting stronger ……….. I spy the bike and wonder how long its been there ………….. was it just forgotten………. will its rider return some day ………… or is this just another way …………. of leaving a thought unspoken ……………
We do that in life, we start a sentence…………… and then ……for what-ever reason…………. we leave the thought unfinished. More often than not, we don’t even recognize or are aware that we left a “thought/moment” unfinished.
In the quiet………..new ideas germinate ……….. if we interact proactively with the every changing “world” around us ……….. it is good to live with a flexible mind… today’s mantra… “go with the flow”……………… let the quiet moment…….. spawn new growth ……….to enhance your NOW.
Good or Bad, it is your mirror…. sincere expressions invite good results, but insincere expressions can lead to unexpected trouble.
