Even if you have done it many times before, put your full heart into it. When we are doing something, especially if its a small or easy task, we tend to get sloppy. Let’s put our whole heart into everything we do, even if its something as simple as pushing a button.

I have no likes or dislikes Even for those who say “I’ll have anything” there are things that I love ” I don’t see many people getting sick without eating what they don’t like, but I often see people getting sick from eating too much of what they like. The same goes for hobbies. It is a human path that doesn’t touch and stay.

PL Precept # 20 Live maintaining equilibrium between mind and matter.
Think of the timing before you say …”but” When stating your opinion, make sure you are being respectful of others’ opinions. Be mindful of this when you speak.
Being Thursday I realized it was Thursday Doors, this year I thought to maybe explore a door that grabbed my attention and discover why it did. Doors are needed to enter and leave a building but for me they also add character to the site/location. This door was off a main street of a small tourist town, I was taken by the owner’s use of natural woods to use in the window box in front of the big picture window. Decorative it allows light in, but gives privacy to the occupants inside. The door is an old wooden door with decorative trim, blending in with the other décor used on the façade… simplicity at its best.
Think of the timing before you say “but…” When stating your opinion, make sure you are being respectful of others’ opinions. Be mindful of this when you speak.
You can only change yourself. Before you start telling people how they should do things, think of how you can be more flexible.

Every day we evolve, every day we face new opportunities, every day we get to make a decision on how we spend our time. What we want to do to accomplish this moment in time…is our decision… make it worthwhile.
for example — I ask myself why I only spend 5, 10 minutes with the crows, when I am on my own time table, they are giving me pleasure, why do I rush away.? Silly thought, random moment.. but there you have it.. caw caw caw….
Taking action without thinking too hard. No matter how hard you try to foresee the future, you really don’t know how things will turn out. Do your best and see how it plays out

(When busy) Don’t you feel like you’re always being chased by work, saying and “if you don’t do that” or “if you don’t do t his..” The more work you do, the more fulfilling your time.
[Laziness] No matter how hardworking you are, you can call yourself lazy if you put off doing what you have to do because it’s troublesome or put off doing what you like first. What remains after being lazy such as “later…” is a pile of difficult problems that make you mentally tired every day. Isn’t it piled up with difficult problems? Let’s make each one interesting and enjoyable. Perfect Liberty 2021.12.24 (translated in Japan to English.)
With one thought, “the world” will change, changing your way of thinking will make a difference on how you perceive the world.
Each person’s peace leads to world peace. First of all, you have to be happy. That happiness will spread and be the foundation of World Peace.

Happy Thanksgiving to our American family .. this is a very special time for you, families will gather, friends will get together… It is a time of sharing and being with those we love, if not physically, spiritually, In China, it is the Chinese New Year that is the catalyst for the push to spend time with family and those we cherish… In my thinking” this is something that should happen every day .. but .. it is not always practical, so having this one time set aside for focusing on saying “thank you” to the world around us… is very special, to everyone.
What an odd ball assortment of personalities – I know from past experiences, at gatherings when people come together – often there are a unique number of interesting characters that have been in or at our “family” gatherings that we don’t know all that well – now is the time to “explore” “discover” take the opportunity to walk up to, and check out the diversity in your own “backyard”…
No two doors are alike, or are there to serve the same purpose.. Just like the people around us.
Do things joyfully instead of taking it easy… Enthusiastically engage with what’s in front of you. You’ll enjoy it more.

When they dry, I bring them in .. the leaves have gone, there only remains the lanterns on their stems.. they make lovely centre pieces, or arrangements that brighten up the seasons when we are indoors more. I was told they hold spiritual pods inside that have gathered their energy from the sun during their growing season. =^_^= Because I love the idea of having the natural elements of the Universe sprinkled throughout my living space, these are “gems” that I enjoy all year long.
Do everything willingly and joyfully. Your upbeat attitude will make things more cheerful and enjoyable.

Refreshing greetings not only enrich your mind, but also make the other person’s heart feel good. When you say hello, stretch your chest, raise your head and cheer up with a smile.
