today

Where has the day gone, as I sit and ponder the events of the day, I realized the time comes and goes so quickly, one minute it is time to get up and before I know it, it is time to call it a day. I have learned over time to try to live each moment with intent and purpose, yet no matter the day/night, when I actually stop to take in the moment.. I am surprised that much of the time came and went, and I am still looking at NOW.

Do What you can, with what you have , with where you are. (Theododre Roosevelt)


Here is a thought for you… do you agree?


Your feelings of appreciation become real when you express them. Express your feelings of appreciation by actually saying “thank You” out loud or by doing something to show how you feel. Not only will the person you are thanking feel good, but you will too, leading to better things in the future. (PL2014.210

Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

It’s easy to place the blame on others and society for the problems you encounter in life. But you are the one with the power to change the outcome. (PL2019.28)

Breathe life into things and money.

The value of things and money is revealed when they are utilized as material to express yourself. Express your full Makoto (sincere effort) when using them (2014.20)

Loved this creative way of showcasing what was.. Touring along a dusty country road, where there was a lot lush vegetation, It was a refreshing sight to find an old barn that was being used as a backdrop for old pieces of rusting metal farm equipment and an old bike.

There is an implement on the bottom row that reminds me of the ice “tongs” used to grab big chunks of ice stored in “ice” barns.. in the days before refrigerators. Does seeing these old pieces remind you of another place and time? I see there is a bigger one upper left. I love rusted metals, can anyone shed light on some of the history showcased here?

Have a great start to your week!

Day of Peace

Day of Peace, 1st of each month. Ceremony is at 10 a.m.

really ?

Take your pick, what will you have today?

Ever wonder what is on your mind? Last night I had this brilliant idea, but of course, when I woke this morning, it was gone.

Recent conversation. Friend. I hear you got a cat. Me. Yes I did. Friend. .So, what is he/she like? Me. I don’t know. Friend. You don’t know? Me. No, he came in and I haven’t seen him since.

Think I’m joking…. guess what… I’m not.

So this is my day, how is yours?

OK I do know this, he is eating, using his litter and except for one brief conversation at me, he is quiet. NO, he has not come near me, or have we been in the same room together. Does a 5 second, pause and acknowledge and then skedaddle count?

Tuesday

I have been reminded how love is an ingredient that never fades, When we live with love in our hearts, life’s lessons, become blessings that enrich our lives.

Oyashikiri

The human mind is good at confusing what can be and usually is a very simple moment. Believe in the power of a love that is true, for it never leaves you.

Thursday

We all live through rough moments when we wonder– what? why? how did this happen? Why me? These ahHA moments can be startling, revealing, and even painful. But. the truth and reality of it .. is that moment will pass.. in French there is an expression, “want to or not, this is what it is”… When you have these light bulb moments, thank “Universe/God” you’ve reached the turning point. Say thank you… and move on.

Find the door .. open it, walk out or walk in, the world is yours to discover.
