Your true self is revealed in the smallest of words and actions, Most people act and speak carefully when faced with an important situation. However, it is also important to put your sincerity into the simplest, seemingly minor tasks as well. PL 2011.18
HI my heartfelt thanks to you for your prayers ..your kindness/thoughtfulness and caring is very appreciated. Life is what it is.. one door closes, another opens.. Friends are one of life’s greatest treasures.
Whether you are happy or not depends on your perspective, The things that happen in your life are neither good nor bad, It is your perspective that determines whether the outcome is good or unfortunate, PL 2015.17
PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.
Doorways, entrances, there is always a certain intrigue ..sometimes more obvious than others. Even at night, we are drawn to buildings because of an entrance/doorway. Some can be very deceiving, impressive and exciting on the outside, but uninviting once inside. Other doors or functional, strong and commanding, while inside there is calm and serenity.
Today I have combined the Thursday Door challenge that I participate in, and pictures of two of the Perfect Liberty churches. the streamline one on the left, is the PL Church in Hawaii, the bottom right is the Ottawa church, standing in front of the main entrance are, Rev Hiroki Matsuki and his wife, Yoshiko.
Reminder today is Ancestors Day, there will be a 10 a.m ceremony, if unable to attend, please take a moment for a short prayer mid morning if you can.
Today’s quote
Give thanks to your ancestors and to your parents. You exist today thanks to your ancestors and parents. Express your appreciation by devoting yourself for the sake of others and society. (PL 2015.11)
Note* In today’s prayers, make time to remember “All” who have touched your life in some way, been there for you, travelled some of your journey. Some may have been strangers, you met and never saw again, but the meeting left a lasting impression. Could be a voice at the other end of line, who when you needed kindness, was there for you. Gratitude and Appreciation are gifts we not only extend to others, but benefit our own lives.
Today being Thursday, as always if you want more doors, please visit Dan’s No Facilities site and enjoy the trip around the world enjoying the doors shared by other door bloggers. https://nofacilities.com/2024/04/11/alumni-doors/

Cheers everyone!
Enjoy, shared from the heart
How many times in your lifetime have you heard someone say… “You can’t see the forest for all the trees”.. when I first heard that expression, I went.. “wow” so true… now after years of going into the forest every morning to start my day.. I “see” the forest in a totally different way.. and yes there are a lot of trees, and there are a lot of things I do not actually “see” because every day/night there is something new happening in the woods.
So… I take in what I do see/feel and enjoy it… learn from it… and move on. This IS life, there are things we will experience with no rhyme or reason.. yet IF they present themselves in our “Present/moment of awareness” it is because there is something there for us. the Universe provides. It is in “living” our lives, that we grow and get to learn about the wonders around us.
Tell yourself “Things happen” Even if something is inconvenient, once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

Relax and take a moment to breathe
Always remember that “World Peace is everything” If each and every one of us prays for World Peace, we can make it a reality. Let’s keep this in mind as we live each day.

There is a 10 a.m. service this morning. the 1st of each month, we gather to pray for World Peace. 1st, is Day of Peace. If you cannot make it to church .. please take a moment of silence and share with us,
It is early, 6:45 a.m. and already it is light out. Yay!
Pay careful attention without overly straining yourself or taking things too lightly. Having the right amount of tension in your life allows you to notice many things, and that will hep you to better express yourself

One door closes. Another opens. Some doors are easy to get to, other’s the path to it can be challenging, but if you are determined to get to it, the journey will be worthwhile, interesting and rewarding.
No effort is ever wasted.
Express yourself freely within the rules. If you allow yourself to interpret rules and regulations too rigidly, you are limiting yourself You can find true joy when you work creatively within the rules,,

Everybody has a different ways of thinking and seeing the world. People have different th oughts and different opinions. Even if someone’s point of view is different from yours, listen to what they have to say so you may learn something new.
