Bom dia
Start today with a fresh mind. Even though people and situation may look the same, they are constantly changing. Start each day with a fresh mind.

Wonderful Wednesday
Good Morning… ordinarily I would have cropped this picture,, I was interested in the fallen tree when i stopped to grab the picture – but when I saw it on the screen I was loath to cut away the quiet flowing water.. it was so beckoning. stretching its shimmer across to the distant shoreline. I left it. LOL my choice.
You can only change yourself. Before you start telling people how they should do things, think of how you can be more flexible.

spread your wings
Overwhelmed – exhausted – Irritable – oh dear… sound familiar if I look back over the last couple of days, I’d say that those adjectives resonate with me. I have had a feeling that nags at me, what is it you may ask, but I cannot put A word to it. It just lingers, asked if it is negativity … I’d say no.
Happen to you? Know the feeling? I decided it was time to turn roadblocks into resources. It is OK to be tired, especially if you are on the go for hours at a time… it is OK to get annoyed, BUT it is not ok if you start wearing this irritability day in and day out.
Today’s lesson…
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 misunderstanding.

Hello! this applies not only to how we are with others, but how we communicate and listen to ourselves! Yes, be aware of YOU. I was often darn right “ugly” in my interactions with a few people the last couple of days.. Having the car banged up, upset me, having to go through all the admin stuff, calling the insurance, arranging for an estimate etc. I let my unproductive negativity affect me. Time for me to give myself a “time out”… LOL no I didn’t go sit in the corner to sit staring at a blank wall.. altho’ the people that had to deal with me and my bad mood, and terrible behaviour.. probably would have loved to shut the door on me or slam down the phone.
It was time to put the struggling behind, admit to being less than a joy to be around, and do some serious “meditation/reflection” – I was starting to see every curve ball as a crisis… a challenge instead of an opportunity.
Today’s lesson for me, is to understand my own behavior, to listen and pay attention to my own inner grumblings and do something about it. LOL yes.. that is why I went looking for wings.. time to soar into space. allow the negative debris to fall away. Clear my mind .. enjoy the vastness of the myriad possibilities today will bring.
allo! it’s Friday
recognize your thoughts and feelings.
Allow your thoughts and feelings – recognize them
investigate and ask yourself “what is the story here? am I being honest with myself?
observe but try to not get caught up in it
Processing difficult emotions can be tricky… especially when they are unpleasant .. it can overwhelm the mind. … your thoughts and feelings will come and go.. they are constantly changing all the time, like the weather. Clouds, wind, rain (weather) it is constantly changing they are happening, but they are not the sky… allow for the moment, and let it go. ie. like a cloud dissolves in the sky. Let your mind rest!
Start by thinking “Let’s do it” Once you decide to do something and put your whole heart into it, things will start moving forward.

Thursday Doors
I had a day yesterday that didn’t start out well. I got hit by a taxi backing out of the lane across from where I live. Smacked right into the passenger side of my car. NOT happy. The driver had two children in the car, I heard her calling in to her dispatch, she looked both ways, she didn’t know where I came from?? hello… that is why cars have rear view mirrors … I had come out of my laneway and was on the road, ready to drive away. Because she was at fault, my insurance is handling all the details, but I will have to take the car for an estimate etc. blaaaaaa…..
Having said that, I wanted an escape.. I remembered this picture that Shirley had taken, with the red door, isn’t it the perfect little get-away… hmmm hope it has running water and electricity.. LOL I might like to escape, but I do love my creature comforts.
Think “Now is the time” instead of “it’s no use now” Don’t give up by thinking its too late. Tell yourself that there is more that can be done.

Stay off my turf…
It is mating season, this fellow was not happy with the humans who were in his way. Lol Dan got a picture of him.. and posted it, seems he (this one aggressive male) has been unhappy that so many people are tramping around what he considers his territory. I did see two yesterday at Mer Bleue they were not sitting around, they were off to “somewhere” and in a hurry. They best do what needs doing and then take a vacation and head into the woods away from “strangers” who could wish them harm.
Discover each person’s unique qualities. When we approach people with respect, we can understand them better and see their special qualities

You being bothered with chronic stress, deep exhaustion… to boost your energy any time of day, take a few deep breaths. That is one of the ways to instantly energize your mind and body, Studies have shown that deep breathing a few minutes per day is linked to increased cognitive performance, as well as a significant decrease in stress and fatigue. Worth a try right!!

I was looking at Num’s pictures .. was actually looking for doves … I have been seeing doves at Mer Bleue (NCC conservation area) Doves have been eating with the Blue jays, red wing black birds, and yesterday there were a dozen or so cackles there too. Fewer chickadees, but several groups of finch.. it was cold enough that the ice was solid underfoot, but one an feel the difference in the air, spring weather is here. Up and down, yo yo.. weather.. cold, mild, more cold, you get the drift. Then I saw the owl picture and knew I wanted to share.
At P23 (DewBerry, again NCC land) I was thrilled to see a couple of woodpeckers, they have not been around that much. However for those of you who are interested the white “ferret” has been around, he/she is changing colour..but I have seen him/her scampering through the woods, up, over and under what snow remains on the forest floor.
Also the wee ones are chasing about in great numbers. Where in the dead of winter the squirrels were busy gathering and munching on what they could find, the smaller animals I didn’t see.. but now I see little critters, chipmunks and smaller, scurrying with tails waving in the air behind them…. they seem to be everywhere. Maybe that is why I hear the owl(s) especially if I am there very early. Also its mating season right?…
Yesterday I heard that sexual energy (it was a quote) is one of the strongest drives in nature.. (for creativity and inspiration) Hey.. i was half asleep You Tube Quotes was playing actually I think the series is Kuotes spelled with a K.
Have a great day everyone… Till soon.
The owl is sought out by photographers and birders.. for some reason, they are fascinated by the owl and want to see it, usually he/she keeps hidden and certainly far from humans. It must wonder at the strange behaviour it sees from its perch .. as the two legged beings point and stand for long periods of time focused on him.. content to watch him sleep, and thrilled when he winks or turns his head…. forget the reaction if he stretches and spreads his wings.
Monday
Temperature dipped over night. Yes we went from shorts and balmy to minus temperature with a wind chill factor bringing it to around -20. Clearly someone is not interested in getting out of bed, nor of being all that social at the moment, I think the unintelligent sound/grunt translated to .. go away – go find your computer.. leave the room.. let me be.
It is not fun to be stuck in one place. Instead of being captured by what’s in front of you, strive to broaden your horizons

Time to pull out the winter coat again, it will be cold in the woods.. especially where its open and I’m not in the shelter of the trees.
Thursday
Be cheerful and friendly with those around you. Other people can sense how you are feeling. So, be cheerful

There are times when circumstances give us momentary moments of angst. It happens, but always, always there IS a solution.
It is interesting because it is difficult. In order to overcome difficulties in your life, you need to think hard and be creative. That is why life is always interesting,
