Sometimes we have to deviate from what was to what is.. Artistic expression in a virtual setting, with music to flavour the viewing.
Stay connected everyone, discover or rediscover that “loving feeling”
Enjoy the changes in your life. Things around you are constantly changing with the times. Take on the challenging and new experiences as materials for self expression.
on each side it is flanked by a window, shut tight
the moss on the cement blocks leading to the door,
suggests that the steps have been there for awhile
how many times have the window panes been kissed by the rain
just when did the house fall silent
are there finger prints on the windows, of children looking out
If I knock, will someone come to the door
The house is so small and still, I can see right through to the back door.
just waiting for some kind of response .. I feel the house shift
it has been awhile, but it can still hear echos of its former lives
it sits silently aware that for a brief moment in time, someone came to visit
standing proud, it feels good, once more it served a purpose and was rewarded with a moment of appreciation.
Old homes, buildings, fences, cars, trucks, they are reminders that life is fragile, and fleeting, now more than any other time, is not the time to squander the joys of living, the true meaning of friendships, and genuine caring and understanding of the people, communities around us.
It is important to say “thank you” Everything that appears in front of you is all material for you to improve yourself whether its food, people or things. Learn to accept everything, whether it is something you like or not.
Don’t give up! Stick with it, as many times as it takes. Sometimes you want to just throw in the towel and say, “I give up” but that’s the time for you to dig deep and push through. Your sincere effort will invite a good outcome

cool, stark but a promise of a new season.. soon… Standing in Ontario looking out at the Quebec shoreline.
Good Relationships begin by greeting each other. Acts of respect and courtesy are reflections of how much we value others. Make it a point to be the first to greet your family, people at work and around the neighborhood.

Be aware of the joys in life. Feel each moment, let the moment carry you away. Fear not the unknown, believe in your heart that each moment is a blessing. Trust, believe, have faith..the Universe is a wonderful place.
Rather than thinking “I Have to…” Think ” OK, Let’s do this!” When you procrastinate and put things off until later, you will make things harder than they need to be. Get up and do it now.
Be thankful at the beginning and end of each day. each and everyone of your actions can inspire peace within your family your community and the world around you. This peace will eventually help lead to world peace.

It’s important to be assertive, but maintaining harmony is just as important. Say what is on your mind clearly, but don’t be overly attached to your views. Respect the points of view of others and always seek to find a happy medium.

“oh” said the hatter,” does it really matter” “of course it matters” can you not hear the constant chatter?”
mushrooms and glow worms beckon the hatter -“you are a nutter, your head is filled with butter..’ “it’s Wednesday” said the hatter “come let’s gather” so saying he slid on petal and fell with a clatter, nothing is sadder than a hatter who has fallen into the batter making noises with such loud chatter that sent everyone scurrying .. muttering ” its Wednesday make it matter, make it matter, or the hatter will be back, madder with his natter and we won’t have a moment of silence.. Make Wednesdays matter!”
