This precious handmade hamster, makes my heart sing. She puts a smile in my heart just by sitting there smiling back at me.
The last few days have been difficult for me. I have found myself drifting into a state of “low drive and little interest ” When I could I retreated to my bed, the quiet of a darkened room and the desire to sleep. My sleep mates were only too happy to crawl under cover and enjoy time out from the weather that was raging outside.
Today I had to go out, there were errands that needed doing, so after a lazy start to the day, I took myself off to do what needed doing. When I arrived at the church I was surprised with JOY, the adorable Hula Hamster. Oh what a gift. I melted and was totally taken in by her charm.
Loving caring friendships are priceless. JOY lifted me out of the shadows , back into the sunshine. Olinda weaved a magic spell, I am blown away. Thank you. I am reminded that in life, in a split second, the sun can break through the clouds, and all is right again.
I am so blessed. The Universe always comes through for me, when I allow myself to stumble, my friends are there reminding me, that LOVE, is always with me. God is Love, Love is GOD and we are all ONE

Hula Hamster is handmade and I love her.
It has been snowing now, all day. At least it appears to have been snowing since early this morning, it could have even snowed over night.
Temperature has been nice. The few times I went outside to let the dogs in or out, I found it to be very pleasant.
“we can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses ” Abraham Lincoln
The dogs have pointed me to a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson ” Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail”. This is the back yard, their trails have all gone missing…
Some how I do believe they are hinting. Will the human take the hint? One of life’s mysteries.
hmmmm choices, choices.. Till next visit.. hope your day has been simply GRAND.

Day 16 of the PL calendar for 2019
Even thought you may have put your best effort into doing something, you still may have made some mistakes. That is why it is important to always work with a prayerful mind.
Be happy, live to spread happiness and joy wherever you go – people will think you mad, but oh how divine it is to share a smile with another being. A dog wags his tail enthusiastically when you say hello, the cat, rushes to snuggle and purr in your arms. ah there is an unspoken bliss when we are harmonizing. Try it. You may like it.
PL Principle 21 will live in true harmony with the world around me.
Bom dia…

The last few days, maybe even weeks, I have found myself thinking of a different time and what was. How a young garden, took shape, and grew till it no longer resembled what was.
Life mirrors nature, the link between the two has been established since way before I was born. I am only now pulling the fragments of the past into what I have been living and what is to come. I can feel the stirring of new beginnings, I know that I am already well into discovery mode.
Today, day 15 of the PL Calendar – Live with firm determination, thinking that “this will turn out for the best”
Everything in this world progresses an develops. Always be positive, knowing that everything will turn out for the best.
Yesterday I drove to Montreal, the day was bright, balmy and welcoming. Each mile was a new beginning. Even though I have travelled this route many times, it was like a first visit. The landscape along the way, simply would not be still. The shades of late autumn strutted their charms against the blankets of pristine snow. I felt their happy waves, and delighted in the variety of picture postcards they flashed my eager eyes as I drove by. Mother Nature, stayed with me all the way, the best tour guide ever.
Life is a blessing, I am filled with appreciation and gratitude. Thank you all for sharing my world, Life is love, and love is YOU and the world we are in.

Looking out at animals calmly enjoying their time in the pasture.
Their only thought is to BE.
Not feeling 100% I took to my bed early, I thought I would listen to my body, and simply lie down.
Life has a way of getting in the way.

Good morning everyone, bom dia..
I was out of the city most of the week, travelling the roads…Gone are the fields of green, I was met with beautiful skies, that reflected the cooler temperatures, and the fields of white. Interesting how the sky actually looks bluer and the clouds whiter when below is a blanket of crystal white snow.
I love that the world is constantly providing us with an abundance of new vistas, opportunities and challenges. Letting go of what was, is an ongoing process of growth and new experiences.
PL calendar day 24 – Listen and See with careful attention and accept each other
Focus your “eyes” and “ears” towards the expression of others without any pre conceived notions. Then you will be able to see their true intentions.
Life is what we make of it. The choices are always ours.

Every new day is a blessing, each exchange with a friend, is a double blessing, for often through the eyes of our friends, we see a part of ourselves. Q
