Living with cats has been a new adventure for me. Even tho’ I had cats for years in a bygone day… the most recent companions over the many years (more recently) were canine. Big difference. The cats and I have had to adjust … them to an eccentric eclectic human (they were rescues) and I… well… good thing they are patient..
Tomorrow we start another month. It is also the 1st, there will be a 10 a.m. service at church.. See you there if you can make it.

Life has a way of throwing us curve balls when we least expect it. Suddenly we are in free fall when a moment before, we thought we had it all under control.

PL Precept #19 Begin once you perceive
Have you ever had that moment … when you realize…. something just happened, and you just know.. it is going to make a difference in your life…. you just have to figure out, how and why?
PL Precept # 7 Everything exists in relativity
Stop.. close your eyes and just pause… take that moment just to reflect and treat yourself to a big sigh… You made it to this moment… it’s a new beginning.. (if you are old enough, you remember this saying)

challenge
I sent one of my gals on assignment yesterday, show us how many ways our readers can stop, sit, relax for a moment.. She travelled to a retreat… found a comfortable chair and … here are some examples of taking an “adult, TIME OUT” you can’t hear it but there is a water fall in the courtyard… it was very picturesque but you can sit anywhere, at any time… You just have to make the time, to STOP for a moment, and SIT …
I know it is hard.. every time I open one of my devices I find some kind of ad/commercial/video about how to get better, feel better, and how their product will be a miracle cure like no other.. All you have to do is send them your information and buy their product. This Time Out is free…it is all Y O U.
Ok you can do that if that is what pleases you.. but you can also try … listening to your body/mind…and you can’t properly listen if you are constantly on the go… or interacting with whatever noise is coming at you. BUT Y O U CAN…. stop for 5 minutes… and just sit down somewhere, close your eyes, and listen to nothing in particular.. maybe count your breath, in and out…
I recommend, you close your eyes, take a deep breath in… and tilt your head back, and just let it out with a huge big sigh… and feel how your body responds… as you exhale your shoulders actually crop slightly.. and wow it didn’t hurt at all, it wasn’t hard to do… you survived.. Try it for a few more minutes… I know you can do it… don’t be shy, let the sigh be audible if you like… its YOUR moment… After that hard workout… you can treat yourself to another quiet moment, maybe sip on a coffee, drink some organic tea… after all you took a TIME OUT… you deserve a reward… smile…
The best part is you can do it several times a day if you want… if its too hard, try it three for times a week… see if it helps…you can work up to doing it daily… Putting yourSELF first can at times be challenging .. but. you are worth it !!!
This is a cold hard fact…. no one but YOU can make changes in YOUR life, Things happen that we can’t control, but WE can control how we deal with/accept… the opportunities that come our way.

a door
When you tramp though the woods after a snowfall, the air is fresh the day clear, its COLD, cold enough it is keeping most visitors away. I get to be alone in the woods and on the trails, the most welcome sight after tramping through snow and wandering the landscape of sculptured trees and mounds of snow… is the faded yellow door of the small “comfort” station across from the parking lot.
How is February in your part of the world, I love February because it means March is just around the corner. Mind you I’m happy most of the time… I have a secret. I like being happy and I’ve been blessed with knowing joy and contentment in my life. I had to lie down yesterday, for some reason after my morning outing and running around, when I got home I was hit with nagging “unease”…. solution… lie down, turn off, and let the moment pass.
Silence, letting the mind and body simply R E L A X … … let the chattering in the gray matter play itself out…
Works most of the time. Are you good at relaxing, and allowing your body/mind to balance itself – ?- I call it “being Present” … some call it meditating, others call it prayer… I’ve even been told.. “you are doing nothing.”… ok.. call it what you will… doesn’t matter… just try it…
Value your intuition
When you suddenly have an “A-ha” moment or when a thought pops into your mind, it is the Universe sending you a message. As soon as you notice something, you should act upon it right away.
