Friday 25th.

Arrived at an empty parking lot and was greeted by the sound of a busy woodpecker. In the distance I could hear the honking of Canada Geese. I got to the water’s edge in time to see them taking off from an open patch of water on the distant shore. It was cool enough, I tried to find the porcupine that used to bide his time up one of the very old and tall evergreens near by, but if he was there, he was well out of sight.

Use Money and things usefully and enthusiastically. Money and things are materials for self expression. Use them joyfully with appreciation.

I came across a video the other night on YouTube… it was a woman talking about her life experiences and how at over the age of 60 – life was different, her thoughts were different and she was offering advice on things that one should never do after the age of 60. Curious I hit play to see what would be so different. She did offer a couple of good suggestions (I only listened for a few minutes) DON’T LIVE IN THE PAST was her first offering, Personally I don’t see this as wisdom to be practiced only after you reach 60. Your thoughts?

Overcast and gloomy here, but.. I don’t care. I’m off to the woods. Till soon.

-busy day/busy mind

found in my inventory of interesting quotes

Ever have a day where it is so busy, you literally miss it, Yes … you lived it … yes it was fun … yes it was positive… but at night as you prepare to lie still .. it comes to you…. you were so busy, you missed it.

Come back to the present … be in tune with now…

appreciate the moment………..it is essential…

PL Precept #1 Life is ART

thanksgiving -appreciation

During the winter, when the birds find water they can have fun in.. they have a splash. The Cooper’s Hawk Dan Cadieux https://www.instagram.com/dancadphotography/ found one day wandering in a stream, he apparently stayed to wade for a good hour giving Dan plenty of time to get a few good pictures in.

These wonderful pictures I get to share with you, is due to the amazing patience and dedication the photographers I work with give to their craft. I so appreciate them and their generosity in sharing with us.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Let’s live with gratitude towards everyone and everything all day today.

Perfect Liberty 2022.21

Today in Perfect Liberty is Thanksgiving/appreciation day. As always there will be a service for special prayers. If you are unable to attend, please spend a few minutes in prayer giving thanks for the blessings we receive.

Here is a small thought to tuck away, and meditate on … it is important to remember. anxious feelings happen to all of us from time to time… it is the wise person who listens and learns from them...

Till soon

daily efforts

a place to sit and contemplate….

You are the result of your daily efforts. Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through.

I actually took a long walk around the bog the other day. It was quiet, the sky was a clear blue, not a cloud in sight. I took my time, treating myself to my own thoughts. Letting my mantra slip in and out, a gentle whisper .. I repeated it.. quietly, letting the sounds carry through the crisp morning air. I encourage others to meditate, make time for themselves.. and I am guilty of not always doing so myself.

Today at a concert, the performer was having a difficult time getting his equipment to function as it should.. sensing his frustration, without saying anything out loud or to anyone, I focused on him and said a silent prayer… He told me later, that he thought he would have to cancel, he’d been trying everything, and then .. bingo.. 2 minutes before air time, he was connected and everything fell into place. (nope never said a word to him… but I know prayer helped..)

I do believe in the power of prayer and positive thinking. I do believe that we are composed of an energy field that wraps itself around us, how we think, feel and act.. affects this energy field. I’ll go even further to say, that music .. which to me, is also “energy” can be a positive influence in our lives.

The bench you see above is at one of the conservation areas I go to. I pass it often. seldom do I take advantage of it.. I prefer instead to walk a little further and sit on one that is further in the woods and often secluded and shielded from the other visitors to the centre.

Are you making time for yourself.? . Are you smiling from within… does the smile on your face, reach and radiate from your eyes?

Here is song to send you into a “dream” space https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=MqgdQnu-Idw&feature=share It is called another Dance in Paris by Dave Renz featuring Larry Marshall

I have always (ok almost always) listened to music with words.. Dave has been introducing me to instrumentals. This is one he wrote for his Dead Drop recordings.

makoto – sincerity

Put your heart into your words. Do you tend to speak in just a matter of fact tone? It is important to put your heart into your words.l

wearing of the green

Avocado on toast

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

mid month 15th.

Being silly can be fun

Here we are mid month. If you were asked, if you take life far too seriously, do you know what your answer would be. Just wondering.

Listening….

Face the speaker, make eye contact and listen carefully. Listening to people is also a form of expression. Listen with Makoto (sincerity)

The above picture is of my elder dog making like he is listening to what is being said. It is always interesting to watch how intently he can become aware of something, listen, and then dismiss what he’s heard based on ??? We may smile, but how often in the day do we do the same or a close facsimile of this same behaviour.

Till soon everyone.. have a great day!

“As a living person you interact with the people and things around you in order to express your feelings. Your life is shaped by the way you express your feelings, each and every day. “your artistic expressions are what make your life a work of art….” If you are ignoring these truths and just living half heartedly going through your daily life not paying careful attention to your repeated actions you will not be able to lead a full life. Life is an accumulation of small moments.” (members guide)

You can only change yourself. Before you start telling people how they should do things, think of how you can be more flexible.
