Be mindful with prayer. If you work on things with a prayerful heart, there will be many things you can be taught,
Perfect Liberty 2023.18

Perceiving equals doing. Each time you notice something, it is a gift from God. Don’t miss this opportunity to act.
Perfect Liberty 2021. 15

YOU are here now, take a minute to reflect on this moment. Each of these pictures will lead you to an “inner” thought, close your eyes, and simply BE. Takes just a minute, then go on with your day. Carry that peaceful moment of mindfulness with you into the day,

Happiness is sharing with YOU,

Friday 17

The path to achievement is “to start with what you can do” Try to find out what you can do towards challenges in your own situation, This will pave the way for achievement.
Perfect Liberty 2023.17

“Give voice to your needs” simple advice .. not always easy to do. We need recall and to notice how we feel, give ourselves time to relax and accept the moment before we move on.

Sometimes we have to accept that we are faced with limitations for a reason.

Friday

Yesterday you saw some of the buildings that caught my eye on the way to Ompah. Here you are seeing some of land I hiked along. To get to the water, I had to go down a steep ravine to a level area .. where I was looking down at the water… it was so inviting that when I came to a wooden set of steps, I ventured down to the water’s edge.

Lesson I learned… If you go down, you have to come back up! Focused on getting pictures, I had not taken into account to get to where I was I had walked down a steep incline, I found the steps while I was walking the grounds searching for another path leading back up to the area where my friend waited in the car. !!

Look at the rocks, the beautiful old fence, weathered and worn but still standing Yes I likely overdid, I didn’t have my walking sticks with me and because the area hosted art shows in the summer weather, the land was cleared of fallen branches and the like. BUT it was gorgeous .. life was good, life was vibrant, the air clear, getting colder yes (we were heading for an evening of snow and dropping temperatures) I WAS HAPPY, JOYFUL AND FULL OF LOVE… fresh air, the silence of open country (no city sounds) Yes, my body had a lot to say about the walking/hiking and the constant in and out of the car… BUT it was worth it. I think we have all had such experiences. If we are going to be here (on earth) we should appreciate and enjoy as much as we can. Peace on earth, begins at home and in our hearts.

Enjoy what happens. People who can enjoy anything happening to them receive wisdom for the next step. Try to work on things without being overly concerned.

contemplate

It’s easier to adapt to something when we find it interesting. No matter how enjoyable a situation is, a slight change in our attitude can make it boring. let’s face any situation with curiosity and enthusiasm.

Sometimes it is not what we see, but what we can’t see that speaks to us,

day of Peace

Change…. we are still in the fall, this snow will likely disappear before the hard core snow arrives, It was so peaceful in the parking lot when I took this picture, Temperatures had dropped, there was no one else around, I was able to take my time and enjoy the moment,

In PL we live with the philosophy that if everyone could learn to express themselves artistically, all the wars around the world would cease, leading to a peaceful society, We believe that in respecting one another and working for each other’s happiness, world peace could be achieved. PL Precept #14 World peace is everything.

Today in PL we have a ceremony (the 1st of each month) called the Day of Peace. it will be held at 10:00 a.m. EST.

Each Person’s peace leads to world peace. First of all, you have to be happy. That happiness will spread and be the foundation of World Peace.

Fact

fact. when you wake up at 7 a.m. – you’ve missed your 6 a.m. appointment

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone,

Thank you again and again…. It feels great if someone tells you “Thank You”, even many times. By repeating this, become a person who comes up with the words “Thank You” naturally.

Friends

Friends come in all shapes and sizes. I’ve been blessed with so many wonderful people in my life. Some I see sometimes, others I may not see often, but always, there is communication of some kind. Alan Watts (Alan Watts was an orator and philosopher of the 20th century. He spent time reflecting on Personal Identity and Higher Consciousness.) believed, we were all One, and friends were an extension of ourselves.

In PL, one of our Precepts is… All is a mirror…. Precept #15

After spending time with a number of friends yesterday, I went to bed feeling elated and pleased. So many different personalities, yet, every single one I visited with, spoke to, spent time with, gave me pleasure by being who they are.. I felt very blessed to have shared time with them. It was like receiving a bouquet of flowers, Each flower, leaf, stem unique… together they were a beautiful vision, and then when you look at each one, you saw/see another kind of beauty .. no one flower was the same, each had /has a personality of his/her own.

Make happiness with willingness. People who like to make an effort can enjoy anything. Those who spare no effort for anything and anyone know the joy of making art. Make an effort with willingness,
Perfect Liberty 2023.6

I had to reread this quote a few times to have it sink in, Does it resonate with you?

“let’s start the day with a positive outlook, looking forward to what we can discover,” PL 2021. 12

Well done is better, than well said.

Time to harvest and gather in the supplies. The cooler weather is on its way, some mornings there is a nip in the air. The little ones are not wasting any time gathering when I put out the feed. The woodland floor becomes alive with little chipmunks and squirrels. The chipmunks are little darlings, they can stuff a peanut on either side of their mouth and still get a third one in before they scamper off to fill their larder.

Depending on where you are, there are areas where the colours are so vibrant they scream out , daring you not to notice, while other areas are still slow to change.

Today being the first of the month, in PL, we celebrate with a special ceremony. We pray for World Peace. Service will be at 10 a,m EST. If you are unable to make it to the church, please take a moment in quiet prayer/contemplation, to remember to practice being a peaceful human being in our/your own world which includes home, school, work and community,

Let’s pray for world peace. The path to world peace will open up with each person’s prayer for peace.
