I’m listening – really? – showing off – had enough
They really do have personalities, and days when they are social and other days when they want to just “chill”… they really do know how to show off tho’ and that is always fun to watch. (formatting was being difficult, hope that the captions line up when I hit publish.
Let’s interact proactively with an ever-changing society
Society is always rapidly changing with the times. Keep your eyes and mind in tune with these changes and learn to deal with them proactively.

I see I had a typo I missed, a memory from 2008 how basic and different the technology was.. The avatars today look so different, yet back then, the one you see above was thought to me so advanced compared to earlier ones. Life is just a parade of changes.
The weather forecast is for gray, cloudy and cool days even into the week-end. Let’s hope that changes..
Today’s PL message…
Value those who are nearest to you.
It is especially easy to overlook how wonderful your partner/spouse or other family members really are. Always remember to respect and value one another.
The PL newsletter is out, if you are not on the mailing list, please let Rev. Hiroko know. It will include the calendar of events and special services.

The best timing to take action is when you notice it
When you take note of something, it is a signal from the Universe, that you should take care of it right away.
This is the “cold” season, have you tried brown rice roasted tea? If you are already a fan, try making it with fresh ginger…. (for the brave, crushed garlic (fresh) helps with coughing.) I am going to make a carrot, spinach smoothing heavy on the ginger, garlic and celery. (I’m adding beets)
Stay warm.

Good morning… thank you all for your encouraging words, Quinn and Quincy are getting along very well. They settled in very nicely, he is a gentle “old” soul, watches out for her, and doesn’t let her get away with any of her nonsense. He is a little over 2 years old and she we think is about 10 months old.
Today the 11th we celebrate Ancestors’ Day in the PL community. Through this ceremony we express our gratitude for the love and virtues of our ancestors and ask for their protection and guidance so we can continue to live the PL Way!
If you cannot be with us today at church .. take a moment of silence around 10 a.m. to express your appreciation …give thanks… life is good…
Till soon.

You gain strength through your hardships
Whatever you learn easily or master effortlessly tends to be forgotten The lessons you gain through repeated mistakes are what gives you genuine strength. Don’t give up until the very end or you may miss out on the outcome. Think outside the box, and there surely will be another day.

Little Sister sharing Thanksgiving with friends.
We are capable of handling whatever comes our way.
Instead of asking yourself,, “Can I do it?” simply tell yourself ,”I’m going to do it!” Then, give it your best effort. (PL2017.17)
Eartha “hey want to go to the States tomorrow” Me, “sure, ” and as simple as that, the next day (yesterday) we were on the road to Norther NY State. If anyone has information on how to find the Amish community in the area between Watertown and Massena… it would be appreciated if you could drop me a line, we’d even travel further down towards Syracuse.
There is a good Chinese Buffet in Watertown… in the shopping Centre with the Joanne’s and the Dollar Tree. We got there as they were changing over from the lunch buffet to the dinner one. The dinner selection had more seafood. Prices were reasonable the same variety up here would be between 25- 35 dollars on a week-end.. For two yesterday it was under 40 for both of us. Incl. tip.
Yes it was dark when we were driving home.. but Eartha was a pro… it was a breeze for her..
Have a great Sunday everyone…. oh.. in the States, we found less Xmas cheer in some stores, we were told they wanted to focus on Thanksgiving.. Up here, Xmas decor and merchandise is in full swing. (was looking for that “ugly” sweater.)
Cheers – Till soon!

Be creative in your efforts
If something is not going well, take a step back and look at how you are tackling the problem. There is sure to be something you can improve on. (PL2014.16)
