Good Morning Everyone, yesterday had me visiting a pumpkin display at a farm stall in the east end of the city. Festive colour even though there was a strong suggestion of a rainy day ahead.
Life takes us on many journeys. Some are more pleasant than others. You have all gathered by now that I am a bit of an October junkie. What with the changing colours that surround us as all the hardwood trees start showcasing their fall wardrobes and the stores awash with Halloween decor … its a fun festive time and it will only get better as the Holiday season begins… starting usually in early November.
You ready!!! I don’t know how many times I’ve heard Thriller in the last few days…I actually spent time dancing to it last night… Not kidding.. between that and Monster mash… I’m sure my body thought it was having some kind of “nightmare”..
Today’s message
Multitasking reduces your joy by half
When doing something give it your all. There is joy in everything.

If your mind is always full ….. how can new ideas filter through…. life is still unfolding.. there is no fixed self,… a conversation can challenge your assumptions… to be open is to be free… the mind like the body, must remain supple… if you are to move with the currents of life.
The bigger the task, the more your convictions are tested
Whenever you are undertaking a huge task, you may encounter resistance. Don’t give up, and let your strong resolve carry you to completion.

Good morning, I began my walk yesterday with a quiet determination to get at least 1.5 to 2 miles. Do my best! Skies you can see where having a field day displaying clouds that were full of attitude. It was a holiday here (Canadian Thanksgiving) I expected there would be a lot of activity … so I got myself out early enough to beat the crowds. Luck held out, as I came back to my car, I met my first humans walking their dog, within seconds another couple appeared. by the time I reached the parking lot, there was hardly any parking spaces left.
What a blessing to have had the “world” to myself for awhile.. I found beautiful treasures, and took in the fresh air… ahhhhh it was simply divine.
Have a “let’s do it ” attitude
Even if a task is difficult, keep in mind it is given by the “Universe” and accomplish it.

We all have different ways of feeling and thinking
Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us.

Appreciate the Makoto (Sincerity) of the People who came before you.
Everything we have today was built upon the hard work of our ancestors and the people who came before us. Always remember to be thankful and humble and continue to build on their past successes.

Dancing allowing the music to flow in and around you… letting your body move to the natural rhythms so you harmonize with the world around you is a wonderful way to “let go” of body stress. Q
