Today and everyday – Believe in yourSelf.
When you look in a mirror.. take a good look at the “person” looking back at you. A few times now I’ve not really recognized the woman who gives me a startled look, when I glance her in passing by the bathroom mirror that I can’t ignore.
From a closet size bathroom (in my previous home) to the ballroom size one I have now… it has been an adjustment. I think that in the past, I seldom if ever really looked at or in a mirror unless I wanted to check something…ie. my hair before leaving the house…. even then, it has not been a priority.
My sister and I have had belly laugh chuckles.. because we’ve ( I won’t say which of us) has arrived at a choir practice to have a choir mate quietly give us a whisper… )
Yesterday I woke to a sound of continuous knocking on my door, I was horrified to find out that it was after nine, I am usually up and out of the door by 7:00-7:30 ………. do you know what I did? Something I’ve never done ..ever. I answered the door and promptly went back to bed. AND … I gave myself permission to stay in and not go out at all .. all day!!!! in fact, except to get up to eat and check my messages.. I spent most of the day.. “in bed”. Dearest friends .. that was a first…. not because I didn’t feel well, or ached anywhere, no.. I simply wanted to sleep.. so I did. Wow.. is this a sign of “maturity”…
Can it be true.. I actually had a day of doing “nothing” except what I felt like doing…….Wow.. double wowzoooooh earth shattering isn’t it.

Young or old, we should never stop moving, sharing, laughing, exploring, discovering and expressing our individuality. Life is to be lived.
Don’t let someone else, or some”thing” , rain on your parade.

The church grounds are so welcoming and peaceful at this time of year. We are blessed to have huge wild green space behind our land, so there is always a quiet hush as we approach the grounds.

lundi- music
Some days are better than others. However, every day you are part of is a special day. Welcome each new day, there are opportunities around every corner. We need only be open to the “adventure”
Whether you are staying close to home or going on an errand, the world around you is forever changing. No two days are alike.
No matter the venue, the music will still wrap itself around you and whisk you away on a musical odyssey. Seasons come and go… life keeps happening… so why not enjoy it.
PL Precept #7 Everything exists in relativity
Music is everywhere, find what you enjoy… make time for YOU.

It isn’t always important to be doing “something”
It is OK, to allow yourself to do “nothing”
Leave your cell phone in the house, or in another room, turn it off.
When was the last time you looked up and simply took in the vast blue sky, or counted the fluffy clouds drifting overhead.
PL Precept #20

There was a time when we could enjoy quiet moments of reflection, when there wasn’t an electronic device in every room. We basked in the quiet of the day, we sat outside on the porch or front stoop and enjoyed the day/night. Neighbours going for a walk, or coming home from work, going out for the evening, walking to the bus stop, the pace was slow and leisurely. And…. and…. people waved and stopped to say hi.. good evening/day….
All that has gone away. I’m told that people don’t even have time to play, they are always rushing to get something done/finished/started. Hobby, what’s that?
I have been in my new home now for just a little over a year, it has been a transition, from a house to an apartment . I am still only now realizing that I’m still “adjusting”
Its too early to really talk about it.. but I at least have now accepted that the change.. long overdo… was inevitable.

You can run, you can try to hide,, but you can never escape the thoughts and feelings you carry inside. We think we are alone, but always, no matter where we go, where we are, the “Universe” is watching over you.
