observation… with the fall weather, there have been a lot more visitors to the conservation area, families coming out with the children to take in the fall colours. What is particularily fun is seeing how the faces light up when they see the rainbow of colours presented to them, especially when the skies are a clear blue, and the clouds white and puffy,,,
Reminder, there will be two services this Saturday (21st) one at 10 a.m. and one at 7 pm.
Good morning everyone, happy start to a new week. Jim Robertson has been kind enough to share with me a post he did awhile back of Mer Bleu, this is a location I go to every day and share pictures with you from that location. It is also where the turkeys are. He has done a wonderful photo spread including the video on Mer Bleu… this is the link to his page. Treat yourself to the wonders of Mer Bleu in the autumn he has done an amazing presentation. enjoy.
Express your feelings straight away. It will be good if you could express your feelings as they are to people around you, when you are happy or when you are troubled. Also, it will be a good chance for you to get to know others.
A drive through a rural area that I had not visited in some time … a breath of fresh air, living in a bustling city with constant traffic, near 4 major hospitals, a baseball stadium, and bustling commercial areas, this was a drive that was soothing and restful. Hope you enjoy the doors that we passed along the way,
For more doors please visit Dan’s No Facilities site.. where other door/architecture enthusiast will be posting their doors for this week, https://nofacilities.com/2023/10/12/aug-sept-leftovers/ His post today outlines and gives information on Thursday Doors, should you be interested in posting yourself.
Everyone has their own way of seeing and thinking, There are different points of view and ways of thinking which makes it interesting and creates new ideas. Try to enjoy other’s expressions.

Have a good day everyone… smile …brighten your day and those around you,
Talk about a quiet little hide-a-way. I was just telling a friend who asked how I have been doing the last while how much I enjoyed the change of seasons. We have gone from days on end of above average sunshine and hot weather, to typical fall weather, cool, damp, raining days/nights / with periods of clear skies.
Colours were appearing everywhere, the skies were blue and beckoning. Not so yesterday when I passed by these trees, the rain had pelted down for hours on them, many of the leaves had given up and let go, Change can happen in an instant. When it does, what is there to do but accept. Today is another day.
I came across the picture of the little hide-a-way when I was looking for something else, It struck me as being peaceful. Had me wondering what it must be like to live tucked away like that ,.. is it an opening to a cave, or just a deep overhang.?? I had collected the picture for one of my Thursday door blogs, and today isn’t Thursday, but I wanted to spend time “imagining/dreaming” of just what this little “home” was all about. Anyone out there, does it spark an interest?
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.

Enjoy the day everyone, it comes around only once, tomorrow, will be something brand new.

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.
Give Importance to listening, looking, thinking doing and speaking. Look and listen carefully before making a judgement. Assumptions and hasty conclusions can lead to misunderstandings

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (note the turkeys are watching their backs!!!)
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,

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
Thursday Door … to find a treasure of doorways from Europe taken by wandering photographer MC. (this is a barn building I see every day as I drive to and from conservation area.)
Always be humble. If you work on things with the attitude of asking a favor, people around you will advise you what they have noticed, There is something in fact you are not aware of that you do.
