Make today a “give back day”
We can live our daily lives owing to our ancestors, our elders, and the work of our predecessors. Above all kindness for others is the best way to give back.

Find your haven of peace… C A L M
It was very humbling yesterday to realize that the owl was comfortable with my presence at the base of his tree. The chickadees were singing and going back and forth between us. It was really unreal, I was totally mesmerized by it all. He watched me walk away to give the jays their peanuts… the doves, and woodpeckers were happy to get on with breakfast…. He just watched us and seemed content to be part of the morning activities. It ended when a couple of birdwatchers drove up and we got into human conversation. He spread his wings and took off. He was magnificent.
This was was my third encounter with him. Every meeting has been one that seems contrived. Fanciful thinking on my part, maybe… but the encounters are treasured! When he spread his wings he was so majestic.
Your smile energizes the people around you.
A smile has the ability to put others at ease and give them energy. Strive to be the first to offer a smile each day to those around you

Always have presence of mind
If you overexert yourself, you will be easily swayed by emotion. Always put the best Makoto with presence of mind.

Back road to simplicity and charm. Best of all… no snow.
I remember many years back, living in BC, we took a trip into the mountains… my husband at the time was an avid outdoors person. He had booked a rustic weekend,, the overnight was in a log cabin such as the one shown above, only it was in some remote location and totally a surprise to me… we required our own linen, the stove to cook on was wood, and the loo was a walk into the woods to an outhouse. Those of you who have known me for a long time .. know what my reaction would have been. The activity of the day, was fishing on a crystal clear lake from a row boat. the dog loved it.
Live today filled with enthusiasm
Life is an accumulation of the efforts you make, day by day. Live keeping in mind that “today” only comes once and live your precious life to the fullest.

Time and our past make up the pieces of who we are today. Today I would rejoice at reliving that moment in time. I squandered that opportunity,

He swiveled his head to look at me when I spoke to him.. I almost felt he nodded. Talk about a breathtaking moment!

Don’t let circumstances sway your decision. It does not help to overthink things. Sometimes we just need to make up our minds and move forward. PL2022.6

In the stillness of night hear the whisper your name echo and vibrate magically through the galaxy and beyond
Always you are loved beyond measure
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.
