Crows.. yes!!! my crows are back….
I delight at spending time with them. I pull up and maybe there is one crow in sight, by the time I’ve turned in and parked…. they have begun to gather. They are not trusting of my big honking Nikon, so I pull out the trusty cell… and get a few snaps in before they wise up to my ruse.
Be very careful about doing things you really like. Do everything in moderation. When you overdo, you’ll lose your balance.

Look around, red is the prominent colour of the month. Red spiritually effects, stability, security, grounding, courage, action, physical and emotional survival. Red – physical energy, passion, courage, power, will and desire.
Red makes you feel passionate and energized its the warmest and most dynamic of the colours – it is said to trigger opposing emotions. Seeing so much red in the fashion outlets, I had a look in my wardrobe, not a red shirt, blouse, or top.. hmm actually I seem to be surrounded by shades of black, grey and earth colours.
Be a person who can recognize the sincerity of others. When you put your whole heart into things, you will be able to notice the sincere acts of others in the subtle things they do, and appreciate them that much more.

We are responsible for our choices in life. I strive for happy =^_^=… what about you…
Decembers’ full moon is commonly known as the Cold Moon – a Mohawk name that conveys the frigid conditions that can occur at this time of the year. Full Moon was De. 18. at 11:37 pm. the last quarter will be Dec. 26 at 9:26 pm.
There is something about a winter moon that has always captured my imagination. I remember in days gone by I would meditate facing the moon, three candles lit, (3 being a magic number) and I would make 8 wishes … (8 also being a magic number) I would get a sandalwood incense from Chinatown.. don’t ask why, it just had to come from Chinatown.
On nights when the moon is nearing its fullest time and then for several days after I always feel that there is an extra energy that is making the rounds… true in other seasons, but the winter for me is the most magical of all for the moon’s mystical aura to be present. Add that the Winter solstice is happening, wow, for the sensitive, this is a “stirring” month.
Free yourself from being overly attached. Overthinking hinders ideas and actions

【Enhancing yourself】 There is no one who doesn’t want to improve himself, but surprisingly few people work harder today and tomorrow than yesterday to improve. It’s the accumulation of daily effort to improve yourself.

PL Precept #1 – Life IS ART!
Be who you want to be and love unconditionally!
An outdated address book you just don’t want to throw away – it has all the names of friends who have been and now are gone… holds memories some you really can’t remember all that well, while other names bring back chapter and verse of a special time in your life..

Another day, seems the sun has come out to play. Wonder what adventure will come my way.
Change your mind, thinking “It will be alright” Do the best you can without being overly attached.

Some days just happen. Today when you look, the light frost and snow will be everywhere, give it another hour or two, and……………. who knows what you will find,
I am thinking I might try a slice of dark Christmas fruit cake with a slice of Gouda cheese.
Peace on Earth – Goodwill – Love – Silent Night.
Do things joyfully, enthusiastically engage with what is in front of you.

I was delighted yesterday to meet up with Ed Hodgins, where else in the woods of course… smiles… how does that song go, “if you go out to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise”.. lol mine was meeting up with Ed who I had not seen for awhile. he was of course out taking pictures, he had his faithful camera at the ready, and a bag of “goodies” for the birds to entice the feathered beauties.
We, the “birders” who enjoyed the Evening Gros beaks last year, are waiting to see if they will return this year. I certainly hope so.. They were delightful last year. Meanwhile I asked Ed if he had any pictures of wild turkeys, and he did! (see two top pictures). Kevin bless his heart, remembered I was looking for Wild Turkeys and sent me footage from his inventory of pictures.. I get to do my turkey post!
No, I have no idea why I had this interest in the turkeys this year.. they just seemed to catch you fancy, but were always eluding me when I had my camera with me. Does anyone out there know what their vocal call is? They are always on the move like in Kevin’s picture when I see them or eating in some farmer’s field.
What is normal is different for each individual. Everyone has a different way of thinking and doing. It’s important to understand others’ feelings.

Have a happy turkey day… wander and just BE…

2021/12/09 [True joy] You won’t be able to enjoy real joy (the joy of the soul) if you try to get pleasure by taking it easy, such as “Is there anything good? The joy of being able to solve difficulties and difficult problems, and the joy of being able to do something that pleases others, are the real joy that no one can take away. -translated in Japan ..

Deck the halls and bring out the holly, everyone is so jolly and bright, especially when they think of the coming holidays and how wonderful it will be to visit and celebrate with friends and family. No matter the reason, this is a time when there is a lot of social “happenings’ Keep in mind that not everyone is in a position to celebrate, or can. More than ever we need to be aware of the world around us.
Energy springs from your smile. A smile makes you and others cheerful and energetic.

Guess who got out into the woods today… It was on the cool side, the water had a layer of ice on the top, snow lay in some areas, the chill was present. No matter, I loved it.
Do things joyfully. Instead of taking it easy. Enthusiastically engage with what’s in front of you. You’ll enjoy it more.
