jeudi -Doors

Beautiful friendships, so appreciated that Thursday Doors has opened up the joy of sharing. Marie Claude is sharing some of her pictures with us taken from her travels in the Province of Quebec…. Look at the bear! What has he discovered? I loved the flowers flowing out from this barn…. and look at the beautiful presentation of the flowers along the barn walls. You can feel the love and the artistry the creators of these views had… they laboured to create a view for everyone to enjoy!

This world is full of beauty and people who share their passion for nature- Let’s appreciate the positives!

Respect the existence of each other.

The world consists of people with different circumstances sand different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other. (PL2023.14)

In the darkness of night – when only the moon shone bright

two souls were entwined in a moment divine

the night was ablaze with twinkling stars

eternity was born

I was “home”

Two of my special dolls… waiting around for me to decide what to do with them .. where to put them.

I no longer have all my “dolls” I’ve adopted them out over the last couple of years, … you have all heard me say, the only constant in life is change… this morning, Quincy was very patient, he didn’t start yowling at me till he heard me stirring, However, I am learning he is very insistent, I was late getting up… its only 57 degrees here this morning.. nice change… I was enjoying being lazy. He had other ideas.

He was looking for his breakfast. I had walked into the kitchen a few times, and he was right there at my heels… however, I realized I wanted my cell phone.. and turned to go back for it.. he grabbed my leg and held on????? What is this behavior. I know its been awhile since I’ve lived with a cat.. but really!

Today is the start of a new week! A friend and photographer from the church will be travelling to France in a week or so. He’ll be gone for 5 weeks, and will be taking pictures of doors and windows.. two of my fav. subjects. I have lots of windows myself. do any of you know if there is a weekly feature of/on windows, like we have on doors??

Today is a brand new day. Let’s do our best to put our Makoto (sincerity) into all we do

Saturday

Don’t ask, I have no idea. It was in one of my folders. I have a rusted tin man in my backyard, I’ve had him for years, I picked him up somewhere in my travels… I don’t know where this one came from, but he is a beauty. Someone, somewhere had a lot of fun putting him together.. Creativity what joy it is to behold!

“Use any results, good or bad, as a stepping stone. All outcomes, whether positive or negative, are important experiences. Let’s use them wisely for our future progress.” (PL2012.10)

Life is what we make it. Always has been, always will be. (Grandma Moses)

This morning I was awakened by “noise” Quincy was being active, then I heard his food being scattered all over the kitchen floor…I tried to tune it all out, but wasn’t successful. When I got up to see what all the fuss was about, he was sitting innocently enough but was intent on one of his toys.. On closer inspection, it didn’t look like something I’d gotten him.. then it hit.. it was a teeny tiny little mouse. Aggghhhhh, no time for eeks and such… I froze in place myself. I’m 5ft.3 maybe, wear size 7.5 narrow shoe… this wee thing was maybe the size of cotton ball.

Quincy was toying with it. I had to act… I raced out to the back veranda and the recycle bin, grabbed an empty cottage cheese container and its lid and came back, Quincy was now batting at the poor thing. I used the empty container to capture the mouse, and took it outside .. it will have to fend for itself in the wet world outside. What a way to start the day.. it wasn’t even 5:30 a.m. yet.

How is your day?

samedi – sabado

open spaces – quiet places

the moment you realize

because words are spoken

does not make it real

actions speak louder than words

Kuei ( hexagram 38) I Ching

This is a time when you may meet with dualism in your own nature.

This sense of wholeness in a world of contradiction can bring you great depth of character and peace of mind

“now”

Put all your effort into the “now”. You can only do your absolute best right this moment, not in the past, not in the future, but now. _(PL2018.27)

A mustard seed is a very small seed, that when planted it becomes a tree producing millions of mustard seeds. It doesn’t “think” “Oh, I’m really a tree, and I know I can be one, ” Once planted – if properly nurtured, it will just do it. When we believe and have faith that everything will turn out all right, it will be as it should be. The moment is fine, just as it is. whatever that may be.

PL Precept #16 All things progress and develop.

PL Precept #17 Grasp what is most essential.

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point.

Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

It’s easy to place the blame on others and society for the problems you encounter in life. But you are the one with the power to change the outcome. (PL2019.28)
