Have you ever

Dreamed of being in outer space, and what it would be like if you could snap your fingers and be somewhere else. These days of interworld travel (via internet) we can be anywhere, and in any period of time. the other day I was in outer space on a floating inter galactic space pad. Last night I was in 1890 Colorado, the old west.. with circus clowns, tents and side shows.

Ok not the same as being stuck in rush hour traffic on the trans whatever highway in modern times. going 20-30 mph in a 100 mph lane.

Still wherever you are, or whoever you are with, time travel hasn’t arrived yet, But we can dream … stuck in traffic we can listen to music, chat with a friend (hands free)………… but ……………… do you take time from whatever you are doing, or need to do…………. to just sit quietly and RELAX with no radio/TV/computer/cell phone? Do you find time to build inner strength, appreciate friendships, sooth mounting stress?

I found a video the other day on YouTube that is just a picture of a fire burning in a fireplace… and… the only sound is that of the wood crackling in the fire. Awwwwww so so relaxing. No hauling of the wood, or having to go find firewood….. then tend it.. all I had to do was sit, close my eyes and enjoy the moment. What a delight….

Do everything with a prayerful mind.

Even if you have done your very best, there are times when you wonder if it is enough. That is when your prayers become most important.

Tuesday

Once you’ve set out to do something, it is your job

Once you have accepted a task, don’t make any excuses. Continue the job until the very end and make sure the outcome is something you can truly be proud of.

PL.2019.23

Oyashikiri

“wander quietly through and along the path.. let the day surround you with the tranquil energy of nature’s embrace.” Q

Let your gratitude show in your words and actions.

When you live each day with a feeling of true gratitude, you and the people around you will be happy. Always remember to express your “thank you’s” out loud.

How was Montreal? We didn’t get into the city we stopped on the West Island for lunch and ended up staying on the West Island. The colours on the drive were awesome..

lotus root

Wow,,… I got the most amazing rush when I had my first taste of these battered lotus root (frozen ready to eat after cooking)… if you can find them, give them a try, I got these from an Asian grocery store… (I cooked them up in my air fryer)(8 min)

Bom dia.. how are you today! I woke to another sunny beautiful day. In our area, the leaves have already started to change colour..

In another couple of weeks, the world will be a kaleidoscope of colour

Strive to live with a positive outlook everyday

Put your whole heart into whatever you do. With motivation you will feel joy and excitement.

PL2017.20

Driving towards Montreal today, the colours should be a m a z i n g ….. skies are crystal blue,

Com Quem Contar, a song from the PL Songbook -Portuguese/Brazil -photo is of Ottawa church.

You can learn from anyone

There is a limitation to your own knowledge and experience. Listen carefully and sincerely to others’ opinion.

PL2015.18

“The possession of knowledge does not kill the sense of wonder and mystery. There is always more mystery.” (Anais Nin)

Bom Dia everyone… Make today YOUR day… S M I L E

A Door, doors are built to allow us access to a building and then to leave it. While we are inside, we are protected from the elements and the world outside.. The door is our method of returning to the outside world and the chaos and cacophony that is forever trying to invade and influence our “Quiet “‘

The door comes in a wide variety of colours even shapes and sizes, the dictionary says it is a “a hinged, sliding, or revolving barrier at the entrance to a building, room, or vehicle, or in the framework of a cupboard.” I have seen doors that are imposing and others that are just sturdy and practical. Think about it … where would we be with a door.?

PL thought 2017.18

Welcome the new while respecting the old

Every generation brings forth new and positive changes, but also relies on the wisdom of the past. Be able to appreciate both and take the best from each.

PL2017.18

Unless you live in a cave.. in everyone’s life there is a door. your thoughts?

If you would like to see more doors from all over the world, visit the No Facilities site, where Thursday there is weekly theme on doors.https://nofacilities.com/2025/09/18/from-fair-to-fair/ – bloggers from all over, participate, it is a wonderful experience and example of people from all walks of life sharing a shared interest.

PL is a philosophy that supports and believes/works towards World Peace.

Instead of candles on a cake, after all this time, a bonfire I thought would be more appropriate. Thank you everyone for your wishes… September is a month of celebration for sure … I think this is the first year in a very very long time I have actually worked.. September was a month of travelling, and exploring. ahhh but.. you have all heard me say, time and time again… Every day is a new beginning.

PL Precept #1 Life is Art

Life is what we make it. I am very blessed to be able to say that in life, I have lived many journeys, travelled many miles, and known and experienced many wonderful and amazing moments that will live in my heart forever.

In PL we believe that everything happen for a reason, we may not at the time recognize or appreciate the lesson(s) we are learning… but

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

Whether you are happy or not depends on your perspective

The things that happen in your life are neither good nor bad. It is your perspective that determines whether the outcome is good or unfortunate.

PL2015.17

I have been truly blessed with a wonderful life and thoughtful, caring friends. Thank you!

Are you alone? Deep in the forest, there is a magic that permeates the air, if you take the time, to sit quietly and allow the natural sounds of the nature around you to visit with you… the merry sound of meandering water over coloured pebbles is joyful as it slides with ease over the multi faceted rocks and gurgles joyfully as it brushes against and through the water ferns and stalks of vegetation that lines its banks.

Always there is something to discover, Know that all around you, there are eyes watching. You might not see who/what is watching, but…. your presence is not unnoticed.

Start by doing the things you notice.

It is impossible to do two things at once. Let your intuition guide you and start with what you can take on now.

PL2017.16

Stay safe, enjoy your day!

Remember how you felt in the beginning

Doing the same old thing monotonously without thought will stifle progress. When you get stuck, go back to the beginning and start fresh.

open road

I took to the open road yesterday and just let the car meander wherever it was inclined to go.

Turn your intuition into actions

Appreciate each intuition your receive and take action right away. By doing so will invite good fortune.

PL2017.5

It was a lazy day, I didn’t want to “have” to do anything.. or interact unless I needed to. The day was lovely, weather cooperated..

Have a great day everyone!!

doors

Doors like people come in all shapes and sizes. Like people, some are more welcoming than others. Each one has a story to tell, and history. How willing are we to explore the possibilities?

Always express yourself for the happiness of others as well as yourself

The happiness of those around you can lead to your own happiness. cultivate a heart to always wish for the happiness of other.s
