Spring

A walk of discovery in the rain the other day. I love the quiet at this time of year, the awakening of the forest floor… the miniature ponds where winter snows have not yet evaporated. The falling rain plops into the standing water, creating beautiful little waves that dance and make merry… New growth hungrily soaks it up. I walked the old road towards the research station…. saw the sign that intrigued me when I first started to explore the area…

It is hard to imagine that this was once a thriving country road, with a tree farms, and other country homes. A speed limit of 60 mph or was it after the metric system came to Canada. ? . Change, the only constant in life!

For those celebrating a holiday week-end… may Peace and Glad tidings warm your hearth this cool misty spring morning.

We are each and everyone of us, “different”… we have our way of thinking and our own lifestyles. That is what makes life interesting. (PL2020.20)

Walking in the rain is exhilarating

Even if you have done it many times before,

put your whole heart into everything you do,

even if it’s something as simple as pushing a button.

…Believe …

This is a new day …

Shrouded in mist… another day begins.

We all have different ways of feeling and thinking. Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. It is important to do our best to have harmonious relationships with everyone around us.

shock

Smile, it helps!

The shock of this past week has just hit home. Woke up and thought !!! NO! and then the truth sunk in, yes... … yes… I bought a car. Was it only a couple of weeks ago, I had to deal with getting a new dryer. oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

repeat after me….

“Always think that “everything will work out”

When you allow yourself to be pessimistic, your thoughts and actions become sluggish. Approach everything optimistically without hesitating.

all things progress as they should…. change is the only constant …. sometimes it is just a tad overwhelming… Life is… no more… no less… … … … u deal with it!

Good Morning everyone. The other day, (yesterday) I gave in to the loud messages I was getting from my body. I felt like the relic you see above. I needed to board up my windows, (close the blinds/curtains) lock the doors and go to bed… my pumps, were not working. I had to face the facts… I was in no shape to navigate the world. In fact, over the last few days I sensed I wasn’t functioning on all cylinders, but you know how it is…Sometimes, even when the body sends hints, we don’t hear them, or if we do.. we ignore them .. because we are “busy”. MY inner voice, had enough of my nonsense… it contacted nerve central and opened the drawer with the neuropathy file in it.. Pain, searing instant jabbing pain got my immediate attention. Took less than 48 hours to have me take to my bed.. and stay there.

Suffice to say, I feel more “human” today, but I will pace myself. (should I bold that statement..?) We did get the snow, rain, ice etc. fortunately it didn’t hit us as hard as predicted. (in my area)… This is the start of a new week. Let’s move forward with a positive attitude. (state of mind)

/Be True to yourself/

No matter how you try to make yourself appear differently you can’t alter your self worth. Just be yourself, and freely express yourself without hesitation.

I was well taken care of by Quincy and Quinn.. both were great ..Quincy slept with me, while Quinn took a nap and didn’t tear the house apart. (she is still a little terror, drags drops, yowls at invisible attackers… tell me again, how old does she have to get before she settles down?)

Yup. took one look out the window saw the snow covered branches, the whole backyard is a white blur. Seems we are in the middle of a weather hiccup. Overnight it was a total down pouring of what was left of the snow clouds… It seems we are to have a cloudy overcast day, while the weather artist mixes up a batch of ice pellets, rain, and then as the temperatures drop again, some kind of snow/ice offering, so Mother Nature can empty a couple more of her miscellaneous storm buckets over the area.

Not likely that I will see the short clad joggers out today, or the sweatpants and hoodie)s) out running errands. Was thinking I’d do something really different today, .. stay home and not visit the woods.. BUT

Let’s see… AHHH. PL 2012.20

To do… or Not to do… There is only one way

Although we may have many choices in front of us, in the end we must all make a single decision. Once we have made up our minds, move forward without hesitation.

Always have presence of mind.

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

Have a good day everyone!

attitude

It is important to take time for relaxation, to just be able to sit back and share time with a friend that doesn’t involve going somewhere, doing something where there are tons of people and a lot of ‘busy” activities. No deadline, no need to be any place special, just time to chill and catch up ..

Be easy going and live your life cheerfully and flexibly.

Strong emotions can be the cause of various troubles. Always strive to have a cheerful and calm state of mind.

Thursday

The snow is melting, yesterday I took the shovel to the big dump of snow on my deck it had been almost shoulder high, … the milder temperatures had me facing a pile of snow only about knee deep. I did clear some, I was (smart) enough to stop when I got tired. If it is mild again today and there is a bit of rain, it should rid me of what is left on the deck. I can put out my lay back and sun chair. Early spring is the best… too cool for most to be out, but I love it, especially when the sun is out. Yesterday my companion was the male cardinal, he was singing away… he is a romantic, he courts his female.=^_^=

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.

PL2015.20

Happy first day of Spring.
