Appreciate each person’s good points
Everyone is human and has both good and bad things about them. Let’s strive to look for the good points in other so that we can get along.
Peace begins within… Live authentically

Always be cheerful, happy and good humored.
When you make an effort to be cheerful and happy you will naturally begin to feel that way.
The gateway to happiness lies within your reach. It is always open to you, you simply have to know that happiness begins within, Always be yourself, don’t try to be someone you aren’t.
Have you used a stapler lately, mine ran out out of staples, and for a few minutes.. I actually wondered what was wrong with it.. then I had to scramble to remember where the replacements were.!!! finally found, I had a bit of a chuckle as I looked at the stapler to determine how to put the replacements in. Like duh, this was such an easy fix … thankfully I have a “junk” drawer in my office for items seldom used, BUT could be useful one day… Have you used a stapler lately?

Always remember to be thankful and humble – everything we have today was built upon the hard work of our ancestors and the people who came before us. We are here today because the “torch of life” has been continuously passed down.
You create your reality when you begin each day in meditation/prayer
Every experience is a journey and brings awareness.
Have a good day everyone! till soon.

Ever feel like you are on a ride that just keeps going around and around… you’re moving but not going anywhere…
Enjoy the moment while you wait
Things come about when they are meant to happen. Think of what you can do for the time being, and don’t rush the outcome. When you are not having fun, could it be because you are being lazy? Sometimes we feel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything At times like this, just get up and move your body or work your mind to the fullest extent.
Till soon!

World Peace starts from Peace at home.
Your life is a part of the bigger world beyond you. Start with your surroundings and spread peace to the world around you.
Spread your love beyond your borders, out to the entire world. Our world is overflowing with problems. Let’s pray not only for those around us, but for the happiness and peace of the entire world.

You gain strength through your hardships
Whatever you learn easily or master effortlessly tends to be forgotten The lessons you gain through repeated mistakes are what gives you genuine strength. Don’t give up until the very end or you may miss out on the outcome. Think outside the box, and there surely will be another day.

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. (PL2017.21)

I saw there was a bend in the road ahead, should I go straight or take the turn and see where I land? Ever wonder what is around the bend? Driving along the long dusty road, I was enjoying the view, but there was a temptation to see something new.
Life can be overwhelming at times. Not everyday is a holiday, and not everyday, can friends come out and play.
“Now” is always the start of something new. Leave the past in the past. What is important is “what you are going to do now.” Using the present as a starting point, move forward on a path towards improvement and progress (PL2014.24)
Till soon…

We are capable of handling whatever comes our way.
Instead of asking yourself,, “Can I do it?” simply tell yourself ,”I’m going to do it!” Then, give it your best effort. (PL2017.17)
Eartha “hey want to go to the States tomorrow” Me, “sure, ” and as simple as that, the next day (yesterday) we were on the road to Norther NY State. If anyone has information on how to find the Amish community in the area between Watertown and Massena… it would be appreciated if you could drop me a line, we’d even travel further down towards Syracuse.
There is a good Chinese Buffet in Watertown… in the shopping Centre with the Joanne’s and the Dollar Tree. We got there as they were changing over from the lunch buffet to the dinner one. The dinner selection had more seafood. Prices were reasonable the same variety up here would be between 25- 35 dollars on a week-end.. For two yesterday it was under 40 for both of us. Incl. tip.
Yes it was dark when we were driving home.. but Eartha was a pro… it was a breeze for her..
Have a great Sunday everyone…. oh.. in the States, we found less Xmas cheer in some stores, we were told they wanted to focus on Thanksgiving.. Up here, Xmas decor and merchandise is in full swing. (was looking for that “ugly” sweater.)
Cheers – Till soon!

YOUR smile can create an instant connection.
A warm smile brightens everyone around you and has the power to break down barriers between people. (PL2017.13)
I am enjoying my newest discovery, doing puzzles on the computer/actually iPad. No puzzle pieces all over the table for the cat/dog to discover and want to rearrange. Just good music (I get to listen to Trow’s set from last night and simply REST/unwind) With the cooler weather slowly descending on us, are you prepared for the weeks ahead?
For me the adjustment has been the time change. Boy does it get dark early. FYI.. I am cutting back on the early morning visits to woodlands.. not sure how yet, but I am working it through. I hope to spend more time at the health club/gym during the winter weeks ahead. AND I’ve worked on improving my commitment to Self Care!!
Have any of you, had experience with Varuna Crataeva, horstail, or Lindera Aggregata?
Blessings of the day!
