Don’t think “I Can’t” from the start. Begin by taking the first step, then you’ll be able to see what comes next and a path will open .

Aceite, justamente por es tar atarefado. Take on the task even though you’re busy. Eastar ocupado significa estar sendo necessario. You’re busy because you are needed.

When you least expect it. The sun will shine, a friend will call or drop in (these days it will be connect/text) Always you will know you are not alone, you need only be open to the Universe around you. Oyashikiri
Listen carefully and speak clearly. A good relationship starts from truly understanding each other.
Perfect Liberty 2021.5
Sometimes, one is engulfed in a sadness or an over powering emotion that simply defies definition. There is not always a black and white solution. A caring partner/listener will do his/her best to not only listen to what is being said, but to read between the lines, about what is not being said.
The longer a friendship exists, the more the other person can understand and or relate to what their friend is going through, how much that person will actually “say out loud” and /or even acknowledge. Caring isn’t something we can pretend to do, sincerity in word/action is something that cannot be “faked”.
“Listen” and “see” with careful attention and accept each other. Focus your “eyes” and “ears” towards the expression of others without preconceived notions. Then you will be able to see their true intentions.
“I’ll do it later. No, I’ll do it now” – To make progress do anything while it is still fresh.

When fresh snow falls, it lies clean and crisp. As the day progresses, it no longer has the same quality or look, its been walked on, trod on, run across, dropped on…. that initial moment of newness disappears with the passage of time.
No baile das nuvens no ceu
Na lue a clarear, vejo no raio e trovao, na estrela a briilhar
In the warn morning sunm in the newly fallen snow, in the thunder and lightening
and in a sudden rainbow.

PL Precept #11 Always be with God Confie todo a Dios
You can get all dressed up, do your hair, pretend its going to be a glamour day, but no matter how you cut the cake, if there is work to be done, or matters to be attended to that aren’t fun… You have to set your mind to the task and get it done.
giving a presentation can be fun, interesting and certainly if it is appreciated .. rewarding
Usually there is always a lot of hard work and effort that goes into putting/pulling something off in a seamless fashion, or presenting a “brilliant” feature documentary. For a brief time we can look very professional and maintain a certain air of efficiency and know how. BUT, we all need down time, and we all, each and everyone of us, needs time to regroup, to be still, to reconnect with our inner Selves.
Catching up and sharing time with friends.. that is IMPORTANT too. Here Alo was visiting with Sister Qu who is the resident hokyoshi (assistant minister) at the PL Center in Second Life. http://www.secondlife.com
The teachings of PL, the 21 Precepts and 21 Principles, are what help us navigate through the world we live in today… Stay in touch with what grounds you… what keeps you mentally and physically alert and positive. Life is too important to squander.
PL Precept # 15 All is a mirror Todo es espejo
PL Precept #11 Always be with God. Confie todo a Dios.
Obrigado PL por me ensinar amar assim Por ver Deus dentro de mim e em qulquer lugar
Thank you PL for teaching me to love, to see God within me, and everywhere around.
From my home to yours – Love now and always
With one thought, “the world” will change. Changing your way of thinking will make a difference on how you perceive the world.
Express your appreciation with enthusiasm. Appreciation is the driving force for progress and development.

A thankful heart leads to happiness. When we really pay attention, we are surrounded by many things we can be thankful for, the society we live in, the kindness shown to us by others. You will be able to find true happiness when you can see and appreciate these things.
It’s Okay! God is watching over you. Things turn out for the best. Don’t be captured by momentary troubles but continue doing everything with sincerity.
Yesterday we had visitors at the feeders. I first caught sight of the red wing blackbird in the morning ..at Dewberry, they were shy, cautious.. staying well off while I refilled the feeders. I was happy to see that the female Grosbeaks that have been there .. were still there, they were patiently waiting .. since I had missed the previous day, they were keen for the sunflower seeds to put out. they didn’t waste anytime getting to the “tables”. It wasn’t long before the happy melodies of contentment was the filling the area.
They were in greater number at Mer Bleue, Kevin who was at the feeders later in the day, saw them too. Don’t know how long they will stay, the milder weather of the past week, brought them to the area. They like marshland which the bog will give them the environment they enjoy, but today the temperatures have dropped. It is around the freezing mark, and it will drop further before the day is out.
We are all wonderful in our own way. Although results are important your effort is what is truly precious.

Take action now rather than later. Things you notice are hints from God. Be thankful and take action immediately.

It is cold, but it is sunny, whatever you do .. enjoy! Stay safe and BE HAPPY!
Hmmmm .. these appeared on my desk…. I know they are for something or other, and that they insert into my PC thing on my desk. The fact that they had been taped so carefully to the top of the file cabinet next to me, means that I didn’t want to loose them. A puzzle to start the day. Oh look a word with two z’s in it. hmmmm can I use that in “Words with Friends” probably not, I don’t recall ever seeing more than one Z when I’ve been playing. I’m beginning to sound like a humming bird.
Because I found these two items, does that mean that they were lost?
Since my desk was moved, my light doesn’t work…. hummm was the cord somehow unplugged, or is the bulb broken??? Darn it could be “one of those days”
“”light bulb” I found a wireless keyboard the other day… I wondered then, how would I get it to work if I wanted to use it… hmmmm would one of these thing a-ma bobs… talk to the keyboard… I wonder….
I think… I will keep Precept #16 in my mind…. ALL THINGS PROGRESS AND DEVELOP
and if EACH MOMENT IS A TURNING POINT Precept #18 I will wait for Precept #19 BEGIN ONCE YOU PERCEIVE to deal with these two objects.
I ask you, is this a form of procrastination? or is it my mind being lazy?
NO, not because one is sad, or out of sorts, nor is it a bad day. It just isn’t a sparkling moment. That warm comfortable zone when you lie half asleep, semi awake….. your precious friend is nestled beside you… breathing softly still in dreamland. when you move, she shifts ever so slightly to maintain that contact.. you can see the sliver of light coming in between the gap in the curtains… It is time to get up. another day is calling.
There is always a solution. Always believe that there is a solution to any problem that comes your way, and work with conviction to solve it.

Take care of things as they come to your attention. When something comes to mind, it is a sign from God. Take care of whatever comes to mind right away.
