Be cheerful and friendly with those around you. Other people can sense how you are feeling. So, be cheerful.

Today was my husband’s birthday. When my iPad reminded me (I had not removed it after he passed) I was jarred from a sound sleep to one of sadness. He would have loved walking the path (shown above) somehow I know he’s found peace…
A minute of thought/prayer is worth more than an hour of talk. Psalm 141:3
Never shy away from letting someone know you care.
Be in tune with the feelings of others. Let’s start by trying to understand other peoples feelings.

If being near or around water is something that you enjoy, find soothing, Ottawa is the place to explore. The city and the surrounding areas are full of wonderful places to explore and discover.
Good Morning… ordinarily I would have cropped this picture,, I was interested in the fallen tree when i stopped to grab the picture – but when I saw it on the screen I was loath to cut away the quiet flowing water.. it was so beckoning. stretching its shimmer across to the distant shoreline. I left it. LOL my choice.
You can only change yourself. Before you start telling people how they should do things, think of how you can be more flexible.

Same moment, different way of recounting the moment.
Snow has melted, leaving the trees waiting patiently for the sun to warm the ground around them, and to release the awakening sap so that their new buds will begin to appear. Perhaps not as awe inspiring as the fall when they are wearing their autumn colours, but it is peaceful, quiet and there is an anticipation in the air. See the sign, I first showed it to you a couple of years back. By the end of this growing season, it will be interesting to see how much more it will be hidden by the growth around it.
When you face difficulties start with anything you can do. When you are able to grasp the situation, you will surely be able to notice something that you can do.

It looks so quiet, but it was anything but.. the woodlands was alive with sound and activity – yet in its own way, it is the “eternally quiet – that never is…_ https://youtu.be/1jFwdGho1IA my first time to notice and be aware of the grouse… I’d heard the sounds before, but never knew what it was.. Yesterday I was with someone who knew… what a Wow moment.
Ancestors’ Day ceremony is today at 10 a.m. If you cannot make it to the church for the actual service, please take a moment to pray (moment of silence) to express your gratitude for the love and virtues of our ancestors. Ask for protection and guidance, that we may continue to live the PL WAY.
You can be with God by having a prayerful mind. Let’s pray for World Peace. We are all one big family. Let’s start by praying for the happiness of those around us.
investigate and ask yourself “what is the story here? am I being honest with myself?
observe but try to not get caught up in it
Processing difficult emotions can be tricky… especially when they are unpleasant .. it can overwhelm the mind. … your thoughts and feelings will come and go.. they are constantly changing all the time, like the weather. Clouds, wind, rain (weather) it is constantly changing they are happening, but they are not the sky… allow for the moment, and let it go. ie. like a cloud dissolves in the sky. Let your mind rest!
Start by thinking “Let’s do it” Once you decide to do something and put your whole heart into it, things will start moving forward.
have you heard the expression – caught between a rock and a hard place
Uh Huh, it happens.. when you least expect it, you realize that somehow, somewhere, you took a wrong turn, or made a choice that perhaps didn’t lead to where you thought it would.
Take action without thinking too hard. No matter how hard you try to foresee the future, you really don’t know how things will turnout. Do your best and see how it plays out.
Everyday I wander the woodlands, sometimes I journey further than others, mostly I get out and enjoy the day no matter the weather … One of my blessings is meeting new friends, Fiel is such a friend, I would see him taking his family for their daily walk along a long stretch of country road where he can explore and enjoy stretching his legs and taking in the weather… like me.. he just loves being outdoors.
What I discovered, is he had an eye problem pressure in his eye that medical treatments just couldn’t correct, eventually he had to have one eye removed. Still his spirit was strong, he was positive, he rested, he took his medication, he continued to walk… and now he is a beautiful unique personality that gives as much pleasure as he gets. Life does present us with challenges, our existence would be dull without these opportunities to explore our uniqueness. His heart beats strong, he loves giving kisses, he doesn’t hesitate to embrace his friends with enthusiasm and sincere appreciation he joyfully gives the gift of friendship – unlike humans, he doesn’t overthink a situation, he simply lives in the moment.
You are the result of your daily efforts. Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through.

There are times when circumstances give us momentary moments of angst. It happens, but always, always there IS a solution.
It is interesting because it is difficult. In order to overcome difficulties in your life, you need to think hard and be creative. That is why life is always interesting,
