oh NO
What happens, is I don’t get to walk, and the birds and the wee animals …they all take time to visit other places in the woods.
Strive to overcome obstacles by changing your mind-frame. things don’t always go as planned. When that happens, try changing how you look at the situation or how you are doing things. The outcome is in your hands.

Its Okay to think “This is where it starts” There is always a turning point. It’s important what you do from now.

It actually worked out.. with the filming crew at the site, it gave me time to come back early and do work that needed doing here at the house. I did catch up with a friend, and we did get to work on a project that needed doing. We hadn’t planned it, but life just presented us with the right ingredients. And had my day not been rescheduled for me, I wouldn’t have had time to have a “coffee break” with another friend. There you go! life is good! Not at all what I had planned and expected, but worked out even better, because I got to share it with friends.
PL Precept # 19 – Begin once you perceive. Faca ao perceber, Actue inmediatamente al percibir.

creativity
Good Morning, of course there is another version, but I’m showing you three, having done so by rotating the canvas. Our problems, challenges in life are not on canvas, we can’t just turn them around and visually inspect what is before us, but believe me, they are as complex and full of surprises as a canvas is to an abstract artist.
How will you see your day today, how will you deal with the many and varied opportunities that will appear before you? Will you even see half of them? I know some of my readers are familiar with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, since I’ve had occasion to talk to you about him before. He was a big name on everyone’s lips when the Beatles first took up with him, and wanted to learn more about his philosophies.
Today, I doubt if you said his name, many would know who you were speaking of. He filled ballrooms, coliseums, everyone one wanted to learn to meditate. It was fashionable. How many meditate today on a daily basis? It is like asking the question, do you pray every day…….. Personal questions, smiles, keep the answer to yourself… but think about it.
We are bombarded daily with the goings on around the world. We all want “change’ in some form or another… How many of you stay away from the word “love” or if you use it, keep it in the “social” general greeting part of your vocabulary. I personally don’t know anyone who has not been touched by “love” in their lives. some have the scars to prove it. (shame the word scar is associated with the word, but there you have it) With love comes pain, one seems to follow the other, like rain follows the sun.. and vice versa.
Make today a different day. Instead of doing the same old thing, be creative and do things to improve your day.

my morning encounter
We are all wonderful in our own way. Although results are important, your effort is what is truly precious

I’m testing out a new feeder. Although after seeing what the racoons can do… I now know why so many of my feeders last year got demolished. Guess I will have to plan for the next winter season, rethink the kind of feeders I will need ..
PS.. last winter I’d arrive to find the feeders looking like a cyclone had gone through. Now I have a better idea of just how they got turned over, ripped apart etc. As cute as these racoons are… those little hands and their cunning I think can do a lot of damage.
happy faces
silly me, really, silly me
a funny face is what I saw
those eyes and silly smile
made me lips twitch into a wicked grin
I felt the sparkle in my eyes.
and right away I knew
a page had turned
a new chapter has begun
even the story line has changed
yet in truth, the goal is the same
Nature has been making a gradual change
I can smell the changes in the air
hear it in the chatter of the birds
and the nattering of the squirrels and chipmunks
for sure, with each passing day
this current season is in its final run
the anticipation of what is to come
is reflected in the silly faces
……………………….the teachings of the PL Precepts and Principles are like throwing the I Ching stixs
in the Tao we say, if you think you know the TAO, then you really don’t know it at all.
PL Precept # 15 All is a mirror

PL Principle # 3 I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things.
The world is changing.. (here I go again) the only constant in life is change!
PL Principle # 6 I will not be stubborn, being capture by my own thoughts.
Have a great day everyone.. share your smile with the world. Take time for a silly moment – really SMILE..
Thursday Doors
the little door cut out so the newly hatched can leave when they are ready 
What happens when the Sr. minister of an establishment makes the personal choice not to be vaccinated? 98% of the members/community are vaccinated. Sad that the “world” these days is so divided.
Listen carefully and speak clearly. A good relationship starts from truly understand each other.

Same old places?
Do you find yourself, waiting, hoping that yesterday will somehow reappear?
Today, only comes along once, at midnight it will disappear –
Seize the day, live it to the fullest.. only in doing so, will you live without regrets.
PL Precept # 7 Everything exists in relativity…
