Good Morning Everyone, yesterday had me visiting a pumpkin display at a farm stall in the east end of the city. Festive colour even though there was a strong suggestion of a rainy day ahead.
Life takes us on many journeys. Some are more pleasant than others. You have all gathered by now that I am a bit of an October junkie. What with the changing colours that surround us as all the hardwood trees start showcasing their fall wardrobes and the stores awash with Halloween decor … its a fun festive time and it will only get better as the Holiday season begins… starting usually in early November.
You ready!!! I don’t know how many times I’ve heard Thriller in the last few days…I actually spent time dancing to it last night… Not kidding.. between that and Monster mash… I’m sure my body thought it was having some kind of “nightmare”..
Today’s message
Multitasking reduces your joy by half
When doing something give it your all. There is joy in everything.

A Door, doors are built to allow us access to a building and then to leave it. While we are inside, we are protected from the elements and the world outside.. The door is our method of returning to the outside world and the chaos and cacophony that is forever trying to invade and influence our “Quiet “‘
The door comes in a wide variety of colours even shapes and sizes, the dictionary says it is a “a hinged, sliding, or revolving barrier at the entrance to a building, room, or vehicle, or in the framework of a cupboard.” I have seen doors that are imposing and others that are just sturdy and practical. Think about it … where would we be with a door.?
PL thought 2017.18
Welcome the new while respecting the old
Every generation brings forth new and positive changes, but also relies on the wisdom of the past. Be able to appreciate both and take the best from each.

Sometimes, the day begins and we wonder how we will get through the day… The air and energy around us is heavy with pessimistic vibes, Then someone smiles, a genuine greeting … and you feel the heaviness lift. A smile can work wonders.

PL Precept # 1 Life is Art
Oyashikiri
The excitement of life comes from expressing your individuality.
1st day of month = Day of Peace, service 10:a.m.
The other day while driving down towards the St. Lawrence (river), which is south of where I live, I was surprised to see that some of the trees were already showing signs of fall. We’ve had a very hot and humid summer, but fall doesn’t officially start till mid/late September. Still, I must admit, I am looking forward to the changing season. That fresh crispness that wafts through the air on clear sunny days,
Pay careful attention without overly straining yourself of taking things too lightly
Having the right amount of tension in your life allows you to notice many things, and that will help you to better express yourself.

Where ever you are in the world, make it a special YOU day. Smile it is such a precious gift.
Curious, have you started preparing for the joyful season coming up? (including the howling time)

Today is day for some quiet reflection. I scrolled thru some of my pictures .. taking trips down memory lane. Found some doors I’d like to revisit.
Then I found the “thought for the day” that I’d like to use today…(is the Universe sending me a message here)
Leave the past in the past, and live fully in the now
Stop living in the past. You can only focus on things that are happening right now in front of you.

re: changing of the computers from laptop to desktop ..I am thrilled to be back using a desk top, I had to practice patience, and depend on the goodwill of friends who helped me out on this project. I am happy to report that as of this moment, I have three working monitors and seem to be able to access programs and files that I think I want. “jai guru dev,
Saying goodbye to the door that opened for me for the last 27 years. Now I am saying goodbye. It is old and worn, but it was “home”…. the handle my husband installed so my aging Mother could get up and down the steps safely… the curtains I found to hang that reminded me of my trips to Japan. The railing that once was sturdy and strong is now slightly wonky and in need of repair… I refused to change the door over the years, inside I bolted it with make shift security blots/chains… it gave me a sense of security…. but really the old door was ready to retire. What does the future hold in store for it.. who knows.. I have to move on. Saying goodbye to the house has been easy, because I know that the time has come for me to turn a page.. but leaving the door… that breaks my heart.
I now live in a new upscale apartment complex with big windows, elevators and steel frame doors… it will never welcome me home like the “old” wooden door. Now I have a concierge and many new “things” to explore and get to know… but you all know… that this “old” door, will never be forgotten.
NO.. I never wanted it painted…. I loved it just the way it was.
Always express your true self with honesty and integrity
