Monday

sanctuary

When I need to regroup, find my balance, my calm… this is where I go.. the quiet, the bliss.. ahhhhh

Geese flying overhead, their honking a reminder that spring has arrived. the tapping of one of the resident woodpecker drumming out his determined search for food. All wrapped around me surrounding me in the comforting embrace of nature’s embrace. I’d come home!

I felt strong enough to venture down the trail, it was a beautiful day, still early enough that I had the whole acreage to myself.

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point.

For many weeks I have been sidelined by a “health issues” that kept me away, it was so therapeutic to once more be under clear blue skies, my feet walking along the well worn path. Nature is healing. It is gift that we so often overlook and take for granted.

Have a good start to the week everyone!

Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving, in PL. The 21st of every month, service is at 10 a.m. Please if you can’t join us in person…. take a few moments around that time, to close your eyes for a few seconds/minutes and simply say a silent Thank You for your many blessings in life. It is a day of sincere appreciation.

Sunday

Bleak overcast, dull skies, off and on rain, eventually one has to say enough is enough. I find I’m not interested in the many dramas, cheating, killings, negative presentations on the telly. So I took to the internet and found myself a colourful landscape with little critters wandering around. Flowers in bloom everywhere.. little birds flying from branch to branch. Much more relaxing.

My avatar who worked this photo opportunity was happy to get her hair redone, new outfit to wear… all in all a productive few hours.

How about you, I’ve been catching up on my reading, I’m blessed with fabulous bloggers who live all over the world and share stories of life in their part of the Universe with colourful photos and brilliant writing. Due to my recent medical “issue” I’ve gotten way behind in my admin part of my “writing”… However, I have been reading and enjoying.. forgive my lack of immediate response.

Lately I have been totally captured by an Ai. artist who is producing and putting out Soul Blues .. he/she is all over FB and Instagram. I have mixed feelings about how fast Ai is appearing everywhere in my world. Just seems impossible to avoid it. I will leave a sample of his work at the end of this post.


Put your heart into your words. Do you tend to speak in just a matter of fact tone? It is important to put your heart into your words.

Saturday

a little hide-a-way

tucked far away

a distance from any super highway

an idyllic get-a-way

where I watch the sheep rest & play

and lazily let the days

drift from April to May.

I am sooooo ready.


PL 2022.18

PL Precept #15 All is a mirror

jeudi

When we see something but can’t get to it easily. Do you persist at trying to get to where you want to go, from the exact same place you are standing, or do you try another avenue., Do you consider other alternatives? Do you ask yourself the question, “is it important, do I really need to go, or be there?”

Every day, we are faced with having to make a decision of some kind or other. It could be a simple decision, should I jay walk or should I walk to the corner where there is a cross walk? Do I want to eat now or in half an hour? There is no one else to make those decisions for you, they are one’s you make on your own.

What we forget is that, we are responsible for our own actions. If you decide to cross where there is no cross walk or light, then you are assuming the responsibility for your actions.

The road ahead isn’t always without it’s challenges, but it will always lead us somewhere. There is always other possibilities around a corner/bend.

… always …try to start your day in a positive way….

PL Principle #3 I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things.

Tuesday

Give importance to listening, looking, thinking, doing and speaking

Look and listening carefully before making a judgment. Assumptions and hasty conclusions can lead to misunderstandings

A minute of thought – is worth more than an hour of talk

Don’t let circumstances sway your decision. It does not help to overthink things. Sometimes we just need to make up our minds and move forward.

Saturday

A wooly face that always makes me smile.

Everything that happens to you is material for growth.

Approach everything with firm belief that, “it will turn out for the best” Anything can be used as material for progress and development.
