Wednesday

So many time I see kindness, passers by moving aside when they see you are carrying a heavy bag of groceries, wait patiently while an elderly person is crossing a busy lane in a parking lot, or a mother with children is wanting to move the children along when they are blocking an aisle by being “children”. What I don’t see, is a nod of thanks.. or even a smile that the kindness happens/happened.

We are all living in a world that has become indifferent to the hurry up attitude, or demanding schedules that keep us constantly on the move. I know… life gets busy, life happens, and we all have deadlines or places we have to be. Many of us function at times on auto-pilot, it happens. May I take this opportunity to ask you… myself included in this reminder… say thank you more often, and smile, nod, recognize that we are not alone trying to maneuver in this hectic day to day of modern living. A smile can change someone’s day…. even if is for a moment.

Your enthusiasm, will pave the way

Your enthusiasm will fuel your efforts and creativity, and will spread to those around you, driving new developments.

PL2019.7

Smiles and laughter can be a balm on an “off” day.

Have a good day dear friend…. till soon.

Tuesday

Don’t give up! Stick with it, as many times as it takes

Sometimes you want to just throw in the towel and say, “I give up” but, that’s the time for you t dig deep and push through. Your sincere effort will invite a good outcome.

PL2020.6

Have a good rest of the day, and week. Cheers.

My sentiments. I have had this lingering cold/flu now for almost 6 weeks, maybe even more.. Who knows anymore, and who cares… I guess I do. However on the bright side… I have had a lot of REST if not always fitful. Come to think of it… In looking back, I don’t think I’ve had a real bout of “sickness” in recent years, So I guess I should consider this a positive. My body must have been or has been in need of R E S T … In my “awake” times, I have noticed that the cats are aware of my comings and goings.

For instance, I discovered that YouTube has these cat/dog videos.. Before leaving for my morning ritual of nature walks (a way of saying, I go into the woodland I favour to spend time with the birds) I started to put on the telly for them (since moving into an apartment)(reasoning that when I had the house they had 3 floors to run around in and explore)… I started out just putting on Asian music, soothing … calming… (I enjoyed it right) but one day I saw that there was a video for cats.. with birds and animals, nature sounds, running water, feeders…. well … instantly I had two very interested felines perched on the end of the massage table.. totally fascinated. So I now have two cats who when they see me getting ready to go out, wait for me to open the magic window. Amazing.. my cats have discovered technology.

Today’s message..

Your smile energized the people around you.

A smile has the ability to put others at ease and give them energy. Strive to be the first to offer a smile each day to those around you.

PL2020.5

Ps. for those of you who knew /know that I have been after the free Genus head being offered in SL (Second Life) Today was my lucky day, I succeeded in getting the female head at 5 a.m. my time… (2 a.m. SL time).. they had such a tremendous response, their vendor went down, I did get the male head the first day I knew about the offer and went in to try my luck. I will do a write up on the head later in/on my Virtual Blog. Meanwhile if you want to see the male, I have posted his picture on my Flickr page. (grid status .. there were over 30,000 people online at the time.) (offer was limited for only so many days)

Cheers, till soon.

The everyday things you do will show when it really counts

If you have a tendency to be careless about everyday matters, you cannot expect to perform well at crucial times.

help please

I am revamping one of my characters for a short story I’m doing.. When doing her face. I used a skin from a designer I don’t often use… I was getting ready to make changes when it struck me that the face looked very familiar to me. I know I’ve seen it many times but I can’t place the series she was on. So I left her face the way it was… and I’m building her character around the persona I’m getting from her. If by chance her appearance rings a bell .. could you let me know.. please. and thank you.

Now for today’s quote.

It is not fun to be stuck in one place

Instead of being captured by what’s in front of you, strive to broaden your horizons

PL2022.28

Cheers everyone, have a great Sunday.

the character was middle aged , she was not the lead, but had a supporting role and was seen regularly. She was angular and thin just like the avatar you see above

How many times have you walked into a room only to discover, you don’t recall why you decided to get up and go into that room? You knew with certainty you were on a mission. Then when you get into the room, you look at your computer, the clutter on the desk, and can’t for the life of you, remember what you got up for, I admit it has happened to me a few times, but nothing so serious that I worried about it. If its important, you’ll remember, words of wisdom … there is enough going on in the world today that we should think about… I think someone wrote a book, “don’t sweat the small stuff”.. — so how are you today? Survive the festive meals, family get togethers? Yesterday came and went in a blur. Today is another day, a new beginning..

PL Precept # 1 Life is Art.

Let’s interact proactively with an ever-changing society.

Society is always rapidly changing with the times. Keep our eyes and mind in tune with these changes and learn to deal with them proactively.

PL2014.27

Thinking of you and yours during this special time… Be well.. be happy,

ahhchooo

It is no joke. The nasty germs are running wild. Time to stay in…. steam the room… drink lots of fluids, and stay warm, Thought I was doing so much better… Mother Nature, had different ideas… She has made it clear I’m not out of the woods. I have to stay quiet, and stay warm. I did forgo a much anticipated evening out Xmas eve.. BUT it wasn’t enough.. seems I have to lie low for a little longer. How are you doing? You managed to stay healthy ???

Make today a memorable day

Let’s try to put our whole heart into whatever we say or do, as our unique signature

PL2022.26

Today is just another moment in time.. Tomorrow is another day.

decorations

I kid you not… these decorated wonders are all under one roof. AND I did not post all the pictures. Their displays take my breath away. This is in a home with dogs… many dogs…. yet, except for the odd ornament that a whippet/borzi wants to rearrange…. their decor stays pretty much as is till after the new year. This is a house of Joy and Wonder. thank you Steve and Paul for the tour of your beautiful displays.

Be Cheerful and Friendly with those around you.

Other people can sense how you are feeling ... so.. be cheerful…

Pl.2022.24

Happiness Always… Oyashikiri
