I feel like this woodpecker today…I can see my mouse, I can see the screen, but the PC is not seeing my mouse… and I can’t work the laptop flat space.. to work the cursor there. So. short and sweet, till tech comes to find out why only half of my system is working.
Wishing you all a happy and productive day. One step at a time, we will get through this.!!
PL Precept # 1 Life is Art!
Oyashikiri
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.

Good advice for me with this move looming in front of me. Have a great week-end everyone!

PL Precept #1 Life is Art
Sometimes it is necessary to be silent and just listen.
PL Precept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.
we are so surrounded by trees, we don’t see that there is a whole world out there
PL Precept #19 Begin once you Perceive

There comes a time in everyone’s life when we have to decide to “come” or “go” .. I have decided that after years of being a home owner, I am going to sell and move to a more genteel style of living. I will leave the home owning, and all that goes with it to a younger generation.
Stop Hesitating
It is more natural for you to be direct and say what is on your mind. Holding back or hesitating is unnecessary.
Your continued efforts will bring happiness
Persevere without giving up. This will lead to great joy in life.

I realized the other day that there is a small bunny living in my front yard. I left it (the front area) to grow however it would in nature, took out lawn and put in ground cover and let the wild flowers grow for the bees etc. I will miss the property, but it is time to leave what had once been a quiet community to the new concrete modern square office like homes that are taking over. Small living spaces, no outside gardens/lawns, just paved/concrete paths, and very very small patches of green.
The only constant in life is change.
There is a Saskatoon Berry tree and a cherry tree in front that offer up a bounty of fruit for the neighbours that used to do jams etc. I expect they will be bulldozed… a shame, but in today’s world it is called progress.
Cheers everyone, till soon.

I’m listening – really? – showing off – had enough
They really do have personalities, and days when they are social and other days when they want to just “chill”… they really do know how to show off tho’ and that is always fun to watch. (formatting was being difficult, hope that the captions line up when I hit publish.
Let’s interact proactively with an ever-changing society
Society is always rapidly changing with the times. Keep your eyes and mind in tune with these changes and learn to deal with them proactively.

where would you like to be today?

for those asking about my fall…. I am coping .. the teachings I have been fortunate to learn/live have helped me cope. The body took a serious jarring, it is taking awhile for my insides to settle down, But… they will. Thanking you all for keeping in touch, I truly appreciate each and every one of you.
Meanwhile.. I live one moment at a time. (shikiri)
If you are going to do it, do it joyfully
If you have to do something, choose to do it with joy and enthusiasm. By doing so, you will experience a deeper sense of beauty

I see I had a typo I missed, a memory from 2008 how basic and different the technology was.. The avatars today look so different, yet back then, the one you see above was thought to me so advanced compared to earlier ones. Life is just a parade of changes.
The weather forecast is for gray, cloudy and cool days even into the week-end. Let’s hope that changes..
Today’s PL message…
Value those who are nearest to you.
It is especially easy to overlook how wonderful your partner/spouse or other family members really are. Always remember to respect and value one another.
The PL newsletter is out, if you are not on the mailing list, please let Rev. Hiroko know. It will include the calendar of events and special services.

Let me see if I have a current photo of Q… she is on the left, that is Dentelle with her, Dentelle is now working on the new cardboard avatar Project, looks completely different.
Dentelle now…
For pictures of avatars past and present in SL, and a birds eye view of SL dating back to 2008, you can visit my Flickr site – https://www.flickr.com/photos/qyhat_la_canaille/
If you are interested in musicals, this is a You Tube of a musical performed by an entertainment troop in SL.. https://youtu.be/oxT9ttc14LI?si=5lo89RunQSzYen3m
In looking through pictures I came across a memory from the early days in Second Life. A trip down memory lane is fun … Back then, the virtual world was new to me, I discovered that even the government was taking a look at this new world/technology.
Check out the old avatars… it was so much fun, the creativity was fascinating to me, remember when we built clothes with building tools… mesh had not arrived. It was a different world. The sign when I see it today, wow… it (SL) did offer a ton of opportunity, and those who stayed and grew with the “internet/pixel” technology… have a lot of good memories. Not to mention experiences of a lifetime.
Your feelings of appreciation become real when you express them.
Express your feelings of appreciation by actually saying “Thank You” out loud or by doing something to show how you feel. Not only will the person you are thanking feel good, but you will too, leading to better things in the future. (PL2014.21)
