May the lucky cat be with you today.. Let the sunshine bring you happiness, the clear skies beckon you … Today is the start of a new week! Enjoy.
At night let the stars burn bright for you. Watch them twinkle and shine. Tonight when they light up the sky- know at midnight .. tomorrow will arrive right on time.
Put your heart into everything you do!
With a humble mind, take a second look to check for mistakes or oversights. Even when you put in your best effort, you may have overlooked something.

Set your goals a little higher each time
If you keep avoiding difficult tasks, the joys you experience in your life will be shallow. Always challenge yourself by setting your goals a little higher each time.

Passing through the mist. The surrounding landscapes take on a quiet mysterious mantle that softly engulfs all your senses. You are enraptured, totally captured in the moment.
Always think that everything will work out
When you allow yourself to be pessimistic, your thoughts and actions become sluggish. Approach everything optimistically without hesitating..

Actions speak louder than words
Thank you everyone for your wellness wishes. It was a few rough days… but hey! it was then, today is today… we move on Cancelling all my appointments for the week… that in itself was an eye opener. I am supposed to be retired, why am I so busy… at one time I could turn to my p.a. and ask “why do I have meetings every day”.. why do I have to attend… bla bla bla… NOW I see… I am to blame… I do it to myself, AAAGGGHHH
They don’t look like rabbits do they… I couldn’t get my camera out fast enough, this big gray/brown streak of fluff went bouncing past me too quickly … all I could see was this fur ball jumping across my sight path.. into the woods off to the right of where I was standing. What struck me was its lovely colours blended into its off white coat and big feet. I did do google search to see if I saw anything similar .. but
The other sound overhead was the sound of the geese flying back, not happy with the weather they’ve run into… but they do carry on. It was raining when I was out a grizzle that was not sure if it wanted to crystalize or vaporize. Today being the first of April I’ll hope for a nice spring day, This is the colour I see in the spring/summer.. (internet)
Today, church service is at 10 a.m. Day of Peace ceremony,
World peace starts from peace at home.
Your life is a part of the bigger world beyond you. Start with your surroundings and spread peace to the world around you.

Till soon.
Good Morning everyone. The other day, (yesterday) I gave in to the loud messages I was getting from my body. I felt like the relic you see above. I needed to board up my windows, (close the blinds/curtains) lock the doors and go to bed… my pumps, were not working. I had to face the facts… I was in no shape to navigate the world. In fact, over the last few days I sensed I wasn’t functioning on all cylinders, but you know how it is…Sometimes, even when the body sends hints, we don’t hear them, or if we do.. we ignore them .. because we are “busy”. MY inner voice, had enough of my nonsense… it contacted nerve central and opened the drawer with the neuropathy file in it.. Pain, searing instant jabbing pain got my immediate attention. Took less than 48 hours to have me take to my bed.. and stay there.
Suffice to say, I feel more “human” today, but I will pace myself. (should I bold that statement..?) We did get the snow, rain, ice etc. fortunately it didn’t hit us as hard as predicted. (in my area)… This is the start of a new week. Let’s move forward with a positive attitude. (state of mind)
/Be True to yourself/
No matter how you try to make yourself appear differently you can’t alter your self worth. Just be yourself, and freely express yourself without hesitation.

I was well taken care of by Quincy and Quinn.. both were great ..Quincy slept with me, while Quinn took a nap and didn’t tear the house apart. (she is still a little terror, drags drops, yowls at invisible attackers… tell me again, how old does she have to get before she settles down?)
Yup. took one look out the window saw the snow covered branches, the whole backyard is a white blur. Seems we are in the middle of a weather hiccup. Overnight it was a total down pouring of what was left of the snow clouds… It seems we are to have a cloudy overcast day, while the weather artist mixes up a batch of ice pellets, rain, and then as the temperatures drop again, some kind of snow/ice offering, so Mother Nature can empty a couple more of her miscellaneous storm buckets over the area.
Not likely that I will see the short clad joggers out today, or the sweatpants and hoodie)s) out running errands. Was thinking I’d do something really different today, .. stay home and not visit the woods.. BUT
Let’s see… AHHH. PL 2012.20
To do… or Not to do… There is only one way
Although we may have many choices in front of us, in the end we must all make a single decision. Once we have made up our minds, move forward without hesitation.
Skies are blue, clouds are big and puffy. spring is in the air.. the season is changing… pollen is mixed with mould, it looks clean and fresh… BUT be aware, with the thawing of all that snow we had over the winter, the birds may be happily nesting … singing up a storm… but for the human with allergies… stock up on tissues. It will be a challenging few weeks till the ground warms up …
Your surroundings reflect your state of mind. Everything that appears before you is a reflection of your state of mind. If you work to improve your mind and actions, then what appears in the mirror will also be well balanced.

of a gentler time. Yes there were none (or few) of the electronics we have today. Life often involved a lot of time outdoors, hard work, and a dedication to planting, and eating food that was locally grown. I have been eating local meat organically grown, grass fed etc. what a difference in taste and texture !!!
Put your effort into the “now” You can only do your absolute best right this moment; not in the past, not in the future, but now.
