dull,overcast & sunny

Good Morning everyone.

It is a day of choices. When a friend dropped over with wool for another friend, the leaves were bathed in sunshine, as I stood on the steps i was wrapped in a soft light of sunshine, with a warmth that was pleasing. When I came in for my camera, I thought it would be delightful to share the various shades of crimson and bronze of the leaves. However… when I opened the door not 5 minutes later, the sun had been replaced with cloud and a dismal sky of washed out grays.

Such is life. Thus the expression “seize the day/moment” Yes the sun has come out again, but guess what, it is not longer shinning down in that area… it has moved on. Life is good, it is full of wonder and adventure.

Now.. is always the start of something new!

O agora e sempre um ponto de partida

a worn and weary boat sits by the dock

alone and forgotten

its old, it has seen many seasons come and go

the young ones that it once ferried

have long since moved on in life

the laughter and the fun

the echoes of children playing were on another clock

now as time ticks on

the boat knows it will soon be docked

it will be put away, left to weather

with only memories of yesterday

of young Russ and Margaret

John, Janet and Brian

“yes,” sighs the creaking old boat

Time for one era to end

so a new one can begin… again.

amen

I have a cold…

Good day everyone….

I have a cold… blanket statement… What does that mean exactly. It is a response that I have used for a number of symptoms, and it usually satisfies the person to whom I am talking. I realized the other day that my making that statement doesn’t always stem from my having the same symptoms, if I were to really examine and say out loud why I was making that statement, I think the listener would have lost interest and moved on. Saying “I have a cold” is much like the other conversational throw away “how are you” reply “fine”

They are openers that more often then naught are merely cordial greetings. In conversation with Rev. Eugene the other day, when i verbalized that I had a cold/flu, his response was, “why”. My internal response, “hello, why” of course that was an excellent PL reply.

Exactly … he brought the statement, the thought back to me for closer examination. After all if I have a cold, or say I have a cold, what is it that brought this on, why do I feel like I do… No one can answer these questions but myself.

If my body is rebelling on me, giving me grief, I have to ask myself why. what am I doing, saying or thinking that is creating an imbalance in my thought pattern, or harmony in my body,mind and soul. Speaking about me, I know that I have a tendency to get really busy, stay actively busy looking “out”… when I am not wanting to perhaps address something that is “stewing” “inside me.

Having a cold means that I can retreat with an excuse. I can take to my bed and sleep the whole morning.totally oblivious to anything but the “mode of BEING” I’m in.. Since I can’t sleep all day.. guess what.. I will keep busy till I can hit my bed once more and sleep till next time I wake. I have a cold.

Expressions

This is a vintage print that appeared in a mailing I received, I wish I could credit the artist, but I can’t. Art is very subjective, what appeals to me, may not be your cup of tea. For me the moment I saw this print, I was mesmerized. The colours, the position of the model, the bird cage, the total image evoked a sense of longing in me. Certainly not in a negative way, just a feeling, a passion that set me to wanting to create prose, or write a poem. I’m sure that at one time or another, such moments have happened to you. What do we do with these inspirations, these “ah Ha” light bulb moments.. do we act on them, or does the moment pass and we move on.

PL Precept # 3 – God appears through one’s self……..

In PL (Perfect Liberty) we believe that the Universe is always guiding and directing us, It is we who fail to listen or hear…when something happens out of the blue, or suddenly we find ourselves faced with a challenge we are not prepared for. In Pl we see that as an act or happening created by the Universe to get our attention. We are taught to take stock, pay attention, open our minds to possibilities, to focus and seek resolution.

PL Precept # 7 – Everything exists in Relativity….

When I saw the above print, it started a thought process, that began with the emotions I felt when I saw the print, and then the various stages of evolution the initial thought produced in my mind’s data base. More than 12 hours later I still wanted to share the print with you. Perhaps it will inspire a thought process in you?

For me… it had me looking for a gaudy ring full of bling……. go figure……..hey…………….. what is… is, I share with you all of me, imperfections included.!

The PL 21 Precepts reveal the true path of life for all humankind. Beginning with Precept #1, Life is Art…. as the foundation. There are 20 more precepts that stem from it and are closely interrelated with one another. Each Precept is written in simple and clear language, but the truth revealed in their words applies Universally to ALL….

Thank you to all of you who read and follow me on my journey. You are my inspiration.

Tranquility

Sometimes we need to simply BE

To relax, listen, and drift

Our mind allowed to coast along waves of music that take us to another realm..

Join me today in a silent meditation…

Let the ambient sounds clear and cleanse your tired and weary spirit…

Follow along, enjoy the peace and tranquility..

Now and always..

Namaste, Oyashikiri

music is best listened to at low volume

How beautiful heaven must be

oh to be set free

Night and day, we pray

Peace on earth will be here to stay

the joy of a happiness

lived in a total awareness

of unconditional love

trust, understanding, caring

peace in all our hearts

when love is not just a word

then and only then

will light and dark

be ONE

Good Morning everyone! Bom Dia!

Facing a situation head on……….. making time to study the challenge with Makoto (sincerity)…………. being in the moment …………..a path will open up. wise words. Yesterday I found myself facing a blank wall, actually it wasn’t blank, it was a strobing texture I had applied to a build I was doing. I “knew” that I should know why it was happening, but try as I might, the answer was not forthcoming. In PL (Perfect Liberty) we believe that no matter how hard a situation is, if we approach it seriously, we will eventually find a way to break through.

There are times we find ourselves in one place, when we expect to be in another. The Universe has its own very special way of testing our creativity, our lot in life is to say..”OK, what are we doing today…. What are the tools and the means at hand.” In my case yesterday, I took a break, did something else to clean my mind of the stalemate that I was experiencing.

When I returned to the problem I had been having, yup, it was still there…closing my eyes, I whispered Shikiri, Shikiri ( a PL prayer asking God’s blessing with a sincere promise to accomplish what we have to do…… knock, knock…. a friend came by and said, “oh simple” she explained something to me that as she spoke, the “ping” happened in my gray matter… of course, I had known that, but it took another voice to unlock the solution …. perfect timing, ?? she had been on her way home and just dropped in… In PL we believe that this was the Universe responding to my silent plea.

My walls are now textured, no more strobing and I relearned a lesson….. Plus I got to spend time with a friend. I accomplished that, by not skirting the matter, or putting it aside, but by dealing with it head on. LOL not hiding under the bed….

up up and away

Ever feel that you are living in another world

where reality and dreams intermingle

when light and darkness become blurred

and where multiple objects become one – single

there no longer is any definition

what you know or knew is merely intuition

every nerve ending comes alive

shivers and then reclines

building and ebbing

emotions once so balanced

soar, going up up and finally away

you are spent, your mind blow away

is it night, is it day

you don’t care,

you are no longer aware

of where you are

you are now a shining star

bright and alive

in a dimension of your own

totally content

twinkle twinkle little star

how I wonder

just where you are.

Feelings -Thanksgiving

What comes to mind when you think of Thanksgiving……….

A meal shared with friends and family………..

Is it the joy you take in gathering supplies to make colorful decorations that will please the the eye and delight the senses? Small gifts for friends, or just to brighten your home.

As the color titillates our awakening senses, we are open to new adventures Where ever we are when the leaves start to change, we feel it in the air. Our appreciation of life is aroused and we find ourselves more open to changes, in fact, our creative juices start to bubble with ideas that want expression.

This picture evokes the desire to explore, to walk down this sun filled path, to smell the autumn leaves as they progress through their cycle of change. You know that the photographer who took this picture, felt the sun and heard the birds and wildlife that surround her/him. They managed to capture the moment beautifully. If you listen closely you’ll hear the rustle of the leaves as a gentle breeze makes its way through the spectrum of fall colored foliage.

Life is to be enjoyed, Thanksgiving is a time to express and give thanks for the bounty we receive in life, In Perfect Liberty, (PL) we give thanks each month for the many blessings in our lives. We do so on the 21 st . of each month.

Faith grows not only through intellectual understanding but also through actively participating in life, the PL WAY.

PL Precept 20.

Live Maintaining Equilibrium Between Mind and matter

PL Precept 21

Live in Perfect Liberty

Thank you, Merci, Gracias, Obrigado,Grazie xxxooo

Thank you all for your wonderful messages of love and friendship… I was overwhelmed when I got back at the birthday greetings and kind words. The road weariness evaporated under a blanket of amazing heartfelt gratitude. Many of you I have only met and interacted via social media and the virtual world, I really truly love and appreciate each and every one of you.

It was a wonderful birthday journey, filled with sunshine and balmy weather. We got to explore, visit and rest, my husband once again shone with his thoughtfulness at ensuring that everything went well and that we were safe at all times. To my fellow vintage buffs, this was the find of all finds, 100% silk, pure vintage, with beads that appear to be all hand sewn ..=^_^=
