Choo choo train

The little train that could, would and will delight you if you are visiting Brockville. It was a beautiful day, there were people out enjoying the day.. all along the water’s edge.. families and tourists mingled in the sunshine. It was nice to see people out taking time to explore. Lots of dogs being walked, even a musician playing the sax outside the main attraction which was the old railway tunnel, now a tourist attraction.

There was a lot to do and see in Brockville whether it is an outdoor adventure .. scuba diving, kayaking, or a sight seeing tour of the 1000 Islands on the St. Lawrence in a traditional sightseeing cruise or a high speed soft adventure aboard a wildcat. There is something for everyone. We didn’t visit the Aquatarium, but I think Bonnie put it on her list of possible attractions for another visit.

One attraction that I would have loved to try was the Forest Adventure.. TreeTop Trekking -Thousand Islands-.. if you want to know more visit TREETOPTREKKING.COM. You all know I won’t be trying that soon, but a gal can dream =^_^=

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.

Please enjoy whatever it is you have to do, sometimes it is a challenge, see it as an opportunity.. do your best, that is all that you can do … then move on.

Note to myself.. remember .. it feels good to snuggle into bed at the end of a busy day. Satisfied with the work I got done and the interactions I had with people I met and visited with during the day. Remember to smile. a stranger can become a friend … and I know from experience, the friends we meet along the way are a joy remembered.. always.

The turning point is now. Life is a sequence of moments called now. You have the key to turn yourself around.

Seasons come and go. We accept that, especially when you live in a country like Canada with four seasons, we get to see the end of winter, when the fields are dormant and still waiting for the sun to warm the earth so that new growth will begin … then spring when everything has changed into a world of greens and colour as the early bloomers peak out into the sunshine. Summer is again a different look, you wouldn’t even see the much of the ground because there is growth everywhere. Fall begins when the vibrant reds, orange, and yellows start to paint the landscape with the the cornucopia of autumn colours that blend in against the various greens that are sported by the evergreens.

There is also a different reality,…… the seasons that life takes us through….. from youth, to middle age to maturity…. the seasons vary from individuals, in my case, I seem to have gone from one to the other without much thought. Everyday is LIFE. That said, suddenly one day I realized that my head space was still in one season, but my physical abilities had undergone a serious “time change” What happened?

The wonders of LIFE.

Have a good day everyone,

door to remember

Good morning. Been awhile since I have been driving through an industrial park .. and been surprised by a doorway that shouted.. you have to stop and look at me! Tucked away on a back street of an area that is all large industrial buildings, tow trucks, repair shops.. and the like, there was this wonderful inviting doorway. Are these doors not beautiful, heavy carved wood. Simply a WOW factor.

Yes today is Thursday, and it is when I participate in Dan’s .. Thursday Doors.. here is the link to his site and more doors. enjoy! https://nofacilities.com/2023/08/17/wvu-doors/

already 15th

Rugged rocky countryside. The terrain is so different when we drive along the highway on the Quebec side of the river. It is a short distance to travel to feel the call of the wild and the outcrop of rocks that once beckoned me to climb. For a time I wanted to climb a frozen waterfall. Did I ever get to do it, no, but I sure thought of it a lot,

Thinking about doing something and doing it, are not the same thing, With the interviews that keep appearing on my screen that Robbie gave (Robbie Robertson) over the last years of his life, there is always the mention of Levon (Levon Helm) I don’t remember Levon all that well, it was Robbie who spent time talking to me, and telling me stories and about his desire to bring his music and stories to places he had yet to see or experience. Good on him he did it, and he did it with determination and a desire to do what he needed to do to accomplish his dreams.

We lost touch, so I don’t know how hard or difficult his dream was to achieve, but he did what he wanted to do, loved doing, and from all the press, he was successful. He wore his scars and told his stories always with pride of his heritage…

Time has a way of blurring the lines.. softening the memories of the struggles and hard moments in our history. That is why I focus on living every day as best as I can. I want no regrets.. I still can’t climb that frozen waterfall, but I can enjoy the memory, when it pops up in my now very full “book of memories”

I know the internet wants to be our everything. It isn’t. When the power goes out, you have only your thoughts/memories … cherish them.

Express your feelings straight away. It will be good if you could express your feelings as they are to people around you when you are happy or when you are troubled. Also, it will be a good chance for you to get to know others,

and then

Bom dia.. Good morning.. and then… another day began.. that means another night of sleep had come and gone.

Do you ever wonder where you go when you sleep? Has it ever occurred to you that your body when it’s tired simply wants to shut down… When it feels rested it will (on it’s own) wake up.. We take our bodies for granted, our heart pumping, our digestive system chugging away processing the “stuff” we ingest.. Our brains try to put order into all the information we take in during our waking hours. All this happens and we take it for granted (most of the time).

It is when something happens that we sit up and take notice. Should we be doing something different, should we me more attentive to the inner workings of our bodies? Not just deal with things when there is a hiccup in our system, or we have an accident.

I found myself trying to go to sleep. Earlier I had been yawning and very tired, but I had other things on my mind and I didn’t listen to the messages the body was sending me. Then of course, I had to wait for the body to want to sleep again. Sigh. I tried listening to music, that wasn’t working, my mind didn’t want to hear the same old, same old…. and when I looked for something different.. I heard a little voice say…. be quiet.. just let me be.’

I remembered yesterday’s prompt, and my response about Silence, I was guilty of having a noisy mind myself… keeping “busy”. I turned everything off,… wow.. silence… and then,….

Smiles.. sleep came.. and now its morning again! Good Morning!

Today’s calendar..

Respect the existence of each other. The world consists of people with different circumstances and different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other,

Silence

Daily writing prompt

If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell?

View all responses

I would sell silence. I would have a boutique of Silence. Since when something is offered free, people seem to feel it has no value… that is the world today. But Silence is the key to discovery…. we need more silence in this world. Oyashikiri

Appreciation

I ask only to be accepted as I am

Others are others, I am I. If you force your values about anything on others it can be self righteous. Don’t be overeager and have and have a sense of “Others are others, “I am I’
