Driving along one day, I spied a happy face. It meant a bit of a climb, but I wanted a close up. Happy under the sun, we shared several of moments in contemplation, the stones, the surroundings and I. Happiness is being alive, to take in and bask in the wonder of the world around us. Where ever you may be. Day or night, you are never alone.
Make every moment count!
Perfect Liberty Precept #21 Live in Perfect Liberty
You are all part of my world and I pray each day for your health, happiness and prosperity. Love to you always.
Be creative in your efforts. If something is not going well, take a step back and look at how you are tackling the problem. There is sure to be something you an improve on.
A friend captured this beauty, (on camera) but we do not know what it is. Does anyone out there recognize this little critter? She spied this while out camping, past Deep River, Ontario. (Canada)
Don’t blame others. It is easy to place the blame on others and society for the problems you encounter in the life. But you are the one with the power to change the outcome.

My sister and I went to lunch with a good friend along the St. Lawrence yesterday. The fall colours are beginning to appear. In some places they are brilliant in others they are still shy. How luck we are to live in a country where the four seasons are so distinctive and beautiful in what they offer.
I can travel far and wide, no matter how many doors I meet, I enjoy them all. I enjoy the character of the older doors, I confess to finding them appealing to my imagination.
Put your whole heart into whatever you, no matter when, or where you are. Don’t try to cut corners or be careless about things. Be fully responsible completing whatever you set out to do.
take flight under the dark skies or stay and stand on guard
the winds blew, the sky started to clear
the bears danced in place, and we continued on
in Mother Nature’s sweet embrace
sharing in another wonderful day.
Each day is another new adventure. Step out and greet the day. When the heart is open, you will always be amazed at how awesome life on earth can be. With love and friendship by your side, a cloudy day, becomes amazing.
Thank you all ever so much. I am blown away from all the glad wishes and happy tidings I received yesterday. No escaping my date of origin is there.
It was one surprise after another. My poor face by the end of day! BTW Piglet accompanied me on my special outing, it was a beautiful sunny day, Mother Nature, provided for us all the way. Fresh made pasta in Montreal to steamed hot dogs and poutin in Alfred. I will really have to wear my cowl to maintain a comfort level (evil grin)
Seriously birthdays are wonderful, especially when shared with friends. I do sincerely thank each and every one of you for being so caring and thoughtful. Especially Piglet who indulged in all the comfort foods with me. I am sure she will be doing double time at the gym, and taking an extra zumba class.
As I shared with a young man, true friendships and love are non gender. I got to spend quality time with he and his grandfather on the eve of my birthday.. I am very grateful for all the blessings in life that I have been blessed with time and time again.
You all are MY joy, and I am comforted .. morning noon and night.. always!! Knowing you are in my world.
There are days when you are blessed with the opportunity to simply wander. Today I took to country roads that I have not been on before and came across this little creek. I actually stopped the car and got out. Far from any well travelled roads, it was blissfully serene. The sun was high overhead, I could feel the warm rays on my shoulders, head, back, for a second, I wanted to run back to the car and the air con… but.. the sound of crickets and a passing butterfly changed my mind. I stayed.
Lingering on the old bridge, I was rewarded with a delightful pattern of a soft tobacco orange taupe growth. Delicate and interesting displayed against the soft and darker grays of the railing. Man made time was not important, being present in my surroundings, was all encompassing
This for me …. was a vacation.
PL calendar day 10 When you are not having fun, could it be because you are being Lazy? Sometimes you f eel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything. At times like this, just get up and move your body or work your mind to the fullest extent.
ah ha… tad overgrown, but somewhere down here has to be a door
Thursday will soon be here, come on, show yourself
Finally, there you are. I’ve missed my dates with Norm 2.0 (click link to visit more doors) .. it was bug infested trek but I persisted!! I was the buffet!!
