Value those who are nearest to you
It is especially easy to overlook how wonderful your spouse or other family members really are. Always remember to respect and value one another.

Live today filled with enthusiasm.
Life is an accumulation of the efforts you make, day by day. Live keeping in mind that “today” only comes once and live your precious life to the fullest.

A beautiful sun filled day, the skies a brilliant blue – it was an amazing moment in time.
It was a clear day, and I was lucky enough to have the miles of forest to myself. Well almost, I had all the woodland critters with me. ^_^
Handle things that come your way one by one
Tackle your issues in the order they appear in front of you. You will be able to get things done more efficiently this way.

Did you see that snow out there! It was all clear now for days, and …. now there is a ton of snow out there…?? .The forecast for the start of the week is back up in the double digits temperature with lots of rain!
Back to chilling ….we’ll survey from the windows thank you! How about you? You going to have a whirlwind week-end?
Remember how you felt in the beginning
Doing the same old thing monotonously without thought will stifle progress. When you get s tuck, go back to the beginning and start fresh.

Everyone has their own way of seeing and thinking
There are different points of view and ways of thinking, which makes it interesting and creates new ideas. Try to enjoy others’ expressions.

Active listening
Giving your whole attention to a conversation without anticipating your response. With practice you can learn to push distracting thoughts aside, and really, focus on what’s being said in the moment.
Today (actually yesterday now) I drove to Montreal’s West Island and back, did it all in half a day, I find that driving along a highway with nothing but a straight road ahead, and one disappearing in my rear view mirror, relaxing. It was a spur of the moment decision, I had been going to go, changed my mind, realizing I had a full afternoon and evening. But on waking I saw on my calendar that the city was working in the area, and I would have no water … it was being turned off .. 8 – 4 … ugh.
The day being bright, skies clear, I decided to hit the road, the gem/mineral show is on all week-end, but I knew the week-end would be a zoo. I went for many miles with no radio on… I wanted the quiet. The car is my personal space… a place where I can lock myself in and just BE. No distractions unless I want them.
There is something soothing about driving in silence. There were few cars /trucks on the road.. I didn’t question it, I enjoyed it. I took the 417 (super highway) going down, and on the way back, veered off and came by way of Hawksbury. A secondary road that goes through small communities.
My objective was to attend a warehouse sale of earth treasures, crystals, minerals, fossils and one of a kind treasures .. This vendor specializes in high quality specimens, he travels all over the world, his inventory is wonderful to experience.
Begin each day with a renewed sense of appreciation. Let’s make each day meaningful by starting out with a feeling of gratitude.
Specific mindfulness exercise can help you ease your mind and improve your every day.
Wandering down aisles of crystals, minerals from all over the world, unique fossils .. feeling the vibe from “mother earth” was “grounding”
The “Universe” will support you if you put your full makoto (sincerity) into what you do.
Have a good day everyone!

With milder days, and the sun so much warmer on the skin… thoughts of sailing off into the sunset… start creeping in..
Soon there will be different birds in the sky, we’ll hear the honking sounds of the geese as they make their way back…
soft green shoots will start to emerge, and before we know it, the world around us will be awash in pastel colours of spring.
A bouquet for your my dears, let’s share a moment of quiet reflection, your visiting here today, made me smile.. Thank you for dropping in today, hope to see you again soon. Have a good day!
Be a messenger of Peace
Express yourself for the happiness of all people.

With the lunar new year not far off… I let my thoughts drift to another place and time… in my youth, I dreamed of being able to wander the grounds of a monastery high in the mountains. I knew I would feel at home .. looking out into the distance… hearing the soft chanting of the monks… the sweet smell of incense and sandalwood wafting through the air. I never made it to China but my Mom and sister did… . no their interests were not mine… but they did get to explore and bring home memories of a land that was very different from the world we knew. My time abroad was spent in Japan.. smiles with a soft stirring in my heart as I recall the cherry blossoms… and the rice fields as i wandered and took in life in Japan. I loved it there, but I missed hearing English and French, oui, je suis Canadianne …
We can’t always do all the things we want to… but we can explore and take in the world around us, every day there is something new to discover. We need only look around, and reach out, be open to try something new, something different, try something you have never done before. It’s a thought, think about it.
Once upon a time .. we used an expression, “arm chair traveler” have you heard it? do you know it’s meaning? Now I am an “internet buff” I use different platforms to explore my interests. In person, travel to far distant places is no longer a possibility for me, I’m just not interested in airports, long lines, customs, politics.. I simply want to enjoy life and the pleasures available to me. I am thankful for the experiences I have had, and the many wonderful people I’ve met along the way…. now I make no apologies for making time for ME… my interests, my joy at being able to explore places via the creative efforts of others.. I am learning and appreciating the talent and skills of creative minds that impact my world in a positive way.
I discovered I like being happy. I like sharing that happiness… and if it isn’t what others want who are in my space.. I move on. simply said. life is to be enjoyed.
Always express yourself for the happiness of others as well as yourself.
The happiness of those around you can lead to your own happiness. Cultivate a heart to always wish for the happiness of others.
