Thursday doors

The Hull Armories, I had to pass by this building and grounds every day as I made my way to school and in later times to work. Early evenings and week-ends we would see cadets parading or being put to some kind of “task” or “routine”. Now except for the odd event, we see little activity there on a regular basis.

Time has a way of changing circumstances and the world around us.

So we learn from our past. Does history not provide us with valuable lessons, so many of us have lived through times where in some parts of the world, human beings are not always kind to one another, yet under different skies and circumstances, these same people would walk side by side in peace .. even indifference. A door opens both ways, we have a choice, to enter, leave, or walk by. A door is a reminder that we have a choice. Choose wisely.

‘m late..

What happens when you are late for an important date.. and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. With the time change the body just doesn’t want to wake up any other time but when it is used to doing so. it woke on time, it is the clocks that are wrong. bah humbug!

March 1

If the giraffe here was in my back yard, maybe his head would be out of the snow, maybe. That is how much snow has fallen these past weeks. Good morning, Bom dia a todos. Here we are heading into another month. A few days ago, so much of the snow accumulation we’ve had Jan. and early Feb. was really disappearing, Now. . . we have had so much snow fall the last 48 plus hours.. the snow piles in areas where it had not been taken away ( our street had been cleared of the snow piles) the snow is deep enough that cars were getting stuck on our street, and neighbours and passer bys had to help get them going again,

Snow on my back steps was over 10″ deep almost the depth of my broom ( I was trying to sweep the steps, determining if it was a good idea to venture out or not.) I don’t know when it stopped snowing, I do know that I went out twice (in the back) to shovel a path for the dogs.. Had to do it a couple of times, that is how hard and fast the snow was falling. There is one section of the yard where the snow is taller than I am.. I am 5’3″ and shrinking.

Today’s calendar message is about World Peace.

Let’s pray for World Peace. The path to World Peace will open up with each person’s prayer for peace.

more snow

Develop new ideas through your imagination – softly and flexibly. If you could find a way to add a twist you will have more joy.

snow you say

This was yesterday ..and we are due to get a whole lot more starting tonight into the day tomorrow. It might have been relatively mild winter, but it has not been lacking in snow. We have had a lot of snow… so much so that the contractors who clean up the roads, laneways etc,. will exceed their contracted amounts of snow and patrons will be facing additional charges this year for snow maintenance.

To all our Brazilian readers, this is the area to the side and back of the church building. You can see how much snow has accumulated. In Japan there are areas that get snow, but in the parts where no snow falls, you can see what the church grounds are like here in Canada at this time of year.

Put Makoto even into small things. don’t let things go with “oh well” You will have a different outcome if you put Makoto (sincerity) into everything you do. Perfect Liberty 2023,27

A huge big snow smile just for you!

Presence of mind

Always have presence of mind. if you overexert yourself, you will get easily swayed by emotion. Always put the best Makoto with presence of mind.

Sometimes we try to retain or do too much. We can be over achievers. Seems a good idea at the time, but suddenly it dawns on us… “we are not where we want to be” …………… that is a message from your inner voice… We are .. and can be … stubborn without realizing we are …

Free yourself from being overly attached. Overthinking hinders ideas and actions.

Dragons

Strive to live with a positive outlook everyday. Put your whole heart into whatever you do. With motivation you will feel joy and excitement.

When I was younger, my Dad would take me to Chinatown with him … there I would see the dragon’s performing outside a new restaurant or shop that was opening. It was always so festive and at the same time solemn – the gods were being asked to surround the new venture with good fortune and prosperity.

Dragons can fly, breathe fire and are extremely powerful, strong and intelligent.they have an extended range of supernatural powers. They breathe clouds, move seasons and control the waters of rivers, lakes and seas. Linked with Taoism, yang masculine principle of heat,light,sun and action as opposed to the feminine principle of coolness, darkness, repose, softness and moonlight.

PL Precept # 1 Life is Art…

PL Precept # 15 All is a Mirror.

How many dragons do you have in your life?

In Mythology, a female dragon is called a drakaina…. but, I just look in the mirror. wink.

mourning

Life is fragile at the best of times.. Ever since I found the Merlin and got to admire the beauty of her markings and her head I have been haunted by the experience. A small member of the falcon family she often hunts on the fly, catching her prey in mid flight. Today while at the feeders I could hear the crows going ballistic in another part of the woods, I attempted to follow the “noise”.. looking up as I took to the trail. I have never been able to use binoculars without getting a headache.. thinking I might try again with these newer and lighter models. I gave up as the noise grew louder but seemed to be moving further away from the area I was in. I didn’t have my camera with the powerful lens, I wouldn’t be able to see the bird if it was high up in the trees.

What I learned from this incident was that I “knew” and thought it was a Merlin when I saw her lying peacefully on the snow.. but when someone else told me no it was something else, I doubted my knowledge. I have since found out, I was right, this /that angel was a Merlin. I am unhappy with myself that I didn’t 1. take a picture, and 2. take better care in burying her. In PL one of our lessons in life is to learn to trust our inner voices. Here is an example of my not following my instincts, and then living with the consequences. Every life is important.. /has value.

Why am I finding it so hard to shake this little bird’s demise. I don’t know..I can only guess, it was a loss of life and I was privy to the passing on, of this life, Thankfully I didn’t settle for an answer that I got that I felt in my heart was wrong. Every life should be recognized and acknowledged. I have since said a prayer for her little spirit..

Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest to start your day with excitement.

I have to practice – letting go.. The little bird is at peace, now I have to find mine. Wishing and hoping won’t bring her back.

hawks

sharp shinned hawk Merlin hawk

In the last little while there have been visitors to the feeders that are not welcomed by the regular diners. This morning it was the sharp shinned hawk (left)… the other day it was a Merlin. With the up and down winter we’ve had, the birds have been traveling more. Ravens are already calling, looking for someone to hook up with. I noted that the crows have started to go further afield as well.

The more I see of the Merlin, the more convinced I am that the dead bird that I found the other week, was a Merlin. That beautiful head has stayed in my memory … it was a beautiful bird, even in death it was a true “beauty”. Next time I hope to remember to take a picture.

Be grateful for everything. If you see everything as material to express gratitude, you can encounter a number of opportunities you are grateful for.

Wednesday 15th.

The key to solving problems is within you. The problem that appears before you can surely be solved. Give it your best effort and the answers will come to you as long as you remain strong in your conviction that all will turn out well.
