Sun and Moon
August 15, 2015
As clear as day
I saw the sun and moon
when you looked into my eyes
I know no other way
to express that moment in time
when in a single moment,
I knew the meaning of sublime
how often have I meditated and prayed
to know such intense and immense joy
suddenly I am so alive
this is not something I can contrive
no, I know… I really really know
together, we are divine.
God is love, we are ONE

Sometimes someone elses creativity has already expressed something I was going to say, the creators of this video, while giving us a chuckle.. also made a statement..
We are all unique and have our own way of expressing and living our lives. This next clip was also a cutie I found on my FB page this morning. My friends you are so wonderful with your ingenuity and posts. (the squirrel found a nut and wanted to hide it )

… look beyond the fear of the unknown…
the Universe is vast
NGC 6302 is a bipolar planetary nebula in the constellation Scorpius
mean anything to you, no not really
but it does exist, and it is part of our galaxy
look into my eyes, really look
what do you see, can you see beyond the eyes looking back at you
can you feel the invisible web that is weaving
and binding us closer and closer
do you see beyond the fear of the unknown
…we can speculate all we want…
the Universe is vast
and nothing in our past
will give explanation
to what is happening now
you and I, are endowed, we are
part of the spectrum of life
energies bound together by
similar wavelengths
our frequencies in tune
…we hum in harmony…
is there a real need
to know why?
Q
God is everything, to see TAO in everything,
makes life the greatest adventure there is.

Ancestors Day is celebrated in the church of PL (Perfect Liberty on the 11th of every month).. During and through out this ceremony we express our gratitude for the love and virtues of our ancestors,
An ancestor is someone who you are thankful was in your life, and helped form the person you are today. They had impact and brought positive, loving “gifts” into your life. Many people can bring awareness into our lives, usually we take for granted those who love us, we are so embraced by their love that we don’t realize till they are gone that there is a void.
Love comes in many guises, I speak not of the physical intercourse/ fornication of man, but of a mating that begins in the heart, that is given life by mutual respect and enduring love. Genuine caring. To find and share in such a partnership there has to be dialogue/communication that is heartfelt and stems from mutual desires and a respect for self. Love begins within. . .Love is trust/ faith
Give and forget
Receive and remember…

yesterday?
August 6, 2015
We actually saw people enjoying the water on a lake that we have passed many many times. That was different, and so nice to see. So often ball parks, manicured lawns, playgrounds are void of human laughter and activity.
We were headed to visit a friend we hadn’t seen in a number of years, She lives on a lake that is basically on private land, to get there one must travel a private road for miles. The kind of road where you see signs, telling you that it is private, and you travel it at your own risk. In other words it is maintained only by the people who own the land surrounding this lake.
It is isolated in a way, from inside her log and wood constructed home, when one looks out, one sees only the natural vegetation of the area. The trees on one side of the house are just an arms length away from the outside screened in porch .. where safely inside if you are very quiet, you can hear and see some of the daily activities of the creatures who call the wild area, their home. If you berry pick you do so knowing that a bear can be not that far away picking just like you.
The sun had been out, but on our arrival, thunder rolled across the sky, it seemed we were under a bowling alley, it was that close. From the shelter of the roof that covers the wide porch where we had parked, one can sit and just enjoy the storm as it passes by. Her son built her home, it is not a “cottage’ in the woods, it is a lovely big home, that can fit her extended family when they cone to visit It has a quiet charm, There is a television and with her two grandchildren spending summer with her, I was surprised ro learn there is now a computer in the house. There never had been before. I smiled when she thought for a moment, and said, “but I don’t think its working, besides the children are so busy being outdoors, i don’t see them on it” We are speaking of teenagers!
I have not used pictures from our trip, but very close examples of the ambiance we got to enjoy .. and appreciate for the time we were there. Unfortunately, we city folks were on a schedule of sorts, and had to move along. What I wanted to share was that.. so often I think that I am in a quiet place. AND…. in my reality I am, BUT yes (winks) there is always a but, what I found yesterday was that to really and truly enjoy the laid back environment I was in, I would need time to unwind.
When visiting I usually sit with my back to the kitchen, facing out at the lake, On nights where we have lingered after a meal, I have always been lulled by the quiet and total darkness that envelopes the home.
When staying with my friend, its an early night and an early day to a start to a day of fresh air and leisurely walks to scout out the new growth in the woods, or to admire her gardens that she loves to sprinkle in the cultivated areas on her property.
The last couple of years, she tells us that it is difficult to go into the wooded areas without being protected from head to toe because of ticks.
We were sorry to take our leave, but we did have a long journey back to the city. On the way we were going to stop in Kingston, interesting for me, that I was looking forward to some signs of a city, I wanted an iced coffee! Shame on me I know, but there you have it… as much as I enjoyed the hours of bliss in small towns, and the wonderful vistas of farm lands cottages, and lakes………………………..I wanted a Tim Horton*!

PL# 18 – Each Moment is a Turning Point..
We walk past a door (opportunity)…. or we seize the moment.
PL # 15. All is a mirror
When we are calm we reflect that quiet serenity
I love this picture, like, WoW, these mountain goats are climbing a near vertical wall. I found it on a site, that just now when I went back to reference it again, the page was gone, or not available to me. We speak of reflection, perception, to the photographer who took this picture, I say kuddos for your patience and ability to do this capture. My musing is, in Nature, the animal does what is instinctively right, …. need to get to point X, hmmm what is the best way, oh yes, this way, and simply goes about doing it.
The mind, I can speak for mine will often prevent me from doing something, because I think about it too much.
PL Precept #1 – Life is Art
Every day, every waking moment, is a new beginning.
Spanish moss draped like a golden chandelier, some one with a creative mind and vision, got the idea, “saw it” “acted on it” et voila!
PL Precept #19 – Begin once you Perceive
If you are wondering how many Precepts we have in PL Perfect Liberty, we have 21 Precepts.
PL Precept #21 – Live in Perfect Liberty
By following the Precepts, we grow each day in all ways, to live our lives in a peaceful and meaningful way, helping others to know love, happiness, and caring friendships, creating an ambiance that will bring us to world peace.

Love is not an emotion that can come and go
if you truly love, it is forever
love is God
you / me
ONE
somethings simply are
August 4, 2015
one day, it simply happened
I looked up and there you were
obviously you had been there before
but .. somehow.. I missed seeing you there
nature has a way of reclaiming
what man has tried to take away
there is no tomorrow or yesterday
only today
one day you wake and find the floral essence of the bloom
enjoy it while it comes alive
for all too soon, the flower fades
to shrivel and begin its journey
to another space and time
no, not into the gloom
it has come, lived, and gone
no more no less
I am a tree
grow with me

“all things come to fruition when the heart (content) and the object (form) are in accord with one another”
I don’t think that I can count the number of times, that I discover that my reality and the actual happening, and interaction with others, is totally bonkers. I talked the other day of time, and perception, every day I learn how askew my reality is, and that because of that, I create my own frustrations and sometimes anxiety. As a young child i can recall how other children would taunt me and call me names..just because… I was different, I was Asian in a very different culture. Hurt and confused I would run to my father, who would quietly take me aside and explain to me that in life, there would always be others who don’t understand or accept that I was different. What counted was, my thoughts and understanding about myself. I was young, not even close to a double-digit age. But he would walk me through understanding that it was because they really didn’t know me yet.. and that I should go out and get to know them.. He didn’t let me stay in or shield me, he sent me back out to play. He taught me that it was their problem if they lacked insight, not mine.
He taught me that life was to be lived, and that meant accepting that it would not always be sunny days, or happy, but what was important was that I like myself, and enjoy the world around me, because it was a gift. God/TAO was always, always with me, part of me, I was never alone. In going back out to the play, I did get to know the other boys and girls, and I learned another language. To this day, my friends from that time of my life, tell me what it meant for them to discover friendship with me, someone with a different cultural background,, and how it changed for them, their perception of others they later met in life that were “different”
The Universe is vast, and often we find ourselves alone with a view that is beyond words, or in a situation that is just so awesome to our inner psyche that.. there simply is nothing to do but absorb and take in the moment. Even if someone shared that ledge with you… no two people will experience the same emotion in that moment, or “see” the same “picture”.
The Universe, does provide, only it may not be when you want, rather, it will be … when the time is such that you are ready for that discovery/recognition.
