Let’s find the good in others and Praise them. All people have good and bad qualities. Focus on the good in others and applaud them every chance you get.

‘THANK YOU” again and again. It feels great if someone says Thank YOU, to you, even many times. By repeating this, become a person who comes up with the words “Thank You” naturally.

8.7 Monday

There are days when we simply don’t want to face the world, sunshine or not. We want or need time to rest, to invest in our selves. It is all part of the “maturing” process. Take life as it comes, in little steps.

“Give importance to listening, looking, thinking, doing and speaking. Look and listen carefully before making a judgement. Assumptions and hasty conclusions can lead to misunderstandings.

LIFE IS ART ..LIVE THE PL WAY

Strive to be happy … live with a willingness to share and bring happiness to others.

August 5

Always be humble. If you work on things with attitude of asking a favour people around you will advise you what they have noticed. There’s something in fact you are not aware of that you do.

changes

This is how I feel right now. Old but still standing… debris all around and feeling a tad “useless’ have spent the last many hours trying to figure out how to use this new laptop, find where things are, the biggest headache was changing the keyboard to good old English. Something I took for granted with my other PCs, tablets etc. This brand new laptop comes with a bilingual keyboard, it just never occurred to me that it would want to type in French. Sigh. a learning curve it will be.

Don’t give up! Keep at it until you accomplish what you’ve started. The key to achieving something is to stick to it. If you are able to finish, you will be sure to accomplish it no matter how difficult the task is.

surprise

Yesterday I had the pleasure of a chance encounter with a local photographer (Jim Robertson) and his wife at the conservation area that I visit each day for my morning “meditations” . Last night I was surprised to see an e-mail from him… Please allow me to share with you the link to his webpage.

https://express.adobe.com/page/WMpCvu93LoVCc/ he captured some of the turkeys that I talk to you about, it was a delight to see them reproduced right here in my office.. their spontaneity and anticipation of a treat. Always brings a “happy moment” ..

Calendar-

“Is there anything I can help you with?” Enjoy a feeling of happiness to contribute to those around you. It will give you confidence that you have something you can do for others.

Thank you so much Jim, I loved the surprise, and thank you for granting me permission to share it with my friends/readers.

Have a great day everyone!………. PL Precept # 1 Life is Art.

the mind

Getting a new computer set up, means you have to do a lot of rearranging, you are forced to look at all that “stuff” in your old hard drive. What is really essential, how much of the “clutter” do you really need, or will ever use ??????? If we could see inside our minds, we would find that the mind is just as cluttered with “things, information, memories” that are no longer relevant in our lives. Since my husbands passing some five years ago, it has been a steady emptying of the house of “objects” parafernalia no longer needed or wanted.

What is clear to me is that I no longer want to deal with all the mumble jumble that is required to get the new equipment up and running so that it is effective and I can be productive. It isn’t a simple task, of bring a new computer home and use it.. no …you need a lot of “stuff” from the equipment you are using. People working in the field, can so easily juggle all the various tasks, but to me it is mind boggling.

The computer is a wonderful invention, I love it, I love working with it, on it… but the mechanic of it.. that is another story. In nature, you can clearly see from the picture above, what is new , thriving and what has gone past its due date. I need to prune my mind .. simplify … … where is my to do list for the next many months !!!!

How about you… all good at your end?

Today’s calendar..

Be big hearted. In fact, what you are concerned about might be something you don’t need to be concerned about. Interact with people without worrying too much.

Happiness is….. Sharing with YOU.

beauty is skin deep

I have always admired the beauty of this evergreen. It stood tall and proud in the Perfect Liberty church parking lot. during a recent storm (one of many we’ve had this summer) it was toppled. Rev. Eugene took the pictures and he graciously has allowed me to share them with you.. I was surprised at how shallow the roots were, given its size I would have thought that the roots would have travelled down further, and spread wider.

Reminds me of how often I have seen people being judged by appearance … and not by their personalities and inner beauty. Every where we look, there are commercials and ads that will help one look more beautiful and radiant if this product or item is bought and used. the endless commercials on fad diets and supplements that are a must if you want to look younger, stay fit, etc. Most of the ads are about maintaining a “look” or appearance, You can be vain, shallow, superficial, self centered etc. go into debt to try to achieve what someone else considers beautiful and essential…. then spend endless hours lonely, distressed over debts, and trying to cope with feelings of inadequacy.

Being home these past weeks dealing with “symptoms” from my fall, I have had time to think, reflect and cogitate on the world around me. How “busy” everyone always seems to be, AND notice things about my own “habits” and “lifestyle”. S C A R Y…. when commenting on others, one should always look hard at the imagine in the mirror.

Be flexible to change. A flexible way of thinking and responding is one of the keys to getting along with others.

Hazy overcast with a delightful freeze. Still a welcome sight. We need to find more time to simply reflect and quietly enjoy our surroundings, wherever that may be.

Every day is a new sky a new beginning. Step outside your comfort zone, explore new possibilities.

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

Thursday 27th

It is raining, a real downpour and you have to get in out of the cold dampness that is sending a chill down your spine. Clouds overhead seem to be getting darker … the wind is picking up… which door would you want to go through for shelter… ? You have to decide quickly there is a dull roar of thunder in the distance, won’t be long before it comes your way… Wow, did you see that flash of lightening…
