PL Precept # 1 Life is Art
Kit took the hats outside, they would be perfect for the visit back to the early 1900’s what was it she heard, 1934, or was it 1944. Whatever, she knew that when they called her in, she would be ready for the part. She had carefully taken them out of the storage box, and cleaned them. They had been outside drying in the hot heat of the afternoon sun.
Inside, Nellie, Ivy and Elizabeth were busy making their plans too. They had been called in earlier and told that they were going to be assigned to the project that was heading back to the mid 1940’s .. They would have to study and read up on all the information that they had so that they could interact in the best way possible. They would also have to talk to Kit, since that was her special time period.
The did wonder how come Kit had not been included in the assignment, but it was not their decision to make, nor their place to ask questions. They had over a month to prepare.
When they saw Kit come in they couldn’t wait to tell her their news. Each was so excited, that at first it didn’t register that Kit had gone very quiet. It was only when Ivy asked Kit, if she would like to sit in and help them in their planning. that they noticed, that she hesitated.
Kit excused herself, saying she had something to do, then fled to her room. Alone in her room, she felt sad and disappointed. She was not going with them. She brooded for a while, then thought, she would talk it over with her friend ChenMay.
In talking it over with her friend, she realized that it wasn’t her friends fault that they were given this assignment. She knew they would be good at it, and that it would give them the opportunity to visit and experience something she already knew. AND they had asked her for help to plan. She would be involved, just not going.
That meant, as ChenMay had helped her to realize, she would going on a different adventure, something brand new to her. Now that was exciting.
She felt so blessed that she had such good friends and team mates. The gloom had lifted, and her appreciation for her friends grew. It WAS a beautiful day, her smile lit up the room. ChenMay was happy too, she had shared quality time with her friend, so she was smiling too…
Happy Ending
Expectations, when we allow ourselves to build expectations, we leave ourselves open for disappointment. Wait till you have access to all the facts, and believe that you will always be where you should be when the time comes.

Peaceful sleep, a deep slumber, or simply resting, our bodies need the down time. Time where physically we can just let our bodies relax in whatever way is comfortable. This way, not having to thinking of anything in particular, we can allow the mind to drift.
There are some who find that it is easier to have low lighting, and quiet, and others will tell us they like quiet music. Their mind latches on to the melody and they float off into space.
Back when… we used to call wandering in space astral projection. Are you familiar with that expression. Dreams are a form of memory recall, but in a code known only to the Universe. Eartha* and I touched briefly on this during our last outing, From very different backgrounds, and cultures, we still … as human… relate pretty much to LIFE in the same way.
As writers, a dream world is ever-present in our daily lives, as an artist, dreams explode into colour, pattern and textures if we paint, if we are musical, our voice, or skills with musical instruments, take us beyond our own realities.
Imagine a world with out dreams. Let go of day-to-day drudgery, allow your spirit to soar and take flight. Explore in the night, your inner Universe will bring a kaleidoscope of worlds, past ,present and future to you, open your mind to new possibilities =^_^=

If there is rust, I’ll find it. I love the way it grows and expands, changing as it ages. Ok it is not for everyone. To my artist’s eye it has a melody all its very own. Left to slowly decompose, erode and oxidize it has patina and look that is unique, like a snowflake. At least it does to my eye.
I have a whole section of film that is all rust. For now it is part of my private collection. When I want inspiration, I can play it back and let each image dance across the screen in slow motion. Oooohhh so powerful.
Smiles out at her friends.. that is why that expression that has been around for ages, is so fitting here… “to each his/her own”
Happy start of the week my lovelies. May it be successful, productive and happy.
