Sunday

It was Q’s rez day yesterday (birthday)… I got the notice and realized that I had totally forgotten. I made time to go in to SL (Second Life) (virtual platform) to spend some time with her. Wow she first appeared in my life in 2007.. She was an adventure into a virtual world, there were a lot of lessons to learn. I had to learn to walk, sit, build, communicate with others. Basically exist in/on a virtual platform… I did it … over the years I have progressed and managed to move around and adjust to the many changes one faces in a virtual environment. Photography of course is one of my greatest loves and challenges. I have over 6000 photos on flickr documenting the many changes over the years. I am definitely someone who has learned to live conducting and using my creativity as an avatar to navigate part of my life. The big buzz these days is Ai … which has filtered into “today” world in/on all platforms.

Listening to my lessons, studies, I am getting to know just how much Ai is out there. My visits to the woodlands are more frequent with the changing of the weather, There is something very humbling about being a human standing alone in the middle of acres of land … where a young moose can wander past, or the a call of a patrolling wolf warning you of his/her presence…. joins the chatter of the critters coming to greet you … looking for the treats you’ve brought for them to enjoy. I am finding a balance… outdoors with nature, and indoors with a computerized world…. both take the need to be “present” as an important factor in balancing one’s waking hours.

You will notice that while Q was out, she saw a lot of Christmas decorations in shops she visited.. So yes, Xmas has arrived in her “personal” space. I noted looking out my window last night, that there was a fully decorated tree, with lovely lights on the balcony across the courtyard. Might be time I changed my fall bouquet (on my patio) to something more Xmasy…I won’t want to be out there trying to do something when the weather changes and we are in a full blown “winter” season.

Today’s calendar

Avoid being careless or overconfident

Even though you may have put your best effort into doing something you still may have made some mistakes, that is why it is important to always work with a prayerful mind.

Happy Sunday everyone,

Oyashikiri

Q isn’t one who smiles much (like me) but she is happy and content in her world…. (like me) =^_^= contentment is a beautiful state of BEING.

Thursday

We’ve all been there, we diligently work on a project, only to have someone come along, and ask us to revise portions of what has been done…. Star’s expression…. you what? you would like me to redo all of the first page. Is one that many today, with the ease of modern computers, can redo easily, at one time, when we worked with typewriters… this was not the case. If you missed knowing that era… look it up!

exercise

Easy movements, slow, mind focused on how your body is able to move easily into the different stances. then taking the time to sit and reflect on how we are coping with the day to day opportunities that come our way. That is a personal activity that one should do daily. The world around us is busy, constantly moving, so often, we move into the day and adjust our energy to merge in and out of the constant ebb and flow of what is happening around us, Not taking into consideration the affect the jarring and the noise will have on our own peace of mind, The effects are not always positive. In making time to take 10 – 15 min. in the day to meditate, contemplate you can give yourself an energizing lift. Even 3 – 5 minutes of silence with your elbows propped on a desk.. and your chin, cupped in your hands can produce a quiet calm that gives you an energizing lift, the body/mind relaxation during a busy day can increase productivity and do wonders for YOU, YOU matter.

With a prayerful mind, put your heart into everything you do,

Even when you’ve put in your best effort, you may have overlooked something . With a humble mind, take a second look to check for mistakes or oversights.

PL2014.7

We work better and we are more efficient and effective when our energy is balanced. We feel better and are able to get a better night’s sleep when we are happy with ourselves. There is an expression, “Misery loves company” ….. ….. personally, I’m happy to let the miserable enjoy their chosen way of life.. I prefer to be happy and live with kindness and goodness in my life. it is so much more freeing.. and it all begins with a genuine smile.

weather

It is hot, it is humid, not a breeze to be had, it is the kind of day you want to conserve your energy. If possible it was the kind of day to stay inside and catch up on activities that will allow you to be comfortable .. I had visitors today, in both cases, they brought food…. I didn’t have to cook… it was wonderful…. I had made a soup… my Dad was very firm, when I found it hot, his remedy was a nice bowl of hot soup. That or on the odd occasion I was allowed a cup of tea. Being the eldest I was not allowed coffee, tea, sweets, etc. To this day I am grateful, I have never had a sweet tooth, or a desire to drink pop, soft drinks, or alcohol beverages. So, when I got in from getting gas and a few necessities, I made a chicken soup with pure bone broth, veggies, and beans. Old fashion remedy, but it worked, What have you been doing to cope with the heat we have had this summer

Start today with a fresh outlook

Even though people and situations may look the same, they are constantly changing. Start each day with a fresh mind.

tomorrow I will have been in the apartment one month – the only constant in life is change.

bom dia

A different season. temperatures are somewhat cooler this morning, but who knows what we will experience by end of day. The humidity levels have been so draining.

The move has gone well, the house is now sold, belongs to someone else… Yay! I do miss my garden(s) especially the trees that are now giving fruit. but.. such is life.. now I am adjusting to living in an apartment and parking in an underground maze of cars…. metal sculptures on rubber wheels that wait for us to need them again.

There is one car down there that is kept like a polished jewel, one day I will meet the owner, it is a baby blue jeep. Not once have I seen it with a spec of dust on it, it just looks so “pretty”…. mine has already been christened, with cement scrapes and scratches.

“Oh! and guess what!” I finally found my storage container with the pasta etc. in it. Yay! Let’s see… and oh yes, yesterday I treated the hardwood floors to a Magnolia Home carpet. (by Joanna Gaines)(Loloi) It is a runner not a full carpet.. the cats love it. I enjoy the contrast of it against the hardwood floor. Slowly my new “home” is taking shape. You saw yesterday the mask I found.. lots of good positive energy there!!!

Eartha was here yesterday, she helped me with the magnesium creams/spray .. getting ready to work on the “ZEN” room. There is a teaser for you.. I’m really looking forward to enjoying the “ZEN” room. fyi. the magnesium cream does seem to give breathing room to the neuropathy visits. I have found the topical use of magnesium more effective (for me) then supplements. Which end up in my digestive system.. I want it where I need it.

Think of the timing before you say “but”

When stating your opinion, make sure you are being respectful of others’ opinions. Be mindful of this when you speak.

bonjour!

——————– doors found in Australia——————-

I am an avid explorer in the virtual world always searching out good locations to film/do photo shoot in, I was sent a site location yesterday by a fellow photographer from France.

I’d like to show you my experience while touring the site he sent me, I took the solo flight. It was an amazing journey through space, the artists who created this experience were spot on.. It is a meditation in itself.

in the bottom picture you can see me floating through space. It is a location I will go back to when I have more time, It was an unexpected delight. Anyone interested in taking the “trip” can connect with me and I’ll send you the LM (coordinates)

If you are wanting to visit all the doors that will be featured in today’s Thursday Doors, this is the link to Dan’s No Facilities site. https://nofacilities.com/2025/02/27/doors-to-and-from-errands/

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a turning point.

Enjoy your day everyone! Till soon.

actions

It is not the colour of the hair, or the clothes you wear, what is important is the quality of the time you share when in each other’s company.

Compromise and hesitation tend to make things more complicated. Compromising and holding back your true feelings only serves to make things even more complicated. Always be true to yourself.

Let’s have a humble mind. Once you think, “that’s good enough,” you become blind to the opportunities to be more creative. (PL2015.30,2022.30)

Oyashikiri

Actions speak louder than words.

love October

Always do your best to be a better person.

If you are content with the status quo, your progress will stop. Always seek for ways to improve yourself and continue to move forward one step at a time. ^(PL2014.12)

ohhh there is magic in the air, the mystical and the witching themes are everywhere…. ghosts and goblins sneak out of hiding and float happily past on their way to hide-a-way where they can enjoy a ghoulish brew. I tried all day yesterday and the night before to get into the Fifty Linden Friday Halloween venue… there are a ton of free gifts and spooky items to be had.. sale items are all 50 linden. I was determined, I tried again first thing on getting into the office today…. when there is a will, there is always a way!!

I can see some of you shaking your heads.. it is not even mid month yet… let me tell you, there are pumpkins and Halloween decor everywhere ….. I’m not alone in my love of the ” Halloween season” What other time can you take your pet dragon out for a walk. ^wink..

start witching…. have a booootiful day!

Be who you are, allow your creativity/ imagination shine. One should never judge a book by its cover.

The past leads to now and now leads to the future. Life is an accumulation of moments. Cherish each one.

Oct fun

Sometimes we have to go into the night and dance .. ” no one is watching” and if they are, who cares!… Let the moment happen, enjoy the freedom of movement and space.

Yesterday I finally got to have my BD lunch with my niece and nephew. It was the last day of the Moon Festival offerings at our favourite buffet. 3/4 of this plate is filled with shrimps cooked in different ways, the green beans you can see, I got a couple of slices of ginger beef, and same with the salt and pepper pork. The only noodle is the decoration you see on top, Notice I did take a piece of corn on the cob that sits in a lovely butter sauce in the heating trays.

I know. Last bd meal for this year!!!

Being asked for a favor is a chance. When someone asks for a favor from you,, this is a chance for you to help others. Face the chance proactively,
Perfect Liberty 2023.

I love the colour, the costumes, the sharing of creativity that happens in October, https://pin.it/2Ac7aiV click on it if you dare….. Have a great start to the week everyone,
