A shoe can be a work of art -beautiful to look at – but impossible to wear
Love is a word often spoken, said, but certainly not shared
Lets try today to not necessarily say the word, but to show someone we care.
Actions do speak louder than words. If you can express yourself in words, do that too..
The “art” of Love is a full time, 24/7 passion
PL Principle #3 – I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things
When you hear” Let’s interact Proactively”, what comes to mind? There is a lesson in PL, that with society changing as rapidly as it is, we have to keep our eyes and mind in tune to the changes and learn to deal with them proactively. I agree, however in my daily meditations, I find that there are times when I struggle to be proactive with mySELF. I underlined, read and reread a sentence once that began “Come back home to yourself” during an especially difficult time in my life, To this day, I pray for the strength to remain true to the belief that I am where I am meant to be, and to give thanks for getting this far. I will accept and surrender to my present moments, the difficult ones, and the easy ones. LOL and here is the biggie for me… I will stop trying to control the process.…..I will trust in the process.…. I will be proactive with the guiding light of God.
The more knowledge shared/given away, the more will be received – Tao
Many blessings on this wonderful day, may you find joy and sunshine, today, tomorrow and always. Oyashikiri
I first heard that term in a book by Melody Beattie, The language of Letting Go. Its been a lesson that I’ve had to work on for most of my adult life.
Being responsible, owning what you do, and the situations you find yourself in.
Learning to face situations head on, learning to focus on the moment. If we do this, and truly believe in our passion, a path will open up. You will find a way to be comfortable with where you are, and what you are feeling. Each moment is a new creation to be savored and experienced fully. Embrace the healing presence of God within us. Quietly and with a new zest for life, we open our minds to rich new ideas. ideas, that help us give of ourselves, our talents and our resources. God is life itself. Through the presence of God within, the old washes away, everything is new again. PL Precept #1 – Life is Art.. every day is a new beginning.
Daily we are given directions or a nudge by the Universe, do we see them, do we act on them, or do we simply walk on by without really experiencing the moment. Let us let us learn to express ourselves freely. We are able to experience the joy of being creative because we have the framework of laws, morals and rules to follow.
PL Precept #3 God appears through One’s Self.
PL Principle #1 I will live paying careful attention, putting Makoto (sincerity) into all I say and do.
Interior silence – the inner stillness t which meditation/prayer leads, is where the “spirit” secretly anoints the soul and heals our deepest wounds. (John of the cross)
May God’s richest blessings continue in abundance for you today. Oyashikiri

Let love in. many of us, get so caught up in work, and life that we forget how important love is in our lives. We forget the little things, we loose touch with a part of our inner selves. We stop listening to our bodies, we don’t eat properly, or we fixate on how and what we eat, we are always looking out at the world, directing our attention to activities that take us “away” from our selves, and often those closest to us. Then one day we wake up feeling dispirited and exhausted and wonder what happened. We didn’t even see it coming.
How often have we heard the cliché/expression – Stop and Smell the Roses… sometimes ill-health or something tragic has to happen before we stop to face our “demons”. Let us take steps to avoid a burnout, or if you are in one, let’s take the step that moves us beyond the moment into a “new day” and into a new exhilerating adventure. Value those who are near to you, and most of all, value yourSELF. Recognize the person you are, if you are having trouble with that and you belong to a church, speak with your minister, in PL our ministers are trained and always available 24/7 to help
Through consultation given by PL ministers you receive personal guidance tailored to your individual character and situation, We each one of us has our own unique personality and lifestyle, happiness is built by establishing wishes and goals, and then working towards achieving them in our daily lives.
Be open to the impossible! It is hard to think outside the box when we are stuck inside the box.. be “aware” new doors are always opening in front of us.
Have a great day everyone, the sun is shining here and it is COLD -28 or some silly number like that. But sharing with you, always wraps me in sunshine. Oyashikiri
Do you value your intuition?
Do you act on your intuition?
When a thought pops into your mind, do you suddenly have that ahh HA! moment, in Pl we believe that it is a nudge from a Higher Power…. God is sending a message. We hear so often “act on your gut instinct” don’t hesitate, usually your first choice is the right one. Have “faith”, do it, make that decision, or make that move. Life is NOW, we really don’t know what tomorrow will bring… if you miss it, it can’t be replayed, or relived.
Feel the JOY of being in the NOW….. Let Go and Live. Oyashikiri
Blessings to you and yours, today, tomorrow and always.

Even if you don’t have what you need, you will find a way. Be creative in your efforts. If you fixate on what you don’t have, You will never be blessed with wisdom and way to solve your problems. Think creatively to get past any obstacles in your way .Often the Universe steps in and forces a slow down, or a rest that we don’t take time for. the things that come into our lives, including people and circumstances, happen regardless of what we would prefer, or what is convenient for us. Nature has a sense of humor that is all her own. =^_^= we, (human beings) are born with the ability to experience pain so that we can avoid pushing our bodies beyond natural limits. Do we listen?
PL Percept # 18 Each moment is a turning point.
Good morning everyone…. have a positive and happy day! Oyashikiiri…….

Have you ever felt the draw to return to your dream. You wake up and feel that where you’ve been, and what you’ve seen was so so very much a part of who you are. Have you heard of “astral projection”? At one time, there was a lot of talk, discussion and study on the ability of the spiritual form to travel across space and explore other dimensions, and even visit family and friends.
I don’t hear a lot about that these days, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. Maybe it is because I feel that my night time travels are an extension of my days or “awake” time. I think it helped that my Mother always shared her dream experiences with me, so it wasn’t out of the ordinary. Just matter of fact. Like the TAO/God being a constant factor, it wasn’t a relationship I needed to find, it was part of my daily life, life breathing. Respect for nature and all mankind was natural because it was an extension of who I was. Life is my studio, and I am the artist.
Dreams are part of my inventory, and astral journeys are part of my research. Life is good, life is full, and most of all, life is love.
When you live with love in your heart, you enjoy the full spectrum of life. Jai Guru Dev (TM) Oyashikiri (PL) Amen =^_^=

Transformation “a marked change”
Today’s lesson is to realize that we have changed over time, and to take ownership of these changes. “Discover the Joy of Transforming Yourself” Change is ongoing, changes are a continuous factor in our lives, if I’m focused/mindful, would I think that the changes are that remarkable? Hmm something to ponder don’t you think? Certainly I see changes from when I was in a career phase, to how I am enjoying life now. But I loved what I did, I loved the challenges of going in to work every day, certainly I did the grumbling and groaning along some of the paths, but over all it was rewarding to watch projects take shape and reach their goals. Every day was a new beginning and I still practice that today. I grew up believing and living with TAO (Universe/God) and the Taoist philosophy -the only constant in life is change – We are all ONE with the Universe… Transformations are part of life. How are you doing with the changes in your life?
“Count your Blessings” =^_^= The key to change is within ...
May the Universe shine bright for you today & Love fill your world, today, tomorrow and always Oyashikiri
