Faith

Would I take this journey

Yes I would …

No doubt …

No regrets …

Because I know

that God is always with me …

If I arrived at this path

I would know that it is a journey

meant for me to take …

lessons, challenges, opportunities

they are gifts, that make us who we are.

Each day is like a new canvas

I can’t wait to see what I will discover

as my adventure begins

This morning’s lesson is about, not being swayed by the past. It is what we do now, that counts. When we begin the day with a fresh outlook, We will be blessed with an adventure from begging to end.

It happens to all of us, at some time in our lives, we come across a “road block”… as a writer, writer’s block, when I’m in a creative mood with my sculptures, and suddenly my creative moment goes on sabbatical, it is another form of “road block” In PL we are taught to take a step back, and to look at how we have been tackling our “challenge” (task at hand). If I walk away do something else, then come back, I am often able to “see” with a different set of eyes. When I was painting, I’d find that there were some forms of expression that I just couldn’t agree with. I would keep wanting to add more paint, or take some away, make adjustments, this would go on till my canvas looked like one big mess of colour. Instinctively I would know that I had “missed” the moment…. the ah ha… of the expression was gone, no matter how much I was to persist, it would not come back. It was time to acknowledge that I had not been working with my full makoto, and the result was before me. Like it or not, what I had achieved was putting my “mixed emotions/feelings” on the canvas, there was nothing to do but accept it and move on. Trying to accept the abstract mess of colour was never satisfying, especially if I tried to convince myself that this is what I must have been trying to express. What is the expression, you can fool some people some time, but you can’t fool all of the people all the time??? And, you may try to fool yourself, the reality is, your inner self always knows what is real and what is not.

In Norman Rockwell’s print, you can see that everyone is giving their full attention to getting the “road block” to move out-of-the-way. (found on imachild.wordpress.com) When we are faced with a difficulty,challenge, obstacle, if we step back and think about how we can creatively get around our problem… usually with patience, the obstacle will move along.

Have a wonderful day today, may your day be filled with calm, serene and beautiful moments!!

la foret des soupirs

Adult – very inviting landscaping. You know I’m always drawn to the little cottage off in the distance. =^_^=’ http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hot%20Bodies/199/243/22

The Xmas tree has been put out, but there is no snow yet, the water is clear and inviting, the mountain off in the distance speaks of worlds to conquer, yet here on the deck, the birds and crickets sings, all is peaceful.

In the background I hear the voice of Edith Piaff singing songs from a long ago time. It is very tranquil here. I may stay and visit awhile. The outside world is so busy, everyone is in a hurry. The radio must be on in that little chalet I saw, it was, the room in the chalet is a little oasis of comfort and charm. I left the SL(Second Life) to attend to every day errands, when I returned this evening, there was a couple happily enjoying the sharing possibilities provided in the cabin. I left =^_^= 3 is company.

When we venture down paths we’ve not traveled before, we are more likely to encounter new experiences, and new people. In this build I discovered a world that is very sensuous, the designer has applied her skills to recreating a place that is inviting. Her woodlands, home and furnishings are brought together in a piece of virtual art that is pleasing to the senses.

I bring this approach to my adventures in life, Life is Art,(PL, Precept #1) how we interact with the tools and canvas provided will influence the outcome of our day and lives. Choose to use words and gestures that are kind, polite and courteous. In this way, we help shape our day in a very positive way.

PL Precept #15, All is a Mirror to recreate an environment such as the one visited today, the builder has to have lived, or experienced the “virtual world” they wished to share with visitors. The site is group owned, it was founded by Leesha Azara (Pearl.solano)

PL Precept #18 Each moment is a Turning Point I love this Precept, it is so positive and gives such hope. Think about it, it is NOW, EACH moment is a Turning Point.!

Living in Perfect Liberty is so amazing. Blessings everyone
