Today is day for some quiet reflection. I scrolled thru some of my pictures .. taking trips down memory lane. Found some doors I’d like to revisit.

Then I found the “thought for the day” that I’d like to use today…(is the Universe sending me a message here)

Leave the past in the past, and live fully in the now

Stop living in the past. You can only focus on things that are happening right now in front of you.

re: changing of the computers from laptop to desktop ..I am thrilled to be back using a desk top, I had to practice patience, and depend on the goodwill of friends who helped me out on this project. I am happy to report that as of this moment, I have three working monitors and seem to be able to access programs and files that I think I want. “jai guru dev,

gates

Good morning, have a look.. that last gate, isn’t it interesting? I wondered, if it was still used, and how deep was/is the drop going up or down once it is opened, The red one I found inviting, probably because it is red. The first one, is forbidding, I’m not encouraged to explore there, to me, it says, Keep away! What are your thoughts? Which one should we explore? I’m game !! ?

Good morning, welcome to a small town along the highways as I made my way towards Valleyfield, Quebec.

.I looked up and saw the door leading …out to no where – then I spied this old concrete structure with the wonderful wrap around veranda.. it must have been a great vantage point for the town parades in the days of its past glory. I am thinking it could have been the village general store.., It was a delightful find.

Today’s thought -reflection.

Improve yourself to have a kinder heart

Do what you can to be caring and considerate to make others happy. (PL2021.3)

Here is something else to think about. The other day my neighbour said to me ” soon we won’t be able to enjoy a banana” .. when I Iooked puzzled she said.. “no seeds in the watermelons, no seeds in the bananas, our food is being so manipulated (GMO) there are no seeds to carry on the wonderful fruits and vegetables as we knew them. Sure enough, when I got home, my watermelon, had no seeds, not one. and…. I’m told you have to pick where you get your bananas, they are not always enjoyable to eat (texture)

Have a good day everyone!

Bom dia, how are you today. It’s Thursday (quinta-feira)… Today’s quote is from the 2021 PL Calendar. Not having an English calendar this year (from headquarters in Japan) has been very worthwhile. I have had to resort to perusing all previous years from my files to use PL motivational quotes to share with you each day. it’s been a positive experience.

Let’s being today with a smile, Let’s start the day with a positive outlook, looking forward to what we can discover. (PL2021.12)

There is something about buildings that were built in years gone by…especially the old wooden structures.. and the old churches. I have a lot of infill builds happening in my neighbourhood. Somehow they lack the warmth and character of “older” builds. Those of us who have been taking pictures of buildings/doors/windows… architecture in general… our “vaults” are full of “historical” visions of the past.

No two doors are the same, no two people are the same, YET

Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest, and start your day with excitement, (PL2023.22)

Everyday, we walk by doors and never see them. How many times have you walked by someone and not even been aware you’d done so… or … you see people all around you YET…. you cannot recognize or identify anyone you just passed. We have become so used to having “busy” around us, that we “tune out” and often are so wrapped up in our own thoughts.. we miss “the” moment.

The picture bottom left, When I first saw it, I was captured by the closed door and the open entrance right beside it. on closer inspection, I saw that they had different house numbers. Right away, I thought, “which entrance would I want to explore?” Do you have a preference?

I have learned over the years… to never judge a book by its cover.… what doorway would inspire a story from you today?

jeudi -Doors

Beautiful friendships, so appreciated that Thursday Doors has opened up the joy of sharing. Marie Claude is sharing some of her pictures with us taken from her travels in the Province of Quebec…. Look at the bear! What has he discovered? I loved the flowers flowing out from this barn…. and look at the beautiful presentation of the flowers along the barn walls. You can feel the love and the artistry the creators of these views had… they laboured to create a view for everyone to enjoy!

This world is full of beauty and people who share their passion for nature- Let’s appreciate the positives!

Respect the existence of each other.

The world consists of people with different circumstances sand different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other. (PL2023.14)

quinto feira

There are so many doors that I’ve come across over the years.. this one is not fancy, it isn’t part of historic site, but it is part of a very welcoming veranda .. on a busy street of a small town where tourist flock in the summer to be near the water. The lawn is always manicured and the flowering shrubs seem to always be in bloom, at least when I have been visiting the town. The chairs are placed so that the owner(s) can sit and watch the world go by.

In today’s busy world where usually everyone is in a hurry, needing to get this done, or get somewhere, I found this little bit of “tranquility” inviting. The door seemed solid, reliable and there to ensure the visitors were welcomed .. either to sit and visit on the veranda or be admitted inside. The house with the pretty veranda, inviting chairs, without the door would be “a blank wall ” .. look … without the door, there is no invitation to come and sit a spell, agree? The door is what makes the “magic”

When was the last time you sat and just watched the world go by. I mean a lazy laid back, sit and simply enjoy the moment… moment? No cell phone, iPad, tablet .. just YOU.. oh ok, maybe an ice cold beverage.

Today’s words of wisdom..

really ?

Take your pick, what will you have today?

Ever wonder what is on your mind? Last night I had this brilliant idea, but of course, when I woke this morning, it was gone.

Recent conversation. Friend. I hear you got a cat. Me. Yes I did. Friend. .So, what is he/she like? Me. I don’t know. Friend. You don’t know? Me. No, he came in and I haven’t seen him since.

Think I’m joking…. guess what… I’m not.

So this is my day, how is yours?

For Thursday Doors, please visit Dan’s No Facilities site.https://nofacilities.com/2024/06/27/day-of-travel-doors/ there will be a lot of doors to discover, enjoy!

OK I do know this, he is eating, using his litter and except for one brief conversation at me, he is quiet. NO, he has not come near me, or have we been in the same room together. Does a 5 second, pause and acknowledge and then skedaddle count?

Thurs. doors

Your surroundings reflect your state of mind. Everything that appears before you is a reflection of your state of mind. If you work to improve your mind and actions, then what appears in the mirror will also be well balanced.
