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!

por que

Be able to quickly shift your state of mind. Once something has happened, you can’t undo it. Be able to shift your state of mind quickly so that you can take on a situation with a fresh perspective.

Being considerate of others is just as important as what works for you.

dragon is on its way… soon.. officially 2.10.24

A change in weather can bring on cold sores, headaches, arthritis flare ups, and the list goes on. Not much can be done about it, weather patterns are changing and have been for some time now. The other day I heard a mother waited for hours in hospital emergency to get a prescription because she has been unable for 2 years now to find a family doctor, and the medication is needed in on ongoing basis for one of her children.

I remember thinking.. wow and my diabetic medication is on back order because medical practitioners have been prescribing it for weigh loss??? Its time we took our lives back, not be swayed by the hype and the media, but start watching what we eat, how we eat, and making sure we are living in a way that will maintain our health over the years to come .. without “needing” pharmaceutical products … that said.. have you tried to find a “real” watermelon lately. I looked for one that was organic, didn’t look pale pink and still had seeds. Did I succeed?

Some things in life we have no control over, ie..someone else’s health/behaviour, but we can take care that WE are eating, sleeping and being kind to OURselves. Did you realize how hard the body works to digest what we eat…? Do you eat after 7 pm? Do you allow for the body to fully digest a meal before you start feeding it again? I was bad last night, when Keeper went out after midnight, I saw the left over veggies and couldn’t resist snagging a roasted parsnip. Bad me. I had told myself the other day I was going to make a supreme effort to let my body get a decent number of hours for sleep.. and not have to digest food .. I stop eating after my evening meal. Yet.. where was my will power/good intention in the wee hours.??? This is something I have to do for me. No one else can do it for me.

Get things started with Grit. If you work on things in daily life with the attitude of “let’s do it!” you will feel a power to accomplish things. People around you will rely on you.

What do you think of this morning’s calendar quote?

Please join in prayer for those who require extra healing and positive energy. It has been to many a very distressing and turbulent time. ”All is a mirror”

Dragons

Strive to live with a positive outlook everyday. Put your whole heart into whatever you do. With motivation you will feel joy and excitement.
Perfect Liberty 2017.20

When I was younger, my Dad would take me to Chinatown with him … there I would see the dragon’s performing outside a new restaurant or shop that was opening. It was always so festive and at the same time solemn – the gods were being asked to surround the new venture with good fortune and prosperity.

Dragons can fly, breathe fire and are extremely powerful, strong and intelligent.they have an extended range of supernatural powers. They breathe clouds, move seasons and control the waters of rivers, lakes and seas. Linked with Taoism, yang masculine principle of heat,light,sun and action as opposed to the feminine principle of coolness, darkness, repose, softness and moonlight.

PL Precept # 1 Life is Art…

PL Precept # 15 All is a Mirror.

How many dragons do you have in your life?

In Mythology, a female dragon is called a drakaina…. but, I just look in the mirror. wink.

snow dragons

can you see his /her eye.. and her friend is turning away

Ok.. so it is not easy to see, and the screen and window don’t help. But outside my window out back is deep in snow.. and I would not have gotten the same look. We’ve had over 24 hours of continuous snow fall guys! Big white fluffy stuff. In the backyard for me, it fell over at least 4 – 6 inches of water that had pooled due to our spring weather of the last few weeks.

You have to know it was very wet and heavy snow. Beautiful as it is, it is not easy to remove, or move out of the way. So I was rewarded by the snow dragon coming this morning to say hello. She has had a great time, frolicking in the snow.. All too soon for her, the season will change here… I won’t get to see her till next year.. Mighty thoughtful of her, right =^_^=

My nephew posted a wonderful picture, he calls pin hole photography. New to me, thought I’d share .. this will balance out.. my screen shot…haahaha. love my funny. Goodness me. I am giddy.. guess it’s the thought that I might get out of the house today.

There will always be a way. If you persist and be creative without giving up you will find solutions that you had not considered before.

Happy land

dragon, start of.. 4.30.17

Once upon a time a dragon came to visit. “Oh” said I, ” what pretty colours you are! ”

“hmmmp” he said, “I’m just passing through”

So, I took a picture of him and posted him on Instagram, I went about my day and didn’t think much more about him. I was having a “dragon” kind of day, and really wasn’t that interested in what he had to say.

The next day, I was busy with activities that I couldn’t put away. Today was the day, so I had to be present and social in a “family” kind of way. By mid day, after guests were gone and I was now back home on my own. All I could think of was that I wanted to pray. It was pouring rain, the clouds were bleak and gray, but nothing was going to stand in my way. The quiet, tranquility of the church, the peace of love and community, was drawing me, like a moth to a flame.

Silently I prayed, my words and thoughts, came, they flowed, they flew into the air, the heaviness, the pain, slowly drained away. PL Precept # 11 Always be with God.

PL Precept # 5 One’s Self is Lost by being Emotional

PL Principle #2 I will not have complaints about others, matters, nor the weather. Rather I will always be creative and will look for short comings in my own thinking and actions,

When I came home, the dragon looked at me and winked. The brat I thought. I reached out and with steady hand, and knowing actions, his friends came to light.

happyland 5.2.17

Just like that… the dragon smiled, his friends pranced and I was smitten with their charm. My grin went from ear to ear… life is good when we believe and trust in God

naughty or nice

Have you been naughty, have you been nice, hear that a lot around this time of year. It is all about perspective isn’t it. When someone is being naughty in someone’s view, he/she could be being very nice and totally appreciated by someone else. Perspective.

We are all so different, so unique in our own ways. That is a gift from above. The ability to be different, so that each and every one of us is blessed in an ability to enjoy and appreciate the creative expressions of others.

The Red Blacks (Canadian Football League) brought the cup home to Ottawa yesterday, they won the Grey Cup.. It is a very big deal to football fans, a huge BIG deal. Congratulations to all you die-hard fans out there.. what an exhilarating over time period it had to have been.

I won’t spoil it for you, by sharing with you, the creator’s intro .. the curator and owner of the Split Screen Installation Space, is long time SL member Dividni Shostakovich

de Efteling, Nederlands

We are in de Efteling, Nederlands, following the whimsical adventure of the little elf in me who wants simply to stroll and play under the mushrooms on this snowy day.
