With the lunar new year not far off… I let my thoughts drift to another place and time… in my youth, I dreamed of being able to wander the grounds of a monastery high in the mountains. I knew I would feel at home .. looking out into the distance… hearing the soft chanting of the monks… the sweet smell of incense and sandalwood wafting through the air. I never made it to China but my Mom and sister did… . no their interests were not mine… but they did get to explore and bring home memories of a land that was very different from the world we knew. My time abroad was spent in Japan.. smiles with a soft stirring in my heart as I recall the cherry blossoms… and the rice fields as i wandered and took in life in Japan. I loved it there, but I missed hearing English and French, oui, je suis Canadianne …

We can’t always do all the things we want to… but we can explore and take in the world around us, every day there is something new to discover. We need only look around, and reach out, be open to try something new, something different, try something you have never done before. It’s a thought, think about it.

Once upon a time .. we used an expression, “arm chair traveler” have you heard it? do you know it’s meaning? Now I am an “internet buff” I use different platforms to explore my interests. In person, travel to far distant places is no longer a possibility for me, I’m just not interested in airports, long lines, customs, politics.. I simply want to enjoy life and the pleasures available to me. I am thankful for the experiences I have had, and the many wonderful people I’ve met along the way…. now I make no apologies for making time for ME… my interests, my joy at being able to explore places via the creative efforts of others.. I am learning and appreciating the talent and skills of creative minds that impact my world in a positive way.

I discovered I like being happy. I like sharing that happiness… and if it isn’t what others want who are in my space.. I move on. simply said. life is to be enjoyed.

Always express yourself for the happiness of others as well as yourself.

The happiness of those around you can lead to your own happiness. Cultivate a heart to always wish for the happiness of others.

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 !! ?

Have a joyful day by being a little more creative.

you will enjoy your day more by adding a little creativity to your daily routine.

Happiness

When one’s spiritual needs are met by an untroubled inner life. Happiness comes when your work and words are benefit to yourself and others.

today

Live Radiantly as the Sun. Strive to always be bright and cheerful so you can enliven those around you. (2020.27)

For me it is allergy season, (and let’s not forget the pesky bugs/mosquitoes)… I do my morning rounds and then come home.. There is an ad on the telly … where the windshield of a car is covered in pollen. Argh. If you suffer from allergies, you know how that picture can strike horror… ugh. I’m fortunate that as I’ve progressed in life (another way of saying aged) my symptoms are actually much diminished. AND no matter how it looks, I wear a hat with a netting all around it. Works wonders,

In my younger day, EGO would have likely not added such an item to my wardrobe essentials, Now I have two! One in a light beige and the other in that woodsy gray/green. one is smaller and fits my head just right, but the other was the only left in the store, it is bigger… but ., you know what.,, it covers a broader part of my shoulders, At first I was concerned my little friends would react.. but “food” is my calling card.. they don’t care if the human is wearing a silly hat,, They even know my car.. I’m not parked yet and I see the animals making their way to the “diner”…. Depending on my time of arrival, they can be impatient and scold and call out their impatience.

I have been doing this long enough now, I hear the early morning calls when they begin their mating songs.. and then there is the call of the babies… when parents are out getting food, The one bird I’ve gotten to know better is the woodpecker. It is fascinating to me how they have found ways to communicate to me, what they like and where they prefer me to put it.

Change is the only constant in life.

I was asked the other day if I think of myself as a happy person. YES I DO… and in fact, I now can say .. I also know contentment. …. do smile today,. life is to be lived and enjoyed,

3rd. day 2020

Have you ever felt that you live in a world, where no one really knows your name. OK they may know your name, but you are just another face in the crowd. This is a time of year, when family and friends gather to share memories of the past, and the possibilities that lie ahead.

I was reminded yesterday how fragile life can be. One moment you are working, living busy in a fast moving society. Then suddenly you “wake” to find that you are now on the other side of the street, and “life” seems to be passing you by. Sometimes by choice, and other times, ‘boom” for whatever reason, you just can’t get on or off the bus.

This is a “condition” that can happen to any of us. Rich or poor, it affects everyone, money is not what buys or determines how happy we are. The answers, solutions, they are all varied and different for every human being is unique. We all love, cry, laugh, and “feel”. Emotions are real.

The philosophy of the Church of Perfect Liberty is to help us recognize the ups and downs of everyday life, and help us understand our SELVES so that “we” can recognize what in US, needs fixing, repairing, strengthening. Truth is, we can only change ourselves.

Happiness begins from within, I’m a glutton for “happy”. Smiles and beams just thinking of how nice it is to be happy. And YOU dear reader, my heartfelt thanks to each and everyone of you, who share time with me during the day, night, weeks, and months. I love reading your thoughts, seeing your “visual expressions” you are “Beauty” within my world. thank you for all the happiness we’ve shared. I am looking forward to the sunshine of 2020 with you.

Share the beauty in you today, SMILE it is so becoming.

Use what you need to use without hesitation. Your things, your money, your knowledge, and your strengths are all a part of you. Utilize them to their fullest potential without hesitation.
Perfect Liberty 2019.29

Do things in Moderation. Whenever you overdo something, you will lose balance in your life. Express yourself appropriately without being overly attached or detached.
Perfect Liberty 2016.29

FYI the Chinese New Year this coming lunar year will fall on January 25th. For many the close proximity of the two new year celebrations will mean a lot of activity and energy. The Chinese new year is focused very much on “family”. Leading up to this important time of year, we “clean” our “homes”, physically and mentally.

For those familiar with the I Ching. Hexagon 58 Tui the top three lines mirror the bottom ones. broken line, followed by two unbroken lines.

Joy and Harmony! No doubt. Confidence. No regrets. Advancement. Happiness! Faith in the temporary causes disillusionment. Attraction!
I ching = a philosophical prophecy this book published 1972 Reiss

Smile it is contagious!

Good morning everyone, I was challenged to post a picture of dog(s) Pffft. easy task, since I don’t get to FB much except through my blog, I have given you pictures of dogs here, to achieve the goal, of dogs for smiles!!!

I didn’t do a typo the quote today is from the 29th, year 2011.

Lack of Explanation is a sign of your lazy mind. Sometimes you incorrectly assume they should know this already. Always strive to explain things thoroughly with a ind heart.
