statement pictures

This picture along with the next one, were in my inbox this morning.

Both had me looking at the screen, with multiple thoughts zinging through the old gray cells. The caption came with the picture.

I have too many different scenarios that come to mind when I want to write my own take on these. I love the potential these offered. Whoever started this sharing of creativity would be fun to catch up with.. to see how they came up with the idea.. what sparked their artistic “expression”

The top drawing.. yes! I could relate to posting that a couple of times.. Of course silently in my head… I wish I had the light bulb in my art drawer to have come up with that one.

I am thankful for all of my blessings, and gall darn it… I truly appreciate the brilliant expression of others too. How about it… do the above pictures inspire a heading from you???

Today is the 21st everyone Thanksgiving service is at 7PM tonight.

21- Let’s be thankful for everything we have right now

NOW is an accumulation of every moment leading up to it, and everything that continues to progress and develop to become “NOW” Be thankful for everything.

Ancestors Day

fabric friend got for her

Perfect Liberty Calendar … day 11

Appreciate the Makoto (sincerity) of the people who came before you

Everything we have today was built upon the hard work of our ancestors and the people who came before us. Always remember to be thankful and humble and continue to build on their past successes.

The bright colourful fabric you see was purchased and collected by a friend of my sister’s while on a shopping outing. I never met this friend, only heard of her through my sister. I was however, really taken by her selection of fabric, the choices she made, and the colours she was drawn to. This friend passed away last week, leaving a gigantic hole in the lives of her family and friends. It was sudden, no warnings, simply a chill, and she was gone.

We never know in life when a change will be made in our circle of friends and loved ones. It happens, life is what it is.

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

PL calendar day 10

When you are not having fun, could it be because you are being lazy?

Sometime you feel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything.

At times like this, just get up and move your body or work your mind to the fullest extent.

A rainbow caught yesterday afternoon… someone was at the right place at the right time. Thank you Ms California for sharing. =^_^=

Another reader gave me a big fat smile with this sharing

click on the above link =^_^= are they not adorable?

Tomorrow Monday is the 11th. Ancestors Day service is at 10:00 a.m.

Today’s service will be at 10 a.m See you there.

a special tool box

57c7cee1a7d92af8579ff422bed20e57 In cleaning up, going through boxes, I came across a file folder from days gone by. In the file folder I had copies of a paper I had typed and copied to enclose with special little boxes I made to send to friends.

Special Tool Box, for someone important

Rubber band to remind you how wonderful a hug is, to give or receive

Tissue – to remind you to dry someone’s tears, perhaps your own, so you can see the tears of others.

Button – to remind you to “button your lips” to keep from saying mean things about others or talking when it is not appreciated.

Toothpicks – to remind you to “pick ” out the good qualities of everyone including you.

Band-aid – to remind you of healing hurt feelings, either yours or someone else’s

Candy kiss – to remind you that everyone needs a nice treat occasionally

Gold thread – to remind you that friendship is the golden thread that ties together the hearts of everyone

Eraser – to remind you that everyone makes mistakes sometimes that is all right

Lifesaver candy – to remind you to think of ne as your lifesaver, whenever you need to talk, feel free to come to me

Mint – to remind you that you are worth a MINT to me!

I can not take credit for this idea, I just remember it making the rounds at the hospital I worked at many years ago. I sat on many committees and being a teaching hospital, I also had to meet with peers in other hospitals on various matters. This little “piece” was much talked about at the time. Everyone thought it to be such a great idea. Finding it again, has brought back memories of another time and place. I also think that it very much applies to NOW. What do you think?

It’s interesting because it’s different

Even if someone totally disagrees with you or does things differently, you may learn something from them. Avoid getting trapped in the mindset, “this is the way it has to be” and free your mind consider other possibilities.

Bom dia to all, Have a great day!

Day 8 PL Calendar

First, accept everything

Life is filled with moments, sometimes happy and at times inconvenient. It is important to first accept every situation as it occurs and try to accept and understand it for what it is.

Hula Hamster JOY

hula hamster xy This precious handmade hamster, makes my heart sing. She puts a smile in my heart just by sitting there smiling back at me.

hula hamster x The last few days have been difficult for me. I have found myself drifting into a state of “low drive and little interest ” When I could I retreated to my bed, the quiet of a darkened room and the desire to sleep. My sleep mates were only too happy to crawl under cover and enjoy time out from the weather that was raging outside.

Today I had to go out, there were errands that needed doing, so after a lazy start to the day, I took myself off to do what needed doing. When I arrived at the church I was surprised with JOY, the adorable Hula Hamster. Oh what a gift. I melted and was totally taken in by her charm.

Loving caring friendships are priceless. JOY lifted me out of the shadows , back into the sunshine. Olinda weaved a magic spell, I am blown away. Thank you. I am reminded that in life, in a split second, the sun can break through the clouds, and all is right again.

hula hamster joy I am so blessed. The Universe always comes through for me, when I allow myself to stumble, my friends are there reminding me, that LOVE, is always with me. God is Love, Love is GOD and we are all ONE

Hula Hamster is handmade and I love her.

Finding a balance between past and the present. – Find a good balance between your present and past experiences.

Appreciate the strengths as well as the shortcoming in others.

and today’s thought.. PL. day 23rd. Once you’ve set out to do something, it is your job. If you accept a task, made the choice, took the option, whatever, own it.

In PL we believe that when things happen to us, always there is a meaning, or a reason, our actions, behaviours brought us to the/that moment.

buddha waits 2 We are not cast in stone, we are not without feelings, nor are we unaffected by the world around us. Change is the only constant in life, each day, each day, brings a new NOW.

Oyashikiri

Bom dia everyone, here we are mid-week, how joyful is that. Happy Wednesday ! Share a smile it is your gift to the world

” Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing ” Mother Teresa

Day 16 of the PL calendar for 2019

Even thought you may have put your best effort into doing something, you still may have made some mistakes. That is why it is important to always work with a prayerful mind.

Be happy, live to spread happiness and joy wherever you go – people will think you mad, but oh how divine it is to share a smile with another being. A dog wags his tail enthusiastically when you say hello, the cat, rushes to snuggle and purr in your arms. ah there is an unspoken bliss when we are harmonizing. Try it. You may like it.

PL Principle 21 will live in true harmony with the world around me.

Bom dia…

flashback 2006

back yard a2006 The last few days, maybe even weeks, I have found myself thinking of a different time and what was. How a young garden, took shape, and grew till it no longer resembled what was.

back yard 2006

Life mirrors nature, the link between the two has been established since way before I was born. I am only now pulling the fragments of the past into what I have been living and what is to come. I can feel the stirring of new beginnings, I know that I am already well into discovery mode.

Today, day 15 of the PL Calendar – Live with firm determination, thinking that “this will turn out for the best”

Everything in this world progresses an develops. Always be positive, knowing that everything will turn out for the best.

Yesterday I drove to Montreal, the day was bright, balmy and welcoming. Each mile was a new beginning. Even though I have travelled this route many times, it was like a first visit. The landscape along the way, simply would not be still. The shades of late autumn strutted their charms against the blankets of pristine snow. I felt their happy waves, and delighted in the variety of picture postcards they flashed my eager eyes as I drove by. Mother Nature, stayed with me all the way, the best tour guide ever.

2006a Life is a blessing, I am filled with appreciation and gratitude. Thank you all for sharing my world, Life is love, and love is YOU and the world we are in.
