Choo choo train

The little train that could, would and will delight you if you are visiting Brockville. It was a beautiful day, there were people out enjoying the day.. all along the water’s edge.. families and tourists mingled in the sunshine. It was nice to see people out taking time to explore. Lots of dogs being walked, even a musician playing the sax outside the main attraction which was the old railway tunnel, now a tourist attraction.

There was a lot to do and see in Brockville whether it is an outdoor adventure .. scuba diving, kayaking, or a sight seeing tour of the 1000 Islands on the St. Lawrence in a traditional sightseeing cruise or a high speed soft adventure aboard a wildcat. There is something for everyone. We didn’t visit the Aquatarium, but I think Bonnie put it on her list of possible attractions for another visit.

One attraction that I would have loved to try was the Forest Adventure.. TreeTop Trekking -Thousand Islands-.. if you want to know more visit TREETOPTREKKING.COM. You all know I won’t be trying that soon, but a gal can dream =^_^=

If you are going to do it, do it joyfully. If you have to do something, choose to do it with joy and enthusiasm. By doing so, you will experience a deeper sense of beauty.

Please enjoy whatever it is you have to do, sometimes it is a challenge, see it as an opportunity.. do your best, that is all that you can do … then move on.

” As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death”
Leonardo da Vinci

Note to myself.. remember .. it feels good to snuggle into bed at the end of a busy day. Satisfied with the work I got done and the interactions I had with people I met and visited with during the day. Remember to smile. a stranger can become a friend … and I know from experience, the friends we meet along the way are a joy remembered.. always.

Saturday 19

The turning point is now. Life is a sequence of moments called now. You have the key to turn yourself around.
Perfect Liberty 2023.19

Seasons come and go. We accept that, especially when you live in a country like Canada with four seasons, we get to see the end of winter, when the fields are dormant and still waiting for the sun to warm the earth so that new growth will begin … then spring when everything has changed into a world of greens and colour as the early bloomers peak out into the sunshine. Summer is again a different look, you wouldn’t even see the much of the ground because there is growth everywhere. Fall begins when the vibrant reds, orange, and yellows start to paint the landscape with the the cornucopia of autumn colours that blend in against the various greens that are sported by the evergreens.

There is also a different reality,…… the seasons that life takes us through….. from youth, to middle age to maturity…. the seasons vary from individuals, in my case, I seem to have gone from one to the other without much thought. Everyday is LIFE. That said, suddenly one day I realized that my head space was still in one season, but my physical abilities had undergone a serious “time change” What happened?

The wonders of LIFE.

Have a good day everyone,

Wed.16th

Enjoy the moment while you wait. Things come about when they are meant to happen. think of what you can do for the time being and don’t rush the outcome..
Perfect Liberty 2020. 10

Can you see the ducks? Perfect camouflage, Sometimes in life, just because we don’t see something, it does not mean it is not there. When we practice being in the NOW … living each moment, taking our time in dealing with whatever situation comes our way… it is amazing how much clearer our situation /experience can be to us.

Today’s calendar quote is

Make the best use of Materials and Money. You can do different thigs as materials and money play their roles. How to make them work is important.

and then

Bom dia.. Good morning.. and then… another day began.. that means another night of sleep had come and gone.

Do you ever wonder where you go when you sleep? Has it ever occurred to you that your body when it’s tired simply wants to shut down… When it feels rested it will (on it’s own) wake up.. We take our bodies for granted, our heart pumping, our digestive system chugging away processing the “stuff” we ingest.. Our brains try to put order into all the information we take in during our waking hours. All this happens and we take it for granted (most of the time).

It is when something happens that we sit up and take notice. Should we be doing something different, should we me more attentive to the inner workings of our bodies? Not just deal with things when there is a hiccup in our system, or we have an accident.

I found myself trying to go to sleep. Earlier I had been yawning and very tired, but I had other things on my mind and I didn’t listen to the messages the body was sending me. Then of course, I had to wait for the body to want to sleep again. Sigh. I tried listening to music, that wasn’t working, my mind didn’t want to hear the same old, same old…. and when I looked for something different.. I heard a little voice say…. be quiet.. just let me be.’

I remembered yesterday’s prompt, and my response about Silence, I was guilty of having a noisy mind myself… keeping “busy”. I turned everything off,… wow.. silence… and then,….

Smiles.. sleep came.. and now its morning again! Good Morning!

Today’s calendar..

Respect the existence of each other. The world consists of people with different circumstances and different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other,

August 10

Good morning everyone.. some of you may have already seen this cartoon. My sister sent it to me, it resonated with me in many ways. When I told a friend about it, she remarked she had seen it already on Facebook. Of course my sister sent it to me because she is the “happy” sister with a sense of humour, and I had been moaning to her about having to cope with ongoing symptoms of the fall I had,.. How it had me home more than I liked.. and taking more naps than I wanted to.. blah blah blah…

We all at times, reflect on, or focus on something … that really,,, if we step back, and look at the positives that the change(s) has/have made… we see the world in a totally different light. That picture not only made me smile (a good happy smile) the saying ” whomever you’re important to… will look for you.” clicked and stayed with me. I hear it now repeat itself often out of the blue… It is so simple and so true. Thanks Sis!

Enjoy what happens People who can enjoy anything happening to them receive wisdom for the next step. Try to work on things without being overly concerned.

8.7 Monday

There are days when we simply don’t want to face the world, sunshine or not. We want or need time to rest, to invest in our selves. It is all part of the “maturing” process. Take life as it comes, in little steps.

“Give importance to listening, looking, thinking, doing and speaking. Look and listen carefully before making a judgement. Assumptions and hasty conclusions can lead to misunderstandings.

Today

Today, it was cold, damp and gray

what a wonderful day for a visit to the park

after all, with it being so brisk,

there would be little risk of finding a crowd

I bundled up, filling my pockets with roasted squash seeds

Didn’t take long before I made a new friend =^_^=

who couldn’t contain her happiness at her good fortune, so it wasn’t long

before I had several other chicks singing along …. two beautiful blue jays joined in, they truly made me feel like I belonged …

Dark menacing clouds soon began to push aside the sunnier skies, the wind that had been merrily drifting along beside me, began to pick up speed, nudging me back towards my car. The temperature dropped, icy chill seeped through my jacket, till I no longer felt like I wanted to stay.
