Sometimes someone elses creativity has already expressed something I was going to say, the creators of this video, while giving us a chuckle.. also made a statement..

We are all unique and have our own way of expressing and living our lives. This next clip was also a cutie I found on my FB page this morning. My friends you are so wonderful with your ingenuity and posts. (the squirrel found a nut and wanted to hide it )

now, today 8.5.15

PL# 18 – Each Moment is a Turning Point..

We walk past a door (opportunity)…. or we seize the moment.

PL # 15. All is a mirror

When we are calm we reflect that quiet serenity

I love this picture, like, WoW, these mountain goats are climbing a near vertical wall. I found it on a site, that just now when I went back to reference it again, the page was gone, or not available to me. We speak of reflection, perception, to the photographer who took this picture, I say kuddos for your patience and ability to do this capture. My musing is, in Nature, the animal does what is instinctively right, …. need to get to point X, hmmm what is the best way, oh yes, this way, and simply goes about doing it.

The mind, I can speak for mine will often prevent me from doing something, because I think about it too much.

PL Precept #1 – Life is Art

Every day, every waking moment, is a new beginning.

Spanish moss draped like a golden chandelier, some one with a creative mind and vision, got the idea, “saw it” “acted on it” et voila!

PL Precept #19 – Begin once you Perceive

If you are wondering how many Precepts we have in PL Perfect Liberty, we have 21 Precepts.

PL Precept #21 – Live in Perfect Liberty

By following the Precepts, we grow each day in all ways, to live our lives in a peaceful and meaningful way, helping others to know love, happiness, and caring friendships, creating an ambiance that will bring us to world peace.

Love is not an emotion that can come and go

if you truly love, it is forever

love is God

you / me

somethings simply are

one day, it simply happened

I looked up and there you were

obviously you had been there before

but .. somehow.. I missed seeing you there

nature has a way of reclaiming

what man has tried to take away

there is no tomorrow or yesterday

only today

one day you wake and find the floral essence of the bloom

enjoy it while it comes alive

for all too soon, the flower fades

to shrivel and begin its journey

to another space and time

no, not into the gloom

it has come, lived, and gone

no more no less

I am a tree

grow with me

calm, confident and centered

What are my 3 wishes for today. I pray that I remain, calm, confident and centered. It is not because I’m concerned or worried about the hospital procedure, but rather it is the coping with my inner disquiet when I am asked to drink something that I find totally distasteful, and it produces a physical reaction from my body that I don’t enjoy living through.

Have you seen what they are doing to watermelons in Japan? They are growing them in clear square containers, more convenient to the consumer I would guess, but that is not what nature intended of the fruit. I have gone now a long time without solid food, and truth be known except for the first couple of hours when I got hungry, I’ve not really thought much of food, since I had to deal with my diabetic self, reacting to the lack of food and the awful sickly sweet liquid they want me to force down.

Unlike the helpless fruits that are forced to grow in confined spaces, I have choices. The procedure today is a simple one, done I’m sure zillions of times on adult humans everywhere, a must in the course of our regular health check ups. So thought my body will have to endure this interruption in its daily routines, my mind, and focus will be on this New England get away. I will be calm, because I’m happier in a calm state, and I will stay centered knowing that nature is all around me. Nature will continue to provide serenity to all those who seek the freedom of God’s embrace and the blessings that are ours when we live in a state of prayer, keeping our connection to the Universe alive.. always in our hearts.

Life is God

God is Life

Centered in God, I am

Confident, and I am

Calm…

Transformation –

As an artist I really believe in expression, self-expression, and how it affects our lives, in what we do and say. This clip from youtube.com arrived in my mail this morning, and I really thought …. wow… I’d like to share this. The artist Glen Keane explains how his Christian beliefs influenced his animation of the Beast’s transformation in the movie, Beauty and the Beast.

There isn’t a day that goes by where we don’t evolve and change. Sometimes the changes are subtle, and other times they are over powering and we feel the experience down to the tips of our toes. For me I long for quiet, caring love that is beautiful and serene. Gentle expressions to and from friends and actually anyone that I meet or come across in my day. Honesty,and purity of heart.

Sometimes, I feel like I’m on the inside looking out… and other times, I’m walking in the rain, or through the sunshine, with the love of God all around me, rushing through my blood stream, I’m alive with the wonder of it all. Powerful.

Then there are the days when I can barely motivate myself to get washed up and changed into -hello world- clothes. The sun can be shining, and God with me still, but, I know I have to chill… I personally have to take a day off.. to do whatever comes my way, but not having to decide one way or another.

This is all part and parcel of everyday living, moving from one day to another. We all every single one of us, has these moments.

The journey of spiritual transformation is man-made, yup.. choices we make, chart our journey, step by step, minute by minute.

The creativity of man with Nature

I don’t think I’ll ever tire of sharing with you the ingenuity of the people in India who worked with nature to solve a problem they were having. Transformation .. following text was taken from Pinterest by techeblog.com

In the wettest place on Earth, the village of Mawsynram in Meghalaya, India are some of the most fascinating bridges you’ll ever see. These “living bridges” are formed by locals who have trained the roots of rubber trees to grow into natural bridges. They are sturdy enough to far outlast man-made wooden structure bridges. Because of the relentless rain in Meghalaya’s jungles, wooden structures would rot away. These root bridges are self-strengthening, becoming more sturdy

Faith

Would I take this journey

Yes I would …

No doubt …

No regrets …

Because I know

that God is always with me …

If I arrived at this path

I would know that it is a journey

meant for me to take …

lessons, challenges, opportunities

they are gifts, that make us who we are.

Each day is like a new canvas

I can’t wait to see what I will discover

as my adventure begins

This morning’s lesson is about, not being swayed by the past. It is what we do now, that counts. When we begin the day with a fresh outlook, We will be blessed with an adventure from begging to end.

Happy July 4th

Happy July 4th. to all of you who are having a week-end of celebrations. When we were in Upper NY State at the start of the week, we saw many preparations already being put into place. Banners and flags, it was very festive, now that the day is here, I expect there will be dazzling fireworks and a lot of get togethers. Somehow when I think of July 1st (Canada Day) and July 4th. (American Independence Day) I relate it to happy get togethers with friends and family.

If we approach everything in life with the firm belief that everything is for the best, and that the experience, or moment will be one that will provide growth and development,… what a positive it will be,

The days have been full of sunshine, although I’m told that in Texas it is also VERY hot. Holland has been going through its own heat spell. Where I am i Canada, I look out and see the cherries ripening on the tree, the birds have been flying in and out of the branches having their morning treats. Until recently the Saskatoon berries were in abundance, if you drove by you would have seen me reaching up into the tree taking my share. =^_^= Nature provides.

BLESSINGS OF THE DAY

lingering

lingering, I heard the waterfall

before I spied the lush

beauty of your curves

how mesmerizing

even tantalizing

the light on the surface

shimmered a soft golden glow

on the undulating water.

and suddenly I was totally lost

in the wonderful moment

of your hypnotic allure

this magical spell

the bliss of

pure joy

Open Up

Opportunities don’t always come and knock on the door,

Usually, they present themselves as a challenge.

Today was the church garage sale, we do one, once and sometimes twice a year

As I watched people arrive, park and saunter over to the tables, I wished I had .. more time to say Hello, Hi!, So nice that you could drop by…..

But of course, there was little time for anything but to keep putting stuff out and answering the many questions being asked by the eager early arrivals.

Church staff were kept busy, putting stuff out, or helping with things being purchased. There was a steady stream of new arrivals.
here are several reasons our church does a garage sale, and yes it is to raise money for the church… but it is also to meet the many people who drop in to visit us each year, and to get acquainted with them

What I realized today, was that the opportunity was there, but the reality was, we were not staffed to properly achieve the part about.. getting reacquainted having time to actually visit and say hello to the visitor who dropped in.

So… did we really accomplish what we set out to do? The opening our doors to say Hello and meet new people… That was/is an important part of our intended goal. Sometimes even when we are proactive, it isn’t till we actually play out the steps that we have scheduled and planned, that we are able to see the discrepancies.

hmmm time to rethink, how to “open up”

Time was

Time was…. when we all gathered to listen, learn and enjoy the experience of sharing new products, new techniques, new ideas. Then we would have time to process the information with an informal gathering around a light refreshment table…

Having worked in a large teaching hospital, I often got to speak in such rooms,lecture rooms, or auditorium. Talking to the assembled group, I could watch their faces, and body language, I often knew the ones who would be full of questions, and interested to know more. lt was fun, we all got to know more about the other person, and we could talk right then and there about what we had seen or heard.

Now I’m told that often if there are still such rooms in use, the audience is head down with technology that allows them to be miles away, even if they are sitting in the room with you. Often there is little dialogue between the group, rather questions are asked and answered online, Therefore others in the room do not benefit from the exchange.

Time was when we could help one another because as individuals we all see and think in our own unique way. Often, a different view point leads to a greater indepth understanding of a topic or situation… and in some cases, makes us even more comfortable and confident with our own decision, and chosen path.

Time was, and time is… always going to be changing. we exists today because of the past. Today in the PL churches across the world we are celebrating Ancestor’s Day. It is a time we have where through ceremony we express our gratitude for the love and virtues of our ancestors… Services on the 11th. are at 10 a.m.. We know people cannot always attend at that time of day.. closing your eyes for a moment and silently sharing our prayer, goes a long way in bringing a peaceful moment to your day. =^_^=
