Spring

A walk of discovery in the rain the other day. I love the quiet at this time of year, the awakening of the forest floor… the miniature ponds where winter snows have not yet evaporated. The falling rain plops into the standing water, creating beautiful little waves that dance and make merry… New growth hungrily soaks it up. I walked the old road towards the research station…. saw the sign that intrigued me when I first started to explore the area…

It is hard to imagine that this was once a thriving country road, with a tree farms, and other country homes. A speed limit of 60 mph or was it after the metric system came to Canada. ? . Change, the only constant in life!

For those celebrating a holiday week-end… may Peace and Glad tidings warm your hearth this cool misty spring morning.

We are each and everyone of us, “different”… we have our way of thinking and our own lifestyles. That is what makes life interesting. (PL2020.20)

Spring

Took a walk down that road you see on the right, it is blocked to traffic only vehicles are the researchers when they come to the bog… and head for the research buildings to check their equipment. Rain was forecast, but you can see where I was… the skies were still blue.

Middle picture was taken at Lime kiln “park”… this is a long trail that starts off at one end of the city and goes a long way across land, you can hike right through to a different parking area.

The picture on the left, you would have seen versions of it last spring and the spring before that, I love that little stretch of woodland… in the spring the ground is soaked with ground water and melting snow.

The pictures are silent, but believe me the whole time I am out, the birds are singing up a storm and flying overhead. In a short time, the outdoors will be a challenge if you are not one who likes being attacked by flying insects/mosquitoes … for people with allergies, the pollen and the mould spores… are irritating – but – aside from that… there is anticipation in the air.. Its exhilarating

Be creative in your efforts.. If something is not going well, take a step back and look at how you are taking the problem. there is sure to be something you can improve on.

Make today a “give back day”

We can live our daily lives owing to our ancestors, our elders, and the work of our predecessors. Above all kindness for others is the best way to give back.

Pileated

Pileated Woodpecker .. got to spend a quick moment with one yesterday morning. We startled each other, altho’ he/she was greeting me with a knock, knock, knock inches away from me. We came face to face (he/she was at my face level)

Male on the left – female on the right. I will post a link at the end of this post if you want to know more about this beautiful bird. It is about the size of a crow. (they mate for life)

A single moment is a life time

Be grateful for everything. If you see everything as material to express gratitude, you can encounter a number of opportunities to be grateful for.

to day

I lived a lifetime

Pictures tell stories, yesterday, I took pictures.. the captions told of the energy around me. I named the file,

One with Nature..

The energy of the water cascading down over the rocks and cliffs

The quiet joy of being part of the world around me

No matter where I go, where I am, you are there with me.

Always you fill me with the balm of a love so pure and energizing, I know no other, but ONE.

Rejoicing in an early spring day. Soon, only a few months away! Trees will be sprouting their greenery again, and the cold and snow will be but a memory. Meanwhile, if you live here .. you can put on your skates and skate on the longest skating rink supposedly in the world. (The Rideau Canal)

There is always an adventure waiting, it is up to us to decide which “Path” we will take.

You are the result of your daily efforts

Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through.
