Its a lazy day, hot and hazy. Weather warnings began showing up before 5 a.m. It is going to be a scorcher.
Work well with everyone regardless of t heir age or position. The opinions of those who are younger may lead to new solutions, and we can always learn from the accumulated experiences of our elders

Be Big Hearted. In fact, what you are concerned about might be something you don’t need to be concerned about. Interact with people without worrying too much.

When doing something, choose to do it with joy and enthusiasm.

Cherish this moment, this time, this day. People keep growing as time goes on. Cherish your self expressions.

I wandered aimlessly for awhile
a smile, plastered on my face
there was no place to hide
then just beyond as I turned the corner
I spied the bridge, that would take me to the other side
the dappled shade, the quiet reflection in the water
suddenly I felt alive again
my smile broadened, my eyes sparkled
I was not on my own, soon I would be home
once more, I am reminded, I am never alone
I have within me, all the ingredients for success
life is a pathway of stepping stones
trust and believe in the power of Nature
learn from every experience
my smile is now from the heart
thank you for sharing this moment with me
in the infinity of life, I now feel whole and complete
Trust the intelligence within you to lead you and guide you
Today is a brand new day!

Photographs of Japan as seen by a young man (Lucas) who is ticking off an item on his bucket list. He is touring Japan, and sending back pictures to his Mother who has with his consent sent them on to me, with permission to share them with you. When I opened up my e-mail and saw the pictures I was immediately taken back there, how I miss the tranquility and beauty I found there. I try not to remember the food, but it is hard to do, I ate so well when I was there.
Japan when you visit, is what you see in the pictures, There are pockets of serenity everywhere.
Today’s calendar-
Get things started with grit. If you work on things in daily life with the attitude of “let’s do it!” you will feel a power to accomplish things. People around you will rely on you.

OK.. sigh.. deep breath… I’ve done my mini rant for help. There has to be a domestic goddess out there.. or magic merlin.. I don’t care… please.. what does one do to have a load of dry clothes without the knotted horrors I keep getting.
ahhh.. ok.. on with the day. Have a great Tuesday everyone.
Our imagination can take us many places. I have always loved wandering through various artistic expressions, places with new shapes, colours .. places that have been imagined or created by other artists. Where fantasy and reality meet in a way that gives the viewer their own “moment in time” thanks to someone else’s talent at creating visuals that would not be experienced otherwise.( Second life, a interactive “game” created and run by Linden Labs in California.)
Today so much of our input from regular media, is about wars, disagreements, disputes, strikes, neighbour against neighbour.. it is really a pleasure being able to spend time in an adult world that is full of creativity, music and yes social interactions that are .. sometimes nonsense, word games, good old fashioned card games, (I love a game that is played with dice, much like Yahtzee) Best of all .. there are people I’ve met from all over the world that share the joy of visiting a virtual world and the delights we find there.
I am not saying for a moment, that there are not people who love to create war games, and replay themes that are on the violent side.. but life is life and each and everyone of us, has our own way of thinking and doing things. Like in the real world, you can pick and chose your friends and places you go.
In all of this.. imagination is the key… in expressing our creativity ,.. imagination is the driving force .. in all we do.. ie how did you dream up that wonderful recipe, or come up with the idea to write a song, book, poem….. let your imagination flow free, express yourself with the ingenuity and creativity in you… let it out, let it grow.
Develop new ideas through your imagination – softly and flexibly. If you could find a way to add a twist, you will have more joy.

There are days when the world seems to be a rather bleak and uninspiring place to be, we wander and tho’ we go about our daily activities.. somehow …. we simply don’t feel connected.
That is when we turn a page, and find a place that speaks to the “want” in you. Whether that be fantasy, a good book, a visit to room with a different view…. we have a lot of choices these days. It is up to you.
Smiles are the world’s treasure. If you smile more, there will be more smiles in the World. Be one of those who makes more smiles..

Smile… share your beauty/sunshine… with the world. Be Happy!
Time. How one person’s cast away becomes a piece of art for someone else. I was taken with this bike, but at this time of my life, I am not collecting, I am decluttering .. If you use Facebook, you probably get their incoming mail .. wanting you to see or remember what you have posted in the past. I do use Facebook to connect with friends overseas .. but I am not a FB regular. That said, the other day, I got a message asking me if I wanted to see .. pictures I had taken over the past year(s).. they titled it Woods. Curious I clicked on it and was taken down memory lane, of places I had been and moments I had captured. I am going to try to share this with you. https://photos.app.goo.gl/yDJFpr4dsYn1aA6g8
Always have presence of mind. If you overexert yourself, you will get easily swayed by emotion. Always put the best Makoto with presence of mind.

a quote from Mahatma Gandhi
“A ‘No” uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a “yes” merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble”
I wish you all a day of peace and tranquility, even this world where chaos abounds, you need only close your eyes and take a mini vacation.. if you were able to visit the Woods, (link from above) perhaps one of the pictures reminded you of a moment in time when you felt the JOY of NATURE.
We are all ONE. Oyashikiri
