PL Principle #2

Good Morning everyone..  How are you on this lovely Saturday… Each day when I wake before I start my day, I like to read the PL lesson of the day, and after prayer and reflection, let my mind wander to what my personal meditation should be. Today I found that of the 21 Principles in PL, ,my mind’s eye caught #2.. and this is where it stopped    PL Principle 2  reads – I will not have complaints about others, matters, nor the weather.  Rather I will always be creative and will look for short comings in my own thinking and actions.  a9395a7285c43a211e4ec647f8727819

The lesson for those of you who have not read it today, or do not have the calendar itself, is about valuing those who are nearest and dearest to us.  They are so close to us, that often we forget just how wonderful and special they are to us.  We may even take for granted the love and caring they bring into our lives (smiles) My life is very blessed with a caring,understanding  husband who is a real partner in life, and friends that I treasure for the many wonderful memories and the genuine caring they have shown to me over the years.  Some friends we seldom see, yet we visit often in our hearts, and when we meet it is if we have never been apart.  I saw on FB (Facebook) the other day, that one friend had renovated her cottage this past summer.  It brought memories of all the trials and challenges she faced during the first years she and her husband bought the cottage.  What lovely memories. (mental note to self)  Call Sue =^_^=

Not all memories are fantastic, but all of them were of value in my personal development, in my “growing pains”.  It is not only our physical bodies that “age”but our mental /spiritual selves.  When we remember to value and respect one another, life takes on a more positive energy.  Oyashikiri

Happy Monday the 30th. September

Happy Monday the 30th. September

Well dear reader, today is the day, tomorrow will be October 1. October is the first day of a month of bewitching crafts,art pieces,ATCs,fun with my paper and embellishment supplies, all month I get to play. Of course it wasn’t always this way, at one time I had a 9-5 commitment that took time away from doing fun things,like draw witches and goblins, graveyards and bats, decorate envelopes before sending out a greeting to a fellow artist and friend.
We are never too old to express ourselves with markers and stickers. Wish we had dollar stores in the bygone years.

PL Precept #1…Life is Art

If you are an artist, or craft person, writer,architect,parent,cook, housekeeper, it doesn’t really matter what we do that fills our world with “fun”, we find a way to get what we want to do done.

In life,in all situations, I try to apply the same attention and attitude to all challenges and detours I find in my path.

When the enthusiasm is there even if not a “perfect: day, it is a “worthwhile” day, I live and learn. we are asked to Listen with our hearts and minds to those around us, to give them our full attention. I’ve had to learn to do that for myself as well.

Some days I just have to retreat, and have a “me” day. What was the expression used at work,”a wellness day”. The fall for me is a time to come alive, I know to many it is spring that does it for them, me… give me a fall day anytime.

Fall is when we get to do fun things for the N. American Halloween, and the start of the gift making for the holidays.
The Canadian Thanksgiving and the American one are on different days. And of course in PL we celebrate EVERY MONTH!

Enjoy today everyone, do something special for yourself or a loved one. Think ahead to the delightful crisp fresh rejuvenating days of October. Don’t groan, as they say in the egg business, Get Cracking!

Blessings to each and everyone one of you on this happy happy morning.
