silly billie me
not a tree in sight
just a little bungalow
tucked in under the snow
am I alright
to feel such delight
you’re darn right
it’s a welcome sight
when its hot hot hot
unrelenting heat for days on end
with humidity that one can’t circumvent
only please
let me have my internet
xxxoooo
Ahhh another day of sunshine, just brush off the snow =^_^=

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.

And why not?
Why do I have to wait to be flowery
only on one special day?
Golly gee,
the way I see it
is, I really care
and love you every day
truth be told, I like you too
so today and every day
I’ll do my very best
to let you know, some how, some way
in all I say and do
that you are the best ever, and like I really really mean it
when I say
I love you.

What a week-end, I feel like I’ve not stopped since Thursday. Used to having my own time, and travelling at my own speed, having to be somewhere 3x in one day, is really a learning experience. Each of the 3 places were in different parts of the city,one was even across the border in another Province. That was one day, the next day was more of the same. I like to think that I’m flexible and adaptable, but….. no….. it got done, but on both evenings I crashed early and slept 13 hours one night, and 11 the next.
Like the jaguar sleeping in the tree high above ground in the Amazon (Brazil) I was out for the count. I had no trouble falling asleep, or staying asleep. Both days were full, total focus was required on the events we attended. We could have been anywhere, somewhere, we simply were. When we are totally involved in the interactions we are focused on, the body, mind and spirit all come together, work together, and come time to shut down, take a break, its like a switch is flicked, and we are in dreamland. “out for the count”
I’m everywhere, anywhere, somewhere, and nowhere… all at the same time…. It is time to chill and zone out…..
See you soon, I’ll think of you
maybe I’ll even see you
where ever that some where will be
I’ll be loving you.

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

original verse,Q
When in life we begin to grow
We are taught by our parents,
by teachers, and by the life around us
There are some things that we
really take to, that captures our
imagination, so we apply ourselves
and we work hard to accomplish
what our heart desires.
Our passion comes from within
If we are in the right groove
we study, we learn, and we find
and cultivate friends along the way
who share our interests
If there is a connection, wow
there is such an intense joy in the sharing
in the way we move, the way we think
and how we experience each other.
It is hard to know at times
where one begins and where one ends.
Although we are often on our own,
the reality is that in life, the natural energies,
or elements, require a positive and a negative
to reach a ONENESS
If we over water, plants will drown
too much sun and dry soil, will cause a drought
love is an emotion,
emotion has a range of expressions
Life is Art. .. PL Precept #1
When dancers perform, we don’t see the work, sweat,tears, pain that they endured during their practices, workouts, and personal battles they fought for us to see the final product. Their dedication to their craft, is what enables us to enjoy a breathtaking performance. Even the work that went into taking the pictures I have used in this blog, the time the photographer took, the patience to get just the right angle, that exact moment to click the shutter.
There is complexity in all that happens. We tend to only see the surface. Life is an art form, and we, each and every one of us, is a piece of the puzzle in the whole of this wonderful, exhilarating experience called living….
Each and every time we share time with each other.. I for sure, am enriched. Thank you.

– Whether we are happy or not depends on our own perspective. Life is neither good or bad, it is how we perceive the moment, that will determine whether the outcome is a good or an unfortunate one. -Live a life in Perfect Liberty, and every day will be a brand new canvas….

Remember the little nursery rhyme
now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep….
Do remember when the talk was all about astral travel
and philosophers talked on about where our minds went during sleep..
… too academic for me…=^_^=
— basic A B C’s for me….
There was a time I would not have ever allowed a dog on my bed
never mind, on the sheets or sleeping beside me..
Time and circumstances have changed that
I now understand and feel things I didn’t before
What I have learned in life
that friendships that last
are the friendships with a past
The Mother who lovingly took these pictures
over a period of time
will always the remember these moments
and even though young, the child
will grow up feeling an unspoken bond
for animals
In sleep mode we are vulnerable to the world around us
yet there is cosmic connection to what is happening
Sometimes we unconsciously know that the world around us
is not balanced, and sleep is slow to happen
Even changing rooms will not help, because the unrest
is within you.
No matter where you go, or run, there you will be…..
the bond of sharing is a delicate one
there has to be mutual trust
and the security that comes of faith
in the connection of souls
born of innocence
and a genuine love
not built on egos, preconceived ideas,,
words, promises, just unspoken
heart-felt caring
sharing
that transcends time
and mortal boundaries…
Being able to listen and care
for what a friend is saying
or doing
to walk in silence
content to know that
you are both aware of each other
but need not talk
the being together is enough
that is an awesome
inspiring connection
appreciate such moments
for they are rare
and like a diamond in the rough
the connection is felt
not seen
friendships that last
are friendships
that can stand the
test of time
for they were
born
in another
time.
My love to each and
every one of you…
now and always…

Q
You never realize the value of a kind compassionate hug, until you have received on, Sometimes we forget that in some societies a show of affection, or a hug is not something that is done. I’m sure you all know or have known people in your lives who simply don’t hug, or show any kind of outward affection.
Lately there have been groups that form so that they can experience a hug, or what is it I heard and saw on the telly the other month, you could hire someone to hug you. Oh yes, and I was told by a reliable source, that men (sorry don’t know about women) can hire someone to be their girlfriend for an hour or two, where they can just be physically intimate, holding hands, hugging (and being a grown up, should that lead to something else…) What has caught my interest in all of this is that with all that is happening, we can put someone on the moon, we develop technology that can have us talking to people in foreign lands, with just a click of a button. But we still don’t know what a hug is all about.
Remember the “air kiss”… ah, allo, bonjour… kiss, kiss… sometimes one side of the face, sometimes both… and many times it is a real sign of affection and happiness at meeting a friend. However, with anything that is done repetitiously it then becomes a habit and the kisses are given from a mile away (ok slight exaggeration )
Not everyone is comfortable with being hugged, or having someone up close and too personal. Sometimes being there, sharing a coffee, listening and simply being a good listener, with true compassion and love in your heart is enough.
Not everyone is blessed with having grown up in an environment or with people who show their love in a way that includes a warm embrace and a loving hug.
Shared laughter, and a hug that is purely one of love and friendship is a gift that only can be given from the heart. It is when we are truly in the moment and can freely respond to another’s smile, need, or presence that the joy of the moment can be felt.
You are never alone
Always I am with you in spirit
and should you doubt
you need only look out
at the evening stars,
their twinkle is my code to you
happily saying I love you in a thousand ways
or the morning sun and feel my touch
as a breeze gently tousles your hair
or sunbeams kisses your cheek
I am in the air your breath
for I am everywhere
now and always

High above the clouds
a castle sat, built of stone and made to last
when perched on a chair by a window
we could look out and see forever….
Looking down we saw the town around
and people going about their daily lives
me, sometimes you, and even we two
could sit for hours and enjoy the view
But what was there for us to do
when not with you, I sat alone
sitting, staring, but not sharing
Are the people below any different
as the go about, do they look up and wonder
what we are doing up here high in the sky
In my cottage by the sea
the coming home is always such s joy
we seem our home. nestled there,
with the water, hills and valleys
as for as the eye can see
We get to hear the water grumble when it storms
and see the clouds roll in to turn the sky
from blue to gray
Our time is measured by the natural
flow of morning light to end of day.
We know we are not alone,
we see the cars drive by
even the odd hiker will stop to say “hi..”
Yet, we often wonder,
would life be different if we were not by the sea…
Guess what… we all need food to nourish our bodies, and each and every one of us, has our own food preferences. The same applies to our spiritual needs, we are all wanting to find, love, peace, and tranquility in our days/nights. We each need to travel our own paths to towards this goal. But what is the common in thread in all of us, big, small, tall, short, whatever, is the love we give ourselves.
