what I saw yesterday
has no meaning for me
today
such is life
what was previously
is not in our
now
still it did happen
the memory is
there if it
was captured
but other
memories
come and go
leaving
barely an impression
and yet
sometimes
then and now
come together at the
same time
like

Garage Sale
Good morning everyone, today is a church day, the sale is this week-end, therefore there is a lot of setting up to do to be prepared. If you live anywhere in the area, please pass this information along, The garage sale will be in the parking lot and the Boutique sale will be in the lower level of the church. We have lots of “treasures” and “goodies” for you to discover. This year, we have handmade one of a kind greeting cards that we are excited about. Affordable and fun. Lots of retro and diva jewelry, rings, necklaces, earrings, accessorize you look, you will have lots to choose from.
Yesterday’s visit to Montreal was very successful, as you know I’m working on Holiday cars for a group that gives crafted cards to shut ins, and seniors without families. To be ready for the holiday months, artist and crafters have begun working already on their projects.

chop suey Friday
When we journey beyond our day-to-day, we come across forgotten places, faded dreams of a yester-year. There are such places, that I can acknowledge and let pass. Two ships in the night. Other places shout out to me, calling for my attention. So we stop and I survey the land, the energy and “vibe” of the place. What is it that makes one location stand out from another.
Same stop, different camera angle. Maybe seconds have passed, maybe it was more like a few minutes. But in the fraction of time my gaze and attention was diverted. The light, the view was different. So it is in life. When first a challenge faces us, if we listen and take in what it is we are dealing with, our response and reaction will vary. If you are two people, arriving at the same time, seeing the same thing, neither of you, will see it the same way, sometimes close, and other times..totally different.
That is why communication, conversation is so important, if there is dialogue between two people, even between two energies, there is compatibility or there isn’t. To be a good communicator, listening has to be one of your most used tools.
The place may seem empty, but…………. the reality is ………………………..it is alive with memories.

Wordless Wednesday =sunshine yellows and….
So pretty, so bright, little dandelion
you are the Bee’s delight
no matter where you grow,
your golden glow
will beckon
and of course, euphorbia polychroma
the dense tuft of surprisingly green leaves
and lovely bright yellow bracts
reaching for the skies
the magnolia tree is preparing to shine
in a day or two
these delicate fuchsia buds will open
the deep defined leaves of the ivy
have started their climb
soon the buddha will be covered
not smothered,
but dressed in a living cloak or vest
next to the corkscrew hazel
this Amur maple has
started to protest the long winter
and is showing her strong desire
to break free and thrive again
all around
new growth abounds
the ground has come alive
and so my dears, have I
for like the seasons
each day is a new beginning
as the bees stir and begin their quests
the delicious dandelions
awaits their visit
Yay another day has begun
Happy Wednesday everyone!

PL Precept # 12 Everything has a way according to its name
lost? or found?
a glove got lost
that glove was found
and left to wait
should it be returned to its mate
some other day
meanwhile there it sits
out of harms way
a solitary reminder
that in some cases
it’s not that we don’t care
that we are no longer there
but life got in the way
too busy with other things
we missed realizing
that a part of us
fell away
& got left behind
this happens
when we are not
in tune with our mind
and
caught by surprise
when we find
that
one of two
is gone
leaving only
one
incomplete
For to be a perfect ONE ( pair)
it takes
2 to be 1
Yesterday was a day of sun and cloud, being a work day, this boat launch area was quiet, in the summer months when we dive by, it would be difficult to even find a place to park. We stopped here to let the dogs have some outdoor fun.
This was the colour of the day, yes sunshine is nice, but I love the rather subdued and subtle shades of an over cast day, if every day was sunny, we wouldn’t get to see the full palette of Mother’s Nature’s diverse and endless inventory of wonders.
Here is another Found? or Lost? for you….
While visiting a Tim Hortons (on the American side of the border, I came across the above dime and penny, laid out just as you see them … I didn’t touch them.. I looked and found it interesting that someone would just leave them on the vanity, especially sitting there so neatly. Were they in hand, and just laid down while hands were being washed… Maybe a child had them, and left them when they were being tended to by a parent.. I didn’t know… but I wasn’t going to disturb them, so, I took a picture.
Life is interesting, fun and intriguing, how we accept our daily challenges and adventures is up to us.. Accepting, enjoying and letting go of moments.. is a life long challenge, sometimes it is easy sometimes it is not…. knowing that whatever it is, it is OUR life. Yours and mine… I’m just so happy knowing that you are part of my world, In loving, sharing, caring, the exchange of ideas, thoughts,sights and sounds,.. WOW… what gifts.

PL Precept # 2 To live is to express ONE’s Self
FREE
Creativity begins with an idea, then someone sets out to put the design to paper, from there, they “play” at making it work, how many times, and what number of templates were done before they got the finished product they wanted. We see the final product, and go… WOW…. Our lives are constantly being blessed because someone came up with an idea, and by themselves or with collaboration, they developed the idea into a product, idea, or service.
Please visit the blog site Next to Nicx web site for details on how to do this, and more
In PL (Perfect Liberty) the first Precept. PL Precept #1 Life is Art, is really the foundation of the philosophy we teach and practice. Begin today and everyday, with a brand new canvas, it will make your daily choices so much more interesting.
This is a YouTube clip that will keep you inspired
There was a time when we would say “everything worthwhile in life is FREE” By this we meant, LOVE, Happiness, Sharing, Giving,Caring, a Hug, and so on. Time spent with a friend was such a blessing and a special time… It was being with that person, and giving a personal, hand-made gift meant time thinking of your friend, while you made up or wrote them a letter or a note card. There was personal interaction, and exchanges.
Life does get busy, but that special connection, a personal word or visit, goes a long way in making for a stronger bond, or sense of awareness in the other person’s world. When we reach out and share with a friend, even a stranger, we are rewarded 100 fold.
Yes, I love a beautiful object, and I admire the work, the skill of the crafts person who did it. I appreciate its beauty, and sometimes I even want to acquire that object. But the greatest gift of all for me is the sincerity, and genuine love that shines in my life. Life is LOVE. Love abounds all around us. BE ONE with GOD, share your love, reach out and bring light and joy to someone today!

Tuesday,sunshine and glue
Guess who went to bed and didn’t plug her cell phone in to recharge, first two guesses don’t count. Usually no big deal, however, in an efficient mode these past months, I’ve been doing a tidy up. You know how we can get when the season is changing, especially from winter to spring. “We never use our land line” said I. let’s get rid of it, we both have a cell phone, that will work out just fine.
Good idea, right.. the hands free phones stationed all over the house for ease of access, went bye-bye. I admit there was a feeling of relief as one more item on my want to do list, got a tick mark beside it. For every action there is a reaction. I had my cell phone number changed to the main home phone number, so that worked out fine, more or less. Calls I got for “the husband” simply were rerouted to his number. BUT what happens then when our phones are not nearby, and we don’t hear them ring (ah HA! I got a blue tooth thingie, and I can answer mine from most parts of the house as long as the phone is within “striking” distance ,1,2,ever 3 rooms away .. NOT if you are not wearing the bluetooth
Or if you are busy working on some project, like making greeting cards for the Church sale coming up in June (18th) and you are working with a sticky glue, that sticks to you, but not the card stock!!! The handy hands free that used to be by the desk is gone, your phone is in need of a change, and your blue tooth gadget is ??? somewhere on your other desk in the clutter there.
That golden moment when you remember, your new set up, the cell phone has call answer and voice mail, YAY, so what your fingers and hands are full of sticky glue, you phone will take a message. All I need do, is find Hubby to get the SSS (Skin so Soft- Avon) great for taking away sticky stuff .. I’m sure somewhere there will be a website that will tell you of all it is claimed to be good for. For us, it’s getting the glue/sticky off.
The start of a brand new day
open the window wide
take in all that comes your way
for only today
will you live the golden moments
for tomorrow, they will
have flown away.
