Q 1.11.14_006

 

When the world lacks colour, we have to find our own.  

Q 1.11.14_005

 

When skies are gray with clouds, rediscover your home – When it is too cold and the outside landscape seems frozen and unwelcoming, snuggle in at home.  Home can be anywhere, find a chair, close your eyes, connect with God and you are HOME.

Dec. 31_004

Is the partying all done?  You ready now to hit the slops and exercise?

Dec. 16 Mount Waffle_001

The turkey has been eaten, the desserts have been happily devoured … now you know its time to decide.

Dec.21.am_001

Which road to take.  It is a brand new year, let’s set higher goals and work to improve ourselves.  The Joy of Expression is in the Process. When each day is a new canvas, goals are much easier to attain.

Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm

PL lesson for yesterday was – Act with Enthusiasm – it was something I just couldn’t get enthusiastic about, until I read further, “If you put your whole heart into whatever you do, you will be able to appreciate any task at hand.”
Hmmm – yup I could do that, my objective for the day was to do as little as possible, In the afternoon I actually took a lie down, not to sleep, but to do nothing..
I did doze, but with no telly, no phone,no PC, no radio, I soon drifted into what my mother used to call “daydreaming”
It was nice.
It was rewarding, it was calming and peaceful.
My body rested, and best of all my mind had a holiday away from news,weather and sports. If you get my drift.
My lesson yesterday. enthusiasm = being in the moment and doing it whole-heartedly =^_^=

LOL – I looked at today’s lesson, ‘Just be Yourself”  that’s me…. easy peasy.  What are your plans for today?  Are you making time for yourself during this busy time of the year?           LIFE IS ART.

World of wonder

World of Snow

Sometimes, we have to really look to see something.

When we do take the time to be present in our surroundings, we are often blessed with a deeper understanding of the moment we are living.

la foret des soupirs

la foret des soupirs

Adult – very inviting landscaping. You know I’m always drawn to the little cottage off in the distance. =^_^=’ http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hot%20Bodies/199/243/22

The Xmas tree has been put out, but there is no snow yet, the water is clear and inviting, the mountain off in the distance speaks of worlds to conquer, yet here on the deck, the birds and crickets sings, all is peaceful.

nov.26_002In the background I hear the voice of Edith Piaff singing songs from a long ago time.  It is very tranquil here.  I may stay and visit awhile.  The outside world is so busy, everyone is in a hurry.  The radio must be on in that little chalet I saw,  it was, the room in the chalet is a little oasis of comfort and charm.  I left the SL(Second Life) to  attend to every day errands, when I returned this evening, there was a couple happily  enjoying the sharing possibilities  provided in the cabin.  I left =^_^=   3 is company.

nov.26_004When we venture down paths we’ve not traveled before, we are more likely to encounter new experiences, and new people. In this build I discovered a world that is very sensuous, the designer has applied her skills to recreating a place that is inviting.  Her woodlands, home and furnishings are brought together in a piece of virtual art that is pleasing to the senses.

I bring this approach to my adventures in life, Life is Art,(PL, Precept #1) how we interact with the tools and canvas provided will influence the outcome of our day and lives.  Choose to use words and gestures that are kind, polite and courteous.  In this way, we help shape our day in a very positive way.

PL Precept #15, All is a Mirror   to recreate an environment such as the one visited today, the builder has to have lived, or experienced the “virtual world” they wished to share with visitors.  The site is group owned, it was founded by Leesha Azara (Pearl.solano)

PL Precept #18   Each moment is a Turning Point  I love this Precept, it is so positive and gives such hope.  Think about it, it is NOW, EACH moment is a Turning Point.!

Living in Perfect Liberty is so amazing.  Blessings everyone

Winter scene

Winter scene

Have you been overdoing things lately, convinced that you have to get everything done now.
Relax and take a moment to breathe….
Actually take more than a moment….
Enjoy the sunshine, enjoy the day that was presented to you.
Express gratitude in your prayers.
Strive to do things for the sake of others, pray for their happiness as well.

God = love

Londinium Gearworks and Lil Verse

Londinium Gearworks and Lil Verse

Everyone can dream. This wonderful place in SL (Second Life) is a delight to explore. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/PARP/165/127/45
Sometimes in life we need to slip away from the challenges in RL (Real world) and allow our creativity to recharge.  Oh OH, caught Q trying to sneak up to the ice cream vendor.  Here one can indulge and not have repercussion (blood sugar levels) =^_^=

nov.15_008There are hobbit buildings where Tabitha showcases, her wonderful Victorian furniture and outfits.  There are a ton of places to explore, and if like me you like to take photographs, there is a wide variety of interesting places to capture on disk.  You get to try out different environment settings. Virtual photography like anything else,takes some adjusting to, but once you get the  hang of it, results are rewarding.  This thought process applies to how we live our lives too!  When we cheat, sneak a “shouldn’t have” it is our bodies that suffer, it is  me.I. self. that pays the price.  Choices. My inner voice is always right, I have to learn to trust it more, listen carefully to what I’m hearing, not hear what I want to hear.  There is a difference.

nov.15_003

In Pl we are encouraged to stay in tune with the times.  Virtual worlds are here and have been now for awhile.  In world, we  get to meet people from all over the world.  We can socialize, or explore on our own,  there is no escaping that the experience of being in a virtual world broadens our  horizons.  If you are yourself creative, the possibilities are endless.

Did you know that there is a small building in Second Life dedicated to the study and practice of /on the philosophy of Perfect Liberty?  If ever you wanted to meet with one of the ministers, you can do so in Second Life. =^_^=  Today I am going to move the church to another building.  Once I’m done doing that, I will post the new location for you.

Rev. Goto the minister in New York for the Church of Perfect Liberty, sent out his newsletter recently.  In it, he said “PL teachings don’t exist in a far away world, but in the daily movements of our lives”   That quote he used, really resonated with me. I so truly believe that God is with us in everything we do.  I have found SL to be a wonderful learning tool, I have found and learned some profound lessons through being a member of this virtual world.  When we are open to life and its lessons, we are blessed with the experience and wonder of the journey.

“You have a built in yearning to seek your inspired self and feel wholeness, a kind of inexplicable sense that patiently demands recognition and action.  You might describe it as a mechanism persistently projecting the words, destiny,mission, or purpose on your inner screen. ” Dr. Wayne W. Dyer  

“Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old ”  Franz Kafka

Whatever you do today, do it mindfully, be present 100%. LOVE God/Tao with all your heart and soul/mind. Mark 12:30 NIV

Blessings, today and always.  Be Happy, SMILEGood Saturday Morning everyone!

Diabetic in denial

Diabetic in denial

I am a diabetic, I have known now for maybe 8 – 10 years. Yet not until today, did I get good instruction and educational information on what being diabetic means.
Knowing something, and acceptance are two different things.

I met with a certified diabetes educator and the pharmacist where I get my prescriptions filled. Both took the time, to go over with me what diabetes can do to a body over time, and what the medications are that help control symptoms and hopefully work so that the “patient” can live a balanced and healthy life.

I had asked for a consultation with the minister at church, and at that time I asked for a Mioshie.( Available to members this is a special request that is sent to Japan, where it is then prayed and focused on by special trained ministers. When the response comes back, it is given to you via the minister at the church, left with you to meditate and pray on the suggested lessons. Then there is further consultation with the minister to help you work through what will help ou to improve you situation.)  For more exact definition of what Mioshie is, we can have Rev. Eugene  explain it further?

My head is reeling with all the information that came at me today, one of the visual demonstrations of what is happening to my blood when my sugar levels are high, left no doubt in my mind that I would have to go back on the medication(s).  I have to go back to zero, and start with a lower dose of the one drug.  The others I will hold off on, till I see how this one drug does.  I don’t want the headaches back.  I took 1/2 a tablet at 4:30 pm and now at 6:50 pm, I’ve got a whopper of a headache.  So, down go 2 Tylenol, the stress of thinking of the start of another drug infestation is sending me running  for cover.  sigh.

Time to retreat – lay back – and allow my inner self to assimilate  the information I learned today.  I will try to “let go” and allow the voice of “divine wisdom” to filter through my human reaction to all of this.  Let go, Let GOD

Good morning everyone!

Good morning everyone!

We all see things so differently. When I stepped outside after dinner to my delight I found snow on the deck. The first snow is always so pretty, everything looks like its been sugar coated. =^_^=

“my grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness” – 11 Corinthians 12:9

Appreciate the gifts you have in life,…
I could see and enjoy the first flakes of snow, and the pretty picture they made for me to enjoy. My Mother who is legally blind, can no longer appreciate seeing the snow, but when told that it has happened, she can relive the memory from her earlier days.
Remember to share your gifts – Try not to squander what can be life’s greatest treasures, don’t take for granted your God given talents.

Reach out. Step outside the box. Tell someone you care. You are beautiful,, smile and bring sunshine into your world today. It all begins with YOU.

God Bless and keep you safe…..

What will be will be

No matter how well we prepare, the Universe sometimes makes decisions for us, with the modern technology, a button is hit, and zap, instantly your message has been sent to recipients.  The blog you just received, was not the final draft, all the changes I so painstakingly made were for naught the Divine Mother chose the earlier version. So dear readers, I bid you a goodnight and will head for dreamland…There is a lesson here, =^_^= I’ll sleep on it.. Tomorrow will be a new beginning.
