No two doors are the same, no two people are the same, YET

Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest, and start your day with excitement, (PL2023.22)

Everyday, we walk by doors and never see them. How many times have you walked by someone and not even been aware you’d done so… or … you see people all around you YET…. you cannot recognize or identify anyone you just passed. We have become so used to having “busy” around us, that we “tune out” and often are so wrapped up in our own thoughts.. we miss “the” moment.

The picture bottom left, When I first saw it, I was captured by the closed door and the open entrance right beside it. on closer inspection, I saw that they had different house numbers. Right away, I thought, “which entrance would I want to explore?” Do you have a preference?

I have learned over the years… to never judge a book by its cover.… what doorway would inspire a story from you today?

Two of my special dolls… waiting around for me to decide what to do with them .. where to put them.

I no longer have all my “dolls” I’ve adopted them out over the last couple of years, … you have all heard me say, the only constant in life is change… this morning, Quincy was very patient, he didn’t start yowling at me till he heard me stirring, However, I am learning he is very insistent, I was late getting up… its only 57 degrees here this morning.. nice change… I was enjoying being lazy. He had other ideas.

He was looking for his breakfast. I had walked into the kitchen a few times, and he was right there at my heels… however, I realized I wanted my cell phone.. and turned to go back for it.. he grabbed my leg and held on????? What is this behavior. I know its been awhile since I’ve lived with a cat.. but really!

Today is the start of a new week! A friend and photographer from the church will be travelling to France in a week or so. He’ll be gone for 5 weeks, and will be taking pictures of doors and windows.. two of my fav. subjects. I have lots of windows myself. do any of you know if there is a weekly feature of/on windows, like we have on doors??

Today is a brand new day. Let’s do our best to put our Makoto (sincerity) into all we do

listening

Friends are visiting overseas. Nick knows my love of doors and interesting architecture, he sent this along yesterday. Today with the pouring rain and dull overcast sky … I looked at the window and felt a longing to linger … let the sounds of the far away city and the ambience carry me away … Ever wonder what it would be like to drift silently along, passing open windows … hearing snitches of conversation float past you… it would be nice to just let the mind wander and rest on a thought here and there, not focus on anything but ” being present” to whatever vibrations/energy comes your way.

With so many of us dealing with a multiple myriad of “possibilities” every day… taking a breather is so important. I overheard two people talking the other day about their pending holiday. “it will great, we leave at X time, then IF our connections work out, we will travel approximately another 10 hours, before landing in XX and from there we shuttle for another hour… ” I found myself shaking my head and thinking… so much time in transit… I hoped that after all of that, they would have allotted plenty of time for chilling before making that same journey back.

It is wonderful that we can now get to almost any corner of the globe. But no one has yet been able to convince me that cramming thousands of miles in a short period of time is “restful”… especially when often times we have only a limited amount of time to be on “holiday”. Guess I’ll be an arm chair traveller for some time… I love hearing about the travel exploits of friends, but for now.. I will let them stand in lines, go through customs run for connections, sleep in strange beds, rush from one tourist attraction to another. Yep… I’m in another “zone”.

Others are others, and I am I. If you force your values about anything on others, it can be self righteous. Don’t be overeager and have a sense of “others are others. I am I”
Perfect Liberty 2023.13 (English translation done in Japan)

Let’s look at and listen to others with an open mind. your judgment becomes clouded when you look t a situation or person with preconceived notions. Observe them for what they actually are.

Thursday doors 7.14.16

Windows and doors. always fascinate, a glimpse, a peek, sometimes it is the door itself that holds our attention.

There is always a hint of mystery, when I see a door that interest me. I want to peer inside, better yet, I want to step over the threshold and go inside.

I always knew that behind a door would be something new. No matter how many times I would push open the door, another “happening” would occur.

I will be exploring new dimensions of time in Japan while I am away. I hope to have more to share with you on my return. I may or may not get time to post over the next weeks, so know this. I am going to miss you, each and every one of you who share my world.

may God keep you safe, happy and healthy

may each new day bring joys for you to enjoy

Till soon, I love YOU
