Greetings ,
Woke this morning to a deck covered with hail pellets.. Enough to create a very slippery situation... and my furry little ones were not overly pleased.. They will learn nothing is promised for me or them and winter will deliver them many surprises that will not please them...I do wish everyone a wonderful weekend

Mornin' All,
Thank you Loretta for that information and for sure will keep Jim and Olivia in my thoughts and prayers. Love is such a wonderful thing and also one of the easiest things to express and yet the other side of that seems to fill the media these days. But that, as I see it is all the more reason to be reminded how important it is to hold on to compassion, love, caring and looking out for each other. I have always felt that when a people lose their language and culture they lose their souls as well and so it is with love...to lose that ability to love rather than hate, to see difference rather than commonality.... is the path to losing ones own self. Love and hate are both four letter words...one destroys...the other heals and it is easier on the body to express goodness than it is to get all worked up with anger.
One thing I learned as a Corpsman in Vietnam was that life can end in an instant for anyone...there are no promises of a tomorrow and all we have is the moment so why not make the best of it rather than dwell in the negative.
Here at WN I find hope, inspiration, caring and good energies and I hope the rest do also. Today is a good day to share a smile, to reach out and help someone or just be a listening ear for those in pain. I enjoy walking beside people...never in front or behind but side by side as an equal even if they don't see life that way.
Look in your mirror...love yourself enough to love others and forgive yourself that you can forgive others and move forward along your path to the top of your own sacred mountain.
We have had a lot of rain here in the last 24 hours and woke to a dusting of snow. The Cloud People have gathered in council and are taking their time in deciding what will be next but I know that behind the clouds is the Sun with all it's good life giving energy and reminds me that even when gloomy times come along all I need to do is look a little harder and find the rays of sunshine to light my day.
Walk in beauty each of you...know what a wonderful gift you are and when sad times come remember that tears cleanse the soul and without tears, there can be no rainbows.

Hot Chocolate weather today... while sitting outside I enjoyed the changing weather with a blast of rain, hail and suddenly dry. Mother Nature putting on a show and of whats to come.. Mt Hood has snow and my mountain passes have seen a few flurries but no reports of it sticking..so will wait for daylight and go out to check Saddle Mountain.. If it has snow then I know I need to get myself prepared for whatever Mother Nature has planned for me..she always brings me joyful times..

Wishing everyone a wonderful day and I ask none of you take this day or any day for granted. Last night I heard from a Brother Veteran whose Wife the love of his life is in the Hospital asking for prayers for something that seems impossible to overcome..He has placed his trust in God and he knows God knows Olivia has always been there for Him before Nam and after Nam facing every up and down together as one..So if anyone feels inclined to also pray for Olivia and Jim I thank You.. So please be like Jim who will Smile even with a heavy heart knowing if time ends for his love she will see a Smile instead of tears...

We never know what is next so make this a good day for those you Love.

Another day with mornings in there 40's and I sat outside with my hummingbirds.. I do have a couple that have accepted the human greetings and will sit with me on their perch's occassionally having nectar while I had my coffee.. Even during the stormy weather of the last couple days they have been right here.. This morning the Eagles were even flying low as they headed for the bay.. If life granted me just one wish I would wish that all children and adults could enjoy that peaceful feeling of being connected with the Earth and Nature feeling the beauty of what surrounds us which many are blind to.

Have a wonderful day and Smile as you make your way through it. You may be the only sign of hope for someone in need.

Embrace each new day with passion, was my thoughts for today.
I sat outside and viewed my maple tree which only a short time ago was so beautiful with reds and orange leaves and now it is bare and getting ready to rest. But still it is beautiful in it's own way. Everything changes including us.. So embrace today and smile

Comment by Loretta Riddell (Elohi) on November 11, 2017 at 8:23am

In my world Everyday is Hug and Love a Veteran. But today is the day chosen to Honor them All. Thank You is really not enough when we look back and see all they have done for Us and Others in other Countries..The Oaths they took when they put on their Uniforms many of them still live by today even though they live with the past they still seek to deliver us Peace, Freedom and a life many of their Brothers and Sisters sacrificed their Lives for.Please show Them All the Respect and Love they so deserve..

So may you all know through this weekend a little Love goes a long way to healing a heart of a Veteran, Soldier or the Family. A simple Smile and Thank You may not be enough but at least they will know someone cares...

There is no mountain, river or ocean too high or wide that can keep us from coming together as Brothers and Sisters, but it is up to us ..

Comment by Tsoi Tawodi on November 11, 2017 at 5:32am

Wishing all of you a good weekend of peace, love and harmony. Today is Veteran's Day and to all who have served, are serving and those who support them, as a fellow Vet, I say THANK YOU for your service to not just our country but also to the people who enjoy freedoms that many in other countries do not have.
War is such a terrible thing and if there is one thing I would like to see gone it would be the ego's of humanity that cannot accept compromise and refuse to work together for a common good.
So often people around the world focus on differences when in fact these differences bring variety and new ideas to all of us.
As the rain produced rainbow brings a variety of colors together to create something beautiful so can humans do the same thing if only we concentrate on what we have in common rather than why we are not the same.
Thank you to each of you here...you reside in a place of peace where hate is not welcome but getting along and encouraging words are the path that defines this home.
Walk in beauty and perhaps one day you will look over your shoulder and see flowers growing in the footprints you leave behind.
Sidanelai
