@southernlights55,

The same with me we did fun things with each other like going to the movies.
I so enjoyed the Endgame. ♥ I also got flowers and the works. How is your furbaby?

I did see the Heidi Daus piece and it is one of my favorite I better hurry.

Hi Sheba, The June Heidi Charm is available on Heidi’s website. For those who are collecting, get it while you can because they usually sell out. Hope everyone had a relaxing Mother’s Day. Hubby made a big breakfast and we went to one of my favorite restaurants for dinner. It was a nice day just slowing down and spending time together.

@loaf,

Oh Loaf Doris Day has passed she was 97. May she RIP! My grandmother used to watch
all her movies and played her songs. ♥ Doris Day will be missed.

Que Sera Sera
Doris Day

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here’s what she said to me
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows
Day after day
Here’s what my sweetheart said
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be
Will I be handsome
Will I be rich
I tell them tenderly
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
Que será, será

Being Your Own Village

Sometimes we need to be our own village by utilizing all of our skills and learning more.

Simple survival requires us to be in possession of many skills. The pursuit of dreams requires many more. Most individuals rely on the support of a village, whether peopled by relatives or community members, to effectively address the numerous ways we need assistance. This can mean anything from asking favors of acquaintances and leaning on loved ones for support to paying a skilled artisan to handle specialized tasks. However, each human being is born with the capacity to be their own village. We embody many roles throughout our lifetimes, all of which are representative of our capacity for self-sufficiency and self-determination. In different moments in our lives, we are our own counselor, janitor, caregiver, cook, healer, teacher, and student. Our willingness to joyfully take on these roles grants us the power to maintain control over the direction our life’s journey takes.

In times past, human beings learned all of the skills needed for survival. Today, the majority of people specialize in a single discipline, which they hone throughout their lives. Thus, many of us feel uncomfortable standing at the helm of our own existence. We question our ability to make decisions concerning our own health, happiness, and welfare, and are left feeling dependent and powerless. But the authority to take ultimate responsibility for our lives is simply a matter of believing that we have the necessary faith and intelligence to cope with any circumstance the universe chooses to place in our path. Proving that we can each be our own villages through action enables us to accept that we are strong enough to exist autonomously. Cooking, cultivating a garden of fruits and vegetables, undertaking minor home repair, or adopting a healthier lifestyle can help you reassert your will.

Being your own village does not mean embracing isolation, for a balanced life is built upon the dual foundations of the inner and the outer villages. Rather, being your own village is a celebration of your wondrous inner strength and resourcefulness, as well as an acknowledgment of your innate ability to capably steer the course of your life. ♥

Cherie,

I had a very good Mother’s Day. ♥ I went to Mass hubby made a delish breakfast.
We went out and had lunch and then to see ENDGAME. Oh Cherie I was not disappointed.
You were so right about it being three hours and I enjoyed every thing. I saw all the
Avengers. ♥ Are seats were great everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. I am going
to see it again. I wore my new Heidi Daus Jacket as we were chilly and it rained buckets
yesterday. I still had a great day. 🙂

I am so glad the kids and you had fun I love the Detective Pikachu Movie. Cherie that
character is on PBS and I have seen it before. Get some rest this month will be busy and
fly by so fast. Where did the year go? Cherie you and the Captain have a great day. 🙂
Hugs to your Mom. 🙂 My mom loved the 10K Gold Cross and Chain I brought for her. ♥

@kittengirl,

Top of the morning in Cali. I am glad you did a shout out. Take care of those kitties and yourself.

@loaf,

Good Morning in the Rock and Roll Capital. Loaf I do hope you were able to BBQ yesterday.
I hope the rain let up. We rained all day. It did not wrinkle my day one bit. As a mom of
four like you I had a terrific day. The kids all sent great cards and gift. One day they will
realize they are gift. ♥ I love giving birth to them my kids are the light of me and my husband.

Loaf here is to sunshine we are sunny and on the cool side. ♥

Loaf the funeral is being planned I write this with a heavy heart. I am doing alright.

@taci,

Happy Trails to you I love saying that. 🙂 Taci I did see the ENDGAME! All I can say is AWESOME!

If you can spare three hours it is worth it. We do have luxury theaters here. I wore my
new Heidi Daus Jacket because it was downright chilly yesterday. WE had a great time.
I saw every hero I can imagine. I did catch a glimpse of the late Stan Lee. ♥

@bichon18,

Good Morning in Florida to you and Jerry. I read your post below. I do my walking
short distance in the morning and long distance in the moon light with Poppy. ♥

I take a 1802/Perlier shower and I sleep like a baby. We do have things going on in the
family so a few days ago I did not sleep. When I need sleep i have to turn off everything
including my music. No bluelight whatsoever. I only drink water at night the walk just
clears everything in my head and looking at mother nature and the heavens above works
for me. ♥ I like Kitty Kelly’s Book on Jackie Kennedy. The Kennedy Years really was Camelot.

This is how Poppy looks when he is sleeping. Poppy is a Papillon Pure Bred my daughter
gave him to me after my little Sheba passed. ♥ I love Poppy so much. When I get my
cat I will let you know what he/she looks like too. 🙂

Beautiful Crisp Day here in OZ. We are in the 50’s the sun is out and I must say the flowers
are trees are blooming welcome Spring at last. 🙂 Have a cup.
