If we do not abolish war on this earth, then surely one day war will abolish us from the earth. ~ Harry S Truman 33rd U.S. president Born on: 8th May 1884
Porte Ponderings:
The world stands by doing nothing as Israel continues the genocide in Gaza. Major access for human aid from Egypt have been cut-off. One million civilians were told to get out of a major city within 24 hours. Finally the USA has stopped shipment of military supplies to Israel. Probably too little, too late.
DAILY TAROT: Q QUEEN OF CUPS
I trust my inner voice and treat myself with compassion.
Awaited pleasures and success are now coming due. People in high position not only offer you assistance, but may bestow some sort of recognition on you.
Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark.
~ Rabindranath Tagore Indian Poet Born on: 7th May 1861
Porte Ponderings:
So much to do. So little time. With the fence blown down we are facing the reality that the garage needs to be repaired and painted. We used some of the broken fence boards to repair the bottom sill of the garage and bought paint, barn red paint was almost $100 cheaper than any other colour, so the garage will be barn red. If there is any left over the shed will also be barn red. Today’s task is to finish the repairs and scape off the loose paint to prepare the for new.
But wait, there’s more. ~ Ron Popeil Inventor and TV host Born on: 3rd May 1935
Porte Ponderings:
The wide deep puddle may have stopped me with my sneakers, but Rickie ran through as soon as the deer left and wanted to pursue the game.
The by-election results are in. Poor turnout for the by-election and the Conservatives have retained their hold on our area with a 50% count.
DAILY TAROT: III THREE OF WANDS
I am ready to take the next big step to realise my potential.
A card of good fortune. The key to unlocking growth, expansion, and foresight. Fresh starts, achievements, and positive partnerships. It represents freedom, adventure, travel, moving abroad and foreign lands.
This planet is not terra firma. It is a delicate flower and it must be cared for.

Porte Ponderings:
Sometimes we are forced to take a different path or re-route our energies. Yesterday walking the trails in my local conservation area, was one of those days. The morning rain left my chosen trail blocked by a huge puddle. So Rickie and I thought we would take another trail to reach the steps up to see the trilliums. Well, our timing was perfect to see the White Tail Fawn standing at the base of one of the boardwalks. Reflected in the puddle (also too big for me to get across with my running shoes) and watched by it’s mother the fawn stopped to look directly in the camera before it went to run the forest with it’s mother.
Then Rickie walked fearlessly through the puddle and waited on the boardwalk for me.
DAILY TAROT: 0 THE FOOL
