Principle: Poise and good manners are manifestations of integrity and honour.
......original photography and artwork by bleujay.
'A Fresh Start'
Principles are timeless truths/concepts/proverbs for our ponderance.
Thank you Steemit readers.
A kind note to all new Steemians......good manners and thoughtfulness of others will take you far....as for those who leave notes and links directing members to their site.....please be advised this is not the Steemit way.
Welcome to Steemit.
"The cat behind the flowers" will be added to a new novel.
hehe, just kidding but likes the picture very well and looks like the cat is used to posing for the photographer
Thank you @xpilar for your lovely comment.
So happy to hear you enjoyed the post.
Yes.....a splendid idea for a title.
Indeed, it seems that way does it not....'used to posing for the photographer'.
bleujay is fascinated with the expression on the cat's face......so intriguing.
Appreciate you stopping by.
Wishing you and yours a lovely weekend.
Cheers.
NB Thank you for the reSteems.
Just nice, looking forward to your next pictures @bleujay
I think the cat backdrop offsets everything just perfectly :O)
And those are indeed very good indicators! Thank you for the principle @bleujay!

Lovely poem you had out there.

A bientot.
so beautiful pics
Thank you for your kind reply @beautypics.
Cheers.
Lovely photographs! The white blooms are very refreshing to the eyes and uplifting for the spirit, especially with the bitter arctic temperatures we have in so many regions! ❄
How very true!!! In addition to integrity and honour, poise and good manners are also manifestations of attentive parenting @bluejay Happy New Year!
Very kind of you to drop by @ninahaskin.
Thank you for your thoughtful reply.
Appreciate your kind wishes.
Happy New Year!
Thank you very much!!!
nice principle to live by @bleujay, the blooms and the cat are both a plus :-)
So glad you enjoyed the post @scarletmelissa.
looking forward to more good thoughts and posts @bleujay :-)
So true, I agree with you. A person could never reach that level of refined poise, good manners, respect for honour and integrity without having to experience or at least have attentive parents who are boldly concerned about instilling moral values to their youngs. Parents and would-be parents nowadays should put this in their Parenting Manual 101 :-)
It really shows true strength of a person that can keep good composure in times of stress. Integrity and honor surely must be found first. Great photography as well and as always bleujay!
Thank you for your splendid reply @hansenator.
All so true with regard to the principle.
Appreciate your kind remarks regarding the photographs.
Looking forward to reading your posts.
Wishing you all the best. Cheers.
My engineering club met today and I got videos of the submarine. Doesn't look the best, but it is finished. Now we have 4 or 5 more to make so we can race them. Haha. I am really tired, so I may not post tonight, but soon!
Congratulations @hansenator.
I will give it look.....
There is something about the color photos that caught my attention. If only I could put a finger on it or even describe it.
Nice job
Thank you for your kind reply.
So glad to hear you enjoyed the post.
Cheers.
Welcome to Steemit.
Photo number 2 - very special. Thank you @bleujay
Thank you for your kind words @madlenfox.
Appreciate you dropping by.
Wishing you a lovely weekend.
Happy New Year!
I like the color photos converted to B&W. Thanks for the advise on the way to reply.
Thank you for your kind comment @sundown.
Cheers.
Nice photos!, and you are so correct...good manners seems to have gone by the wayside for some; you reap what you sew...never ask for things because good karma will come to you! Cheers!
Thank you for your reply @lynncoyle1.
Interesting....no good karma for bleujay........It is God who determines what comes to bleujay.
...ask and you shall receive.....addressed to believers in Christ Jesus.
All the best.
Cheers.
Those words does have deep meanings if someone thinks it in real life way and gets to use them as well :)
Nice flower & amazing shot !

Thank you for stopping by dear @pepe.maya.
Thank you for your lovely words and compliments.
I am delighted to hear you found the cat 'cute' as she was irresistible to include somewhere and where better than with these flowers.
Always happy to hear you enjoy the principles.....pure music.
Wishing you a lovely weekend as well. ^__^
It's all about respect, not for self only but for others. Very good principle to start off the year. I'd draw out my thoughts but I want others to give these words some thought as well.
Do you paint and draw or are you getting creative with photo editing? Very beautiful one way or another - it's all art.
Thank you for your kind words @countrygirl.
Yes...it was posted with the new year in mind.
You have a sharp eye....bleujay does have an art background.......bleujay opened another account....@bentleycapital......for art and such.
Thank you for your interest.
Wishing you and yours a lovely weekend.
Cheers.

What An Awesome Clicks You Do Just Awesome ...
I may not have poise but I would like to think I do have good manners so I am half way there LOL
Thank you for your reply @tattoodjay.
Halfway there.... ^__^
Must say your poise comes through and good manners as well.
Appreciate you stopping by.
Cheers.
Always a pleasure to visit
Take CareHi @bleujay and thanks to you for sharing these wise and thoughtful words.
P&U
Greetings @kingcoins.....Appreciate you dropping by.
Thank you for your kind reply....so happy to hear you have capacity for the principle.
Take care. A bientot.
I totally agree with you, being nice and respectful to other steemians is a very solid foundation for success on this platform. Lovely pics!
Thank you for your thought-full comment.
Appreciate your kind compliment.
The principle sounds good but hard to follow in our fussing time. The B&W pics in contrast to the colorful ones also are provoking to think over; they are a sort of a background, especially for the note which is wise simply, suggesting avoid vanity
Thank you for your comment @leosenior.
So glad to hear you were caused to ponder the post.
Welcome to Steemit.
the photos really caught my attention today they are really amazing to see thanks for sharing that and the principle is evergreen true words :)
Thank you for your kind response @cutiepie.
Appreciated hearing you enjoyed the post.
All the best to you. Cheers.
Thank you for adding "pretty into my day
Thank you for your kind words....what a lovely comment.
Welcome to Steemit @nananini.
So happy to hear you enjoyed the post.
Cheers.
just ah perfect shot..
Thank you for your kind reply @henryrider.
Good news and provoking to think in the articles from you)))
agreed!
To be balanced, you would need to know the right posture, to have a strong core and a strong base...
Manners are not anything to do with whether you are rich, have had a good education or grew up in certain social circles,. Today people are much more likely to define themselves by their work, their interests as well as their background or social status.
Nice photography...i also like your flowers..thanks
Aw Amazing..!!
Another great principle
Motivation is indeed key in do many ways for growth
Nice selection great f shots with beautiful flowers
Perhaps you did not read.....since this principle has nothing to do with motivation.
Also there is no such thing as a f shot anywhere on bleujay's site.
However your reply has motivated this thought......
Perhaps you are in need of a Saviour.....the one whose birthday was celebrated last month.....that of Christ Jesus.
For you see, God loved the world so much that He gave His uniquely born Son...that anyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Wishing you all the best.....God's best. Cheers.
