Wonder Filled Wednesday

Hello everyone!  A very warm welcome to you all!  The video I have selected for this post is a 2 minute clip about a pet gander named "Valentino."  Enjoy!  :)

The photo I am sharing today is one that I took on a nature park walk in the summer of 2010.  You just need to click on the image to see a larger view.

  10. I totally go with your quote:

    Quotation: I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. - Maya Angelou

    I often find this is so true.
    that memory and experience will always lead in the direction of the emotion.
    That is: How we make others feel.
    Cheers!

  30. Oh Linda - Valentino is the best. I am so glad you shared this video. What an amazing bird. Watching the winter arrive on the weather channel is just too cute. Beautiful picture of your nature walk...boy I can't wait till it gets warm and green here again. Have a great week-end. P.S. that is a great quote too. Very appropriate for your blog because you always make me smile.

  33. Very interesting about the swan goose. I admire their commitment. Our cats and dog are enough for us. That quote is soooo true about people remembering how you made them feel. I can remember back to high school teachers who made me fearful because they were stern.
