Saturday Solace

Hello everyone!  A very warm welcome to you all! The videos I have chosen for this post are:

A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire

Identical Twins have Identical Twin Horses

Organizing Motivation!

Petticoat Junction Theme Song

For the following, I am providing the link sources beneath each photo.  You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.

Gratitude is one of the sweet shortcuts to finding peace of mind and happiness inside.  No matter what is going on outside of us, there's always something we can be grateful for.


The greatest miracle is to be alive.


Every night, someone thinks about you before they go to sleep.


Treasure the gifts of life you have in this moment, and no matter what - count your blessings.


When one door closes try a window.  Then try a new door.  Then try a new window.  Life offers many doors and windows.  Keep your eyes open for them.


Try to say nothing negative about yourself.  For 3 days. For 45 days.  For 3 months.  See what happens to your life. - Yoko Ono


Happiness starts with you.  Not with your relationships. Not with your job.  Not with your money.  But with you.


My super power is faith.


Honey makes so much sweeter the bitter taste of lies; some need only a spoonful some need the whole darn hive.


If light is in your heart, you will find your way home. - Rumi


Life is the movie you see through your own eyes.  It makes little difference what's happening out there. It's how you take it that counts.


Nature does nothing uselessly. - Aristotle


It's not about inspiration and motivation.  It's about implementation. - Diane Conklin




Thank you all so much for visiting me here!  I always appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share!

  1. Hi Linda, as always I got a giggle out of the Just for Laughs feature. The story about twin horses for twin girls was really something and the organizing video is perfect for me right now as I am decluttering shortly for better home organization. Have a wonderful weekend. x

  30. Well, now we know the chicken comes first. If it's dead. :) And I have a question: Could one man love twin women equally? Or would he have to split his love between the two? Hey, people in Hollywood want to know! :)

    Fun times, Linda!
