I have added a new poll, this time about movies, and you will find this on the upper right hand column of my blog. I notice that some of you have already seen and responded to my new poll, thank you! I am allowing you all to choose as many as you like, in other words, you are not limited to choosing just one...if you like more than one genre of movie, choose the ones that you like. Thank you all so much for taking the time to vote in my polls. :)
The videos I have selected for this post are:
A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire
Lady Surprised by Squirrel Passenger in her Car
Affogato (Thirsty for...)
Let's Make a Sandwich (1950)
Filipino Traffic Cop Dancing to Michael Jackson
I posted this video on my blog a very, very long time ago, but some of you may not have seen it. Even if you have already seen it, this is well worth watching again! It is easy to see that this guy really enjoys his job, and anyone who is watching him enjoys the enthusiasm he obviously brings to many people! :)
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.
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
A big secret for happiness: ignore people who do crappy things to you.
Take life day by day. Be grateful for the little things. Try not to stress over what you can't control.
Your words have great power. Use them to support and inspire.
When you look deeply into your anger you will see that the person you call your enemy is also suffering. As soon as you can see that, then your capacity for accepting and having compassion for them is there.
Don't look for love; quietly give it away and let it find you back.
Accept who you are with all of your flaws, you are a beautiful person, give yourself applause. You may be fat, you may be skinny, you may have a disability or think you're not pretty. Your own view of yourself is not what others see, true beauty is on the inside...shine and be free.
Failure is an event, never a person. - Zig Ziglar
When you practice self-compassion and embrace your imperfections, the light of unconditional love will flow from you into the world.
Sometimes, you just have to play the role of a fool to fool the fool who thinks they are fooling you.
In America they call it Survivor. In Canada we call it camping.
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!
Always a delight to read your posts:)
ReplyDeleteLovely! And glad that squirrel made its way back into the wild, thanks to the kindness of strangers.
ReplyDeletenew poll today. I like sci fic, comedy, action(depending one what type of action. Don;t like too much violence) and of course cartoon LOL. Am a big kid LOL
ReplyDeleteI voted in your poll :)
ReplyDeleteDelightful post! As a long-time coffee lover I went directly to the "Affogato" tutorial. The Italian word for "drowned" puzzled me but I can imagine fates far worse than drowning in the resulting confection. Besides, unless I grossly underestimate its dimensions, there is little danger of drowning in the cup shown in the video.
ReplyDeleteNever tried an affogato before. For one thing, this is only available at those classy coffee places where the drinks do not come cheap...plus the milk (in the ice cream) in it makes me sleepy. I guess I can live without it.
ReplyDeletemerci de ce partage , cette fois j'aime moins le dernier tableau ...il est coloré mais pas trop mon gout
ReplyDeletebisous et belle semaine
awesome, have a great week.

It would be lovely to see 'Cops' like these, but the first time I wouldn't trust it...
Great post... I love affogato!!!

Accept who you are....that's a good one. They all are.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, dear Linda! I voted! :) Isn't it funny how a cute little furry animal like a skunk can fill people with terror? I was very happy to see the trapped squirrel freed and released into the wild where he belongs. That old sandwich demonstration reminded me of the Dagwood sandwich, named after Dagwood Bumstead from the comic strip Blondie. The dancing traffic cop reminds us that work becomes play when we find a way to make it fun.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, dear friend Linda!
Hi Linda, if only we have our traffic police dancing on duty! It would take off the stress from the drivers. I have done the voting.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely in a mood for some affogato now! xoxo
ReplyDeleteBonjour Linda,
ReplyDeleteJ'ai bien aimé le vidéo avec le petit écureuil ♥
Je t'embrasse

Another truly brilliant post.
I love the Canada t-shirt...and I would love to see those cops. Would definitely reduce stress...lol
Have a great day!
xoxoxo
very fun! Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteI laughed out loud at that T-shirt! A bit of truth there, I think. Now, so far skunks go, one should stay far away even if they're faux. :)
ReplyDeleteBonjour Linda,
ReplyDeleteJ'ai bien aimé tous tes posts comme toujours. Un petit coup de coeur pour l'histoire de l'écureuil et également pour ton affichette :"A big secret of hapiness"
Je te souhaite une bonne fin de journée.
PS/ Ma musique est toujours là et c'est toujours la même. J'espère que tu pourras l'écouter ????
Bises Linda

ReplyDeleteQue de belles pensées! Bise et bonne soirée toute douce!

ReplyDeletefantastic post my dear, lovely quotes!
ReplyDeleteNo doubt that ignoring certain people in your life is great advice for happiness.
ReplyDeleteLove the enthusiasm of the traffic cop. It just shows that it doesn't matter what you do - it's all about your mindset in creating a happy space or not.
ReplyDeleteLOL ..
ReplyDeletethe traffic cop is great! :-)))
A new poll! Ok. I am on it.
ReplyDeleteI love that police traffic video. Make my day. Haha.
cute art of the flying cat
ReplyDeleteHa, ha! Love the "Meanwhile in Canada" today!
ReplyDeleteThat Filipino dancing cop is amazing. But I don't think he is actually directing traffic. Very encouraging quotes here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog the other day.
ReplyDeletei like this poll, since i love movies :) and the skunk video was fun to watch, since i've never been near a skunk in real life before :)
ReplyDeleteAdorei a dança do policial de trânsito, não precisa nem de academia
ReplyDeleteVocê é uma jovem dez anos mais nova do que eu.kkk
