How you doing? :)
In a world where you can be anything, be yourself.
Standing alone is better than standing with people who don't value you.
Sometimes you have to sink down further than you've ever been to rise up higher than you've ever gone.
Studies show that pets are great furry therapy. They relieve stress, lower blood pressure and reduce cortisol (which is associated with depression and anxiety). Plus they elevate oxytocin (linked to happiness and relaxation). And they are gosh darn cute!
The desire to reach for the stars is ambitious. A desire to reach hearts is wise. - Maya Angelou
If you want improved relationship, improve your health. You have more to give others when you feel energetic, focused and comfortable in your skin.
Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned. - Cherie Carter-Scott
It's really not that complicated to live inspired and more joyfully even amidst undesirable circumstances as long as you can slow down from the inside to notice when your thinking is affecting your experience.
We all smile in the same language. :)
If you get knocked down, take a look around...you might find unexpected wonders.
The things in life that really matter are rarely on my "to do" list.
Crab cakes :)
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!
Yes, be yourself...and as the line of a song goes, you can't please everybody so you gotta please yourself!
ReplyDeletei love the pet tortoise video ... i had a small tortoise when i was young, but it didn't live long. i'd like to have a tortoise! :)
ReplyDeleteYes having a pet is a vrry good therapy
ReplyDeleteI’ve never seen a man walking his tortoise in the neighborhood, but it’s so fun to see especially such a cute tortoise. Sometimes I feel I never learn a lesson repeating the same kind of mistake and I can’t help but laugh at myself in the constant choices and consequences. Have happy days ahead, Linda.

The Cayman Islands look like a wonderful place to me! Even though it's still summer, I am already wearing a scarf, coat and this morning I contemplated putting something on my head to keep my ears warm. A bit of a warmer climate sounds like heaven :-)
ReplyDeleteThat moose has a nice smile:)
ReplyDeletele dernier tableau me fait penser au peintre Magritte
ReplyDeletebisous et douce journée
Scary gag, Linda. Very nice quotes.
ReplyDeleteYou had me on the tea until they started mentioning all those exotic ingredients. I bet it is tasty though! I like the Canadian moose and the pet therapy too. Hope you are having a nice week!
ReplyDeleteAmazing that man walking tortoise.
ReplyDeleteThe Cayman Islands are very beautiful, I want a couple of weeks to go there.
ReplyDeletesuperbe vidéo relative aux " Cayman Islands" Linda..
ReplyDeletehave a nice day
I would like a trip to the Caymen Islands, please!
ReplyDeleteBonjour Linda,
ReplyDeleteJ'aime beaucoup la citation, nous sourions tous dans la même langue...C'est tellement vrai!
Je t'embrasse et bonne journée
Manon
Ha ha... Poor old man!
ReplyDeleteThere are days when I feel like I am "standing alone."

Oh my goodness, that tortoise from Japan is huge! How cute they walk together like that :-) Love the Karen Salmansohn image..it's very true!
ReplyDelete'We all smile in the same language!' Love it!
ReplyDeleteDivertido gag y bonitos vídeos.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Hello Linda
ReplyDeleteJe m'arrête ce jour sur ta vidéo de la tortue. Comme j'ai pu te le dire déjà, j'aime beaucoup les tortues terrestre. Nous en avons 5 dans notre jardin.
La tortue de la vidéo est une tortue Sulcata. Nous avions la même et nous l'avons gardé 19 ans.
Bravo pour tous tes autres posts qui sont toujours de grande qualité.
Belle journée à toi. Je t'envoie une grosse bise
Hello and have a nice day.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, dear Linda! Today's gag video made me laugh out loud. The one man caught stealing the police cruiser acted so nervous that it makes me think he was on parole. Those tips for stress management are excellent. I would like to add that playing your favorite music and singing and dancing to it is another good way to unwind and beat stress. God bless that huge tortoise. The creature will surely be sad when he outlives his owner. I hope he winds up with another caring person who takes him for daily walks.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday, dear friend Linda!
Awesome post, L ...please don't stop any time soon ... Love, cat.
ReplyDeleteI was afraid that one man in the JFL gag was going to have a heart attack. I was glad to see his relieved smile in the end. The tortoise was interesting.
ReplyDeleteAnother good post. Great videos and quotes enjoyed them one and all. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteThat gag was a good one. I would have been beside myself.
ReplyDeleteLoved the tortoise. What a nice thing to do.
I want to go to the Cayman Islands.
Have a fabulous day Linda. ☺
That moose is really funny!
ReplyDeleteI like the smile language one
ReplyDeleteGood morning Linda. I went on a cruise and one island we stopped off was the Cayman Island. In fact there is spot in the video that shows a Carnival ship right there. It could have been my ship. LOL. That was the time when I met a former student of mine. He was working in a bank. I met his wife and she was beautiful. The Cayman Island was a very beautiful place to go and maybe someday I'll want to go back there.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful Thursday my friend. See ya.

I have a Tiger Salamander...perhaps a walk is in order.
ReplyDeletePrecioso pots, y tienes mucha razón todo lo que ocurre en la vida es una lección. Un enorme beso y se muy feliz.
ReplyDeleteOne must always love the sight of moose!
ReplyDeleteHow does one care for a pet tortoise, I wonder. And I think that I'd not want to be caught stealing a cop car! :) Isn't that line with the moose from "Friends." Joey's line with girls was "How YOU doin'?)"
ReplyDeleteIt's so important to be yourself , enjoy your Thursday Linda
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! You always have something on your blog that helps me feel better. I think I need to really focus on the de-stressing ideas! Ha! Have a great weekend! ~ Diane
ReplyDeleteThe tips for stress management sound so simple, yet so few of us seem good at following them.

ReplyDelete<3 Thanks Linda!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! The gag was so funny! And your post today is filled with so many inspiring and true words. I've known forever that faking a smile can make you feel so much better! And it really works! But I don't have to fake a smile when I think of you, Linda! I can't keep a real one off my face! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteOh my Linda - what a huge tortoise. Your animal videos never cease to amaze me. Loved the quote about pets...since I have several I should be the healthiest gal on the planet!! Hugs - thanks ever so much for making me smile.
ReplyDeleteI once again leave smiling. Thank you Linda :)
ReplyDeletelove the shares.
