Thursday's Post and a New, Simple Poll!
Hello everyone! A very warm welcome to you all! I have just added a new poll at the top right hand column of my blog! I just want to know what month you were born. Thanks so much for participating in my polls, I really appreciate it! :) The videos I have selected for this post are: A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire

How to Take Care of a Cockatoo
A Drone in Iceland
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. Letting go is part of moving on to something better. You will not get what you truly deserve if you're too attached to the things you're supposed to let go of. Sometimes you love, and you struggle, and you learn, and you move on. And that's OK. You must be willing to let go of the life you planned for so you can enjoy the life that is waiting for you.
It's better to let go and look forward into the future instead of the past. Life is too short to be angry all the time when there is actually happiness around you.
How emotions harm your body...anger weakens your liver, grief weakens your lungs, worry weakens your stomach, stress weakens your heart and brain, fear weakens your kidneys, love brings in peace and harmony and strengths your mind and body. Laughter reduces stress, and a smile spreads happiness.
Hello Linda. A wonderful post from you again. This is what I like: Enjoy the wonders of today. You never know what tomorrow may bring! - Have a nice weekend!
Hello Linda, Great post! I enjoyed the images in the Iceland drone video. What a beautiful place to visit although I wouldn't like to live in such a cold country! What one can do with a drone... Thanks for sharing and keep well :)
c'est avec un matin d'automne , vent , fine pluie et ciel gris plomb que je passe te dire bonne journée ...
mais on a le soleil dans le coeur ...:):)
a demain une petite poesie ...
Crépuscule rustique
La profondeur du ciel occidental s’est teinte D’un jaune paille mûre et feuillage rouillé, Et, tant que la lueur claire n’est pas éteinte, Le regard qui se lève est tout émerveillé.
Les nuances d’or clair semblent toutes nouvelles. Le champ céleste ondule et se creuse en sillons, Comme un chaume, où reluit le safran des javelles Qu’une brise éparpille, et roule en gerbillons.
Chargé des meules d’ambre, où luit, par intervalle, Le reflet des rayons amortis du soleil, Le nuage, d’espace en espace, dévale, Traîne, s’enfonce, plonge à l’horizon vermeil.
Mais l’ombre, lentement, traverse la campagne, Et glisse, à vol léger, au fond des plaines d’or. Septembre, glorieux, derrière la montagne, A roulé, pour la nuit, le char de Messidor.
I voted! It would be really nice if I can take six month vacation twice a year :-) And definitely, save a paw! Some people just don't know how horrible declawing is - good to raise awareness!
Oh Linda...you are truly amazing...all these wonderful quotes and videos every single day! You enrich so many lives.
That "Emotions" one really caught my attention...I honestly hadn't considered how our emotions affect our bodies. If there ever was an incentive to try hard to remain positive, then that is it!
Good morning, dear Linda! I voted in your latest poll! When I was a boy my aunt and uncle operated a store that sold previously owned housewares and collectibles. They obtained their goods from garage sales. They knew that dirty, dull and tarnished items made of metal, wood or glass can be cleaned and polished, restored to their original beauty and sold for a profit. My parents bought me a parrot at age 14. Like the cockatoo, he was fussy and temperamental, squawked if he didn't get attention, bonded with one person (my dad) and experienced separation anxiety when dad wasn't home. Drone cams have revolutionized movie making, giving us spectacular views above city skyscrapers and rugged terrain in remote regions of the world.
I got a good laugh out of the gag video. The Iceland video was beautiful. Great quotes especially the one about I need a 6 month vacation twice a year. Have a blessed day. Madeline
What strikes me today is your "Don't Declaw" message... Please do not declaw your cat! They actually cut off up to the first knuckle of the cats toe. Imagine having the tips of your fingers cut off, that is what it's like for cats!
Does anyone trust the police in Montreal? Especially near a honeypot? LOL! That video of Iceland gave me shivers! It is a raw and magnificent country! I so want to return! Have a good one, Linda!
Wonderful shares today (as always, Linda) - thanks for mentioning the polls - today I visited via my computer instead of my cell phone, and the cell phone doesn't show the side bar. LOVE the iceland drone video, and the encouraging words - you are a dear, and make a big difference in my daily routine. hugs, de
"A drone in Iceland" - wow. I heard a funny story about how they named Iceland and Greenland - one sounding more beautiful than the other to steer travellers in a different direction... Don't know how true it is - but an interesting thought.
Linda, these are all very good quotes, and I can't pick a favorite, although I did love "the ones who notice the storms." That is powerful. You give so much inspiration to everyone who reads your blog. You are a dear person.
Please do not be shy! I appreciate your kind comments, they are sweet treasures and really make my day! Spammers, do not waste your time, I delete your comments and they do not even show on my blog.

Thank you Linda, I don't know how you find such a lovely variety to share with us. Each day is a delightful surprise.

ReplyDeleteGeorge Eliot, that will do for me today.

ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Linda!
Lots of food for thought here, Linda! And it's all good stuff! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLoved the gag. For a big guy he sure could place scared.
ReplyDeleteI too need a six month vacation twice a year. Oh wait, I'm retired.
Have a fabulous day Linda. ☺

ReplyDeleteLoved the video about Iceland! Now I want to go visit.

ReplyDeleteThe dog and cat cartoon is hilarious. I love the drone video; I'd love to visit Iceland for myself.
ReplyDeleteI voted... I'm from February.
Cats! Always the best way to have my attention ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, since a little girl, I have always dreamed of having a cockatoo!
ReplyDelete"A Drone in Iceland" est une superbe vidéo Linda
ReplyDeletegreetings
Tout est tout beau comme toujours, merci ma belle Linda! Bise et bonne soirée dans la joie!
ReplyDeleteI'm born in July en 58 too, enjoy your Thursday Linda
ReplyDeleteCute gag again today. And a good public service reminder about what declawing means to a cat.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone trust the police in Montreal? Especially near a honeypot? LOL! That video of Iceland gave me shivers! It is a raw and magnificent country! I so want to return! Have a good one, Linda!
ReplyDeleteGood advice and attractive videos.

ReplyDeleteI like the quote about letting go even if I find it difficult to carry out. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
Happy weekend Linda :-) great post again !
ReplyDeleteDeclawing just terrible.
ReplyDeleteCats would probably keep their claws if they didn't ruin every piece of furniture
