Monday Magic

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

Jim Carey - Canada

How to Make a Cute Cat Bed

Timedrift II (4K)

One of the Funniest Comedy Sketches of all Time!

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.

There's good times.  There's bad times.  But there's still time. - Steve Fromholz


If you're not being your truest self, then what the heck is the point?


Appreciate people who can see the sorrow behind your smile, the love behind your anger and the reason behind your silence.


Stop saying can't!  The word "can't" is a naughty curse word, because it will curse you to become less, have less, love less, hope less.


Be strong.  Speak up and refuse to let others hurt you.  In your life, some will discredit you, disrespect you and treat you poorly - for no apparent reason at all.  Don't consume yourself with trying to change them or win their approval.  And don't make any space in your heart to hate them.  You don't have control over how you decide to internalize their opinions.  Let people love you for who you are - not for who they want you to be.  Or let them walk away. They can't harm you either way, it's their understanding that is faulty, not yours.


Want to change your past?  Change your tomorrow's past.  Make sure your today is as happy as possible.


Be the person who makes you happy.


If you feel you grew up in a toxic family, make it your legacy to break the family legacy.  Your new motto: the pain stops here!


I find that over time I grow apart from people who do not seek to grow.


Do what is right.  Not what is easy.


Often it's the deepest pain which inspires you to grow into your highest self.


Sometimes in the winds of change we find our true direction.


Your body is a precious temple.  If you are going to life a long, fulfilling life, then you want to take care of yourself now.  You want to look good, and most of all, feel good, with lots of energy.  Nutrition and exercise are important. - Louise Hay


What are your blocks to feeling and looking good?


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!

  3. I live my best at this - If you're not being your truest self, then what the heck is the point? And through my experience it is so true - Often it's the deepest pain which inspires you to grow into your highest self.

I like that, friend L. ... Love, cat.

    I don't like Jim Carrey style clown / actor
    But these WV and after then Lunch Menu are good

    Now here is the beautiful winter days
    Snow is now 2 cm deep, and frost -12c
    During this week, the frost rises, somewhere - 25 - 27 celsius.

  13. Not much into Jim Carrey but I did love that comedy sketch and all of the posters! Lots of good thoughts to begin the week and the year! Merci!

  14. I can't remember who it was--some female comedian--who told Jim Carrey he needed to tone down the faces he was making early in his career. She said he'd do better to stick with impressions and straight comedy. How wrong she was!

  22. Happy Monday, Linda! Great quotes today--I especially love the one about "can't" being a bad word. I never thought of it that way, but it's true!

  23. Well, I know what it's like to have toxic family members.

  24. Happy Monday, Linda! Thanks for the welcome laughs this morning. I had a university roommate once who was always advising me to change how I acted if I wanted to catch a good boyfriend. But all I could think was "Why would I want someone who didn't accept me for whom I was. I couldn't not be me for a potential lifetime!" What is the point indeed! Have a wonderful day!
