Candid Camera - The Handshake
Things Cats Teach Us

How Does a Jellyfish Sting?
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.
I was the same person I was before you found out I have a mental disorder.
A calm mind brings inner strength and self-confidence, so that's very important for good health.
To find peace you have to accept life as it is - rather than as you would like it to be.
Love is being with each other, for a moment, without our stories, and just breathe.
Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day. - Henri J.M. Nouwen
Please know that it's not unusual for life's most challenging times to be followed by the best years of your life.
Trust the timing of your life. All will come to you at the perfect time.
Don't just talk the talk of kindness. Walk your talk of kindness. Rumba some kindness. Salsa some kindness.
Most of our problems are because we act without thinking or we keep thinking without acting.
Remember that time you thought you'd never survive? You did. And you can do it again.
It's one of those days where even my coffee needs coffee. :)
Much of the pain in life comes from having a life plan that you've fallen in love with, and when it doesn't work out, you become angry that you now have to pursue a new life plan. If you want to tame your inner demons, you must not become too attached to any particular life plan, and remain open to there being an even better, happier life plan.
When you can talk about your feelings with someone you trust, they become less scary, less overwhelming.
Sometimes the best thing you can do is not overthink things. Just breathe and have faith that everything will work out for the best.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post. I love cats, as you know, so loved the things that cats can teach us. And I love Candid Camera, and babies laughing and all the wonderful posters. Thanks for helping the week get off to a good start!
ReplyDeleteA fun way to shake hands. Cute and adorable cats. The cute baby is amuses by the tactics of the cat. I heard that jellyfish sting is a very painful experience!
ReplyDeleteAwww on the kitties and that laughing baby. I linked this post to Awww Mondays.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day Linda. ☺
Just noticed your "I am Canadian" logo on the side, and I want to extend my thanks to all Canadian's during the 9/11 terrorist attacks which sent our US planes to Canada. You kind and helpful folks went over backward to make a bad time into something full of good-neighborly spirit and love. I don't think enough Americans say it, so I am...Thank You, Canada!
ReplyDeleteUn très bon début de semaine Linda. merci pour tes posts tous plus beaux les uns que les autres. Bises
ReplyDeleteDeberíamos ser positivos siempre.
ReplyDeleteLos pensamientos que nos dejas son para ser reflexionados detenidamente.
Saludos.

ReplyDeleteIs there anything more infections than a baby's laugh? Love that video. Karen Salmansohn comes up with some mighty fine quotes. I like this one today: "Most of our problems are because we act without thinking or we keep thinking without acting."
ReplyDeleteI would not stay that long, Linda, for the handshake.
ReplyDeleteHello Linda, some very wise words on your blog today. How true it is that most of our problems are because we act without thinking, or we keep thinking without acting. Loving the videos too, thanks for a super post.

ReplyDeleteI thoroughly enjoyed your post today, Linda!!! And the quotes you chose certainly hit home, the ones about best times following tough times and how important it is to remember that you know you survived and you can do so again. Have a lovely day my special Montreal friend! XOXOX
