There is great beauty in going through life without anxiety or fear. Half our fears are baseless, and the other half discreditable. - Christian Nestell Bovee
Count your blessings, not your obstacles.
When you practice gratefulness, there is a sense of respect toward others. - Dalai Lama

Laugh with your eyes, hug with your soul and smile with your heart. Have a blessed day.
Sending good vibes.
You can and will get through this.
Don't focus on who let you down. Appreciate who lifted you up. Don't focus on who darkened your days. Appreciate who brightened them.
You don't gain anything from stressing. Remember that.
Your words and actions not only influence your mood, but the moods of all who cross your path. Speak lovingly. Do lovingly. Be a messenger of love.
Don't do something permanently stupid just because you are temporarily upset.
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!
I really appreciated the quote:

That's good to remember. Also the "Be a Messenger of Love" quote reminded me of the song Happy Tracks
Great post, Linda. Thanks!
Isn't it amazing the computer advances that have occurred in the last 60 years? Now we can carry a computer in our pockets! Incredible.
ReplyDeleteFound all these videos very interesting Linda. I loved learning about the hummingbirds and the Pygmy sea horses, the computers too, the funny video and that yacht, amazing! Always enjoy those wise words and illustrations. Thank you for taking the time it must take to do your wonderful posts. Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteI too was amazed with the advances in technology in such a short time. The quotes are always food for thought.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many today would know what a gramophone is. Would be a collector's item if one has one and it is still working. Precious!
ReplyDeleteHummingbird in a wind tunnel, is special and beautiful to see Linda. I wish you a nice Friday.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Linda. Yes, I'm back from Greece.
ReplyDeleteYour top videos today are just wonderful. I thought the hummingbird story was fascinating as well as beautiful. And then I watched the pygmy seahorses to be astounded again - truly spectacular.
The natural world just carrries on the delight and amaze me. Thank you for finding those videos for everyone to enjoy.
Excelentes vídeos.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e bom fim-de-semana.

ReplyDeleteBonjour Linda.
ReplyDeleteMoi aussi je te souhaite une belle fin de semaine. Je te remercie pour tous tes jolis posts. Ils sont supers !
Interesting videos of hummingbird and pygmy seahorses. Great information.
ReplyDeleteHello, I love the hummer video. Your quotes and images are beautiful. I am always grateful. Thanks for sharing your inspiring post. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose hummers are so darn cute...and Rowan A is always a riot. I remember when computers first began to take over cash registers. I said they would never work! I didn't want some stupid machine counting up my tab! Boy, was I wrong about that! 😻
ReplyDeleteHi dearest Linda...do hope you're having a great day!
ReplyDelete"You can & will get through this" really leaped out of the page today! It is just what I needed to hear. Thank you so much.:)
Wow, all these wonderful quotes and videos are so inspiring.
Yes, I needed these positive thoughts today...:))
Much Love & Hugs xoxoxo
Loved the hummingbirds. I learned a lot. We feed all the birds here and hummingbirds are our favorite of all the birds. Too precious.
ReplyDeleteI want the yacht, but I don't have 4 million to buy one. It would be very cool to have though.
Have a fabulous day and weekend Linda. ☺
The eco-yacht is totally cool, Linda! Let's have fun together! xoxo
ReplyDeleteCan never go wrong by reading the Dalai Lama! The man signifies peace and love, and he's always laughing with people.
ReplyDeleteGramophone..., can happen, Linda...
ReplyDeleteI learned a lot from your videos. Great quotes and art work as usual. Have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend. Madeline
ReplyDeleteThat hummingbird video is very interesting! They are such beautiful creature. I loved the eco-yacht video, too!
ReplyDeletetrès belle citation du Dalai Lama..Linda
ReplyDeletegreetings

ReplyDeleteHummingbirds are always a favorite!!!! Thank you for sharing these wonderful quotes with us as well !!!!
ReplyDeleteVery good videos ... and I think Count your blessings, not your obstacles is good advice.
ReplyDeleteGood wishes for the coming weekend, it will be the first weekend of October!
All the best Jan
computers sure have changed
ReplyDeleteThanks for another great, heartwarming, encouraging post, Miss Linda! Lovingly, de
ReplyDeleteLinda, We have hummingbirds and they are a marvel. I enjoyed seeing how they coped in a wind tunnel! The Univac commercial was a hoot... These days a smart phone can work faster and provide more data. As for an appropriate saying...that fits at least half of the American political scene at the moment...the bit about doing (or saying) something permanently stupid over a temporary upset seems to fit. Of course, that's only half of the sad story that is the American Presidential contest! As a Canadian friend asked me, "How can a country with 320 million people come up with 2 candidates who are so completely disliked? Life goes on... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteWhen I was little I wanted to own a seahorse!
ReplyDeleteAmazing how computers have changed since 1956!
ReplyDeleteLovely mood in videos!!!

ReplyDeleteVery true... Nice collection...
wow loved the diversity of your amazing sharing but loved the bird most
ReplyDeletePigmy Seahorse is so cute and it’s interesting to know how they get colors to be well camouflaged. In Japan Seahorse is called “tatsu no otoshigo” literally meaning “dropped child of dragon”. Perhaps named after its mysterious shape which makes you imagine this; when a dragon was flying in the sky, he mistakenly drop his child into the sea, the child is tatsu no otoshigo.

ReplyDeleteHello! Thank you for your visit to my blog! I LOVE the hummer video. I sure wish I had tons of them around my feeder. My little guys have all gone south, but I do have visitors that stop by now and then. Glad I still have my feeder out-it's cold here now!

Very true!
Hummingbirds are quite fascinating. They're like helicopters. They can hover around unlike other birds :)
