Just breathe...and remember, when you're stressed is when you most need to look at all the ways you're blessed.
No matter how dark the storms, you will be happy again...and you little dog too!
I think I'm falling for you... :)

Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.
Best lesson I ever learned came from the worst feeling I ever felt.
It's not what happens to you that determines how far you go in life. It's how you handle what happens to you.
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!
Oh, I especially enjoyed the Andy Griffith Show video. So many scenes brought back memories of the episodes they represented. Thanks for posting it.
ReplyDeleteAs always, thank you, Linda! xo
ReplyDeleteGood morning Linda!:) Enthralling video clip of the seal pups interacting with the diver,..really lovely to watch. Have a great day Linda, and thank you for all the quotes and beautiful music.
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love the Bird Bath! And the Wild Sea Pups! ☺
ReplyDeleteHave a great day, dear Linda!
I really like Celtic music, a wonderful video Linda.
ReplyDeleteThe finches at the bird were a thrill to see and the seal pup was a delight.
ReplyDeleteBonjour. J'ai aimé la phrase de Karen Salmansohn.
ReplyDeletePasse un bon mercredi, Linda.
Bisous
ReplyDelete"I think I'm falling for you... :) "est bien trouvé Linda

Mais um belo conjunto de vídeos que gostei de ver.
ReplyDeleteContinuação de uma boa semana.

Hello, I love the bird coming and going at the bird bath. It is one of my simple pleasures. Great videos and inspiring quotes. Happy Wednesday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteHello Dear Linda!
ReplyDeleteI love Celtic music.
It is a great joy to visit you and your blog.
Kisses and greetings.

'Just breathe... and remember'... So often difficult, Linda...
ReplyDeleteLove the Andy Griffith show. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteThe best way to start the day is right here on your uplifting blog. Thank you, Linda!
ReplyDeleteI liked the poster about storms, especially in view of Hurricane Matthew heading our way. Actually, I think our location will miss the brunt of it - I hope! But lots of folks are going to lose power. Our daughter in south Florida should be OK, but they may have to come stay with us for awhile because all the shelves in the grocery stores are empty and if they lose power and water...well. Heck, it will be fun to see the family again!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I find Celtic music soothing (usually), and no one, I mean no one, beats Frank Sinatra! The photo of the Andy Griffith actors reminded me as to how most of our sitcoms these days are nothing more than sex and vulgarities. We tried to watch a new Netflix show the other night and turned it off after about 10 minutes of awful language and stupid sexual innuendoes. Obviously, the writers don't care about plot or character these days.
On a brighter note, thanks for your comment on Ocala! God held up us all if Trump should get elected. You remain a light on the horizon! Have a wonderful day!
Loved all the Andy Griffith show photos!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy watching the wild sea pups playing with the divers. They are so gentle and friendly.
ReplyDeleteA purring cat can really chase away stress!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! I also watched the Andy Griffith video, my husband still watches reruns of the show. The Celtic music was really beautiful too. I'm Irish, and my daughter was involved in Irish Dance when she was in grammar school. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThe meme about being a human being, not a human doing made me smile. Great thought for today!
Blessings,
Ceil
An eclectic choice. I enjoyed the behind the scene one best.
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice if you could add a "Like" button so that when one does not have anything of significance to comment he can mark attendance as it were by clicking on that.
I enjoyed Wild Sea Pups video. They are so playful :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the last quote. It's very true!
Enjoyed all the videos and quotes in todays post. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteThe birds are ever so cute. We have a fountain too and used to keep it running all the time. We could spend hours watching the birds drink and bathe. With the severe drought we're having we turned it off.
ReplyDeleteAwww on the seal pups. That was amazing.
I so loved the Andy Griffith Show. I have watched the reruns a time or two as well.
Have a fabulous day Linda. ☺
"No one looks stupid when they're having fun." I'll have to remember that the next time I try to dance.
ReplyDeleteThe birds are so cute
ReplyDeleteGreat post, I love the videos. I'll put the birds and fountain on a post with a link to your blog.
ReplyDeleteOh I just love the birds ... such a joy.
ReplyDeleteAutumn Leaves ... a favourite and great for this season.
Happy mid-week wishes
All the best Jan
Linda, I love the finches in the water! How precious! All the "quotes" today, really hit a spot with me! "Your lowest moment in life can be your best if you survive it and learn from it." Yes!!!! So true!!! Big Hugs and Much love!
ReplyDeleteGood ol' Frankie! But my favourite rendition of Autumn Leaves is by Nat King Cole.
ReplyDeleteAlways love the videos and the quotes. Wise words, wise words :)
ReplyDeleteHow appropriate that Celtic music is. The temperature has just turned a bit nippy.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
All those quotes are so inspiring and encouraging. Thanks for sharing!

Liked the animal videos the best. In the past I've often had an escort of seals swimming around my kayak in sea lochs as they are very curious about anything entering their domain and always check it out.
ReplyDeleteI've always thought that if I were an animal, I would probably be a seal. So of course, I loved the seal pups. What animal would you be, Linda?
ReplyDeleteI still watch Andy on TV at least once a week. He is still on some channel everyday-amazing:)
ReplyDeleteMore wonderful videos ~ What is it about birds splashing in water that is so soothing? I loved the Andy Griffith show, so it was fun to see the photos. And the music Celtic and Sinatra. Mom used to say that she and those of her generation were just as wild for Old Blue Eyes as my friends and I were for the Beatles. And the seals!!! Wow! Wow! I really struggle with taking the time just to be; it is very hard for me to do nothing, so thanks for the reminder! Hugs to you my dear friend!
ReplyDeleteLinda, Loved the seal pup video! That gray pup sure liked to be rubbed and scratched...Acted like our cat when he gets is daily massage! FYI...My wife watches reruns of the Andy Griffith Show every afternoon that we're home... Have a great day! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteSometimes the best way to recharge our batteries is to unplug them. <-- This is great advice, Linda. I have been doing just that and it has worked wonders. ;D
ReplyDeleteSometimes the best way to recharge our batteries is to unplug them.
ReplyDeleteNice collection...
Frank Sinatra is awesome, thank you Linda!
ReplyDeletewonderful bird-video:)
ReplyDeleteHi Linda. I happen to think that Frank Sinatra was the greatest singer ever. Never surpassed and never will be. Enjoy your own autumn leaves this week.
ReplyDeleteOh, how I wish I could play with those sea pups as well, dear! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE the Autumn Elves and Autumn Leaves songs.
ReplyDeleteLinda los vídeos de animales siempre me gustan, sera porque me gusta la naturaleza.
ReplyDeleteEl de música celta me pareció muy relajante.
Y sobre las reflexiones muy acertadas.
Saludos.
Hi Linda. Thanks so much for visiting my place, and leaving a comment. So nice to have new people drop in.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Mac
cute leaf art
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, I was thinking of the amount of time you put into these posts. You do such an amazing job! Had to tell you thank you again! I always appreciate your kindness at my blog. Blogger gave me a fit yesterday so I gave up and posted two days of Scripture there! Whew,,,,,sometime, it is better to start with a clean slate. Your shares are plentiful and I love each one of them. Thanks for the kind friendship here. You are one of those rare gems we treasure as a friend. Joyful Hugs, Anne
ReplyDeleteJust breathe... in and out... good advice. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with Sinatra.
ReplyDeleteHi, Linda! So happy to spend time with you this evening. Loved the two falling leaves, with one falling for the other! I also enjoyed the reminder that we are heroes of our lives and not victims! Thank you, sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteCeltic music is quite soothing and mystical.
ReplyDelete"Your lowest moment in life can be your best if you survive it and learn from it." I definitely agree to this as someone who went through the crucible and persevered.
