Monday Magic

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

Cat Takes her Kittens to Meet an Old Friend

Swinging Cow Brush

Autumn Serenade - Johnnie Johnston (1945)

How to Set an Autumn-Themed Table 

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.

Everything will be okay...(just in case you're feeling a little boo).  :)


There comes quite naturally a lightness and a joy that is innate in us, when we are not fixated in past and future.


Today, embrace the changes you are going through...just know it's going to be okay.


Everything you're going through right now is helping you to grow.  Trust it.


The more you are thankful, the more you attract and notice things to be thankful for.


You are not allowed to let the sadness ruin you.


This is your reminder to slow down.  Slow down your talking.  Slow down your breathing.  Slow down your eating.  Slow down your reacting to what others say and do.


Do what is right.  Not what is easy.


Stop pressing rewind on things that need to be deleted from your life.



It is time to let go of the people and things which are hurting you - even if it hurts you to let go.


Sometimes in life, we become so focused on the finish line that we fail to find joy in the journey.


You will never regret being kind!






Thank you all so much for visiting me here!  I always enjoy and appreciate reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share!

  12. Hi, Linda! Hope this Monday finds you doing well, and that it is not too cold in your area. We are still very warm (in the upper 80s) and the humidity is high. I wonder if this is our "new" weather pattern turned permanent?

    Thank you for the reminders today, and the food for thought. Your encouragement and enlightenment always help. Wishing you a great week!

    hugs,

  16. Greetings, LInda! Thanks again for your very nice comments. Today, I'm ready to rock and roll because of that kitty video with the mother cat, kittens and dog. What a delightful find! And there were a couple of posters that really spoke to me and I thank you for them, too. Hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

  18. El vídeo del perro con los gatos muy simpático y demuestra que no siempre se llevan mal, en especial si se criaron juntos.

    Saludos.

    Happy Monday~

  21. Those cows seem to enjoy their "cow brush!" Cute video.

  22. "Stop pressing rewind on things that need to be deleted from your life." This reminds me of a interview I listened to recently when Vin Scully (baseball announcer) retired. He said he credits living a long, enjoyable life to two words: Done, and Next. He said you've got to move on when something is DONE, and look for WHAT'S NEXT.

  23. The little kittens don't know what to make of that dog!

    Have a terrific day Linda. ☺

  28. What a wonderful post. Enjoyed it. Thank you.

    God bless.

  29. Dear Linda your wonderful post worked like magic for me. Loved the mama cat introducing her kittens to her friend. Such a sweet video. That cow brush was amazing. Never saw this before. The quote about kindness is so true. I certainly always find that wonderful gift here when I read your posts. Have a delightful day. Hugs!

  30. Yes, I loved seeing the cats and dogs happily together!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Hi Linda. I really quite like the idea of having one of those cow brushes for myself. Maybe fixed above my favourite chair and my wine table or next to the bed above the alarm clock to soothe me when the music wakes me up.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Awwww, love the one with the lil' kittehs visiting their Uncle Dog! One of my dogs used to sleep with our cat all the time and only the cat was allowed into his house!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Hello Linda! A wonderful post again, thank you. Dogs and cats are so lovely. Have a good week!

    ReplyDelete
  34. A sweet video of the cats and the dog. I liked the thought to stop hitting the rewind button, too.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Hello Linda! I enjoyed your Monday blog today. The dog and kittens video is so sweet, we have a situation like this in our home right now, the rescue dog thinks the rescue kitten is her baby and it is the sweetest thing ever.

    The 40s song, oh that we would have that climate of the 40s today, I think I should have been young in the 40! : ) We love 40s music here in our home!

    The sayings are perfect, many very appropriate for me. We sometimes have to push the button and close past compartments or future ones in our ships and live in the moment. You would be surprised how right on and timely the quotes you chose are.

    You take care now, I enjoyed everything and will be back to watch more of the videos! Great choices! Great visit with you today!

    Blessings!

  36. Linda, Love the mother cat and kittens with the mom's dog buddy. Once the kittens were introduced, mom just let the interaction happen...but the dog waiting to play 'rough' with mom when the opportunity presented itself! Never saw an automated cow brush before!

    If more people that I know would just 'stop pressing rewind' on the things and people that they need to 'delete', they'd be so much more happy... Some folks apparently like to suffer...repeatedly! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

  37. Bonjour Linda, oh, tout mignon les petits chatons avec le chien!!! Bise, bonne soirée tout en douceur!

  38. Such a lovely blog. Thank you for visiting mine. :)

  39. thank you for the encouraging words.

    ReplyDelete
  40. so focused on the finish line that
    we fail to find joy in the journey

    Happens most times when something is pressing. The joy is in the journey or it'll be boring even upon reaching.

  43. What a lovely post. Thank you!

  44. I have a "thing" for table settings. I don't dress my own table very often, but I LOVE a creative table setting. Shiny glasses, nice crockery and cutlery and a little adornment - I think it gives a whole experience to a meal.

    ReplyDelete
  45. You will never regret being kind is my favorite quote of the day. So true. I also liked the one about being thankful.

    ReplyDelete
  46. It is time to let go of the people and things which are hurting you - even if it hurts you to let go...

    lovely...

    ReplyDelete
  47. The statement about being so focused on the finish line and not enjoying the journey was particularly relevant to me. For years I've been so focused on my professional goals that I didn't realize until too late that my youth (my twenties) had passed me by, and I didn't let myself fully enjoy it because I was always working so hard.

  48. Good day Linda.......................

  53. Hi Linda! I loved watching the fall table video. It's not that hard, it just takes time and intention...it looks so pretty!
    the Karen Salmansohn images and quotes were perfect for me! I'm going to share them on Twitter :)

    So hard to do but it is wise to for our own peace of mind. Thanks, Linda! A good reminder. ^.^
