The videos I have selected for this post are:
The 1940's House - The Dining Room
(several of you watched and enjoyed the 1940's kitchen in my last post so I thought I would share this video as well). I hope you enjoy it.

Six Reitmans Commercials (I posted this video quite some time ago on my blog, but some of you may not have seen it, and even those of you who have seen it may enjoy seeing it again) This is a short, 3 minute video, like all the videos I post). Enjoy! It will make you laugh...it makes me laugh. :)

Spend time with your parents and treat them well. Because one day when you look up from your phone, they won't be there anymore.
Humans are the only creatures on earth that will cut down a tree, turn it into paper, then write "save the trees" on it.
Time doesn't heal you; you heal you.
Anything that costs you your peace is too expensive.
May your troubles be less and your blessings be more, and nothing but happiness come through your door. Have a fabulous day!
Goodness is the only investment that never fails. - Henry David Thoreau
Feeling guilty that you got angry is adding another rock on top of the anger. take a breath, observe the anger, accept it, let it go...you'll do better next time.
Today, take the time to slow down...live in the moment...appreciate your surroundings and celebrate all that is good.
Being negative is like spraying yourself with toxic energy.
Most of us do not take challenging situations as teachings. We automatically hate them. We run like crazy. We use all kind of ways to escape. All addictions stem from this moment when we meet our edge and we just can't stand it. We feel we have to soften it, pad it with something, and we become addicted to whatever it is that seems to ease the pain. - Poma Chodron
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!
Hi Linda Love the last quote so true Although I realise we can learn and grow from challenging situations, dealing with the pain always is a hard one
ReplyDeleteLoce the video from how they lived and protected themselves during the war in the 40's and soo love the fairy houses I got one in my garden as well :)
I don't know how you find all these wonderful quotes, but I am grateful. I consider myself a positive person, but these little nudges keep me that way.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful blog Linda. I wish you a very good new week.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the fairy houses video, I found it so uplifting. The quotes as always made me think.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have all the fast food here but once in a while I don't mind having KFC. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteSome great sayings here as always. The one about parents is so true. My Mum was here one moment and gone the next, such a shock. Have a good day Diane
ReplyDeleteReitmans commercials are really nice!
ReplyDeleteYou will make it through this and it will make you stronger.
ReplyDeleteNice collection...
Always interesting, funny, touching and a learning experience, too... convenient and easy to get to!!!

I loved the "a girl's gotta have options."
My eyes held tears on the one about parents. Mine have been gone for many years and the world will never be quite the same~
Your post is a treat for the soul!
ReplyDeleteThank you!

Hello Linda, did I ever tell you how much I like your words at the top of blog? I’m a 58-year young HSP born in the UK, and I love your blog! Now to look at today’s offerings thank you as always for sharing them. Barbara.
ReplyDeletePS The 'save the trees' slogan is hilarious and oh so true! Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteAwesome sharing, dear! Have a great week! xoxo
ReplyDeleteFabulous sentiments today, Linda! Thank you for visiting the internet to find the Beauty of videos, photos, and words to share with us! love, de
ReplyDeleteAll the houses I lived in during the 40s (let's see, there were five) had dining rooms but in most cases we ate our family meals in the kitchen and used the dining room for company. Love that last poster...it really describes the reality of addiction.
ReplyDeleteHave a Happy Week Linda!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful post, Linda. Thank you for this. It is always a pleasure to visit your blog. Have a good week. Greetings from Finland´.
ReplyDeleteMornin' Linda, lovely set of videos and sayings. That cat video reminds me of when I was a visiting nurse. I went to visit a patient and found her cat on her chest pressing his paws back and forth. She was in heart failure and I swear that cat was doing CPR (catio-pulmonary resusitation instead of cardio). I got her to the hospital but she eventually passed away in a few days. I will never forget how her cat was trying to help her. Amazing animals.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a beautiful day.
I did other in your poll. I love Popeye's chicken the very best. It's a spicy southern style of chicken. It's most wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAwww on the kitty that helps his master. I linked you to Awww Monday.
Loved the 1940s dining room. It was a scary time in history for many.
Have a fabulous day Linda. Big hugs. ♥♥♥
Love the old Sinclair commercial!
ReplyDelete"Anything that costs you your peace is too expensive" Whoa, that's it exactly!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! That video of the mom and the son with autism just melted my heart. I have a nephew with autism, and he loves to hike. He can go for hours! What a beautiful place she has made here, and that she responds to notes just lets you know that her heart is truly in this project.
ReplyDeleteI put a few of your memes on my Twitter account, as always. Love coming here to see what you've found :)
Blessings,
Ceil
The toxic energy pic speaks to me.
ReplyDeleteFun poll. I voted for McDonald's! I love their cheeseburger :-)
ReplyDeleteHello Linda!
ReplyDeleteWonderful videos and wise words! Thank you so much ♡
Have a nice new week!
...And very goog quotes, Linda...
ReplyDeleteune intéressante citation de Henry David Thoreau..Linda
ReplyDeletegreetings
Dear Linda so often when I visit here you have shared a perfect quote or thought. I so appreciate all the wonderful work You do for all your followers. The quote "Today slow down...was just the perfect reminder to savor each moment because there is no promise of tomorrow. Thank you too for the great videos. The Reitmans made me smile too. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteGreat videos and wonderful quotes. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteMerci pour cette belle douceur chère Linda! Bise et bonne semaine toute douce!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful assortment of quotes and images. They are lovely!
ReplyDeleteLovely blog Linda! Nice videos and images. All the best xx
ReplyDeleteWhoever Reitmans hires to do their advertising campaigns is hilarious! Humour is really catchy and makes you have a positive opinion of a product I think.
ReplyDeleteTrue! True! "Be kind, be fair, be honest, be true, and all of these things will come back to you." What goes around comes around...
ReplyDeleteThank you for a very good start to my week!
ReplyDeleteI especially liked the video of the mom and the son with autism.
Good wishes for this new week
All the best Jan
Tudo muito bonito e útil, Linda!
ReplyDeletebe kind, be fair, be honest, be true, and all of these things will come back to you. - something that I believe in.
ReplyDeleteLove the dining room and that fairy house one was so darn cute.
ReplyDeleteSo many good quotes-thank you for another wonderful post! Love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely post Linda and I filled out your poll. I chose DQ because if we want an ice-cream treat I am rather partial to their peanut butter cup blizzard. Don't really eat a lot of fast food but when we are on a road trip, we sometimes go to MacDonalds as they are everywhere in places you sometimes can't find a stop over
ReplyDeletekarma... be nice to others and it will be back to us :)
ReplyDeleteGood stuff post!
ReplyDeleteno fast food place should be anyone's fave if you ask me :) In other news, my cats would probably let me die, I don't think they'd ever lift a paw to save me :) But joke is on them, 'cause there would be nobody to feed them after me :)
ReplyDeleteHello Linda!:) It was fascinating and humbling to see the way people lived in the 1940's,..we tend to throw away so much food today, and take for granted central heating, and many other creature comforts. They were hard times, but people just got on with raising their families, and pulling together. "You will make it through this and it will make you stronger" seems the perfect quote for the war time years of the 40's, and through my own experiences if you overcome adversity, it usually does. Dear Linda, thank you for the funny fashion Faux pas video, and the inspiring story of the mother and her autistic son, and the lovely fairy houses they made. Linda, I always enjoy, and take away something of value from your blog, but never realized that I wasn't following you until today, so I made it official.X
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day, Linda!
ReplyDeleteKiss
Hello Linda, great post and videos. It seems lately we need more kind people. My favorite fast food is Chic-fil-a. Wishing you a happy day!
ReplyDeleteHello Linda,
ReplyDeleteImpossible de laisser un commentaire hier et aujourd'hui cela fonctionne.
Merci pour tous tes jolis posts et vidéos.
Belle journée. Bises
Love the 1940's house!
ReplyDeleteI have a fairy house in my yard. :-)
That's a rather sardonic but true statement Linda. "Humans are the only creatures on earth that will cut down a tree, turn it into paper, then write "save the trees" on it."
ReplyDeletei wanted to join in your poll but couldn't find a "fish and chip shop". Shame.
Hi, Linda!
ReplyDeleteThis is the place to store up encouragement for sure. I'm facing dental work tomorrow. No fun, but I feel lighthearted just visiting you. Happy early birthday! I pray you will be blessed on your special day and in the year to come! Big hugs to you.
Heips Linda,
ReplyDeleteNice post as usual.
I wish you happy times.
I didn't see the poll. I guess I am too late! Sorry!
ReplyDeleteI am grateful for your blog and you Linda!! Big Hugs!
There are so many animal heroes in our world. Love this story about the cat helping his human. I have no memory at all of a Sinclair commercial like this one. I don't remember ever hearing of gasoline with nickel in it. I loved seeing the offer of that little transistor radio. I remember when "filling stations," as we called them, often offered free gifts with "fill-ups."
