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

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.

At the end of the day I am at peace because my intentions are good and my heart is pure.


Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. - Mother Teresa


You never know what someone is going through.  Be kind.  Always.


Live out of your imagination, not your history.


The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any. - Alice Walker


Life isn't about pleasing everyone, it is about hurting no one!


You were given this life because you are strong enough to live it.


My alone feels so good, I'll only have you if you're sweeter than my solitude. - Warsan Shire


Some see a hopeless end, while others see an endless hope. - E.B. Norton


Failure is an event, not a person.  Yesterday ended last night. - Zig Ziglar


Care less about what you own.  Care more about how you live.


As one wastes their breath complaining, another breathes their last.  Take nothing for granted.  Live more, complain less.  Have more smiles, less stress.


If you surround yourself with clowns, don't be surprised if your life becomes a circus.  :)


Sometimes letter go is an act of far greater power than defending or holding on. - Eckhart Tolle


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!

  6. Love the quotations but this has got to be my favourite: As one wastes their breath complaining, another breathes their last. Take nothing for granted. Live more, complain less. Have more smiles, less stress.

  7. Thanks to the kind guy the turtle can return to the sea safely. My heart goes out to the lost dog but it was wonderful that it now has a loving family that loves and takes good care of the dog.

  19. I felt really bad for the dog but good people showed up and gave him a nice forever home. A wonderful end to the sad story. My favorite quote is: You never know what someone is going through. Be kind. Always.

  23. Happy Midweek Wishes Linda ...
    Super videos again, I did enjoy seeing the sweaters.

    A smile, a show of kindness to someone often works wonders, I did like this quote "You never know what someone is going through.  Be kind.  Always."

  25. Oh my goodness, that poor little dog, but she was rescued and is a happy girl now. She so deserves it! We have five doggies from similar situations like that now, they are a huge Blessing to us!

    So glad the turtle was helped! That poor thing.

    Those quotes are outstanding. They are so good, I read several outloud to my grown daughters here. Bravo!

    I really enjoyed my visit Linda! You take care now, give that Romeo special pets for me. : ) Praying for the housing situation too.

    Super hugs coming your way! love, Amelia

  27. Linda, My wife saves a couple of turtles (not sea turtles though) every year. She has me stop the car and she takes them across the road in the direction that they were headed.

    I clearly remember all of those sweater fashions...although the twin sets did make a comeback later. The only thing missing from the video, and maybe they weren't big in the UK, was a poodle skirt! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
