For those of you who were away for the weekend, I posted a new poll on the right hand column of my blog. There are now two polls, and it would mean so much to me if you would take a couple of moments to vote in the first one, (if you haven't already), and in my second and latest one. These polls will help me to determine what you most enjoy in my blog posts and will help me to post more of the things you like. Thank you so much! :)
The videos I have chosen for this post are:
A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire
Elizabeth Montgomery and Vic Damone singing "Bewitched"
Baby Vervet Monkey Rescued from African Brush Fire
Didn't it Rain - Sister Rosetta Tharpe
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.
Why waste time doing things you don't enjoy doing but think you should do? Life is meant to be enjoyed, not endured.
Good friends help you to find important things when you have lost them...your smile, your hope, and your courage.
Confidence is not 'they will like me'. Confidence is 'I'll be fine if they don't.'
When you're tempted to be upset, ask yourself, "Is this worth giving up my joy?"
A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves. - Amelia Earhart
Finding old music you used to love is like getting back in touch with an old friend.
A secret to happy relationships: Listen! Truly listening and wanting to understand another is one of the highest forms of love.
Be in love with your life; every minute of it.
If you're making mistakes it means you're out there doing something.
Never look down on anyone unless you're helping them up.
What the world needs most from you is the thing you love to do!
When it rains, look for rainbows. When it's dark, look for stars.
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!
A very nice batch of quotes for today!
ReplyDeleteyou're right ... good friends have helped me from time to time to find my smile, hope and courage :)
ReplyDeleteGreat choices Linda, love the quote about good friends. This is so true.
ReplyDeleteHi! I like the quotation of "Good Friend" Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a good week, my friend! It is really hot in Texas and I can only imagine it would be much more comfortable in Canada this time of year!
ReplyDeleteWonderful, thanks for sharing all of that. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteGoog gag, Linda !
ReplyDeletepoor little monkey:)
ReplyDeleteI can remember Bewitched, a very nice series.
ReplyDeleteNice choice of messages today. I find I need them even more on Mondays! ;-)
ReplyDeleteLoved the Bewitched duo and the monkey rescue too.
Hope all is well and keep cool. <3
Yes, live life! It's too short to waste - time gone past, we'll never get it back, make the most of it!
ReplyDeleteHa ha.. That was a good one.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Sister Rosetta can rock with the best of em!
ReplyDeletethanks for making my Monday happy, love you.
ReplyDelete"Good friends" a ma préférence Linda
ReplyDeletegreetings
| great post Linda, there is always so much positive energy from it!
ReplyDeleteThe elephant is beautiful...
ReplyDeleteLinda, there are so many I like today! I love Life is meant to be Enjoyed!

I voted on the poll. Looks like my favorite, Meanwhile in Canada, is on the lead :-)
ReplyDeleteGood morning, dear Linda! I voted in your new poll. That old clip of Elizabeth Montgomery and Vic Damone singing together reminds us how formal and stiff TV music variety shows used to be compared to today's entertainment. I was touched by the rescue of the baby velvet monkey. I hope the little fellow is doing well these days. My favorite video was the performance by Sister Rosetta Tharpe. She was a music pioneer, enormously talented, like a female Chuck Berry, and influenced greats like Little Richard, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear friend Linda, and have a happy Monday!
je te souhaite une belle semaine
ReplyDeleteici avec du soleil ce matin , pourvu que ça dure
Honestly, I don't know how the JFL team keeps coming up with such great gags. This was another good one. I could really relate to the quote that said "Finding old music you used to love is like getting back in touch with an old friend." There's so much truth to that.
ReplyDeleteI love your quotes Linda... this is an awesome one '' When it rains, look for rainbows. When it's dark, look for stars.' Happy Monday ♡
ReplyDeletecool elephant art
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, I like the quotes about good friends and kindness. Especially love the when it rains look for rainbow and when dark look for stars.
ReplyDeleteGreat choices Linda :-)
ReplyDeleteAgain you out did yourself. I so enjoyed the musical videos and the monkey one was cute. Great choices on the quotes. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteGood morning Linda. I love this statement, " Good friends help you to find important things when you have lost them...your smile, your hope, and your courage " and Candy Waters, Autism Artist work lately has been just anazing. I look forward just to see what type of art she will have done.
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic Monday my friend. See ya.
