How to Make a Romantic Dinner for Two

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.

The difference between a flower and a weed is a judgment.


Be the kind of person you want to be around. Protect the names of others in the same way you would hope that they would protect your own.  Forgive with your whole heart, even as you would seek forgiveness for your own mistakes.  Love...love yourself, love others, completely and without ulterior motive, fear or judgment.


Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop. - Rumi


Sometimes it's tough to explain what's going on in your head when you don't even understand it yourself.


I can't tell if I need a coffee, a hug or 2 weeks of sleep.


Take selfies of your soul.  Keep a journal.


Live your life from your heart.  Share from your heart and your story will touch and heal people's souls. - Melody Beattie


When depression is at its worst, I must go and find hope for myself.  It is out there.  I will find it and so will you.  Never give up!


All birds find shelter during a rain.  But eagles avoid rain by flying above the clouds.  Problems are common, but attitude makes the difference.


Canadian riot..."I am a little upset."  :)


There's a wait...everyone wants a window.  :)


Uh-oh...I feel a mold coming on.  :)






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!

  15. Dearest Linda,
    wonderful music is in my ear (the celtic Harp - aaaah, great!) and I also love some quotes and videos. My favorites are the Eagle-quote, the first video with the cop and the second one with the soooooooo sweet animals! <3

  17. So true about the difference between flowers and weeds. Many "weeds" are truly beautiful if we look at them closely. Love the JFL gag and the Canadian riot. :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. I like the one about the tree. That's good advice!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Love the Gag and the cat and goat and lots of your posters and quotes! That Canadian "riot" is a riot. It could say he was a Swede, too. :))

    ReplyDelete
  20. That silly gag was so funny! We are like little kids sometimes. Loved the cat and the goat video, and the beautiful Celtic music. Wonderful collection. Thank you, Linda!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I love your quotes today, Linda...and that amazing picture of the eagle!

  25. Ha ha Linda! Well I had to have a giggle at your Canadian rioter. You guys are so laid back that you're just falling over. Thanks for the tip on how to tell a weed from flower, I've often thought that there's no difference.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I always enjoy your videos and wise words but the one with the Canadian riot made me laugh out loud. It reminds me of the joke about an Englishman who politely waited in a long line to make a call, only to call the fire brigade as his car was on fire.

  27. Linda, I really liked to hear the Celtic music today. It was peaceful and relaxing. Such delightful quotes on here this morning. The "Protect" quote was very nice, and "Be Like A Tree" made me smile. I have always been fascinated with the trees. They bring us shelter and provide shade when we need it. If only they could talk, they would tell us interesting stories. Thank you always for the inspiring words, my friend.

    Have a blessed weekend.

  35. After a far too busy week, here I am to enjoy your always so lovely work, at least today !
    Well, how not to be amazed by the video of the cute Rescued Cat which Takes Care of Rescued Goat, the quote, you know, are all so unique, I do appreciate them all and also love the drawing of Candy Waters so much (before graduating and becoming a teacher I got my degree as an educator of children and know very well this kind of problems, I've worked quite a lot with these wonderful children and adults, her painting is truly fabulous, so meaningful and expressive ! )
    Thank you my darling Linda for this gorgeous post which blessed my heart,
    with heartfelt gratitude I wish you a wonderful end of the week

  41. Linda - my heart started melting when I watched the rescue kitty caring for the little goat. Just the best video friend. I always love hearing the celtic music too. This was beautiful and so peaceful. Your quotes are so inspiring too. Hope you have a blessed day.

  42. Celtic music and culture has been one of those "discoveries" in the last 20 years that has shaped my aesthetics somewhat. :-)

    Greetings from London.

  45. I love that analogy - selfies of your soul with a journal!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Linda, thank you for your comment today. It was so special and sincere. I think I keep my distance from the squirrels because they remind me of the rat family, and I have a dreadful fear of rats and mice. I see the squirrels all the time at the park where I take pictures of nature, and I think they're scared of us as well. : )
