Mental illness is a disease just like cancer or heart disease. Anxiety disorders: (panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, phobias) about 18.2% of American adults. Mood disorders: (major depressive disorder, dysthymic disorder, bipolar disorder) about 9.5% of American adults. Personality disorders: (antisocial, avoidant, and borderline personality disorders) about 9.5% of American adults. Eating disorders: (anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorders) about 4.4% of American adults. Let's replace stigma with empathy and support!
Sugar is the sociopath of foods. It acts sweet...but it's really poison.
With a little discipline and regular self-checks, you can learn to do one thing at a time. And do it better. And be happier doing it.
There are some people who always seem angry and continuously look for conflict. Walk away. The battle they are fighting is not with you, it is with themselves.
Don't allow mindless drama to stress you out. Breathe and let it go.
One of the greatest gifts is the gift of kindness...and it's very affordable!
Rudeness is the weak person's imitation of strength.
No use trying to give light to the world when you are feeling stormy inside; no one deserves your love, this very moment, more than you do.
Nature itself is the best physician. - Hippocrates

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!
Kindness is very affordable, indeed.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, dear Linda! Since I'll be busy later this morning and all day, I decided to stay up late and visit you. That gag meister's groin takes quite a beating in the various pranks he stages, doesn't it? :) I would love to visit that luxury resort on the Red Sea! I enjoyed watching the massage therapist working with dogs. They really seemed to enjoy her rubdowns. The donkey therapy is another wonderful idea. I always perk up when an animal of any type is present, and those ailing seniors came to life when the donkey made a surprise visit to their assisted living facility. Animals are wonderful and it makes me very sad when they are abused or slaughtered for sport.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much dear friend Linda!
I enjoy eating out on occasion. Luxury resorts are to die for...gorgeous. Dogs do love massages. Enjoy the rest of your week.
ReplyDeleteBonjour chère Linda,
ReplyDeleteJe ne résiste pas et je souris allègrement en regardant vos vidéos comiques !
Un joli panache de photos...
Gros bisous
Some very wise words again, Linda, thank you for some things to think about differently. Just yesterday the new flow arrived, in case you don´t know it yet maybe have a look here, I usually find some interesting, helpful articles in the (German version of the) magazine-
ReplyDeleteLovely, the videos with donkey and dogs massage!
ReplyDeleteI vote "At home", i love cookink!
Have a fine day! ☺
coucou on a encore un ciel gris , j'ai fait ma déco d'halloween
ReplyDeletebisous et belle journée
I want to stay in the Red Sea Hotel, wonderful!
ReplyDeleteTous tes posts sont des petites douceurs. Merci. Belle journée à toi
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday Linda ♡
ReplyDeleteI like the premise of this quote, I'm hoping to get to this point soon...My heart is at ease knowing that what was meant for me will never miss me, and what misses me was never meant for me. - Iman Shafi
great videos
ReplyDeleteHello Linda,
ReplyDeleteWhen I visit your blog, it's time for fun and laughing.
Your first movie is so nice. I enjoy this so much.
Sweet greetings,
Marco
I'm wondering if people in Montreal are getting wise to the gag people? I found some really helpful posters here today, and love those last couple of paintings. I've got to find someone to give me a massage, though! :)
ReplyDeleteYea for the elections! May it all goes as well here next year but I don't have much hope of that. There are some things seriously lacking in this country such as common sense, empathy, kindness, knowledge, etc.
I voted! I definitely prefer eating at home...I rarely go out actually.
ReplyDeleteLove the art by Candy Waters. I think she is very talented!
O no gag, Linda... !
ReplyDeleteVery wise words, love the dogs video. I voted at home, I am a very picky eater so I don't like to eat out.
ReplyDeleteNow I want to go to that Red Sea Hotel. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely post!

ReplyDeleteHi! The dog's video is very cool. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteune publication intéressante Linda
ReplyDeleteet la citation de Hippocrates me plaît beaucoup
greetings
Linda, where is Red Sea Hotel Grand Makadi? Also, you are correct with the fact about " don't allowing mindless drama to stress you out. Breathe and let it go." It helped me a great deal.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Wednesday my friend. See ya.

Loved those animal videos! And the Canadian standoff - that happens here in Portland, Oregon at four way stop signs (You go first. No, you first. No, you first...). You could sit there for hours. Great quotes & artwork. Thank you, Linda!
ReplyDeleteToday's poll is a hard one for me. I don't really like to cook, so we do eat out a lot. Often, though, we get carryout...the best of both worlds. :)
ReplyDeleteA Canadian standoff! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteThe dogs seem to be in bliss getting a massage.
Linda, I love home cooked food but now that there are only hubby and I, we mostly eat out.
ReplyDeleteI voted in your poll as always.
ReplyDeleteLoved the prank. He's so good at these.
Love the dog massages. That was adorable.
Loved the donkey. What a wonderful thing to do.
Have a fabulous day Linda. ☺
Fabulous choice of quotes and inspiration today (well, always, Linda). I like what you said about mental illness and sugar - All illnesses are difficult to deal with, and mental illnesses are usually not caused by the sufferer. Sugar certainly does act sweet, and is not our friend! hugs, de
ReplyDeletekindness is so immportant, enjoy your Wednesday Linda

Thank you Linda for this wonderful post. I particularly like this: One of the greatest gifts is the gift of kindness...and it's very affordable! Best regards Anneli
ReplyDeleteI both enjoy eating put and eating at home. It's true, whatever is meant to be will come and never miss us. Hopefully.
ReplyDeleteMerci pour ce beau partage chère Linda! Bise et bonne soirée toute douce!
ReplyDeletei like your latest poll, and i find it fascinating that many of your readers choose to enjoy their meals at home ... on second thought, i'd probably feel the same way ... if only i could cook! heheh :)
ReplyDeleteit is again so varied and interesting.
ReplyDeleteThank you :-)
Ha ha, you Canadians are such a polite bunch. I love that cartoon. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi! Linda, what a glorious day! Just came by to see how you are doing! It was raining yesterday but today the sun is shining!
ReplyDeleteGreat videos and quotes. I enjoyed them all. Madeline
ReplyDeleteI prefer eating at home because my hubby is a great cook.
ReplyDeleteI like the sugar one
ReplyDeleteHi Linda,

Yes, gotta watch our sugar intake...including all the hidden sugars.
