You are never too old to set another goal or a dream.
The fear I'm feeling in anticipation actually tells me I'm asking the right questions and I'm on the right track.
Please watch your heart by making sure it doesn't absorb the judgments and negativity of those who don't appreciate you.
If you carry the bricks from your past relationship, you'll end up building the same house.
Please don't judge people. You don't know what it took someone to get out of bed, look and feel as presentable as possible and face the day. You never truly know the daily struggles of others.
The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things. - Henry Ward Beecher
I still remember the days I prayed for the things I have now.
Don't just do what you can to forgive the person who hurt you, forgive yourself too. Stop blaming yourself for not being enough. Stop blaming yourself for your inability to predict pain. Learn what you can and leave the pain behind.
No bird can fly without opening its wings. And no one can love without opening their heart.

ReplyDeleteGood morning, dear Linda!
ReplyDeleteI laughed at the virtual boxing game fail. The stuntman/security guard took a nasty tumble each time and the prank victims were horrified. The red-lipped batfish is one of the strangest sea creatures I have ever seen. He looks like he's wearing red lipstick and wagging his tail! I also enjoyed watching the orange fish mimicking a harmless sponge and using a lure line to catch its prey. Before we were married, Mrs Shady often attended folk dancing classes with our niece. I will show her the video of the German dancers. It amazed me to watch that tutorial on gift wrapping. I'm afraid the presents I wrap rarely turn out that well. I enjoyed watching the little mole like creature the Tenrec but I needed to turn off the loud piano music. I wish the video was accompanied by natural sound and not music.
Thank you, dear friend Linda!
wow, i've never heard of Waldegger before! very cool! :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed all the videos. Those fish are very different to anything I've seen.
ReplyDeleteI loved watching Rebecca tips how to make gift wrapping. And couldn't agree more with this great quote "The art of being happy lies in the power of...."Happy monday ;-))
ReplyDeletewow, interesting fish!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful selection again Linda. Always fun to visit. Thank you my friend and have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteSeems strange watching the lady wrap a gift with a fire going and warm clothes on.

ReplyDeleteYes, "judge not lest you yourself be judged."
ReplyDeleteThe Red-lipped Batfish is so bizarre!
ReplyDeleteA nice little animal in Lowland Streaked Tenrec. I wish you a very good week Linda.
ReplyDeleteThere is some great inspiration here. I love the one about the building the same house by carrying bricks from past relationships. So true... Happy Monday sweet Linda :-)

ReplyDeleteLovely choices this week Linda, I always leave your blog with a smile on my face, thank you. I will be away from my blog for a few weeks but will catch up with you again next year. Barbara.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I can take some lessons from the Christmas gift wrapping. I've gone to using and reusing those wonderful bags with the tissue.
ReplyDeleteLove the artwork and quotes you've posted today.
ReplyDeleteBwahahahahahahaha on the gag. That would be horrific. I love all the gags.
ReplyDeleteThe Tenrec was so cute. I linked you to Awww Mondays.
Have a fabulous day Linda. I hope you're feeling better. ☺
Very interesting videos, enjoyed each and every one of them. All the quotes were great. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeletehave a great week, love you.
ReplyDeleteThe woman in the gift wrapping video needs some close-ups! Seriously--that's definitely a case when a camera person with some zooming skill would have come in handy!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!

It's hard to transform someone through love at the beginning, but love drives out fear and everything. :) so, someday, everything will fall into its place.
ReplyDeleteThat folk dance reminds me of when we learned "bush dancing" as a child in school. I bet they don't do that anymore in the curriculum.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing collection of inspiring words. A warm feel-good post for me. Made me smile:-)
ReplyDeleteHi! I enjoyed your red lipped Batfish video. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI've never even heard of a tenrec before, so that was an interesting video for me. Loved the "Food for Thought" poster. :)
ReplyDeleteThe cat art in the last one appeals to me.
ReplyDeleteOooh the absorbing judgements one hit me close to home and that tenrec is so cool!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved that quote about the art of being happy ... In common things. I believe n that.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteMERCI pour ce partage Linda !
Bises et bonne soirée
What an interesting creature - have never heard of it. And that book sounds adorable.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week Linda!
