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.

Sometimes the only blessing you need to count is your heartbeat.


There is always hope.  The light is always there.  Let it shine!


Invite every part of your body to rest in stillness for a moment.  Free of the story in the head of what the body should look like, allow your body to be exactly as it is right now.  Relax all your muscles, let go completely.


Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend. - Martin Luther King


Yes, it's going to be O.K.  It will all work out...you will make it through this.


Reminder...words are who someone wants to be. Actions are who they truly are.


Appreciate good, loving people.  They're hard to come by.


Love those who will love you when you have nothing to offer but your company.


A message from your future self:  Psssst...it will all be okay.  Breathe.  Enjoy this quirky journey of a life you are on.


Why feel blue when there's so many other colours you can feel.


What is achievable in your life is based upon the beliefs you tell yourself.


Forgiveness is making the choice not to get all muddied up in our offender's mud.






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!

  38. Hello, Linda! I hope you enjoyed a week of personal joy. Your messages always touch my heart. Sometimes, I need someone to say, "it's ok that you are happy as things are right now." So many of my friends are tied up into feeling guilty about a number of things that aren't really their faults at all, but the imposition of others demanding more than my friends can give!

    Your Andy Griffith video linked to an interesting Nat Geo 44 minute segment on the misunderstood sharks flourishing around Sable Island. VERY interesting, and an evolution in progress.

    Like many of today's reminders, I often have to say, "this, too, shall pass" when the pain is unbearable. Oddly, it is bearable, and it surprises me how much more I can tolerate with each exacerbation, although it is tiring, and sometimes I wonder if I'm going to be able to get up to reach the powder room. And then other times, such as this week, it is just a little pain (in contrast to the bad days), and I am able to do so much more. I am grateful for the tiniest of things I can do around the house, even if it seems to be nothing to the average person.

    So thank you, my Canadian friend, for always inspiring me. I may not always leave comments, but ALWAYS, your posts write comments upon my heart.

  45. The cat olympics are just adorable! Reminds me of our cat, who is now living with my father due to my allergies :( Lovely and inspirational quotes as always here :)

  46. I got such a laugh out of the Cat Olympics ~ I guess I'm going through Olympics withdrawal, Linda! I needed a good laugh because I've been busy with political volunteering work for an event a few of us have put together for Saturday morning. It looks like it's going to be pretty successful. The Reitman's commercials are really funny ~ I don't remember them on tv, so maybe they aired in Canada after I emigrated to the USA. And I love the kitty art that follows inspiration quote after inspiration quote. I hope you are having a good week, Linda! Sending you a big hug and lots of love!
