One of the greatest gifts you can give someone is thanking them for being part of your life.
Sometimes it's better to just remain silent and smile.
A relaxing peaceful evening at home is one of life's greatest pleasures.
2017 - The best is yet to come.
People come and go in life, but the right ones will always stay!
My favorite colors of the season...red and white. :)
It's okay, sometimes we just need a little boost. :)
The only things you can take with you when you leave this world are the things you've packed inside your heart. - Susan Gale
A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter is not a nice person.
Blessed are the weird people: poets, misfits, writers, mystics, painters, troubadours for they teach us to see the world through different eyes. - Jacob Nordby
Peace cannot be kept by force, it can only be achieved by understanding. - Albert Einstein
Be tolerant of those who are lost on their path. Ignorance, conceit, anger, jealousy and greed stem from a lost soul.
May the magic of the season fill your heart with joy.
Sprinkle a little love into someone's heart today! Remember, there's no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end...
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!
Lovely quotes! I love a peaceful evening relaxing at home and I fully agree that remaining silent and just smile is better and safer too!
ReplyDeleteI agree that sometimes it's better to just remain silent and smile!! especially if you hv nothing good to say.. ahahah
ReplyDeleteCara Linda, buona Epifania cara amica con un abbraccio e un sorriso:-)
ReplyDeleteTomaso
I love the saying with the waiter. It is so true.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day
Lovely quotes! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, hope this finds you well and happy! I was fascinated to see the video of the man who loves to live in 1946. He has a unique approach to everything. (Good to see he has a modern fridge though!).
ReplyDeleteHe's quite right, the world does move too fast these days.
Many thanks for finding all these gems. Cheers now, Sue :D) xx
Hi Linda, Laurel and Hardy were really great fun. I wish you a nice Friday.

Hello, Linda! Wonderful quotes and inspiring words. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteBlessed are the weird people indeed!
ReplyDeletenice quotes!
ReplyDeleteLinda you always find great quotes, very uplifting, Thank You for sharing 👍
ReplyDeleteune belle publication Linda
ReplyDelete"Pansy Cat Painting" a ma préférence
greetings
That Einstein quote particularly speaks to me!
ReplyDeleteI love all the 40s music. I especially love the big ban era. I listen to that music all the time. I'm not sure I'd want to live in a 40s home, but he's happy and that's what counts.
ReplyDeleteLove the 5 fun crafts for kitties.
Have a fabulous day my friend. ♥♥♥
Linda, Weird but somewhat charming...that man who is living back in 1946. I did like the fact that he cheated a little and had a small fridge. Loved the cat crafts...the 'lap bed' was really creative. Our rescue cat loves his big ball of jute twine and any bags or boxes he can get into.
ReplyDeleteAs for sayings...without actually saying anything negative to someone...down here in the south, the favorite is "Well bless his/her/their heart". It can be a positive message or the exact opposite depending on how its said. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
I love Marmalade and Cole! Their cat dad has some great DIY ideas...especially the cardboard scratcher! Guess it's time I purchase a glue gun...have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteOnce again you have found some great quotes, a real delight.
ReplyDeleteInteresting videos once again. Love all the quotes. Have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend. Madeline
ReplyDeleteWonderful qoutes and videos, dearest Linda - and I LOVE the ideas for cats and their "owners". The black and red cats in the movie look a bit like my cats Nina (black) and Maxwell (red - but without the white "socks") :-))
ReplyDeleteHappy new year, my dear and thank you for your nice wishes!!!
Hugs, Traude

A relaxing peaceful evening at home is one of life's greatest pleasures... I agree!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the remainder of Friday and good wishes for the coming weekend
All the best Jan
As always - wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHello Linda! Oh that 40s video is neat. Very fun! I adore things like that, the 40s was just such a neat time in many ways. Our country had a healthy fear of God and things were so much more wholesome then.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to view the art video of the pastel cat, drawing and such can be very relaxing. We should create for ten minutes a day I recently read. (good idea i think!) : )
Great quotes, love the artist and writer one. *smile* Yes, people do view deep thinkers as such. Too bad for them! Ha!
You take care now, hope you are having a wonderful and uplifting New year.
Blessings!
Lots of great stuff today! Thanks again for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHi. Cats are so cute. Greetings.
ReplyDeleteToujours tellement plaisant chez toi douce Linda! Bise, bonne soirée toute douce!
ReplyDelete'May the magic of the season fill your heart with joy' too, Linda !
ReplyDeleteHe did a good job decorating it like the 40s
ReplyDeleteLove the emphasis on the 40s - great music, good values, era of the Greatest Generation. And loved everything else, of course (especially the lap for the cats). Thanks, Linda!
ReplyDeletevery complete post you give always dear .
ReplyDeleteloved the cat lap most though liked the all .
power of positivity overwhelmed me !
wishing you a very Happy new year my friend.
Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great year, Linda!!
'May the magic of the season...' is very good quote :)

Such an amazing collection, as always, Linda.
ReplyDeleteTwo quotes really spoke to me...the "peace" one, and "Lost Soul"...both are so important to us in these troubled times, aren't they?!
Have a Fabulous New Year, my dear Friend...and Lots of Love & Hugs xoxoxo
J'aime aussi les couleurs rouge et blanc.
ReplyDeleteBonne et heureuse année aussi, Linda.
Bisous
Wise words, Linda:Peace cannot be kept by force, it can only be achieved by understanding. I agree!
ReplyDeleteHi, Linda! I love your sentiment about "weird people" seeing the world through different eyes! Makes me smile delightedly and gratefully. xo
ReplyDeleteI like the quote about 2017: the best is yet to come. Is will save that. Happy weekend Linda,
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! What a great collection of posters for the new year ... very appropriate. Love the 1946 video. I have good memories of 1946. I was in the 6th grade in Los Angeles and spent most of my spare time playing "cops and robbers" with my friends or riding me bike around the city. I had my own radio and listened mostly to country music. No TV or video games. Every afternoon I delivered the "Hollywood Citizen News" to about 100 subscribers. A year late I was delivering the "Los Angeles Times" which was a much better deal as I didn't have to go door to door collecting my money! The war was over and the future bright.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your kind words and I appreciate greatly that you continue to check in on me on L & L Photography!
Los vídeos de la pintura del gato, de los útiles para los gatos y el Luarel y Hardy muy bonitos.
ReplyDeleteAlgunas citas dicen grandes verdades.
Saludos.
As ever Linda, great quotes all round. Sometimes it's better to just remain silent and smile though is one that sticks in my mind. I wish I could always remember that, sometimes I just open my mouth when I know I should keep it shut and smile!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great Sunday and keep warm, Diane
LOL!!! Laurel and Hardy! So funny. And I love receiving Christmas cards, too bad they are going out of style.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda! Such a great selection today! My favorite is the "Be Tolerant.." quote, me need much more of that these days... Enjoy the new week ahead! Diane
ReplyDeleteHello Linda, It's been another long time since I've visited. I hope 2017 will be a year of more writing and blog reading for me because I do miss it!
ReplyDeleteYour videos are quirky and funny. The first one - strangely adorable. And good sentiments from all the quotes. I actually saved one into my computer's library.
Happy New Year!
I couldn't agree more - gratefulness - thanking someone for being part of your life - is so important in being happy.
ReplyDeleteThe video of projects for cats was really interesting. I'm amazed at the creativity of some people.
ReplyDeleteGood evening dear Linda,
ReplyDeleteIt has been much too long since I have visited. Thank you for coming over to visit and leaving such a kind note.
I would also like to thank you for all your beautiful and uplifting post this past year. Your blog is such a peaceful place to visit. I always come away with a smile.
Happy New Year
blessings,
Penny
I was expecting the cat crafts to use cat fur! 😂
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what happened to my original comment...Loved the cat vid and the one of the guy re-creating 1940's life. I wonder if he appreciate the irony of being on youtube given his take on technology...I've seen a woman do the same as him, also from England...they should meet...Enjoy your Sunday.
ReplyDeleteTout est si joli dans ce billet !
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup pour ces jolies publications. Bon dimanche Linda
Best quotes ever Linda! Enjoy this cold but beautiful day!!
ReplyDeleteSo much wisdom in these little posts!
ReplyDeleteNice pic...
ReplyDeleteI love the craft ideas for kitty servants! The lap bed is brilliant! :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful post...wonderful quotes! Keep warm on this very chilly day!
ReplyDeleteHei Linda. Hieno valikoima tänään Kiitos Hyvää tammikuun jatkoa
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely quotes. More peace and tolerance really would make this troubled world a better place. XX
ReplyDeleteLovely collection of quotes! Happy new year :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year LInda and thank you for all the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThankyou Linda!!
ReplyDelete"Blessed are the weird people!" Yes :)
Loved your post today, as always!! I hope you've been having a great weekend. I hope you don't mind, but I read your comment on Ygraine's blog. Your poor mom, losing so many children!! You are a true blessing Linda!! A treasure! Big Hugs!
Hi dear Stacy! I don't mind at all, and thank you so much for caring enough to read what I had to say. You are such a sweet soul. :) Big hugs.
DeleteThe "Be tolerant" quote is so true!
ReplyDeleteThe first video of the guy living in the 1940s style reminds me strongly of the old Sparks song with its clever lyrics and funny chorus. "It ain't 1918 for us or for you... if we can't enjoy it then neither should you."
ReplyDeleteAs always a great variety of subjects.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Great
ReplyDeleteAnother of your fun post packed with great quotes and interesting videos. I really enjoyed the first one about the fellow living as if in the 1940s. I saw one about a lady living as if still in the 1930s - eccentric people!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! Happy New Year my friend!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen any Laurel and Hardy in so long, it was fun to see the clip here. (What awful Christmas cards they were!)
I agree that 2017 will be the best yet, so let's ride through it with joy!
Blessings,
Ceil
I'm thinking that 2017 is going to be a good year, dear Linda! I'm quite happy to live in 2017 and not in 1946, thank you! I was fascinated by the tree stump scratcher and other crafts for kitties. If I could hang the scratcher on the wall it might help when I get a pesky itch between my shoulders. Anyone who is unkind to a waiter is not someone I want to be around! Thanks for sharing these things today!
ReplyDeleteA relaxing peaceful evening at home is one of life's greatest pleasures - this is so true.
ReplyDeleteOne of the greatest gifts you can give someone is thanking them for being part of your life.
ReplyDeleteThank you for being part of mine..even if it's an online one, Linda x
