Say less and mean more.


Wanted:  More peace in the world please.  Reward shared with everyone!


You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice. - Bob Marley


You don't have to figure out how to solve all your problems right now.  Just figure out what you can do to feel better in this moment.


Resentment is heavy to carry around.  Let it go.


I'm a kindness ninja!


Did you know?  Spaying or neutering your cat:
Avoids surprise litters
Prevents some cancers
Improves behavior


Tread softly, breathe peacefully, laugh hysterically. - Nelson Mandela


Keep some room in your heart for the unimaginable. - Mary Oliver


When you look in the mirror, try to look beyond the story you tell yourself about yourself, and behold a being whose purity is eternal.


Sometimes you just got to stay silent because no words can explain what's going on in your mind and heart.


Share your smile with the world.  It's a symbol of friendship and peace. - Christie Brinkley


Pea in the shower.  :)


Just breathe...and trust that sometimes something needs to crack before something new can be born.


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!

  1. Hi Linda, thank you for the wonderful videos and meaningful quotes to start a new day. I identify with the quote on staying silent when we couldn't find words to explain what is going on in my mind and heart. A genuine smile can really melt the ice and brings cheer to someone who needs it. Have a beautiful day!

  7. Hello Linda, I was in need of a Monday warm up today, thank you for all the delights you found for us. I really enjoyed the first two videos of the cats, and the Candid Camera Classic made me laugh out loud. That poor little dog was so thin, thank goodness for the fishermen. Have a lovely week, Barbara

    Wanted: More peace in the world please. Reward shared with everyone! If only it was that easy, too many greedy people in the world want things they cannot have!


    Tread softly, breathe peacefully, laugh hysterically. - Nelson Mandela What a great man he was once he became president. He was loved by all and really made it the day he put on No 6 rugby shirt and joined the South African team the day they one the world cup.

  11. Say less and mean more. I've been trying to be mindful of this excellent advice recently. I tend to talk too much at times and later regret saying more than I needed to.

    Your posts are always so special, thank you!🌞💟😂

  21. You just warmed up a chilly morning here in Eugene, Linda. I'm still teary (happy tears) after watching the blind young man experiencing Quebec. What an incredible video! It will stay with me for a long time.

    Have a wonderful week, Linda. BIG hugs to you!!!

  28. Happy Monday Linda! Oh that poor dog, but alas the loving fisherman rescues the poor creature! I loved the way he just wrapped the rope around him and hoisted him up!

    Our bandwidth is dwindling so that equals sloooowww internet so I will have to come back and see the rest! : )

    Love the quote on saying less. ...And the kindness ninja. Yes!

    You take care now and have a fantastic week! Blessings!

  32. Liked the cat videos and a brave person that swam out to rescue the stranded dog.

  33. Linda, As far as our cat is concerned, this house is his temple and we are his servants and worshippers... This Japanese island reminds me of Tashirojima...or "Cat Island" off the coast of Japan. Cats outnumber people by 6 to 1 and its a tourist destination. Smart cat on the Tokyo subway too! Wonder how that dog got stuck on an ice flow. He was smart enough not to try to swim to shore as he would have drowned in the icy water. Nice Quebec tourism video with the blind guy... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
