No storm lasts forever. Better days are coming.
Don't let the fear of your challenges overwhelm you. Face towards your challenges head on. You're stronger than you realize. Plus your challenges will help you to strengthen your emotional muscles in new, exciting ways.
My favorite childhood memory is not paying bills. :)
Stop. Breathe. Cry if you must. Head up. Stay strong. Fake a smile. Feel the smile. Move on.
The worst kind of sad is not being able to explain why.
Sometimes when bad things happen, we learn to appreciate the good things in a whole new light.
The best apology is changed behavior.
I appreciate people who are honest in a warmly direct way. There's less hurt, stress and surprise battles to be fought. And more communication, understanding and peace of mind.
I wish more people would understand how much their words affect others.
Silently send people love as you go through your day! Friends, strangers, loved ones! Beam them with blessings!
When a child learns to walk and falls down 50 times, he never thinks to himself, "Maybe this isn't for me."
Appreciate those who don't give up on you.
Nothing in the world can bother you as much as your own mind. Others may seem to bother you, but it's not others. It's your own mind.
Your mantra for whatever happens: persist.
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!
Good Morning, Linda.
ReplyDeleteNot paying bills was a great part of being a kid!--and so was not knowing anyone's politics, or the depressing state of the environment or any of the other "grownup" things. I want to go back!!!
Have a great weekend
A beautiful video of the Elephants, they love water.
ReplyDeleteWonderful videos, Linda! It's amazing to see what animals can do!
ReplyDeleteI'm a nostalgic type of person. So whatever starts with "world's first...." appeals to me.
ReplyDeleteCleaning windows of a high tower - what a frightful job!These cleaners deserve a medal for courage in addition to a fat fee.
Hello Linda,
ReplyDeleteGreat videos...I especially loved the parrot...what a great way to start the day.
Big hug

Hello Linda, wonderful videos. I always enjoy the critters. The elephants, parrot and horses are all wonderful. Thanks for sharing, great post. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, you selected wonderful videos and quotes. I enjoyed the therapy horses at the airport. I do not like flying, something like that would be great at the Toronto Airport! The parrot was very sweet too.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend!

I enjoyed all the videos today. Parrots and elephants are fascinating. My knees got weak watching those window washers. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend Linda!
ReplyDeleteQuite a parrot!
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend!
Well, dear Linda, you hit the jackpot today. I loved the videos - but then I love animals; they make life so much more enjoyable. The mini-horses are beautiful and kind. That parrot is too funny...that's what my kitty likes to do. And we've come a long way in terms of telephones. It wasn't that long ago that car phones where almost as big as this box the women are carrying! Now the window washing - forget it. I have a hard time even watching the video. My "fear of heights" has increased since I've gotten older. Watching those guys turns my stomach, literally. Can't imagine anyone doing that! Finally, thank you for the Salmansohn posters...so many speak to me and my concerns and feelings.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, everything in this post was much appreciated and I thank you for such a perfect closure for the week. I hope you have a super weekend filled with joy and love and lots of fun!
'Window Cleaners'... scary, Linda !
ReplyDeleteAwww, on the elephant, mini horse and the parrot. Yikes on the window washers. I just couldn't do that job.
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful getting an email from you the other day. Made me smile.
Have a fabulous day and weekend, Linda. Big hugs. ♥♥♥
What a delight to visit today and see the elephants, I can only dream of been so close t such a majestic animal.
ReplyDeleteWindow washing on a skyscraper is not for me, too scary being that high up. The parrot and mini horse were nice videos and the Salmansohn quotes were thought provoking. Thanks for sharing all these and have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove the animals video. Window cleaners have a scary job! Have a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteSmokey is so adorable! She looks so happy and comfy in her human's arms :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you for today's inspiration!
ReplyDeleteHave a really good weekend
Oh my, that Grey Parrott, I couldn't believe my eyes .. and the Elephant ... well, it's always such a delight to visit you here, darling Linda, blessed be !
ReplyDeleteWishing you the most lovely weekend ahead,
I'm sending all my love to you
XOXO Dany
the childhood memory one is hilarious! Have a great day!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute parrot!
ReplyDeleteI really liked the video of African Gray Parrot Acting Like a Baby.
ReplyDeleteI did not think that windows were being laminated like in Window Cleaners on the Empire State Building 1938 brrrr ......... terribly just.
The elephant's video is beautiful. To get to know one of the elephants close by is a gift. Beautiful movies and lyrics Linda :-)
My new office laptop has crashed so many times in the last few days, that I feel like a baby trying to walk! It's going to work out; just having a little patience and some laughter works wonders.
ReplyDeleteWonderful videos. Great quotes. Have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend. Madeline
ReplyDeleteHi. Parrot video is wonderful. Thanks for the wonderful blog.
ReplyDeleteLinda, We have 2 or 3 mini horse farms around here in East Tennessee. They are so sweet! Wireless phone...what's that? Just kidding but I don't carry a cell phone. I had to be in contact/available all the time in my work life and now I just don't like phones. The window cleaners...no way they'd be allowed to clean windows like that any more! Elephants...love them! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely post that makes me smile. Oh I do want one of those mini horses and I can't even see the video :-(
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend Diane
Those window cleaners! A job I could not do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for today's collection of inspiration!
ReplyDeleteNot paying bills was a good thing. All of these speak to me.
ReplyDeleteNot paying bills is always nice to think about.😊
ReplyDeleteAs always, a cornucopia of positive goodies here.
Thanks for all the positive energy.🌞🌼
When a child learns to walk and falls down 50 times, he never thinks to himself, "Maybe this isn't for me." - So true :)).
ReplyDeleteAnd, wonderful video of those little horses, lovely animals!
Have a happy weekend, Linda! Greetings :).
Les petits chevaux sont bien mignons.
ReplyDeleteBon samedi, Linda.
Mini horses are the cutest☺
ReplyDeleteWell Hello Linda! Happy Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThe animal videos look so cute, and I will definitely be back to see them! As you know, our bandwidth is a problem. Just the first still glimpse of those videos though, so adorable. : )
Love the quotes, very good food for thought. The green one with the artwork with the bird is so sweet I think. It's very true as well. It reminds me of a recent Glenn Ford, Geraldine Page movie we recently saw, 'Dear Heart'. Geraldine Page plays a very sweet lady who does just as that little bird. The movie is a bit 50s, 60s racie-ish in a couple of spots so I can't recommend fully but as a whole is delightful.
I hope you are doing well, have a super weekend doing things that you like to do.
Bless you Linda! : )
Ohh boy those videos are soo nice and cute))Specially like those old ones..the one with the cellephoen and cleaning in 1938 !I wish you a happy weekend Linda
ReplyDeleteHugs from me :))
How beautiful !!!! I liked the first two videos !!!! Very cool !!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend !!!!

Los vídeos muy simpáticos en especial el del loro.
ReplyDeleteSobre tu pensamiento primero aquí tenemos uno muy parecido que dice "No hay mal que cien años dure".
Saludos.
I didn't realise mobile phone technology went that far back in time. Great video with the wired up umbrella.
ReplyDeleteMy husband needs some of this therapy. He's a nervous flyer.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff today Linda. I loved the parrot especially and then started to watch the window cleaners. Then I had to stop - it's scary just watching it.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I liked 'Don't let the fear of your challenges overwhelm you. Face towards your challenges head on.'- very wise! The video 'Mini horses' is nice. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThose are cute horses, aren't they! :-)
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
Lovely videos of animals... and wise quotes, as always.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Sunday, dearest Linda, and a sunny and cheerful new month! <3
No storms last forever. Yes true. Just need to get over the hard part
ReplyDeleteThese are great Linda. Loved the videos but will have to come back for the wise words. Still in California with my sister-in-law and just been asked if I am ready by hubby :)
ReplyDeleteHi Linda,
ReplyDeleteGreat videos and great quotes.
Have a nice week.
Best regards
Great collection as always Linda. The last poster "persist" has a great meaning right now in our current political climate,.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos and resonating quotes!
ReplyDeleteAfrican Grey parrots are like babies, sometimes.
Have a Happy Day, Linda!
Peace :)
"I wish more people would understand how much their words affect others." Indeed! Sometimes it is not what they say but how they say it. Everyone should try to be more sensitive to the feelings of others.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda! I hope you're having a great weekend! That window cleaning video made me dizzy! LOL! Love the quotes about paying the bills and when a child learns how to walk! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThat grey parrot is so lovely!!!
ReplyDeleteHis feathers around neck are beautiful!
