Don't give up just because you don't see immediate results. Know that each positive choice you make is affecting you in hidden ways - and will add up to big change over time.
When you become calm and serene on the inside, the world becomes more calm and serene on the outside.
Beauty is nothing without brains and heart.
May that space between where you are right now and where you want to be and go...be inspiring!

Hi Linda, I love the duck and chicken videos. So heartwarming to see that even duck and chicken can make great friends. Have a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteThe duck waiting for the little boy is just adorable as is the chicken! I’m afraid I went to school ‘in the old days’ and remember much of what the presenter was talking about – gosh, I’m getting old! Thank you for so many lovely things this morning Linda, have a perfect week. x
ReplyDeletePS. I forgot to say, your blog gets a mention on my blog today. x

ReplyDeletewonderful post, happiness
ReplyDeleteThe chicken and the little boy are adorable! :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful May, dear Linda!

ReplyDeleteI find it so interesting that "dumb" animals are so much smarter than we think they are and that they love and hate and need affection and consideration just like we do. And they will respond and bond with human animals (who might just be the dumbest of all)! Love the Salmansohn posters - but you knew that! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that chickens and ducks could form such attachments to humans. Those two videos were enlightening. I enjoyed both of the Peadoodles, too.
ReplyDeleteAwww on the duck and the boy. That was so precious.
ReplyDeleteI also loved the hug between the boy and the chicken. So cute.
I linked this post to Awww Mondays.
Have a fabulous day, Linda. Big hugs. ♥♥♥
Your video of the kid hugging the chicken is heartwarming!
ReplyDeleteCute videos and wonderful quotes. Have a blessed day and a wonderful month of May. Madeline

That old carnation factory reel was hilarious! That way the announcer spoke...too funny!
ReplyDeletethanks for the wonderful inspiration! catchatwithcarenandcody
ReplyDeleteLinda, Love the duck and chicken that love their children! Animals are amazing... My high school was a college prep all boys boarding & day student facility in Niagara Falls, NY. We wore a coat and tie to class and much of the rest of the time as well. For meals we were assigned to a table with one of the teachers to keep us under control. When I was in the 3rd grade, our teacher, Mrs. Adams, used to whack me with a ping pong paddle when I was late to school. Another kid and I had the habit of stopping at a donut shop/bakery on the way to school and we'd lose track of the time. My 3 favorite sayings are 1) You can't fix stupid; 2) If you can't change it, don't worry about it, and: 3) Life is short...enjoy every day! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteDear Linda - first the crow bar made me smile...then the video of the Duck watching for his friend was adorable. My how school has changed. Sometimes it is nice to visit the past and remember chalk dust and old wooden desks and catch the smell of well loved books. Fortunately when I was in school we got to have boys and girls in the same room. Not sure when we were allowed to wear jeans to school but I think when I became a junior in high school the dress code changed. Anyway had fun visiting you dear friend. Hope you have a delightful week. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteNature is painting for us, day after day, pictures of infinite beauty. So very true and I appreciate it every day of my life. Since having a good camera I see so much more beauty than I did before, blogging has been good for me :-) Have a great week Linda, Diane

Crow bar! Heeheehee! We have plenty of crows here, and i do enjoy watching their antics, but i do believe they are sober.
ReplyDeleteKids and animals - there's nothing cuter!
ReplyDeleteTime sure has changed - schools are no longer like what they used to be, the students and the teachers are very different too.
ReplyDeleteThe boy and the chicken (& the duck, too) just made my day! Another wonderful post. Thank you, dear Linda!!

I don't like to compare myself with anybody. - Don Rickles <--- Me too, Linda. I like doing my own thing at my own pace. xx
ReplyDeleteDear Linda - It’s nice to be welcomed back by a duck. “Don't give up just because you don't see immediate results. Know that each positive choice you make is affecting you in hidden ways - and will add up to big change over time.” First the unique image caught me and then I was convinced by the words.

Looks very interesting) Thanks for the great post!
ReplyDeleteThe video of chickin and a kid hugging is just so sweet!
ReplyDeleteHappy month of May, Linda!
Great choices as always☺
ReplyDeleteLove the last two!
ReplyDeleteThe school one took me back. We used to have to sit with our hands clasped behind our heads for ages if anyone asked a question without putting a hand up first and getting a wooden blackboard duster flung at you or a slap round the ear was pretty common. One unlucky pupil got six of the belt every day for a week for not doing his homework in my class. Happy days...
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda!!! I hope your week has been going well! We are getting so much rain here!! Loved your post! Crow bar! LOL! Big Hugs!
