Rainbows remind us that even after the darkest clouds and the fiercest winds there is still beauty.
You know all those things you've always wanted to do? You should go do them.
Your struggle is part of your story.
I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples. - Mother Teresa
We rise by lifting others.
Sometimes you have to leap first to discover that you always had wings!
You are precious...even if your halo's a little crooked. :)
Love is the energizing elixir of the universe, the cause and effect of all harmonies. - Rumi
Don't wait for inspiration. Be the inspiration. - Nancy Rainwater
If you are firmly grounded in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness and concentration. - Thich Nhat Hanh
Every day is a new chance to be our very best. - Bryan Elliott
Distract the monkey mind from constantly giving you opinions, (judging things, comparing, complaining). Ask the monkey mind for a moment, to watch your breath. It will calm it down and it will bring you back to the present moment.
Take it one step at a time, day by day, and be grateful for all the moments in between.
The more we genuinely care about others, the greater our own happiness and inner peace. - Allan Lokos
Interesting and beautiful post, Linda. Have a nice weekend :).
ReplyDeleteHow cute video about the dog and the baby!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend, Linda!
At a typewriter, my fingers were often between the keys .... hahahaha!
ReplyDelete"Don't wait for inspiration. Be the inspiration."
ReplyDeleteThis made me think of you, Linda. Thank you for inspiring us! ♥
@Hope there were 'helpers', Linda, yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI believe this to be true, Linda :) ---> The more we genuinely care about others, the greater our own happiness and inner peace. - Allan Lokos
ReplyDeleteThe shy timid dog finally has a loving and gentle family. Probably it has been through a bad time that caused it to be so shy and timid. Have a beautiful day, Linda!
ReplyDeleteKids and dogs are such a wonderful team! There are some lovely videos on the net on this subject.
ReplyDelete'watch your breath' is a great advice. Good breathing does a lot to our relaxation.
Animals and babies - it's a winner every time. xo
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, lovely videos. Gigi the dog and the baby were so sweet! I remember this IBM typewriters. I didn't realize you could change the balls to get a different type of lettering.
ReplyDeleteLove the quote" We rise by lifting others" So true.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Bellissimo il video della macchina d scrivere
ReplyDeleteHello, Linda! I love the cute shy dog video. I am so glad the parrots were rescued from the fire too. Great post. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteNice quotes!
ReplyDeleteThe baby and dog video was so cute. And now I'm feeling very "vintage" since I remember when the IBM Selectric came onto the scene. I used them in some of my jobs. They were a marvel.
ReplyDeleteI have a typewriter like that, Olympia, but nobody sells the ribbon anymore these days. :(
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda. I needed to know that I'm OK even if my halo is a little crooked! :) And I think that business about "rising" by helping others is right on. I remember when those Selectric typewriters came out - they were wonderful as I was typing in my job and in school. Maybe I'll try "white noise" tonight to see if that helps me sleep. Sometimes sleeping can be difficult, especially as one gets older.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great day and a super weekend!

ReplyDeletehave a nice weekend
Wishing you a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that the dog found such a wonderful home with patient and understanding humans. A ventilator is indeed perfect to make white noise. I sleep better when the fan is running. Great videos and quotes, Linda!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy weekend!

ReplyDeleteVery good idea. Worth to implement.
Un gros merci pour ce beau partage chère Linda, c'est magnifique! Bise, bonne soirée toute douce!
ReplyDeleteHello Linda - can you believe it's Friday again! These weeks go by so quickly.
ReplyDeleteExcellent choices again for us.
I loved the baby and dog video and found the white noise video very interesting too.
Especially liked the Mother Teresa quote.
Sending my good wishes ...
All the best Jan
Un bel arc-en-ciel.
ReplyDeleteGros bisous
Cute and interesting videos dear Linda!
ReplyDeleteSelection of golden words is remarkable as always.
Each is healing and constructive
Bonne journée pour la St-Jean et merci pour tes jolis posts.
ReplyDeleteThe story about the timid dog and little baby was wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHey Linda! Hope you're enjoying the day! Very inspirational post. Esspecially the "Do the things you've always wanted to do..." I've already started my bucket list of things I'd like to do this summer!
ReplyDeleteLinda, Very cute story regarding the baby and the shy dog. It's another example of the amazing effects of bonding. I'm not sure that our grandchildren would even know what a typewriter is! It's amazing that the female parrot picked "Help" from her vocabulary at exactly the right time and place! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteGreat videos and quotes. Have a blessed day and a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteOh how I loved the baby and little dog video! That is the sweetest thing ever. It is so true, so many of our adopted pets were so different, but gained acceptance and developed quite a little personality. We have one little dog, Charlie. Our youngest daughter rescued him from the pound with her birthday money and he would wince with his little eyes when we would put our hand down to pet him, now he is so carefree and even appreciative of us. He has quite the personality now! : )
ReplyDeleteI hope to catch your other videos soon, they aren't loading up today with our internet being slow.
Love,love, love all the quotes, so much truth there, just so much truth.
Linda, your blog truly is that Peaceful Place, and I enjoy visiting so much. In the last weeks it is such a joy to see when I am able what sweet things you have posted. What a breath of fresh air.
You are appreciated friend, love, Amelia
Lovely post, Linda. I hope you had a great week. Enjoy the weekend.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet video of the baby and the little dog, enjoyed all of them. A great post, thank you Linda.
ReplyDeleteI remember all those things which I wanted to do.
ReplyDeleteToday I will do one of them :)
Greetings :)
All great and vital reminders of how important it is to act and not only think, where are our dreams are concerned. We can, I imagine, be the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Linda.
Happy Sunday to you, my friend!

El vídeo del perro y el niño muy simpático. De los pensamientos el de la madre Teresa de Calcuta una gran verdad.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Have tried the white noise. It really works.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the parrot was rescued! Love the quote by Mother Teresa.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend, Linda!
Liked the videos. I used to have a typewriter like that one. Still got most of the poems and short stories I typed on it around 40 years ago.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda! xx
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda! A great, thoughtful post! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteOMG, little Weezy was adorable and so was her baby "brother." I remember going to business college and learning to type on an IBM Selectric ~ It was the newest technology, and it was fantastic compared with the typewriters I had grown up with. I loved the parrot rescue story too. You find the best videos! I'm with Rudi on the importance of love ~ Sending you lots, Linda!
ReplyDeleteI love the phrase of ''Be the inspiration" !!!
ReplyDeleteThat sleeping video is great, and I would love to sleep like it tonight :)
