Hello dear friends and fellow bloggers! A very warm welcome to you all! Thank you so much for taking time to come and visit me here! I really appreciate it so much!
Here are today's picks, which I hope will bring some brightness into you day!
Just when the caterpillar thought the world was ending, he turned into a butterfly. - Proverb
I've come to realize the only people I want in my life are the ones who want me in theirs, even when I have nothing else to offer but myself.
Life is less about making ourselves into something...and more about letting everything fall away that blocks the light that we already are. - Jane Lee Logan
We shouldn't have to know what people are going through for us to have the common courtesy to be nice to them.
When the milk is splattered all over the floor, and those little eyes are looking at you for your reaction, remember what really matters. It takes 5 minutes to clean up spilled milk. It takes much longer to clean up a broken spirit. - Rebecca Eanes
Let go and trust the journey.
I'm not interested in fighting, hating, blaming or being petty with whatever time I have left in my life. I want to live. I want to be happy. I want to be loved and I want to have peace.
I choose to be happy! I will not under any circumstance allow my mind to be distracted or bothered by any thought that is not positive, encouraging, constructive, optimistic, inspiring, compassionate or kind.
What we fear doing most is usually what we most need to do. - Tim Ferriss
Together we can help each other find the rainbow in the storm.
Depression is like a bruise that never goes away. A bruise in your mind. You just got to be careful not to touch it where it hurts. It's always there, though. - Jeffrey Eugenides
Morning anxiety refers to a specific type of anxiety that occurs upon waking up or during the early hours of the day. Individuals who experience morning anxiety often wake up feeling anxious or stressed, and these feelings may persist throughout the morning or for a significant part of the day. It can interfere with a person's ability to start their day and may impact their overall well-being.
Your mind is a magnet. If you think of blessings, you attract blessings, and if you think of problems, you attract problems. Always cultivate good thoughts and always remain positive and optimistic.
Good morning. Real beauty is not what the eyes can behold but what the heart can hold. What we see with our eyes will vanish someday, but what we store in our heart will forever stay.
A pet is a little tuft of consciousness that circles a person like a moon around a planet and completes their energy field. In a more daily language, our pets heal us and make us whole. - Gurdjieff, Philosopher and Mystic
Every healthy food has its health benefits. But not everyone appreciates them!
The smell of an orange relieves stress. Smelling an orange or eating one can reduce stress by over 70%.
Find company within yourself and you'll never spend a day alone. Find love within yourself and you'll never have a lonely day. - Connor Chalfant
You are confined only by the walls you build yourself. - Andrew Murphy
Don't get upset with people or situations. Both are powerless without your reaction.
Don't focus on success or failure: just focus on effort. Focus on trying.
Aromatherapy is the art and science of utilizing naturally extracted aromatic essences from plants to balance, harmonize and promote the health of body, mind and spirit. It unifies an individual's innate healing process. - National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy

The following are my own photos, which I took on my cellphone. You can click on each image to see a larger view.
This first photo is the inside of the Montreal metro.
These last three photos are of some of my reusable shopping bags. I will share some more in future posts.
I am sorry, but I did not know how to change the position of this photo. I think it is fine, though, that you can see the cat well enough. :)
Mondou, where I purchased this bag from, is a large pet supply store in Quebec. There are several locations. They do not sell any animals, only pet supplies. Great store!
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal! Enjoy! :)

My favorite is the one about the spilled milk. The Metro looks so clean! Not like the subways here. You must love cats as much as we do!
ReplyDeleteSo many good ones this time, Linda. Two of my favorite ones are “ Find company within yourself and you'll never spend a day alone. Find love within yourself and you'll never have a lonely day. - Connor Chalfant” and “ Don't focus on success or failure: just focus on effort. Focus on trying”. Both are so very true. Thank you for sharing these with us.
ReplyDeleteGood evening Linda, I guess at this time 9 pm your time, you have completed your meals for the day. I love the pictures on your reusable shopping bags. You are truly a cat lover ❤️ the inside of Montreal metro looks similar to what we have here. Clean and sleek!
ReplyDelete🌹🧚😘😘
ReplyDeleteDear Linda, I love your energizing posts full of love and positivity, even the kitty artwork—everything is so beautiful! Only good vibes here, you're a true sunshine!
Big hug 🌹🧚😘😘
I love that quotation by Gurdjieff! And the artwork on the pet store supply bag too. I've only been to Montreal once, in 1977 when I was 20 (yikes, nearly 50 years ago now!) Going on the Montreal Metro was a big deal for me! It was the first time I'd ever been on a subway.
ReplyDeleteI love this one - I'm not interested in fighting, hating, blaming or being petty with whatever time I have left in my life. I want to live. I want to be happy. I want to be loved and I want to have peace.
