Purr Therapy, Behaviour, Good Character
Hello dear friends and fellow bloggers! A very warm welcome to you all! Thank you so much for taking the time to come and visit me here! I really appreciate it!
Here are today's selections, which I hope will add some brightness to your day!
The more grateful I am, the more beauty I see. - Mary Davis
A cat purring on your lap is more healing than any drug in the world, as the vibrations you are receiving are of pure love and contentment. - St. Francis of Assisi
Healthy Pets
Make joy and happiness the center of your world. I am happy. - Louise Hay
The best thing about hard times is that you get to see everyone's true colors.
Rustle, rustle Autumn's here. So wander in the magic, and keep hope near. - Angie Weiland-Crosby
If you spend your time hoping someone will suffer the consequences for what they did to your heart, then you're allowing them to hurt you a second time in your mind. - Shannon L. Ander
Relax. Sometimes we just need to take a little time for ourselves.
Inspiring Haven of Love Quotes and Notes
The truth of your character is expressed through the choice of your actions. - Steve Maraboli
Pass It On. The Foundation for a Better Life
I am thankful for the difficult people I've met. They have shown me exactly who I don't want to be. (difficult people can include bullies, ones who try to use you or take advantage of you, who are unkind to you, disrespect you, etc.)
Times may be bad, but that doesn't mean things can't get better. Removing hope doesn't make you safe, it just makes you depressed.
The Latest Kate
The following photos are my own which I took on my cellphone during my walks in Montreal early this month. You can click on each image to see a larger view.
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal! Enjoy! :)
Budweiser TV Ad
For all my fellow cat lovers, please watch this 2 minute video. It will make you smile! :)

good morning linda! right now it's 8.23 am in malaysia and will start my class at 10 am(lecturing). just dropping by to read all the inspirational quotes! take care and have a lovely day!
The best thing about hard times is that you get to see everyone's true colors. I am learning each and every day how true this is. I am also learning to let the negative roll off my back.
Oh, yes, Linda, that cat video made my day! Their unique penchants for invading our most vulnerable spaces certainly can keep us humble and laughing at the same time. Blessings always!
A cat's scratches from their tiger's paws are also very "therapeutic" and "healing", just saying, lol. A lot of good stuff here as usual. Really appreciate your efforts in trying to lift people up and make them feel comforted and hopeful through your sharing. Will BRB. Be right back!
I love this - If you won't let your past die, then it won't let you live. - Perry Noble - I am experiencing this as I right. You have to forget the past and the past hurts before you can live and move on. I sent you a comment today from your comment on my blog and I think it came back.
Loving the autumn leaves 🍂🍁 photos (two) which you took and shared. We do not have the 4 seasons here in SG, only all year round hot hot 🥵 summer, can you call that a blessing in disguise. My wish list is to travel to Australia and New Zealand since these are the 2 countries I have not been to but I heard the news that they are having a high temp of 39 degree Celsius and possible strong winds.
The Budweiser TV commercial with the horses, snow and snowballs is amusing! Reminds me of my trips to Turkey, Canada and South Korea where I experienced winter and snow. Such wonderful moments and memories!
My favorite one tonight is “ If you spend your time hoping someone will suffer the consequences for what they did to your heart, then you're allowing them to hurt you a second time in your mind. - Shannon L. Ander” This is so very true. Hopefully we can heal from the hurt and move on and not be bitter in our hearts. Forgiveness is something we do for ourselves too. I love the Scarborough Fair on the Zither. That was the first song my daughter learned to play on the piano.
Before you speak - that is a good one and I wish more people would do that, think. Your autumn leaves are lovely too and nice to see, Linda. Enjoyed the videos.
Yes, grateful I sure am, dear friend Linda... The Buddha sure is very right, too. And to drugs, I loved the book "A street cat named Bob" - amazing story (haven´t seen the film yet). To all the people, even the bad... LOVE the Budweiser! LOL on the cat. Warm hugs and much love to you.
