Simplicity, Joy, Treasure and Celebrate Each Year

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!

Here are today's picks, which I hope will brighten your day!

                 Purrs of Wisdom with Ingrid King


Just like you shouldn't go grocery shopping when starving, you should be careful looking for love when lonely. In both cases, you can wind up with unhealthy choices.

Karen Salmansohn


Happiness starts with you. Not with your relationship, not with your job, not with your money, but with you.


Keep your heart filled with gratitude...sprinkled with some sassitude.  :)
Princess Sassy Pants & Co.


The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly. - Anonymous


I dwell on positive thoughts.


One of the greatest things about life is that every time you think you won't get over something, you do.
Mind Journal


You can't look at a sleeping cat and be tense. - Jane Pauley
Purrs of Wisdom with Ingrid King


If you only walk on sunny days you'll never reach your destination. - Paulo Coelho
The Simplicity Habit


Simplifying allows us to slow down enough to savor this life. - Emily Ley

I am not the words that were said to me. I am what I say to myself.

Just like bees collect nectar from each flower, gather inspiration from every moment of your day.

Know that you are the perfect age. Each year is special and precious; for you shall only live it once.

Stop thinking too much, it's alright not to know all the answers. Sometimes there is no answer, not going to be any answer, never has been an answer. That's the answer! Just accept it, move on!
Ups, Downs and Roundabouts


Leave it in God's hands.
Little Faith Quotes


Be kind to every kind, not just mankind. - Anthony Douglas Williams
Emily's Quotes


The way I see it, every year can be a brand new journey. Think about it: you get one chance to be 25, 38, 44, 61, and every age before and between. Why wouldn't you want to experience all the wonder in each step on your path? - Oprah Winfrey
Home Care


To ensure good health: eat lightly, breathe deeply, live moderately, cultivate cheerfulness and maintain an interest in life. - William London
The Good Body


Wrinkles should merely indicate where the smiles have been.  :)


Cat's motto: no matter what you've done wrong, always try to make it look like the dog did it.  :)
Deavita


Stop making excuses. Tired? Sleep earlier! Out of shape? Exercise more! Don't have time? Quit watching TV! Don't have the money? Stop wasting it! Seems too complicated? Start small and try! Don't have the knowledge? Learn and read a book!
We all know what we need to do, but most people still don't do it, because it's hard to go out of your comfort zone, and it's easier to make excuses.


Try your best not to cry or go into a rage after someone criticizes you in the smallest way.
Healthy Place


The following photos are my own, which I took here in Montreal on my walks earlier this month on my cellphone. You can click on any image to see a larger view.



These last photos are some more of the reusable shopping bags that I have. I do have many, but I have bought them in the last 5 years, as they are very handy to have! Some are small, some larger. Some people collect ornaments, dishes, cups, whatever...myself, I have these reusable shopping bags.  :)





The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal. Enjoy! :)
