  4. Don't focus on who let you down. Appreciate who lifted you up. Don't focus on who darkened your days. Appreciate who brightened them.

    Can you believe that was the basis of our minister's lesson today?

    Maybe a God Wink.

  9. Dear Linda I went through and read all the quotes. They are all so uplifting, positive and inspiring that I don't know which to choose as my favourite. I like your own photos of the trees and flowers. They are so beautiful. They remind me that there are gems in nature and the animals. Sending hugs and love and positive energy from SG to Canada.

  17. I especially like the one about owning less. I've lived in apartents most of my adult life and love it, it's not fancy, but it's so carefree.

  18. Thank you for all the words of inspiration. So true, Linda, owning less means less cleaning...and I'm so for that...lol! Love the heart-warming story of Rico finding his forever home and repaying the kind person who took him in.

  22. The Dalai Lama sure is right, dear friend Linda.
    It seems like this time of the year many feel "dark"... And I sure must declutter, as soon as the work is done and my arm is back!
    My brain sure sang Freddie´s words happily!
    And Nico sure is the sweetest!
    The child is amazing - I only hope she does it of free will.Is the woman really 90 years old?! If so: Chapeau!
    To a new week, warm hugs and much love on the way!
