ReplyDeleteHello Linda
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing all these quotes and memes on kindness, it doesn't cost anything to be kind but makes so much difference.
Enjoy the remainder of Wednesday.
Sending lots of good wishes across the miles.
All the best Jan
...Linda, the Chicken Soup for the Soul kitty are adorable. Keep passing on the compassion.
ReplyDeleteA timely reminder about the importance of compassion, kindness and sympathy/empathy. I would like people to remember me in those terms.
ReplyDeleteHow special, a ghost Pigeon! I wonder if he is an albino? Did you notice if he had red eyes?
ReplyDeleteOh, I love to watch birds too. Have you tried the Merlin Bird ID app from Cornell University? You can turn the app on and it will tell you what kind of bird it is just from the song the bird is singing. It's a great app.
ReplyDeletedear linda! morning greetings from kuala lumpur. it's so heartwarming to read your comments at my blog..thanks for updating me about the wintry condition in montreal. may everything will get better soon. i love pigeons too! here in my university, there are also pigeons (near grand hall)..sometimes i do drop by there and sometimes i do bring some grain to feed the pigeons (but not very frequent). for today, i choose this quote: Kindness is more important than wisdom and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom... this morning, it was drizzling slightly when i was driving to my workplace (university). till then, take care dear linda! oh one more thing, i do like eggs and this morning i took one hardboiled egg for my early breakfast :)
ReplyDeleteHay que ser empatice. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteI appreciated all of these quotes and videos. I enjoyed the Toni Tenille and her sisters singing, and the one about the little tiny mole. Oh, and seeing Patti Page singing "How Much is the Doggy in the window?" I haven't heard that in many years. These were all good, and I enjoyed it all. Thank you for the lessons about compassion. Something we could all use a lot more of and also I know it's something I need to work on.
ReplyDeleteOh, that baby mole! I must send that video to my sister, she'll love it too!

Compassion is critical. Much of the issues today in the world have to do with leaders with no compassion.
ReplyDeleteCompassion is so important and is sadly lacking these days.
ReplyDeleteBoa noite minha querida amiga Linda. Gostei de todas as reflexões. A minha preferida: Empatia é você ver, ouvir com os ouvidos do outro, e sentir com o coração do outro. Uma excelente noite de quarta-feira. Grande abraço do seu amigo brasileiro.
ReplyDeleteHola. Hermosos todos los pensamientos, gracias por compartir. Bellas tus fotos. Un abrazo.
