1. Scripture Rebuilt
This YouTube channel kind of brings Bible stories to life. You'd have to check it out to see what I mean, it's hard for me to describe. If you are a christian and/or are interested in stories from the Bible, please feel free to check this channel out.
2. Natural Sound
This YouTube channel is one that has plenty of beautiful videos with scenes of nature, some accompanied with the sounds of birds singing and soft piano music, others may have the sounds of gentle rain. If you want to relax, decompress, take your mind off things that may be making you sad or nervous, these videos can help.
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal. Enjoy! :)

ReplyDeleteLindos videos. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeletePeaceful videos are the best.
ReplyDeleteIt's important to encourage people, and to let them be themselves! I like your eyeglass cleaner cloth with the cats on it. Very cheerful. Have a great week, Linda.
ReplyDeleteYou know I love all the cats!! Thanks for another inspiring group of images and wise words!! Have a blessed week ahead!
ReplyDeleteSuch empowering quotes, Linda! Oh, I love the cat design on the microfiber cloth. In fact I am attracted to anything with cats on them. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love Andy Griffith! That microfiber cloth is cute too - all the cats!
ReplyDelete...hopefully we can improve on a daily basis. Linda, take care and be well and happy!
ReplyDeleteI like your thoughtful quotations. Thank you.
ReplyDelete"I choose to make the rest of my life the best of my life." I try and do this every day.
ReplyDeleteAndy Griffith was one of my favourite shows growing up.
God bless.
morning greeting from kuala lumpur. today is a quiet day as i don't have class today but need to attend a talk (work-related). for today, i choose this quote : Each day comes bearing its gifts. Untie the ribbon... anyway, dear linda..what's the season now in montreal? is it spring? as i see cherry blossom season in japan now (my nephew and some of my friends are in tokyo for holiday). i really miss all the daffodils when i was staying in nottingham in 2010 (16 years ago). spring is also lovely and colourful. take care dear linda! have a blissful monday!
ReplyDeleteI love that little pattern. How cute is that!!! Have you ever been to the Calmed by Nature YT channel? Some really neat images. When I'm snugged on the couch reading. Sometimes I'll have the sound and often I will not. I just like the fun. And at Halloween time too.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a great week ahead.
Many excellent quotes here--one of my favorites is "you run the day or the day runs you." I tend to forget that I can make decisions and choices to do or not do something.
ReplyDeleteThe little video about the man and the wild Robin almost brought me to tears.
ReplyDeletea great selection today. i really liked "you are so much stronger than your excuses". i have never heard that before and it made me smile!!
ReplyDeleteI like that Rohn quote.
ReplyDeleteThe cats with hearts are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing the inspiring quotes, Linda. They always brighten my day. I wish you a very lovely week. Blessings.
ReplyDeleteSome great quotes, Linda. I love esp. the one from Carlos Castenada.
ReplyDeleteYour cat cleaning wipe is so cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the encouraging words and helpful advice you found for us; we really appreciate them!
Have a good week! Hugs Elke
Yes," We either make ourselves miserable or make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same." It's our choice.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I love your cleaning cloth with cats on it! And the video of Bob the little robin was incredibly touching. Have a lovely week!
ReplyDeleteInteresting thought, dear friend Linda, to have being a different person only the day before.
ReplyDelete"Look the world straight in the eye" by Helen Keller is .. a WOW. But then... she could ride a bicycle and even talk!
And... to fun! And cute cloth!
Wow on the Robin and his family. Oh, that poor hawk sure got lucky after all...
Warm hugs and much love on the way for the new week!
Good quotes, Linda as always. Words written to think about.
ReplyDeleteLove the TV video and the bird (Hawk) one.
Always good, Linda, your gag(s)! Hope you have a nice week!
ReplyDeleteLie(f)s.
Thank you for your quotes, I pick one: "Each day comes bearing its gifts. Untie the ribbon." I love it.
ReplyDeleteMerci pour ce partage.
ReplyDeleteNous traversons tous des zones d'ombre, et ces mots sur la tristesse et le besoin d'encouragement résonnent beaucoup.
Bonne journée.
Fishing line wrapping the hawk, I guess. It is sad that it happens but at least that hawk was freed.
ReplyDeleteA very nice selection. That microfiber cloth is so cute love the cat design
ReplyDeleteHello Linda,
ReplyDeleteWonderful quotes and wise words. One of my favorites is by Anne Frank. Thanks for sharing the videos! Take care, enjoy your day and happy week.

ReplyDeleteOh my, these were all so good. I loved the videos...the one about the Hawk and the Robin...both so special. And I always love some good old Andy Griffith! Thank you for taking the time to find all of these different quotes and videos for us. I truly enjoyed them all.
ReplyDeleteUna vez mas no puedo clasificar por importancia tus frases ya que me parecen todas geniales.
ReplyDeleteLos videos de los animales me encantaron.
Saludos.

ReplyDeleteI always come away from reading your blog post with something new! Thank you, Linda.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouraging posts and quotes you shared. I love the video about the Robin. What a gift that gentleman had in their friendship!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiring words, Linda!
ReplyDeleteGood morning. I imagine your day is as grey and rainy as ours, but it is rain and not snow. Good quote by Hay. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteUntie the ribbon of each day's gifts -- love it! And wow, I love that multi-cats microfibre cloth too. And how sweet is that video about Bob the British Robin? And now Bobette!
ReplyDeleteGrazie per le immagini. i filmati , le massime.
ReplyDeleteBuona giornata, un abbraccio
enrico
In actually have a tea cup with a very similar pattern to the one on your microfiber cloth LOL
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! I love watching the Darlings on the Andy Griffith show! The cat micro fiber cloth is adorable!
ReplyDeleteDear Linda, I hope you are feeling well and eating well. Since it is Spring now, I hope you have hay fever meds at hand in case you need them as the flowers pollen can irritate the breathing system.
ReplyDeleteYour micro fiber cloth design with so many different looking 😺 are so adorable. Some 😺 wore spectacles, some 😺 have thick mustache and some 😺 even look like 🦉
Such an interesting piece of cloth. I usually buy plain cloth so I guess I am a plain person 😂
I like the cat cloth (not a surprise, is it?)!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quotes! Loved the exploding tv :D
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week!
Good evening from Athens, Linda. We are in Monday, the second day of our Easter here. My best wishes, my friend.
ReplyDeleteThese are some good a relevant quotes.
ReplyDeleteSome good reminders here to start the week. Hope you have a good one, Linda.
ReplyDeleteI like all of them, some of them more than like, my favourite being "If you want to fly, give up everything that weighs you down."
ReplyDeleteI absolutely loved hearing those songs from the Andy Griffith Show, Linda. Such a wholesome and innocent time that is sorely missed today. Your photo is so cute, too. Have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely great thoughts. But that first one is just for you. You delight us with your wonderful blog.
ReplyDeleteYour microfiber cloth is a lot cuter than mine! I needed these today. Thanks, Linda.
ReplyDeleteThat story of the robin was so touching. Thanks for sharing. Have a wondrous week.
ReplyDeleteI like the microfibre cloth, I got some Hallowe'en ones last year! Great quote as well Linda. Hope you are doing good :-D
ReplyDeleteThank you for this post! Have a nice day!
ReplyDeletePensa a tutta la bellezza che ancora ti circonda e sii felice. Mi piace. Quasi nessuno apprezza più le piccole cose.
ReplyDeleteUn caro saluto!
Beautiful maxim about yesterday.
ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteHello Linda,

It's never too early or too late to work towards being the healthiest you.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the above... this is something I am working on currently.
xo
Wonderful post, Linda. I like the quotes and images. Have a nice day.
ReplyDeleteThat glasses cloth would make it so much fun to clean the dirt off my lenses!
ReplyDeleteLindo, citáty a myšlenky mají smysl, aby se lidé nad nimi zamysleli a mnohé si uvědomili!
ReplyDeleteUbrousek na brýle je milý. ☺
Hello Linda
ReplyDeleteThank you for another great post.
Such a good collection of quotes and images.
Wishing you a good week.

Love the micro fiber cloth's whimsical design. I have tons of these eyeglasses-cleaning cloths, but they all have boring designs (sold colour).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit!
Some great inspirational quotes.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
What beautiful quotes. Funny enough, I heard Serena Williams' voice today; she advertised some sort of weight loss medication. Hugs, my dear.
ReplyDeleteGreat quotes, I like the one for making the best of the rest of my life,
ReplyDeleteThat is a cute cleaning cloth :). I feel i am forever cleaning my glasses.
The natural sounds videos sound good to relax too, I know I enjoy listening to the birds in the mornings :)

ReplyDeleteEl sufrimiento y la alegría son dos partes del mundo dualista que nos ha tocado vivir.

sometimes we forget that our feelings are valid and that healing and growth take time, not perfection...
ReplyDeleteThank you for the recommendations, quotes, and images. Cats radiate energy everywhere—even on a microfiber cloth for cleaning glasses.
ReplyDeleteWhat a rich collection of this important theme!
ReplyDeleteI have several favorites. Here a few of them:
* I'm so glad you exist.
* Your feelings are valid. You have the right to feel whatever you feel. You aren't exaggerating. You aren't being too sensitive. You aren't being dramatic. You're hurting, and that's okay.
* I'm inspired by your resilience and determination. Keep up the great work.
* Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye. - Helen Keller
* Either you run the day or the day runs you. - Jim Rohn
* We either make ourselves miserable or make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same. - Carlos Castenada
* She took the leap and built her wings on the way down.
* If people aren't having fun, they seldom produce good work. - David Ogilvy
The longer I study all this wisdom I love them all the same. They help me now to go on.
Many greetings and blessings to you from Dori from the Bavarian Forest
"I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then." This is so true. When I see my friends from my youth after a long time, they expect me to be the same as I was long ago, even though they themselves have changed. Life grows and changes people until the end.
ReplyDelete"Bir insanın üzüntünüze nasıl tepki verdiği, hayatınızda ne kadar süre kalacağı hakkında çok şey söyler."
ReplyDeleteGüzel bir söz.
Şunu da eklemek isterim. Bir insanın sizi ne kadar üzdüğü de hayatınızda ne kadar süre kalacağını belirler. :)
I always love when The Darlings were on Andy Griffith.
ReplyDeleteLove that microfiber cloth. Have a grand one.
ReplyDeleteMany thoughtful words here Linda, and nice vedeos as well,,
ReplyDeleteAll the sayings are interesting, but this one is my favorite: No fruits, no birds, no beautiful song: without trees we cannot live for long. Save trees. Plant trees.
ReplyDeleteThank You Linda...Hug!
ReplyDeleteSuch a heartfelt and touching post. I really appreciate how you combine honesty about sadness with gentle encouragement. It’s a beautiful reminder that even difficult moments can carry hope and inspiration.
ReplyDeleteSão pensamentos que trazem leveza para a vida da gente, mas o que mais importa é a natureza, como é bela!
ReplyDeleteSuas indicações de canais no Youtube são lindas!!
Eu também tenho um canal de vídeos musicais no YouTube, das décadas de 50 a 90.
Beijos e uma linda e especial semana!!!
Nice post, I love the Andy Griffith show. Have a good day!

ReplyDeleteI love the Andy Griffith show. It's a classic!
ReplyDeleteBoa noite, minha querida amiga Linda. Obrigada por cada reflexão. A minha preferida é "A forma como uma pessoa reage à sua tristeza diz muito sobre quanto tempo ela permanecerá na sua vida". Uma excelente noite de terça-feira, para você e todos os seus familiares em Montreal. Grande abraço do seu amigo brasileiro.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy what you post.
ReplyDeleteSo many good sayings!
ReplyDeleteNice post and I loved the tv set video So funny!
ReplyDeleteThese quotes are so uplifting, Linda!
ReplyDeleteThe cat cloth is charming, and I found the Carlos Castenada line very powerful.
What a greatful Post again. I enjoyed reading very much. Greetings by Heidrun ❤️
ReplyDeleteAmazing post! I really like it. Your blog is awesome.
ReplyDeleteHello Linda,
ReplyDeleteI see a lot of beautiful and inspiring texts here.
There are some among them that I find very beautiful.
My five-and-a-half-year-old grandson died in an accident, and the pain and grief remain in our souls. With some texts, the loss becomes a little more bearable.
Thank you.
Dear Linda :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for these uplifting quotes and great videos: I loved the little robin pictures and story, and the Hawk rescue,
Best wishes
Sonjia.
What beautiful and inspiring quotes, thank you. Cute clothe too!
ReplyDeleteImam problema od zadnjeg javljanja
ReplyDeleteI agree with so many of these.. such wonderful words.
ReplyDeleteWhen I left a comment on your blog yesterday, I can no longer leave comments not even on my blog. "More ljubavi" is in my blog. Since I left a comment on your blog, it no longer guides me as "More ljubavi" but as "Morski vuk". Why is this happening???
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that this is happening to you. There must be a technical problem but I hope this gets fixed soon.
DeleteAlicja w Krainie Czarów 😍😍😍😍
ReplyDeleteLove the Helen Keller quote.
ReplyDeleteThank you for these gentle reminders, especially that our feelings are valid. Sending you warm regards🩷 You truly make this space brighter🙂
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, some of these i needed to see today. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletelove all the quotes, great reminders and sooo true
ReplyDeleteMe encantaron todas las citas y me gustó mucho ver al petirrojo, es un pájaro precioso. Besos.
ReplyDeleteYour collection creates such a steady rise from tenderness to strength, and I love how you weave together comfort, honesty, and determination in a way that feels both grounding and uplifting, with each quote offering its own small shift in perspective while still forming a cohesive emotional arc, and the mix of nature moments, gentle humor, and those sweet cats on the microfiber cloth adds a warm human touch that balances the heavier reflections beautifully, while your video and channel recommendations offer calm, connection, and a little joy just when they are needed most, making the entire post feel like a soft place to land and a quiet reminder that resilience grows in many forms.
ReplyDeleteYou find the best quotes, Linda! I especially loved the video of rescuing the little hawk. Have a happy week!
ReplyDeletePodoba mi się cytat, o tym, że nie można wrócić do wczoraj.
ReplyDeletePozdrawiam serdecznie
Love the Ocean Lifecare quotes
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely design on the microfiber cloth!
