One day at a time is all we should be dealing with. We can't go back to yesterday, we can't predict tomorrow, so let's live for today and make it beautiful.

The following photos are my own, which I took in a high end mall here in Montreal...the Royalmount. You can click on any image to see a larger view. I have no idea what this vehicle is, but many people were taking photos of it so I decided to do the same.

A statue in the mall.

This was a Porsche vehicle in the same mall.

There is a lilac tree not far from where I live and I took these last photos of it because the high heat and humidity strike here in Montreal, as they will not survive it. You can click on any image to see a larger view.


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

Injured jaguar swims up to boat and asks for help (We Love Animals)

Paralyzed dog changes her destiny and starts to run (The Dodo)

The Blue Danube

  13. Hi Linda! I love today's theme - Live for Today! Don't ruminate about yesterday and don't worry about tomorrow (which I sometimes do) and appreciate today! Which I am as it is a public holiday!

  14. Hi again! Just popping back to tell you that we have watched 'The Boy in the Striped Pajamas'. Thought it was so touching and good. Another one we watched recently was Truth and Treason, which is a true story from WWII about a teenager who stands up for truth.
    Thanks for the suggestion!
