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


Hello! I'm here to make your Monday more beautiful. :)

Somewhere along the way we learned that a peaceful life is far more valuable than a busy one.



Nothing can disturb your peace of mind unless you allow it to.

Peace is our gift to each other. - Elie Wiesel
                               Quote Fancy


Set peace of mind as your highest goal, and organize your life around it. - Brian Tracey
                             Reader's Digest


Peace does not come from controlling the world. Peace comes from learning to watch our mind with mindfulness. 
                Purrs of Wisdom with Ingrid King


The practice of staying present will heal you. Obsessing about how the future will turn out creates anxiety. Replaying broken scenarios from the past causes anger or sadness. Stay here, in the moment. - S. McNutt
                                Tiny Buddha


Within you, there is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself. - Hermann Hesse
                             Reader's Digest


Take this day one day at a time. And if that becomes too much, take it an hour at a time. And if that's too much, take it one minute at a time. And if that's too much, take it a single breath at a time.
                          Sketches in Stillness


You will get there when you are meant to get there and not one moment sooner...so relax, breathe and be patient. - Mandy Hale
                                     Trvst


Feelings are something you have; not something you are. - Shannon L. Ander
                             Ineffable Living


When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.
                                   Alamy


Give peace a chance. - John Lennon
                Purrs of Wisdom with Ingrid King


The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone in a Montreal park. This is the last of the series from this beautiful park, continuing (and ending in this post) from my last two blog posts. I have no idea what the plants, trees or flowers are called, I just found them beautiful. You can click on any image to see a larger view.

  1. My priority in life is peace. If more humans stopped doing and wanting all the time the world would be a more peaceful place. The plants in your parks are far different to here and the UK.

  2. Somewhere along the way we learned that a peaceful life is far more valuable than a busy one. I like this one - it's true. Peace is important.
    I think that the photos you take with your phone are beautiful. Liked that second photo of the red plant.

  4. Hello Linda! Peace is precious. Mayhem and chaos is destructive! Oh, I love the quotes and your photos. The plant in the 4th photo (with red flowers) looks familiar. I have seen it before. If I do come across it again, I will snap a photo and share.

  5. I think my favourite meme today is the one about the two kinds of tired: the kind that needs rest, and the one that needs peace. So true, at least for me.
    Have a great week ( I hope it's not too hot).
