A weekly curation of links I love from around the web! You’ll find a mixture of helpful, inspirational, and informational posts that span manners and much more. I’ve gathered them all for your perusal and enjoyment!
- These mesmerizing photos show ballerinas dancing in the streets. The dancers show such grace, strength, and beauty. A beautiful collection of an Instagram artist. Amazing!
- What if interacting with the young lady behind the donut counter not only made a difference in her day but changed your day too? And what if it didn’t just change your day? What if it permanently impacted your resolve to be the kindest version of yourself? I wish I had written this. Yet if I had, we wouldn’t all have the joy of reading the words of the exquisite Michele Cushatt.
- Panic attacks are my Achilles’ heel. They have been since I was in my early twenties. Mine tend to occur while driving and in large open areas like shopping malls. If you’ve ever had one, you know you’ll do just about anything not to have another one. Here are 31 actually helpful tips for dealing with panic attacks from people who have them. Tip numbers three, six, and thirteen are ones I use regularly because they help me. If you have or have had panic attacks and have advice, I’d love to know it. You can always reach me by email at [email protected]

Judge Judy, I haven’t dedicated an entire book to the subject, but Byrd’s still right, since I have posted almost a book’s worth of blog posts on this very topic. I agree with everything Judge Judy says in this video clip, as you’ll see in the posts you’ll find below the clip:
