Cat with 2 faces lives 12 years, sets record - Break News - Ohio
So where will you find your miracle today? This Janus cat has surprised everyone by simply surviving. With his extremely rare condition, he is a miracle. I hope today everyone remembers that they too, are miracles. Make the best of being alive. Don't just survive, THRIVE! As the cutesy bumper sticker says, "Be the Change You Want to See."

A New View on Things
{EAV_BLOG_VER:77954f07ee1b6ec1}
Ok, got the Empire Avenue blog verification taken care of up there. So now on to the real posting stuff.
I am trying a new outlook on things. I am going to strive to do things that not only make me happy but make me feel good. No, I have not turned into a selfish hedonist. I am just going to focus on doing things that make a difference in my life and the lives of others. I want to be proud of my actions not in a braggy kind of way, but so that I look back on my life as having mattered.
As a single female without children in today's society, having a relevant impact seems so vague. I will never send a child that I created out into the big world prepared by my teachings, exposed to my beliefs and values. When I die I will not leave behind a family of mourners, I will be blessed if I am missed by a handful of true friends. That to me just seemed kind of hollow and sad. So I decided to make a change, today, now.
I will let people know that I value them. I will actively seek to improve my knowledge and share with others what wisdom I may gather. I will seek to atone for the close minded thoughts that have seeped into my mind. I will make an effort to assist others in their endeavors and support them as they face life's challenges.
Maybe I will succeed, maybe I won't, but I know that I will be better for having made the journey. I will share the journey with you and let you know what I think. It might even be worth 2 cents.
Wishing you all the best in your search for love, life and the pursuit of happiness.

Imagine... there are OTHER ways to waste time at work besides Facebook. Who would have thought it possible? I have become entangled in the world of Empire Avenue www.empireavenue.com upon the request of my friend, techno geek and fellow blogger Ben Harrington.
Empire Avenue is a social networking site that allows you to invest in your friends. A stock market for social media. You earn money from your friends and through your activity across the web. I am still very much on the lower end of the learning curve, so don't just take my word for it. Check it out and invest some hard earned eaves (Empire Avenue's currency) in my profile if you feel froggy. And if you could, please click through the link at the top of the page so I can get credit for my words of wisdom or what some would call my blog.
I look forward to sharing more of what makes me think, but right now, I should probably work.
TTFN,
Monica
