If you could change a persons life... would you? Maybe for their entire life, maybe even the rest of their life or even just temporarily. Would you? *disclaimer* this message is not meant to boast nor toot any horns! It is meant as a reminder and/or challenge (if you feel so inclined) I am a consumer, I WANT EVERYTHING often! Sometimes I have moments of clarity however and realize I have everything I need and then some. How bout you? Being born healthy and in the "land of the free" I am "entitled" to things others are not and that just seems strange to me. I was born and am healthy enough to look people in the eye and smile without shame. I have been blessed with the right to an education of my choice. I am healthy enough to work/provide a decent living for myself. I have always, no matter where I was on this journey had enough clean water to drink and bathe in, ALWAYS! What about those not as fortunate as I/us? These are tugging at my heart strings and we are stepping up. Will you join us? one operation for one child is just a minimal fee of $240. http://www.operationsmile.org/ to sponsor a Tibetan elder and/or child for one year is just $360. http://tibetfund.org/sponsor_gateway.html many areas in which to contribute here. http://www.seva.org/site/PageServer?pagename=GOS_HOC I have been pondering this, trying to figure out how to inform/challenge w/o coming off as being boastful/full of ego. That is not my intent! My intent is to; inform, remind and yes even challenge you to meet our contributions if you feel so inclined. Message me privately if you are interested. I just cant stop thinking that if one household could touch/change so many lives then what could 10 or more housholds do together?

The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz

FG — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 20:17:36 GMT

(yea, I jacked it from Keira but it was right on time and I had to share it further) The Four Agreements are: BE IMPECCABLE WITH YOUR WORD. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the of truth and love. DON'T TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering. DON'T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS. Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life. ALWAYS DO YOUR BEST. Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are tired as opposed to well-rested. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

Grateful Dead to reunite for Obama concert

FG — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 15:12:00 GMT

http://www.reuters.com/article/lifestyleMolt/idUSN0147632420080202?rpc=92 SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters Life!) - The Grateful Dead, the San Francisco cult rock band that has played at political events since the 1960s, will reunite on Monday for the first time in four years to rally support for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, a spokesman said on Friday. Band leader Jerry Garcia died in 1995. Surviving members have played together occasionally since then, most recently in 2004. On Monday, original members Mickey Hart, Phil Lesh and Bob Weir will play at a San Francisco theater a day before California's primary. "They have agreed to reunite for this one-time-only event in order to lend support to Senator Obama leading into the crucial 'Super-Tuesday' series of primaries held on Tuesday, February 5th," the band said in a statement. The band gained fame with its free-form psychedelic music when the counterculture movement flourished in San Francisco in the 1960s, and they attracted many loyal fans who came to be known as "Deadheads."

Christmas Kitty anyone??? (Houston TX)

FG — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 16:10:27 GMT

one of the women there has taken in nine cats who were abandoned by her neighbor who moved away and left them on the porch. They're being cared for in her yard, so they've been outdoors for about a month now, but they were all indoor domesticated cats. She believes most are spayed/neutered and are up to date on shots, but there's no documentation. I posted some pictures she sent me to my pics: http://people.tribe.net/lonestarjen/photos they are all friendly and approachable and she doesn't want to take them to the spca, since they're all adults. she's been warned by a contractor building condos across the street that he doesn't want them on his properties and he's going to haul them off. if anyone is interested in adopting or fostering a cat, contact Kathy Alexander (713) 863-1645 or DogOne1205@aol.com please let me know or her if you have any other suggestions for rescue that wouldn't lead to euthanasia.

Many Thanks for a wonderful baby shower

MISSING CHILD ALERT

FG — Sat, 09 Jun 2007 16:16:36 GMT

Of course I read about this one and saw it on the news but I always check for hoaxs any way in case the info provided contains some falsity. Madeline's eyes as posted in this e-mail message are in fact actually like that and it could be a signifigant help in finding her. I checked it out, on truth or fiction so I am passing it along . Sharon Please Pass this email on to everyone in your address book and they reckon it could cover 80% of the world's inboxes in 2 weeks. Madeleine's Eye Holds Vital Clue Updated: 18:00 , Saturday May 12, 2007 Madeleine McCann's family believe a new picture of the missing four-year-old could play a vital role in the search for her. The photo of the youngster shows clearly the her distinctive right eye, where the pupil runs into the blue-green iris. It is this distinguishing mark that will identify Madeleine to those on the lookout for her, according to aunt and uncle John and Diane McCann. The Glasgow couple aim to distribute the appeal poster, which features the Crimestoppers telephone number, as far afield as they can. Family friend Andrew Renwick told Sky News that support for the search had been "overwhelming" and her family were extremely grateful. Mrs McCann said: "The purpose of the poster is to highlight the distinction in Madeleine's eye. "We want to make the most of it, because we know her hair could potentially be cut or dyed." Mr McCann added: "The poster was designed by a friend of the family and I've begun Emailing it to acquaintances in different parts of the world. "I'm asking people to circulate it the best they can and make it be seen." Madeleine's Eye Holds Vital Clue
