That's right, people...
Today, I'm posting after a bit of a hiatus. With a crazy year of crises, that I certainly won't get into here, there is, and I dare say it prematurely, a sense of control regained, which will allow me to spend more time here. :)
I've been working on 'me' this year...
So, without further adieu...

Basically, to make a long story shorter, a family is trying to figure out how to use the funds from the family "swear jar" that has accumulated a small fortune now...LOL...
While they were going to donate it to a charity they all agreed on, they wondered if this would be Read more [...]

I posted a story on my ExoticAnimalLover.com site today that I got from a friend.
Yes, it is about how pearls are made, but inside of this story is a very valuable lesson that I just had to share with you here...Enjoy!
"Do you know how a pearl is made?” The old man asked me.
An irritant enters the shell of an oyster; sometimes very small, sometimes not so small.
The oyster, aware of it’s pain, begins to cover the irritant’s jagged edges with a solution created from inside itself. Read more [...]
