Welcome to FURRY FRIDAY! On Friday's you can now count on finding something furry, either a video, article or picture of an animal. Hope you enjoy! Be sure to stop in often for contests, great links and lots of fun. 


Today's video features a tiny kitten who was born blind and could easily have ended up homeless or worse. Thanks to some very kind and loving folks she is now enjoying a wonderful life. Never underestimate a life!

I'm Younging Not Aging

Have I found the fountain of youth? No. What I have discovered is our age has more to do with your frame of mind than the year on the calendar. So lets explore how "the young" think?

1)Embrace The New Day: Children hit the ground running, they can't wait to see what is going to happen. When was the last time you met the day with that much enthusiasm? When you see each day as a new beginning you can't possibly feel anything but renewed.

2) Learn Something New: Children intuitively know that there is so much that they don't know which gives them a hunger to learn. Did you learn something new today? Yesterday? The minute you think you know everything you are OLD.

3)Look Forward Not Backward: When a child is first learning to walk they inevitably fall. Do they obsess about why? Do they stop trying? Dwelling on the past and obsessing on what we perceive as mistakes freezes us from moving forward. Stagnation is the stuff of aging.

4) Find Joy In Simple Things: Have you ever seen a child with bubble wrap? How about the endless giggles that bubble from an infant when you make the same noise over and over again. Each time it's as if it was the first. Take a moment to enjoy the sound of the rain on your porch. Stretch out on some grass and enjoy the tickle on your back. Better yet roll down a hill or go buy some bubble wrap.

5) Do Things Differently: Shake It Up: Children are never caught up in ritual. We work very hard to teach them routine and order. It's not a bad thing except when you are controlled by it, unable to break free. Try driving a different way to work. Eat something different. What about starting on the other side of the supermarket? It will feel uncomfortable, but in a good way. Getting old is being set in our ways. Find balance in mixing things up. 

Are you younging or aging? 

The choice is yours!
