I was reading my Prevention Mag regarding heart healing and marital discord.
Another must read on my list is The Last Lecture written by Randy Pausch, a Carnegie Mellon computer scientist, along with Jeffrey Zaslow. Pausch passed away today from pancreatic cancer.
Now it really shouldn't be an ordeal but sometimes it is when you cannot locate a beautician who will actually listen to what you have to say.
Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Well, my home computer (a Compaq Presario) finally died on me in glorious fashion late yesterday evening....after almost 10 years of loyal service it said its sad goodbyes last night and now I have to buy a new computer.
Self motivation is an important factor in anyone's life, especially mine.
Ayna on English Sabla posted some tantalizing pictures of this new fashion and have fallen in love:
All my life I was mesmerized by books...any book. Growing up my parents owned a collection of various medical and children encyclopedias. I made good use out of them (more so than my siblings). It was not uncommon to catch my nose in a book with a far away look on my young face.
I was never a cat person growing up. All my life I was surrounded by dogs. When I moved into an apartment I craved a pet. I wanted that unconditional love an animal would bring. They are also wonderful stress relievers.

Due to the lackluster films that have escaped Hollywood the past few years I have skipped going to the movies on a regular basis and will usually wait for them to hit the small screen.
In regards to psychology and the realm of personality tests, I have taken the Four Tempermant Test numerous times in the past 10 years and always came out the same:
The Protector
As an INFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in primarily via intuition. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit with your personal value system.
INFJs are gentle, caring, complex and highly intuitive individuals. Artistic and creative, they live in a world of hidden meanings and possibilities. Only one percent of the population has an INFJ Personality Type, making it the most rare of all the types.
INFJs place great importance on havings things orderly and systematic in their outer world. They put a lot of energy into identifying the best system for getting things done, and constantly define and re-define the priorities in their lives. On the other hand, INFJs operate within themselves on an intuitive basis which is entirely spontaneous. They know things intuitively, without being able to pinpoint why, and without detailed knowledge of the subject at hand. They are usually right, and they usually know it. Consequently, INFJs put a tremendous amount of faith into their instincts and intuitions. This is something of a conflict between the inner and outer worlds, and may result in the INFJ not being as organized as other Judging types tend to be. Or we may see some signs of disarray in an otherwise orderly tendency, such as a consistently messy desk.
INFJs have uncanny insight into people and situations. They get "feelings" about things and intuitively understand them. As an extreme example, some INFJs report experiences of a psychic nature, such as getting strong feelings about there being a problem with a loved one, and discovering later that they were in a car accident. This is the sort of thing that other types may scorn and scoff at, and the INFJ themself does not really understand their intuition at a level which can be verbalized. Consequently, most INFJs are protective of their inner selves, sharing only what they choose to share when they choose to share it. They are deep, complex individuals, who are quite private and typically difficult to understand. INFJs hold back part of themselves, and can be secretive.
Take it with a grain or salt or for entertainment....I read just for the sake of it.
