It is strange how the view of the world changes when you think you are gravely ill.
I find myself daydreaming about long vacations on the beach and driving really fast sports cars.
Other things in my life fall under a closer scrutinising eye. Am I happy? Will I be able to be happy for the rest of my life in my current situation? How long will I live? One year or 60 more?
Happiness is almost like a mythical unicorn when you are in the day to day grind.
I have found it easier to ponder life changing events.
What would I have done differently? Would I have been nicer to people if I would had known that my life may possibly be cut short?
I am looking at things in a whole new light.
Sometimes it takes a startling realization to force people to return to who they really are. Not a job title or a paycheck or social status.
I have not found out anything definite, but when I do, I will share it.
Nothing is in stone. Life is what you make of it. So, have a little fun, no matter how much time you have left on this earth.

Life, It Ain't What I Ordered
Have you ever felt like someone is sucking the life out of you? That is how I woke up feeling this morning. I don't know how, but things are gonna change. I can't live like this anymore. Suffication is a terrible way to die.

Year of the Pig
Also according to customary superstition, that these people are not vengeful creatures. If someone tries to take advantage of them, the pig type tend to withdraw to reflect on the problem and protect themselves. All they need in such situations is a little time to find a constructive way to respond. The people of the pig type are conservative creatures of habit. They dislike being made to travel too far from familiar surroundings, unless it is a trip to the countryside. They love nature and are never happier than when they are out somewhere, far from the city.
There is a tolerant and peaceful side to the character of Pig types. Such people are never afraid to allow others their freedom of expression; they do not want to cause arguments and if there is any way to avoid arguing, they will probably take this option. They are not weak, however, and if the situation forces them to fight these people will rise to the occasion, whether it is to defend themselves or those close to them. People of the Boar type are the most admired by others.

Gah Gah For Goo Goo
We went to see the Goo Goo Dolls last night. They put on a great show. Their sound was fantastic. It was like their Cd's, but so much better. so many times you go see someone live and are let down. It was fantastic!
The thing that caught my attention was that there wasn't really that many lighters burning in the air, they have been replaced with the warm glow of cell phone screens!
