I know it's been awhile since I posted and I apologize to my "readers". I promise I will try to do better. Here's another "inspiration" for you ... I think it's just beautiful.

God's Cake
God's cake...
This is about the best thing I've ever read as an explanation.
Sometimes we wonder, 'What did I do to deserve this?' or 'Why did God have to do this to me?' Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how everything is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving away. Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, 'Absolutely Mom, I love your cake.'
'Here, have some cooking oil,' her Mother offers.
'Yuck' says her daughter.
'How about a couple raw eggs?' 'Gross, Mom!'
'Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?'
'Mom, those are all yucky!'
To which the mother replies: 'Yes , all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake! '
God works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful!
God is crazy about you. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning. Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your heart.
If you like this, send this on to the people you really care about.
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance!

Prayer of the Day
Open Our Minds and Hearts
I pray that we may at all times keep our minds open to new ideas and shun dogma; that we may grow in our understanding of the nature of all living beings and our connectedness with the natural world; that we may become ever more filled with generosity of spirit and true compassion and love for all life. I pray that we may learn the peace that comes with forgiving and the strength we gain in loving; that we may learn to take nothing for granted in this life; that we may learn to see and understand with our hearts; that we may learn to join in our being.

NEW THINGS COMING!
I've decided to start putting other things on Tasha's Blog ... inspiration type of things from her. Believe it or not, our furbabies are watching over us. I believe that they, like those human loved ones who have gone before us, aren't watching every second of every day (not that they have that sort of time thing in Paradise/Rainbow Bridge) but if we need either our human or furbabies at sometime in our life, they know and come to us.
Enjoy.

From the Daily Cat Tip
Up, up and away: A great toy for cats
by Kelly Modzelewski, Dog and Cat Writer
I was watching children play with a bubble machine the other day. Then, a dog came up and started chasing the bubbles around. I thought: "What great exercise!" and it dawned on me that it would work equally as well for cats. There are even bubble machines for pets! Or use a kid's bubble machine. And make sure to use non-toxic bubbles. You can also make your own solution with 2 cups non-toxic dishwashing liquid, 6 cups water, 3/4 cup white Karo syrup.
