Adversity is something everyone experiences. Currently, our entire country is feeling some sort of adversity. Everyone either knows of someone, or are themselves, in financial difficulties. Like some sort of Snidely Whiplash, the economy is robbing us of everything including our homes. People are edgy, nasty and cannot see beyond their own need. We are like lions on a carcass growling at anyone who may appear on the horizon. We are no longer friendly because being nice is weakness and right now the only thing that is taught on the streets is ‘The Eye of the Tiger’.
Every year, People Magazine announces its predictable pick for the Sexiest Man Alive, accompanied by its list of the Top Sexiest Male Celebrities of the year. But aren't Brad Pitt and Hugh Jackman just a little played at the moment? Which celebrities does the average woman think are hot stuff? Here's my list; enjoy!
How often have you been sitting in a movie theater or in your own family room watching a DVD and had the thought: “My life is way more interesting than this!”? What if you could make your life into a movie?

- Michael Jordan (NBA Basketball Player)
One of the greatest basketball players of all time admits that he failed not hundreds, but thousands of times.
Can you believe that? How could such a phenomenal player be such a failure?
This weekend I attended a different charity function: “Hope for the Children” – a Benefit Concert to raise awareness and funds to help the over 50 million orphans in the world. Many of these children have no home, want for food and clothes, and lack the gift of love. American Idol’s Brooke White volunteered her time and talent to provide the headline performance.
UNITED NATIONS – In James Cameron’s Blockbuster hit Avatar, an indigenous people called the Na’vi try to fend off a private military force from invading their mineral-rich land.

Because of Minggus and Moob (my online etsy shop) I have become familiar with some amazing crafters through their Etsy shops, blogs, or books. I wish, wish , wish, I could meet them all for real and take in the talent and creativity that pours out of them like a perfect river flowing into the greater scope of the art and design ocean that is all around us, but a lass this is just a dream and my creative creek will have to do.
I sometimes wonder whether sportsmen are allowed private lives? Whilst it is true that several have used the media to their own needs, I often find myself asking what right the tabloids have to persistently invade the private lives of sportsmen. The Beckhams have put up with it all their lives, although possibly there is less sympathy for them given that they have never been shy of courting the press ...
Review of the 30 Seconds to Mars MEN Arena concert in Manchester, part of the Into the Wild tour. A wild crazy night of awesomeness. Mexican waves rippling through the arena, glow stick crazy Echelon members and Jared Leto rocking a magnificent Mowhawk and singing like a demon (albeit a super talented one). Echelon members wearing their purple pride and a gorgeous set list made up of tracks from their albums 'Into the Wild' and 'Beautiful Lie' plus the track 'Capricorn' from their self titled debut... Please read!

I am a simple person trying to find my way in life. Sometimes I get lost... really lost which is how this blog came about. I figured that the only way for me to find myself was to write about my opinions.
