I thought I'd share with you some of what I'm doing to change the world... at least what I hope to.
Someone once told me, "Lower your expectations of others and you'll be a much happier person."
Well that may be true, but it's not part of my makeup. I'm forever hopeful that others will care about and act on the things that I care about.
We all have missions we're on and have something we wish to share with others. I thought I'd share with you some of what I'm doing to change the world... at least what I hope to change.

How every relationship we have brings out our best qualities.
In the way that great artists approach their masterpieces, our loving relationships sculpt us into the highest and best form of ourselves. This is their only job and their highest purpose. We entrust our loved ones to mirror and elicit from us the aspirations and values we hold so dear, so that in turn, the commitment to our relationships also becomes a commitment to ourselves.
How men and women look at art sheds light on gender differences.
A new study out yesterday found, the way women and men understand art might help us to understand how both sexes make sense of their surroundings. The study gives the example that women are hopeless when it comes to direction and men are more apt to lose things. And although this might be semi-true (I am pretty pathetic when it comes to getting around town), I have friends who could rival Bear Grylls from Man Vs. Wild—But that is neither here, nor there. What's more important? When researchers showed men and women pieces of art, they discovered that, while only the right hemisphere of the man's brain lit up, both hemispheres of the woman's became engaged.
