Do elephants paint themselves as their self-portrait?

There is a video that is making the circles on youtube and facebook about elephants painting.

There is a lot of ooh and aaah, fascination, love of animals, and the paintings can sell for a lot of money…

So I first researched, then muscletested if in fact the elephants are

1. self aware
2. if they paint the pictures on their own accord… because it just didn’t feel right.

This is how LifeHacker writes about not having enough time

time is a concept

I Don’t Have Time is a lie

Not enough time to exercise. Not enough time to cook healthy meals. Not enough time to clean. Not enough time to pursue hobbies. Sound familiar? We’ve all said things like this before, but as Nerd Fitness points out, “I don’t have enough time” is a lie.

We don’t have enough time in the day for everything we might want to do, but we must have enough time for our priorities.

Whenever you find yourself thinking “I don’t have time” change it to “It’s not a priority.”

I found a page of a photographer that amazed me. I use a lot of photos in this blog, and sometimes I wonder how the photographer made the photo: I sure don’t know how to do tricks like that, although I like taking pictures and I have thousands of published photos…

Here is a little taste:

Here is the link to the page. There is a video there too, that I could not link to directly.

This story is so similar to what we are doing, you and I

I rarely cry when I read a story, but this story made me cry. It’s about a handful (9) misfits that made history, that didn’t quit when it made sense to quit, didn’t stop until they lived in a way that matched their vision of a life worth living.

When I look at my work, I see myself as a misfit that doesn’t know when to quit. And when I look at you, I am proud to have attracted a small crew of misfits that don’t quit. Continue reading “This story is so similar to what we are doing, you and I”

What You Spend your Money on Tells Your Story, your purpose

what you buy is what you want to beWe’ve been looking at this question: what is the purpose of your life, and how do you get to it.

I got an email this morning that talks to that really well… so I tweaked so it can talk to you… Read it, it is very enlightening.

Pleasure and Happiness – What You Buy Tells Your Story

Do not confuse pleasure with happiness.
Unhappy people can have pleasure.
And uninterrupted pleasures are not happiness.

Happiness is the result of knowing and accepting who you are, why you are here, and what you should do

You need identity, purpose, and adventure

It’s time to laugh. It’s all bs, deception, illusion

Comets and the horns of MosesI am reading a Kindle book, Comets and the Horns of Moses (The Secret History of the World) by Laura Knight-Jadczyk 1

The book is 700 pages, and hard to read, so I don’t recommend it: I will write about it, it will be as good as reading it. Not here, not now, I first want to finish it, I am 40% through.
