Earthhour 2009, One Billion and Beyond

Earth hour is one of the most important events of our time. For one hour, once a year, millions of people around the globe, including whole cities and corporations will turn off their lights. This may seem small, but the impact is amazing. Last year alone, that one hour saved an astounding amount of energy. For instance, Toronto reportedly saved 900 megawatts of electricity which roughly equates to 556 tons of CO2 emissions. The first Earth Hour occurred in Sydney, Australia in 2007 when 2.2 mi… Continue

On a More Personal Note - I Signed Up for National Novel Writing Month!

It starts November 1, and the goal is to write 50,000 in 30 days. I've already got an outline, of sorts, and I'm working on my plot points, trying to get more organized. I'm usually more of a sit down and just write it kind of person. Anyway, I'm getting really excited to get started and not just a little scared. Of course nothing bad happens if you don't make it and all you're really competing for is a certificate that says you made it, but still. I'm psyched. I've taken a few days off to write… Continue

Speak Out Against Puppy Mills and Elephant Abuse!

Hey, I know I'm becoming the petition queen here, but I really believe in these causes. First, there is a petition put forth by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) and Care2 condemning the "Greatest Show on Earth" for their treatment of the captive show elephants. The allegations include, "hitting the elephants with bull hooks, rubbing dirt into sores of elephants to conceal their wounds, and routinely chaining the elephants on concrete or in cramped rail cars f… Continue

Celebrate Earth Day by Speaking Out for Jaguars, Polar Bears and other Imperiled Wildlife

South Africa to Allow Culling (Killing) of its Elephant Herds by Trophy Hunters

Hey Everyone! Here's a way to make a monumental change. I have provided a link to a petition to help save the Elephants. As you know, elephants are highly intelligent mammals that live together in familty groups. It takes 22 months for a new calf to be born. I don't know what other posible conservation efforts the government considered, but this is unacceptable. Many people on gather have and are signing the petition. I hope you will check it out for yourselves and sign it too. Thanks, Tracey… Continue

Bloggers Unite In Acts of Kindness

I'm afraid I'm a bit late with my act of kindness. I've been putting together a box for the Baby James Foundation for Children of Abuse with new and used clothing and new books and toys. I just haven't gotten it finished. I hope to mail it today or tomorrow at the latest. Thankfully, kindness has no expiration date!

Monumental Lives For Monumental Change: ....Join Us!

We Making The Difference!" The Steps Toward A Better World Begin With The Steps Taken To Better Oneself! "A foundation is but the base and it is the collection of building blocks that creates what many should strive to ascend."


Living a monumental life doesn't necessarily mean possession of a large financial fortune or living in the spotlight of public adoration and fame. What I think it means is that you act in accordance with your own identity while acting in ways that are positive and conducive to happiness, serenity and harmony. What I think it means is that you generate positive energies and in turn, your positive energies have a positive effect on others. Linkin' Monuments-- a positive chain of energy! Read More>>>

The Thirteen Reasons

1.) You are as important as the next person
2.) Your contributions to this world are as monumental as the next person
3.)You believe in yourself because you know you "can"
4.)You believe in your neighbors because you know they "can"
5.)No matter how difficult it may seem, you are not alone.
6.)You deserve as much respect as does the next person
7.)Don't wonder so much what your life might have been but put into action what you want your life to become.
8.)You matter because we all matter.
9.)Enough failures will lead to success once you succeed in failing to give up.
10.)This world has so much to offer and you have so much more to offer it.
11.)You have many talents and abilities...a few which may have yet to be uncovered.
12.)The treasures you may seek are near enough the heart that it wouldn't take more than a heartbeat to uncover the most precious gems of all.
13.)You are here because you belong!

Welcome!

The Three Conditions

1.)This network is for one and for all...No matter what color, what creed or belief, what political affiliation you subscribe or what candidate you endorse this network is open to you.
2.)As in any community each one of us has our own unique personalities, traits, belief systems, talents and as long as any of these elements are not breaches against the prosperity of the community then they should be allowed, accepted and honored. Community is about diversity. This is a Community
3.)It is my greatest hope that we learn from each other. Each one of us has so much to offer. No one here is better or smarter or more talented than the next person. Each one of us has our strengths; each one of us has our weaknesses. Your strength in one area is of great benefit to my weakness in that same area. A simple philosophy of mine: "A greedy mine is to learn, yet not teach & A lazy mind is to yearn, yet not reach" Let us not be greedy, let us not be lazy.
