I may be single again, but I’m certainly not alone. I’ve never had trouble making friends, and, I’ve been making more new ones in recent weeks than I had in the previous year altogether.  And yes, some of them are men. And no, I’m not naive enough to believe they really just want to be friends, but that doesn’t mean it has to go their way, either. In fact, right now, I’m enjoying spending time by myself, and am very protective of the extra space that’s been allowing me to reinvent myself as the philanthropist I’ve always wanted to be. And it all starts with my newly registered business Cause for Action. For a couple years now, I’ve turned the idea for this business ’round and ’round in my head, even getting a weak start last year designing a very uninspired website.  All that changed last month when the business finally became a stepping stone to completing a couple real projects that I’ve been pouring myself into  – heart and soul. The first is a documentary project that I can’t reveal at this time, as it’s pending sponsorship. The second, is a fund-raising event called Compassion is in Fashion, that will feature local “celebrities” walking the catwalk accompanied by adoptable canines. Nothing gives me a greater sense of purpose than having an outward focusing goal – to facilitate the adoption of 40 lovable canines in the year that I turn 40. So, for a substantial period of time I will be turning my attention away from this blog, to spend time on these two important projects. You can catch me at www.causeforaction.com and www.causeforaction.com/blog to learn more, and hopefully, help spread the word on some issues that are near and dear to my heart. I hope to see you over there!
