Any way, even though I had my name ... shoot ... I have many websites with lots of various stuff found in my daily travels around the Internet and beyond.
One of my domain names I registered as a business name to match my talents to my goals perfectly :-) but as the Law of Attraction is more *perfect* names came along as well. This was more along the lines of life purpose than *career pathing* or some other catch-phrase of the day ... as more leave *the rat race* (through thier choice or an others) and follow THIER dreams, more will lose the *old way* of doing things and begin to do things the way each who do them are to do so ... and I speak in riddles :-)
