If I only had a clone....

Greetings!
Another day in our wonderful snow globe world has given me the feeling of winter bliss.  Despite my longings to go outside I find myself stuck inside finishing up homework and cleaning my house.  If only I had a clone that would clean for me, maybe cloning wouldn’t be so bad after all, but maybe it would be bad.  Cloning is a fascinating subject and after watching the movie entitled “The Island” it really brought to life how cloning humans could possibly become a legal and profitable endeavor.  In the movie, the characters lived in this sort of world where they are lead to believe that the civilization has come to an end and they were all living there is a sort of facility as this was the only safe place to be.  Every so often one of the people in this facility would get chosen to go to this elusive island to live and never return to the facility.  As the movie unravels it is discovered that society outside this facility did in fact exist and these people where the clones of people living in society.  As people from the facility were chosen to go to the island that is when they were actually medically needed to fulfill their purpose of being a living organ donor for their purchasers outside the facility.  This was a great movie and I would defiantly recommend it.  The idea of having a clone sounds appealing but in reality this concept could be a highly ethical debate.  Scientists work every day cloning body parts and saving many peoples lives, but one wonders if we possible could ever really have a clone out there or not??

January 20th

We all have thought and dreams
Living in a world of steam
What is real and what is fake
It is up to you to make

Hello to anyone who is reading, welcome to this communication. 
I am a simple person living on this planet trying to do the best I can.  On this day of January 20, 2011, I have a lot to give thanks for.  So I will say thank you right now. 
Today is a beautiful winter day, on this day I ended my day with a nice cross country ski.  Tomorrow we are getting another snowstorm.  It amazes me that we are getting so much snow.  I am hopeful that there will be many more opportunities for outdoor activities so that I will be able to go out and actually enjoy the snow that we are getting.  I am hoping that everything gets cancelled tomorrow; I love days that you can unexpectedly stay home and be leisurely. 
I have many goals for the New Year; I am becoming more organized, regaining creativity, being on time and exercising more.  Every day I am trying to do something to get closer to my goals.  I am currently enjoying a pottery class and started to sew again.  I want to get rid of what I do not need on a daily basis and remove all the clutter from my life.  De cluttering life is an important task; it can change how we feel every day. 
For now I will say good night-till next time.
