I think I understand why some people don't like cats. But you dont have to take it personal if a cute animal does not like you and chose not to be your fiend. Accepting rejection is part of life... and personal grow. On the other hand, if you haven't read the book "12 rules for life" By Jordan...

Death is part of life.
Yes. This is true. As true as death and taxes: inevitable. Some moments of your life will define who you are, in the same way the people around you will affect you... for good or worse. Just like that time that I was watching too much Power Rangers. :) Enjoy. The Random Guy.
