You might be wondering why I’m talking about myself in the third person, and why it is that I think I’m so great. Actually, I’m not, and I don’t. You see, my goal in life is to be great, to be magnificent, but that’s a long, long way off. A Google search for myself reveals something else though, and I think that it is very telling. Picture this young fellow (lady, apparently).

Toefur the Magnificent

The first thing you will notice is that this cat is guilty of a very, very serious case of copyright infrigement. Apparently having my name trademarked isn’t enough to stop the casual citizenry naming their cats Toefur. The next thing you will notice, however, is that this Toefur, unlike me, is magnificent. How do I know? Because the Google result spake, “Toefur the Magnificent.” And thus, Toefur, the cat, is magnificent. You can pretty much tell this from the picture, though. He looks magnificent. The way he (sorry, apparently it’s a she) stands, that look on her face says: hey, drop everything, i am magnificent. He also looks pretty scholarly.

Toefur, the cat, is at the stage in life where I would like to be. Magnificent. She’s got it made. She knows what life is about, she has everything under control. Maybe it’s a bit easier when you’re a cat, someone feeds you, gives you cuddles when you want them, and provides you with plenty of different and interesting places to sleep. What else could you ask for?

I ask for a lot, because I’m not at that stage yet, I am just beginning my journey now. I don’t even know where it will go, I don’t even know where the metaphorical different and interesting places to sleep are. So, I begin this journey as Toefur the Definately-Not-Magnificent.

Time to work for greatness, rather than to just hope for it…
