You are a free, immensely powerful source of life & goodness. Affirm It! Spread It! Radiate It! Think about it day and night and you will see a miracle happen - the greatness of your own life!'

When you look at someone like Patrick Swayze, who recently lost his battle to pancreatic cancer, he fought his cancer with a ferocity that most of us couldn\'t even muster up when we are well. Rather, discovering that you have been diagnosed with cancer doesn\'t have to be a death sentence. Rather, there is ongoing research taking place that is working hard to find a cure for this disease. There are plenty of things that we can do on our own to help both ourselves and others in their fight against cancer.
The next time you want to get involved in the fight for a cure against cancer, look no further than your own computer screen. If you simply Google the term ‘cancer', there are tons of websites, blogs and support groups that show up. Additionally, there are numerous ways to get involved in the fight for a cure such as purchasing items such as designer t-shirts, jewelry or other unique products. The revenue that is generated from something as small as a silicone bracelet in support of cancer goes towards cancer research.
Every day, we get a little closer to finding a cure for different types of cancers. What\'s even more reassuring as well as incredible is the fact that we have already found a cure for many types of different cancers already. This fact alone gives other people who have been diagnosed with cancer, hope that they, too, will one day experience the joy of living a life that is cancer free surrounded by those who love and care for them. By looking at cancer more objectively and showing an outpouring of support, it is the hope of many that one day cancer will be akin to nothing more than the common cold.
Enterprising People
Sam Garton graduated from Derby University in 2005 with a BA Hons in illustration. He now spends pretty much every spare minute he has on illustration of one type or another. His current obsession is with otters, and in particular one little character he's been working on for a while..
Otter is an innocent little thing who lives with Otter Keeper, and Teddy (her loyal companion who more often than not takes the blame when things go wrong). The stories are aimed at children and adults alike. Otter's world is a confusing little place for her, and while children will empathise with some of her naivety, adults can chuckle along with Otter Keeper's frustrations at her simplistic views on life.
To find out more about Otter, and follow her stories make sure you visit www.iamotter.co.uk. These works are created from original pen and pencil drawings, coloured using a mixture of traditional watercolours and digital techniques."
