Everest.\u00a0 But it is not.<\/p>\n<p>If we define the &#8220;highest spot&#8221; as that which is closest to the moon, stars, etc., then Mt. Chimborazo in Ecuador is an incredible 1.5 miles higher due to the oblate spheroid shape of the earth.\u00a0 Since our heads are way up in the clouds, we might as well continue with some lofty thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>Another little item.\u00a0 Again, it is all how you look at things.\u00a0 Do you ever feel like you know someone, or have been in the same exact situation before?\u00a0 The same exact time? Perhaps had a Deja Vu?<\/p>\n<p>It seems I have this notion quite often, in several different circumstance.\u00a0\u00a0 For instance, I am the Queen of Clean.\u00a0 I like it clean.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t matter what \u201cit\u201d is really.\u00a0 IF it is clean, it is better.\u00a0 Pig sty?\u00a0 That would be better without that mud and grime and dirt.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I was just thinking about &#8220;Cleaner Shrimp&#8221; \u2014 You know.\u00a0 They are any of those decapod crustacean that feeds off parasites living on fish.<\/p>\n<p>They are kind of cool.\u00a0 Those little cleaner shrimp will do a little dance to attract their dirty fish.\u00a0 And wouldn\u2019t you know?\u00a0 The fish are taken in by the choreographed moves.\u00a0 So then, the fish \u201cstrikes a pose\u201d which signals the cleaner shrimp to start washing and waxing like an underwater car wash.\u00a0 I was probably a cleaner shrimp in another life. Pretty sure of it.<br \/>\nNot only do I like to clean, I like to dance.<\/p>\n<p>Here is another.\u00a0 The length of your ring finger in comparison to your index finger indicates the amount of testosterone you were exposed to as a fetus. Longer ring fingers equates to more testosterone.\u00a0\u00a0 Oh oh.\u00a0 My Mom must have been chock full of testosterone when I was in the womb. Go figure.<\/p>\n<p>It is all how you look at it.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t see many fold out maps any more.\u00a0\u00a0 Or really, any maps in the printed form.\u00a0 Dab nab it anyhow. I like paper maps. There used to be tons.\u00a0 Treasure maps.\u00a0 Floor plan maps.\u00a0 AAA maps\u2026. with yellow highlighter on them.<\/p>\n<p>These days, about the only maps we see\u2026 with the exception of computer generated Google Maps and the likes\u2026\u00a0 are those which are displayed in zoos, and museums, and on large city streets.<\/p>\n<p>They are the ones with the <strong>\u201cYou Are Here\u201d<\/strong> icons.\u00a0 Did you know it has a name?\u00a0 The small &#8220;You Are Here&#8221; sticker that indicates your position on a map has a name indeed \u2014 it&#8217;s called an Ideo Locator.<\/p>\n<p>You are here.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for being here.<\/p>\n<p>The Ideo Locator is on me.\u00a0 Literally.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>\u2014 Wayne Dyer<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Hold the Vision.\u00a0 Trust the Process.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>\u2014 Unknown<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>It&#8217;s not what you look at that matters, it&#8217;s what you see.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>\u2014 Henry David Thoreau<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>\u2014 Jonathan Swift<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is all how you look at it.
