Mission-oriented and focused on her task, she charged into the grocery parking lot with gusto, not realizing that her life would be furrever changed by the tiny kitten thrust in her arms. Sometimes, Fate has a different plan for us, even when we are just on a strike mission to the grocery store to get a dozen eggs.
