The guy above is a little snail; I lovingly named him Tiny. Shortly after this picture was taken, my cute little pup--Rufus--tried to eat him. Fortunately for Tiny, I was there to protect him; Rufus and I moved on, leaving Tiny to his, what I'm sure was, much important business. 
  Children Report Visions of the Virgin Mary in Fátima, Portugal (1917)In 1917, three children were herding sheep in Fátima when, according to their story, the Virgin Mary appeared to them. They claimed that she continued to appear to them on the 13th of every month, relaying messages and prophesies. Word of the visions spread, and at one point, the children were arrested. Then, on October 13, thousands reported seeing the sun spin in the sky near Fátima, which became a pilgrimage site. Two of the children died before the age of 12. What happened to the third? More...

You saved Tiny!
Don't worry, he'll be eaten by a bigger fish soon. :)
Glad to hear I'm not the only one who respects all living creatures...I'm always being teased as I spend my life "saving" insects and little living creatures - I never swat flies or even mosquitos..:)
Tiny is cute! Can we have some pics of Rufus?
Tiny is probably telling all his shell friends about you tonight.
Btw, the quote is awesome. Let's be happy NOW! :)

Greg would not like this picture. Lol. We get snails all the time and he likes to walk barefoot outside at night, when the little snails are out the most - ewww when he steps on one (doesn't do it on purpose mind you)
What a pretty shell!
And I love that quote. So very true.
Cute snail... living dangerously though!

You are much more patient than I. Not swatting at a mosquito would be very tough for me.
