What does it mean to be a goat?  People born in the Year of Sheep are tender, polite, filial, clever, and kind-hearted. They have special sensitivity to art and beauty and a special fondness for quiet living. They are wise, gentle and compassionate and can cope with business cautiously and circumspectly. In their daily life, they try to be economical. They are willing to take good care of others, but they should avoid pessimism and hesitation.

Perspective

When you think of a penny, they are everywhere, most are viewed as meaningless, and unimportant.  However, if you take the time and gather enough pennies, as a collective they have the power to to become something meaningful, and important. Alone a penny is just a penny, but 100 pennies can make a difference. What if we were no longer talking about pennies, what if we were talking about People?  Could you be the Missing Penny?
