The coolest thing happened today.

The coolest thing happened today. But first let me start with a little background. Back in June I had sent a “Wanted: Digital Camera” post to Vancouver FreeCycle and received a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P73 which worked fine except for the flash. No problem since it has lots of low light settings. Thank you fellow FreeCycler Gaye Ferguson! What I really liked about this camera was its ability to take video with sound, and I’d been using it to post church testimonies and such on YouTube. Recently the… Continue

They want to take responsibility for handling their own problems observing their inadequate methods of dealing with stress, learning new techniques to improve their habits, and then practicing these techniques on a regular basis. (or you may want more… Continue

Message from Your Health

The fact is, if we are thin, it does not mean that we are entirely healthy. After I read the statement for the first time, I thought that it is impossible to achieve physical, mental and social well-being at the same time, so every single human on earth is not healthy. In my mind, this is unachievable, this is "bullshit".

Lots of people today today think that I always exercise, therefore, I am very healthy and grateful! Is this true?

After a while, I finally understand the stat… Continue

Look it Up, Mary

My Mom couldn’t stand to have a question and not have the answer to it. Our small farm house had two sets of encyclopedias when I was growing up. We couldn’t afford the World Book from the salesman that came by, but my resourceful father found a Funk and Wagnall’s set at a garage sale. It was the subject of many jokes on Laugh-In, but in our household it was a prized possession The set was only 5 years old and had fairly recent information. Through the years, we acquired a used set of Encycloped… Continue

lesson

I think this is my rebirth, for according to me rebirth is when one misses a lifetime of misery in the nick of time. This near miss can be a result of a number of factors, internal and external. But when we trusts God or some superpower and are in trouble (read “deep shit”) i firmly believe that the entire universe conspires to keep you safe and happy. I agree it’s better to follow your instincts, but sometimes one is blinded by short term happiness and fails to see the larger picture. And in th… Continue

Volunteering in your pyjamas!

Most people think of volunteering as joining a group of people at a certain place and a certain time to perform actions that benefit others. These days, there seems to be alot more that you can do to help others from within your own home - even whilst still dressed in your own pyjamas! This to me is a mindset change as I think people aren't even aware that you can help charities / worthy causes beyond your own doorstep. Almost everybody I know has no idea about these micro volunteer opportuniti… Continue
