愛情是專一的，請記好

2011-03-12T23:39:00.000+08:00

不要因為害怕彼此離開而體諒。

體諒是因為愛，而不是因為恐懼。

愛是一種責任，不可以輕易的離開。讓你為離開而恐懼的人，算不上愛人，就算付出再多，要離開的人，終究是會離開。

不要覺得不瞭解也會有愛情。

在不瞭解的時候，我們僅僅是喜歡，達不到愛情。

當彼此的缺點暴露出來以後，很多時候這喜歡也就會結束了。

愛是寬容，愛著彼此的一切。愛上不瞭解的人，或許，你愛的只是他的新奇罷了。

不要相信對你說不介意你跟異性過於親密的人。

這樣的人不是騙你就是在玩你，或者根本就不在意你。

你會不介意你的愛人和異性親密到忘記你存在的地步麼？

想想就知道了。或者，他本身就不介意在幾個異性之間周旋。

不要在幾個異性間周旋。

愛情是2個人的存在，容不下第三個人。

凡是覺得可以左擁右抱的無非是網上言情小說看多的人。

愛情是專一的，請記好。

不要給彼此太多的壓力。

適當的和異性保持距離，對你們的愛情是有好處的。

過近的距離，也許會在不經意間，做出讓彼此難堪的舉動。

不要去欺騙你的愛人。

記得，若你沒有騙他一輩子的把握，那麼便對他說實話。

當謊言一再被揭穿的時候，有可能一切都結束了。

不要覺得樣貌會成為很大的障礙。

60年後，有沒有人能沒有皺紋，沒有白髮？誰又能不變衰老，不變矮小。

也許你沒有貌，但你有才。也許你沒有才，但你溫柔。

也許你沒有溫柔，但你.......也許你什麼都沒有，但是也許，他正愛著你的平凡。

不要把周圍的環境看的太重。

談戀愛的是你們，和周圍的人又有什麼關係。

但是請善待彼此的家人，朋友。很多東西，只是給自己的藉口罷了。

不要認為他愛你便不會離開你。

在你的一再傷害下，他也會離開，因為你不懂得珍惜，不值得他去愛。

懂得珍惜，才能懂得愛情。

不要因為衝動說一些過激的話。

沒有人願意拿熱情換冷漠，拿體貼換傷害

衝動的話語，也許已經傷透了他的心。釘下一顆釘子容易，但是拔起它，你是否能修復好柵欄上的洞呢？？

如果你已經說了，那麼請道歉，用你的溫柔去儘量彌補，只是~是否有用就無法確定了。

不要玩失蹤。

動輒無故失蹤十天半個月的人，很難給人安定的感覺。也同樣會讓人為你的安全而擔心。

不要去踐踏自己的尊嚴。你可以沒有他，但不能沒有沒有自己的尊嚴。記得，他不愛你，你做什麼他都看不到。

不要輕易許下承諾。

做不到的承諾，比沒許下更可惡。也許很多男女都喜歡那一張張空頭支票，

但當你發現每一張都不能兌現的時候，你還會愛著這個騙子麼？

不要給不愛的人任何希望。

希望越大，失望就越大。也許你只是喜歡被人愛的感覺吧，

但是當失望來臨的時候，你也許會因為你的貪婪，而被對方厭惡。

不要後悔。

不管做了什麼選擇，是不是正確的選擇。請不要後悔。

時間不可能倒流，每個人都要為每個人的過錯承擔責任。

很多時候，錯過的就再也回不來了。

女孩每天臨睡會先關掉手機然後把它放在寫字台自己的相框架前這個習慣從買了手機的時候就這樣保持著。

女孩有個很要好的男朋友兩個人不見面的時候就打打電話或發發短信大家都喜歡這樣的聯絡方式。

有一天夜裡，男孩很想念女孩子，打了過去卻關機，因為女孩子已經睡著了。

第二天，男孩對女孩子說：“以後晚上不要關機，好嗎？我想你的時候找不到你，心會不安。”

從那以後，女孩開始另一種習慣整夜都不關機。因為害怕他打來自己會因睡著而聽不到，女孩夜夜都很警醒，人便日日消瘦。

然而，慢慢地，兩個人之間還是有了裂痕。

女孩很想挽回即臨分手的局面便在一個深夜裡給男孩打電話回答她的是很好聽的女聲：sorry，你所撥打的電話已關機。　　

於是女孩知道，她的愛情已經關機。

很久以后，女孩有了另一場愛情。即使兩個人在一起的感覺也很好，但女孩怎麼也不肯嫁。女孩的心裡還是會想起那個男孩的話和那個關機的夜。女孩還是保持著整夜不關機的習慣，只是不再期待它會響起。

一天夜裡，女孩身染急症，慌亂之中把本想撥給父母的電話，卻打通了這個男孩的電話，這個男孩沒關機。女孩平安地恢復了健康。

後來女孩問男孩：“為什麼深夜還不關機？”

男孩說：“我怕你夜裡有事情找不到我，會心慌。”

女孩最終嫁給了男孩。

是啊，你的手機，深夜裡為誰開？你會不會怕她找不到而心慌，

愛一個人，有一份等待，就會在深夜裡習慣性的開機。

有一個可以開機等候你的人，那是一種深深的幸福

词:孙维君作曲:凌伟文

叶子在窗外轻摇动人行道没有行人走
过镜子里的我很不像我自从你离开了
我变得很软弱你的影子在每一个角落
好像是在提醒着我少了你的陪伴我现在有多寂寞
我想我可以习惯一个人生活我想我可以假装不曾爱过
冰的夜里让眼泪温热我
感觉如果要走谁能说 No
我想我可以习惯一个人生活
在记忆里面擦去你的承诺
爱你怎么会是这个结果
爱情是个梦而我睡过头

感言:

一個我很懷念的歌手和一首我很懷念的歌
陪伴我走過那一段失意的時候

这些日子过得是有点茫然重新开始没有我想的简单
感觉心好空什么都填不满发呆就成了习惯
逞强若无其事或许太为难我和多数的人一样的平凡
也该用倾诉去释放掉伤感对所有情绪坦然
请放心给我时间我总会想通
让泪水一滴不留才能真解脱
最多你递手帕给我其余别说用朋友的温柔
请放心给我时间我总会想通
女人有依靠就难克制软弱
我想我该会再记得怎么享受久违了(我)的自由

感言:

也有一段時間每聽這一首歌了
每一次聽起都有一些些的感觸
痛苦的那一段隨著歲月漸漸的淡化了
感謝所有讓我成長的人與事
沒有當天的痛苦經歷
就不會造就了今天的我

謝謝你!!!

沉默秘密 by 龔柯允

2009-12-29T02:44:00.005+08:00

沉默.秘密

詞:黃明志曲:張捷惟

我在房间里读着过去
一句句温馨都是你的口气
舍不得删除的大道理

这里的空气非常安静
像昨天一样等待一封简讯
和曾让我微笑的声音

当爱情过了有效期
时间拉长距离
只能用等待交换一个原因

你用沉默当作你的回应
试图把伤害调降到最低
也许这是你完美的算计
却让我傻傻等待奇迹

你用沉默守住你的秘密
怎舍得让我越等越伤心
请用一句话让我伤到彻底
不要不言不语期盼着我忘记

这里的空气非常安静
像昨天一样等待一封简讯
和曾让我微笑的声音

当爱情过了有效期
时间拉长距离
只能用等待交换一个原因

你用沉默当作你的回应
试图把伤害调降到最低
也许这是你完美的算计
却让我傻傻等待奇迹

你用沉默守住你的秘密
怎舍得让我越等越伤心
请用一句话让我伤到彻底
不要不言不语期盼着我忘记

也许这是你完美的算计
却让我傻傻等待奇迹

你用沉默守住你的秘密
怎舍得让我越等越伤心
请用一句话让我伤到彻底
期盼着我忘记

~ 今天 1，11，2009 在youtube 看到一则MTV 里面的lyrics每一字一句都深深的打中我内心深处隐藏的回忆，

一些我以为我已经放下的包袱，原来我还没完全放下。。。

曾经有许多的朋友对我说，`你对男人的认识真的太少了，当他们选择沉默以对，就证明他们想把对你的伤害减到最低或他们有愧于心，你为什麽还要这样继续顽固要去发掘真相，那又何苦呢！‘

可能近年开始接触了很多灵修的课程，让我了解到`凡事必有因，凡是事必有果’的道理，我也不知道该如何去解释，可能是我本身的问题吧，我真得很想把我和你纠结的这一颗心结给打开，我本来不想再多打扰你了，可是我真的办不到，我真的很想让你知道，有时候沉默带来的伤害真的远比坦诚来的深，可能是我的固執吧，在一些事情还没清楚的解决前，我可能一辈子都不会释怀．．．

老实说到现在我还在为我们无疾而终感到很无奈，我为我的任性感到很自责，不应该赌气走开，应该把事情说清楚，就不会把自己搞到进了忧郁症，我不能怪谁，只能怪自己没有以成熟的态度去解决事情吧。

今天我又一次不由自主的写了这一封email我不知道这一次会否石沉大海，但我肯定你的心不是钢铁造的.我真的衷心希望你会回覆我，也希望我這不速之客沒有为你带来不必要的困扰．．．

Eating Fruits‏

2009-11-15T22:09:00.005+08:00

It's long but very informative

We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how and when to eat.

What is the correct way of eating fruits?

IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS! * FRUITS SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH.

If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.

FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD.Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so.

In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.

So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You have heard people complaining — every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc — actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat!

Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes all these will NOThappen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.

There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.

When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins.

But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!

KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E & fiber. Its vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.

APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke.

STRAWBERRY: Protective Fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessel-clogging free radicals.

ORANGE : Sweetest medicine. Taking 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer.

WATERMELON: Coolest thirst quencher. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene — the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C & Potassium.

GUAVA & PAPAYA:Top awards for vitamin C. They are the clear winners for their high vitamin C content. Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes.

Drinking Cold water after a meal = Cancer!

Can u believe this?? For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

A serious note about heart attacks HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)

Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to bejavascript:void(0) the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. Sixty percent of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive.

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.

Read this....It could save your life!!

The Hidden Health Secrets of Lemons

2009-11-11T12:49:00.014+08:00

Did you know the Ancient Egyptians believed that eating lemons and drinking lemon juice was an effective protection against a variety of poisons, and that recent research has confirmed this belief?

There are many health benefits of lemons that have been known for centuries. The two biggest are lemons’ strong antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-boosting powers and their use as a weight loss aid because lemon juice is a digestive aid and liver cleanser. Lemons contain many substances--notably citric acid, calcium, magnesium, vitamin C, bioflavonoids, pectin, and limonene--that promote immunity and fight infection.

These are well-known health facts about lemons. But there’s so much more to this little yellow fruit. Here are 15 that I’ll bet you didn’t know. Whether you use them in the form of juice, teas, drinks, dressing, poultices or in the bath, take advantage of lemons’ natural healing power.

Abolish Acne

Lemon contains citric acid, which can be effective in treating acne. The vitamin C found in citrus fruits is vital for that healthy glowing skin while its alkaline nature kills some types of bacteria known to cause acne. In addition to drinking lemon juice with water first thing in the morning, here are some suggestions on how to prepare a homemade acne treatment using lemon:

· With your finger or a cotton ball, apply fresh lemon juice on acne and leave it overnight. Wash with water the following morning. There may be an uncomfortable sensation of burning at first, but it will soon disappear.

· Mix one part of freshly squeezed lemon juice with an equal part of rose or honey water. Put the mixture on affected areas for at least half an hour. Wash it afterwards with water. This application should be repeated twice daily, ideally in the morning and the evening.

Note: these remedies are safe and natural, but if acne is severe or there are open wounds, consult your doctor first.

Abandon Your Anxiety

Research has shown that lemon balm has a calming effect and therefore may be able to help remove fatigue, exhaustion, dizziness, anxiety, nervousness, and tension. It is also believed that inhaling lemon oil helps in increasing concentration and alertness. It can therefore be used as a room freshener in offices to increase the efficiency of the employees. If you’re feeling tense sprinkle a few drops of lemon balm essential oil (Melissa officinalis) on a handkerchief to inhale.

Canker Sore, No More

The proven antibacterial and antiviral properties of lemons can accelerate the healing process in the case of cankers. Mix the juice of freshly squeezed lemon into a glass of lukewarm water and rinse your mouth with this solution; do this three times a day. There may be a burning sensation when the lemon juice comes into contact with the canker, however, the more frequently you use it, the less burning there will be.

Leave the Fever

Chills and fevers may be due to a variety of causes, but the lemon is always a helpful remedy. Here is a method that can ease symptoms: add the juice of 1 lemon to a cup of hot water with honey and drink at once, then every 2 hours until the fever or chill subsides.

Cold and Flu Got You Blue?

When you have a cold, the healing power of lemons works both internally, by supplying urgently required vitamin C to your defense cells, and externally, through the application of its antiviral properties to the virus on the mucous membranes in the nose and throat.

At the first indication of a cold – a runny nose or sore throat –try to give your body as much immune-boosting vitamin C as you can so that the virus is eliminated before it gets a chance to take hold. Drink the freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon in a glass of lukewarm water every 2 hours.

If you have a sore throat, add the juice of 1 lemon and 1 teaspoon (5ml) of sea salt to 1 cup (250ml) lukewarm water. Gargle three times a day for 1 minute to diminish the burning sensation. If it’s a case of tonsillitis, gargle every 2 hours for at least 30 seconds with the freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon.. Tilt the head back to allow the antibacterial and antiviral properties of the juice to flow into the back of the throat. You can swallow the juice when you have finished gargling thereby benefiting from an immune-boosting vitamin C shot.

Cure Corns and Calluses

Lemon poultices applied overnight are a good home remedy for corns and calluses. Place a slice of lemon approx 5 mm thick on to the corn, bandage and fasten. Dabbing the affected area with lemon essential oil also helps accelerate the healing process. Take care to only use the undiluted oil on the callused area using a cotton ball or Q- tip, as it is too strong for un-callused skin.

Lemons and honey

Erase Eczema

If you suffer from skin infection such as eczema, a lemon wrap may offer relief. Add 8 drops of lemon essential oil to 1 cup (250ml) lukewarm water and 1 tablespoon (15ml) of liquid honey. Honey also has anti-inflammatory effect and strengthens the healing power of lemon.

Soak a linen cloth in the liquid, squeeze out the excess, and gently place the cloth on the affected area for 15 minutes, 2 to 3 times a day. Not only will this ease the infection, it will counter the overwhelming urge to scratch.

Fight Fatigue

Long distance walkers, world travelers, and explorers look upon the lemon as a Godsend. When fatigue sets in, they might suck lemon juice by piercing the top of the fruit with a straw, giving themselves a quick-acting medicine and a lovely refreshment.

Explorers also use lemon for protection against many infections of the tropics. A small amount of lemon juice will quench thirst more effectively than many times the amount of water. Experienced travelers declare that when they add lemon juice to ordinary drinking water, in various localities, it acts as an antiseptic and prevents illness due to allergy to different water supplies.

Lemon oil also seems to be able to stimulate brain activity so whenever you feel tired for no reason or are finding it hard to focus or concentrate, add 4 drops of lemon oil to a water-filled aromatherapy lamp. Alternatively, drink a glass of lemon water every few hours.

Thin lemon slice

Hexed with Halitosis?

Lemons can help freshen breath that has gone sour after consuming certain spices, alcohol, cigarettes, or that is caused by insufficient salivation. To keep breath fresh, thoroughly rinse your mouth several times a day with the freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon in a glass of lukewarm water. Chewing on a lemon slice after every meal will also help.

Healing Hypertension

Garlic and onions have been shown to be effective in the fight against hypertension, and they combine well with the healing power of lemon. Add 3 crushed garlic cloves and 1 chopped onion to 1 quart or cold skimmed or low fat milk or soy milk. Slowly bring to the boil and let it stand for 5 minutes. Pour through a sieve and chill.

Add the freshly squeezed juice of 3 lemons and sip throughout the day.
And if you suffer from high cholesterol, don’t forget that the pectin power in lemons along with its other metabolism and circulation boosting nutrients can help lower cholesterol.

Smite a Bug Bite

If the stinger is still in the skin, take it out with a pair of tweezers. Massage 1 to 2 drops of lemon oil, mixed with 1 teaspoon of honey, into the skin around the bite.

To repel insects, add 20 drops of lemon oil to 1 cup (250ml) of water and spray into the air.. It smells great and repels insects at the same time. Another home remedy is to place a cotton ball soaked in lemon oil in your bedroom. If you are sitting outside in the evening, apply lemon scent to skin areas not covered in clothing. Or, add 10 drops of lemon oil to 1 ½ oz of sunflower oil and rub into the skin.

Put Insomnia to Rest

Several studies have found that lemon balm combined with other calming herbs (such as valerian, hops, and chamomile) helps reduce anxiety and promote sleep. In a recent double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 18 healthy volunteers received two separate single doses of a standardized lemon balm extract (300 mg and 600 mg) or placebo for 7 days. The 600 mg dose of lemon balm increased mood and significantly increased calmness and alertness.

Pulverize Pain

Even though it tastes bitter, lemon juice has a powerful alkaline effect in the body and is therefore a natural agent against excess acid, which is in part responsible for rheumatism. Drink the freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon in a glass of lukewarm water 3 times a day and if you experience severe pain add the juice of 2 lemons 3 times a day.

Lemon oil has pain-relieving qualities, so to inhibit inflammation and ease pain, massage the affected area daily with several drops of lemon oil mixed with 1 tablespoon (15ml) jojoba oil.

Save your Stomach

Drink the juice of 1 freshly squeezed lemon in a glass of lukewarm water after each meal. The lemon acid will stimulate the production of stomach acid and the activity of stomach muscles.

Say Adios to Varicose

Lemon oil has vessel-strengthening properties that can help fight varicose and spider veins. For spider veins, take 2 to 3 drops of lemon oil every day and mix in a small bowl with jojoba, avocado or almond oil and massage the affected area.

For varicose veins, add 6 drops of lemon oil to 1 ½ oz (50 ml) wheat germ oil, and 2 drops each of cypress and juniper oil. Use this mixture daily for a gentle massage of the legs from bottom to top, in the direction of the heart. For a vein and vessel-rejuvenating bath add 8 drops of lemon oil to a warm bath. Also add 4 drops of cypress oil blended with 1 tablespoon (15ml) of honey. Soak in the bath for 15 minutes and when you come out, pat your skin dry – don’t rub it.

Medical Precautions Note:

If you suffer from heartburn, kidney or gall bladder problems or have a citrus allergy consult your doctor before using these remedies or drinking lemon juice. To protect your teeth enamel, wait at least half an hour before brushing your teeth after chewing, drinking or rinsing with lemon juice. Rubbing lemon juice or oil and drinking lemon juice is not suitable for children under the age of 10. Lemons are effective home remedies for a variety of health concerns but in the case of serious illness always consult your doctor first.

Foods to Fight Your Cold

Looking for a cold remedy? Get the facts on 10 cold-fighting foods

By Chris Iliades, MD
Medically reviewed by Christine Wilmsen Craig, MD of EverydayHealth.com. © 2009

The cold and flu season lasts from September until May and accounts for more doctor visits and missed days of school and work than any other illness. The viruses that cause the common cold and flu (also called influenza) don't respond to antibiotics, and common over-the-counter cold treatments don't shorten or prevent a cold or the flu.

Although there are no sure-fire cold treatments, there are definitely some things you can do. For instance, how about eating a lot of chicken soup? Between folklore, family recipes, and science, the menu for treating colds has become quite diverse.

Cold Treatments: Chicken Soup, Anyone?

Chicken soup has been praised as a cold remedy since the time of the ancient Greeks. Twelfth-century Jewish physician Maimonides recommended chicken soup for treating colds.

A well-known study done at the Nebraska Medical Center researched whether chicken soup works as a remedy to fight colds. The study found that chicken soup contains a number of substances with healing effects — and the researchers concluded that chicken soup actually does work.

Cold Remedy: What Other Foods Are Good for You?

"Think of foods as more of an insurance policy, as a preemptive strike against winter's cold viruses," says Karen Gibson, RD, a dietitian at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston. "Unfortunately, cold viruses are very contagious, and even the healthiest of individuals can contract a cold. Even so, foods can offer some assistance in preventing a cold by helping you develop and maintain a healthy immune system."

She recommends a diet rich in the antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables. "Look for the most colorful ones: red, orange, yellow, dark green, and purple," says Gibson. "This means tomatoes, bell peppers, squash, spinach, blueberries, and eggplant, to name a few." She recommends five to seven servings a day to keep your immune system healthy.

Heidi Skolnik, MS, CDN, a dietitian and author, adds that "to help keep the sniffles and sneezes away, shop for nutrient-rich foods and beverages." She recommends foods that are high in vitamins A, B, C, and E and in potassium, zinc, and magnesium. "Live and active cultures in yogurt also pack a punch, as well as folate found in 100 percent orange juice and spinach," she says. "Load your shopping cart with immunity heroes to help maintain good health."

Top 10 Cold Remedy Foods

* 100 percent orange juice
* Avocado
* Spinach
* Tomatoes
* Bell peppers
* Broccoli
* Garlic
* Grapefruit
* Lean meat
* Yogurt

Jacob Teitelbaum, MD, an internal medicine specialist and author, notes that you should avoid foods that are high in sugar because they can decrease your immunity. "The sugar in a can of soda suppresses immune function by 30 percent for three hours," Dr. Teitelbaum says. "Avoid excess milk products if you are stuffy. Milk protein thickens mucous and makes it harder to drain." Water, on the other hand, will help keep mucus thin and easier to clear.

Finally, although there is no such thing as an absolute cold-fighting food remedy, building up your immune system can only help. "Don't forget that eating healthy is not just a winter concern," says Gibson. "Develop good eating habits and stick to them all year. You won't regret it."

刘力扬 - 眼泪笑了
作詞：蓝小邪&严云农
作曲：郑楠
专辑：我就是这样

比想象中更痛你真的没回头
我命令眼泪不许失控
回忆不跟你走都挤在我心中
我就有责任让它值得被珍重
谢谢你曾让我难过
谢谢我没有想太多
当爱情左盼右顾的时候
我眼泪都笑了谁还想哭呢
再勇敢的站着找回光和热
面对你的时候我不会舍不得
因为你已是过客因为路有些曲折
是美的
心碎成了沙漠就快开凿绿洲
我没有时间不知所措
你温柔的双手本就不属于我
又何必在乎它以后属于谁呢
谢谢你曾让我难过
谢谢我没有想太多
当爱情左盼右顾的时候
我眼泪都笑了谁还想哭呢
再勇敢的站着找回光和热
面对你的时候我不会舍不得
因为你已是过客因为路有些曲折
你眼泪都笑了谁还会哭呢
来不及完美的就唱首骊歌
想起你的时候我不是卑微的
反而我没有遗憾因为我已爱过你

Angel Number Signs & Communication

2009-09-18T01:58:00.002+08:00

By Nicole Lanning

Numbers are a wonderful way for our angels and guides in our life to communicate with us. They can show up anywhere and in multiple ways.

These types of numbers are a way to convey messages to us about issues that are going on in our lives as well as answers to questions we are asking for help on. The numbers generally show up in patterns in our lives, such as on the clock, license plates and other places you find multiple numbers. They generally come in sets of three number patterns but can come in four or more number sequences.

Here is a break down of some of the most popular number patterns and the meanings of them as they were explained to me from my work with the angels, archangels and guides.

000 - This number sign is to remember that you are one with the Universe and Spirit. This can also mean that you may be experiencing a void in your life and to reconnect!

111 - One's are an energy flow number and are to remind us to watch the things that we are doing, feeling and thinking when these numbers arrive.

123 - This is an angel's way of letting us know to go back to the basics and simply our life.

222 - Two's are a process of ascension sign, so stay strong and have faith!

321 - These patterns are shown to us during a regressive sign in our life and energy fields.

333 - Three's show up in our life during a decision based energy time. These are associated with 666 and 999 number patterns.

444 - Four's are a resurrection number and are attributed to thousands of angels surrounding you and your life at this time, so ask for their help when needed!

555 - Five's are major life changes are occurring and manifesting at this time!

666 - This is a material world number pattern, so remember to balance your thoughts.

777 - Seven's are an integration of your manifestations!

875 - This pattern is a sequence to show that your changes you are making are manifesting in your life.

888 - Eight's are an infinity sign associated with an ending and new beginning in your life.

999 - This number pattern is suggestive of a spiritual number pattern, so stay positive in your faith!

1010 - This energy pattern is to show an example of creation in progress.

1212 - This number pattern is showing us to have faith as the angels are guiding you to improve something in your life.

Keep a list handy of the multiple number meanings and how they relate to you in your life handy, as you never know where they are going to pop up. Don't try to look for them or understand them all, just ask for guidance and to be shown a sign and see how they turn up!

Dr.Tateishi’s Cancer Healing Formula

2009-09-04T14:23:00.008+08:00

by Dr.Tateishi Kazu

What This Remedy May Do:

1. Heal Cancer
2. Restore injured joints and bone structure
3. Slow down the aging process
4. Rejuvenate the skin
5. Heal Cataracts
6. Heal liver disorders
7. Lower high blood pressure
8. Improve heart conditions
9. Reduce brain tumors and other head-injury problems
10. Reduce high white blood cell counts
11. Improve T-cell function

History

When cancer strikes a family, what course of action should one take? Dr. Tateishi Kazu's father and brother both died of cancer. And then he found himself suffering from cancer of the duodenum and spreading. His stomach was removed, but the cancer cells had spread to his lungs. He resolved to fight for his life. He researched, studied and tested over 1,500 types of herbs and plants. Eventually he discovered the right combination of ingredients and formulated a unique healing vegetable soup and brown rice tea with its own molecular powers. The vegetables are rich in green chlorophyll, amino acids, iron, phosphorous, calcium, all in a natural form.
He based his soup on the principles of Five Elements theory, the harmonizing balance of the forces of yin and yang, acid and alkaline, that engenders health as opposed to the imbalance, which leads to disease.

The five elements in our environment are wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Because of the balance of the five elements, the earth is able to produce life. Dr. Tataishi Kazu used the essence of the five elements. Each essence possesses its own color: green, red, yellow, white and black. These relate to the corresponding internal organs: heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidneys. He used the concept of the five different colors as matched to specific vegetables.

• Green/Daikon Radish Leaves
• Red/Carrot
• Yellow/Burdock Root
• White/Daikon Radish
• Black/Shittake Mushrooms

Notes:This is a remedy for all age groups. When the soup is ingested, it produces thirty different elements for fighting disease. Within three days, it can stop the growth of cancer cells. Even for some last-stage cancer patients, it can lead to 100% remission. Patients who have subsisted on feeding tubes for nourishment, when given the soup, after two days regained their strength. Over 10,000 last-stage cancer patients have used this remedy. 99% are alive and were able to return to work. Bottom of Form 1

Vegetable Soup Recipe - (2 day's quantity)

Ingredients:

• 16 ounces white daikon
• 8-10 ounces white daikon greens
• 8-10 ounces carrot
• 8 ounces burdock root (called Gobo in Japanese, Uang in Korean, Ngao pong or Niu pang in Chinese)
• 3-5 fresh shitake mushroom (sundried) - if not sundried, expose dried mushrooms to sun again.

Directions:

1. Don't peel anything! Don't add any seasoning!

2. Fill a pot with three times the quantity of water as the vegetable. When it comes to a boil, reduce the flame and simmer for two hours. Strain and drink.

Brown Rice Tea Recipe

Another remedy that can be used in conjunction with the vegetable soup is brown rice tea. It is a good diuretic for ridding excess water from the body. For diabetics, it can bring the sugar level down by producing more natural insulin in the body. It cleanses the blood and blood vessel. A person with a heart condition drinking both soups in 20 days will be able to regulate their problem by drinking three cups per day. For a regular cancer patient, about two cups.

1. 1 cup brown rice
2. 16 cups water

Note: only cook in stainless steel or glass. Do not mix with any other ingredients. Don't be "creative."

Directions:

1. Roast the rice without oil until dark brown but don't burn. Boil 8 cups of water and pour roasted rice into water. Turn off flame, cover and let sit five minutes. Strain out rice and reserve liquid.
2. Boil 8 more cups of water. Put the remaining rice back in the water. Cover, lower flame and simmer five minutes. Strain rice out. Mix the two rice waters together.

Special Notes:

• The amount one needs depend on the condition. The more serious the condition, the more tea.
• Do not drink tea while taking a high protein substance.
• Don't drink the vegetable soup and brown rice tea together. Wait at least 15 minutes apart.
• If you use this remedy regularly you will never be sick.
Some possible reactions:
• itchy skin or eczema
• If you use medications and/or have eczema, use less because of stronger reaction
• People with head injury problems may develop headaches but don't worry.
• People with eye problems may get temporary blurred vision or itching around eyes. Eyesight will get better. If you wear prescription glasses, try to reduce the prescription and use glasses less frequently.
• Lowering of body temperature, but this is normal.
Notes: For high blood pressure, drink the two soups alternately but slowly. Blood pressure will come down after one month. Talk to a doctor about reducing medication, but don't stop medication right away. Use remedy for minimum of one month.
Progress of Healing
• After three days of use, cancer cells stop growing.
• After a minimum of one month normal cells begin to grow back.
• Pancreatic Cancer: minimum 1 month
• Stomach Cancer: 1 month
• Liver Cancer: 1 year
• Rheumatism: 1 year
• Cataracts: 4 months

Notes: If you are on medication, consult with a doctor to adjust your dosage. This remedy works for some people. It may not work for you. It is not intended to replace the traditional treatments.

Q1: Are ingredients of the vegetable soup recipe measured in fluid ounces or real weights?

A1 : Dr. Antonia Martinez Director of the Healing Spirit said that their recipe uses the real weights and not the fluid ounces as in other food recipes.

Q2 : Do people using the Vegetable Soup have side effects or reactions?

A2 : Depending on individual bodies, some people using the Vegetable Soup could have side effects/reactions. Reactions are classified in 2 categories:
Natural Reaction: Ingredients in the Vegetable soup have lots of medicinal effects and contain chemicals that are working on human cells to make them better and stronger, and in the same time purify and cleanse blood stream to push out LDL (bad cholesterol) and fat. Reactions could be itches on the skin, itches around eyes, blurring eyes but these reactions will go away in a few days. If reactions persist stop the HELP for a few weeks and start again.

Patient or user mistakes Mistakes could be ranging from:

• (1) using the wrong kind of ingredients especially the Chinese mushrooms instead of the Japanese Shiitakes.
• (2) the proportion of vegetables making the soup is not followed closely.
• (3) using wrong type of saucepan. Must use stainless steel saucepan to cook.
• (4) vegetable soup left outside in room temperature more than 6 hours can turn out to have bad smelling or color changes to green or white. Throw it away at once. Vegetable Soup should be stored in glass container and refrigerated.
• (5) drinking the Vegetable Soup and the Brown Rice solution together or in the same time. People are reporting serious reactions when taking those two solutions in the same time. Must drink them separately with half-hour or one hour apart.

Q3: How much vegetable soup can one consume a day?

A3: For:

• Diabetes take 600 cc of Brown rice (BR) solution in the morning and 400 cc of Vegetable Soup (VS) in the afternoon.
• Heart problem: 300 cc of BR and 600 cc of VS
• Gall stones: 600 cc of BR and 600 cc of VS.
• Other diseases: About 600 cc (2.5 cups) of VS a day divided in 3 rations before meals .

IMPORTANT NOTE

DO NOT DRINK Vegetable Soup and Brown Rice Solution in the same time. The interval needed between consumption of BR and VS must be at least 30 minutes or 1 hour apart to be safe.

Burdock

This herb gets its name from bur, for its tenacious burrs, and dock old English for plant. Many scientists are skeptical about Burdock and its uses. However, as a healing herb it has a potential for treating cancer. Early Chinese physicians, as well as Ayurvedic healers, used Burdock as a remedy for colds, flu, throat infections and pneumonia. During the 14th Century, its leaves were pounded in wine and used to treat leprosy. From 1930-1950, Burdock was used as an ingredient in alternative cancer treatments.

The FDA noted that too much of this herb can cause side effects and lists Burdock as an herb of "undefined safety". However, German researchers have discovered fresh Burdock root contains polyacetylenes, a chemical that kills disease-causing bacteria and fungi. It also reduces mucus and prevents formation of gall and kidney stones. As Burdock contains vitamin A and selenium, it can eliminate free radicals.
Its chromium content helps regulate blood sugar levels. Other qualities of this herb, set forth in the magazine Chemotherapy, identified a chemical (arctigenin) in Burdock which acts as an inhibitor of tumor growth.
!!! This herb should not be used by pregnant women.!!!

History

Burdock is also known by the names Bardane, Clotburr, Beggars Buttons, Gypsy Rhubarb, Gobo, and Burr. In traditional herbal texts, Burdock Root is described as a "blood purifier" or "alterative", and was believed to clear the bloodstream of toxins.

Medicinally, Burdock Root has been used both internally and externally for eczema and psoriasis, as well as to treat painful joints and as a diuretic.
In traditional Chinese medicine, Burdock Root, in combination with other herbs, is used to treat sore throats, tonsillitis, colds, and even measles.
It is eaten as a vegetable in Japan and elsewhere. Burdock is a mild laxative. It also aids in the elimination of uric acid. The herb contains polyacetylenes that have both anti-bacterial & anti-fungal properties. By improving the function of many organs of elimination (liver, kidneys, bowels), many health conditions can be improved.

Burdock Root contains high amounts of inulin and mucilage. This may explain its soothing effects on the gastrointestinal tract. Bitter constituents in the root may also explain the traditional use of Burdock to improve digestion. The polyacetylene constituents have also been shown to have anti-microbial activity. Burdock Root (and the fruit) also have the ability to mildly lower blood sugar (hypoglycemic effect).
Medicinal Action and Uses

Alterative, diuretic and diaphoretic. One of the best blood purifiers. In all skin diseases, it is a certain remedy and has effected a cure in many cases of eczema, either taken alone or combined with other remedies, such as Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla.

The root is principally employed, but the leaves and seeds are equally valuable. Both root and seeds may be taken as a decoction of 1 OZ. to 1 1/2 pint of water, boiled down to a pint, in doses of a wineglassful, three or four times a day.
The anti-scorbutic properties of the root make the decoction very useful for boils, scurvy and rheumatic affections, and by many it is considered superior to Sarsaparilla, on account of its mucilaginous, demulcent nature; it has in addition been recommended for external use as a wash for ulcers and scaly skin disorders.
An infusion of the leaves is useful to impart strength and tone to the stomach, for some forms of long-standing indigestion.

When applied externally as a poultice, the leaves are highly resolvent for tumours and gouty swellings, and relieve bruises and inflamed surfaces generally. The bruised leaves have been applied by the peasantry in many countries as cataplasms to the feet and as a remedy for hysterical disorders.

From the seeds, both a medicinal tincture and a fluid extract are prepared, of benefit in chronic skin diseases. Americans use the seeds only, considering them more efficacious and prompt in their action than the other parts of the plant. They are relaxant and demulcent, with a limited amount of tonic property. Their influence upon the skin is due largely to their being of such an oily nature: they affect both the sebaceous and sudoriferous glands, and probably owing to their oily nature restore that smoothness to the skin which is a sign of normal healthy action.
The infusion or decoction of the seeds is employed in dropsical complaints, more especially in cases where there is co-existing derangement of the nervous system, and is considered by many to be a specific for all affections of the kidneys, for which it may with advantage be taken several times a day, before meals.

Treats certain cancers, prevents diabetes

Burdock's name is a combination of bur, for its spiked seed covers - burrs - that grab onto anything that touches them, and dock, Old English for "plant." Many scientists dismiss burdock as useless, but like its seeds, its reputation as an herbal healing agent clings tenaciously because of its subtle tonic benefits and its intriguing potential as a treatment for cancer.

Throughout history, burdock has been recommended for an astonishing number of illnesses. Ancient Chinese physicians used it to treat colds, coughs, tonsillitis, measles, skin infections and snakebite. Traditional European and American herbalists and homeopaths prescribed it for colds, arthritis, gout, stomach problems, fever, canker sores, leprosy, boils, gonorrhea, ringworm and infertility. They also considered it an excellent diuretic, and prescribed it for urinary tract infections, kidney problems and painful urination.

True, burdock is not powerfully therapeutic. But Daniel B. Mowrey, PhD, director of the American Phytotherapy Research Laboratory in Salt Lake City, Utah, and author of The Scientific Validation of Herbal Medicine, insists that it deserves its enduring place in herbal healing because of its value as a tonic - a subtle strengthener with cumulatively helpful effects.

"Burdock's action is mild, but real," Dr. Mowrey explains. "It has antibacterial and antiviral powers, and it reduces blood sugar, which helps prevent diabetes. I recommend using a little every day. And when you're ill, use it in addition to standard therapies."

ALB Sharing

2009-08-09T22:44:00.005+08:00

When I knew KB going to hold his ALB Part I at Clove & Clive, I was really tempted to join the class but was shy to ask :p but at last I managed to do it and re-take the ALB Part I with a group of experienced meditators. I am really glad that I made the correct decision and join the class.

Sometime back in February, I attended my very first spiritual workshop ~ ALB Part I at The Violet Flame. I was like a piece of white paper. Totally have no ideas of what am I doing and what sort of workshop am I doing. At that material time, I was totally lost and my life was totally a mess. I only felt emptiness within and nothing else. I knew I am `something wrong' some where but I don't know what ? and I don't know how to solve all these emotional and mental related problems..... I only know how to pray, pray to BUDDHA, pray to KUANYIN, my heart was yelling for help.... I knew I need to take some steps to resolve these problems, and I follow my heart, chose the spiritual way and once again, thanks for KUANYIN's guidance, I made the correct decision again.

ALB workshop really made an impact in me. First day of the workshop, I broke into tears.... those upset, unhappy, deep sadness which has long been buried within was like a volcano...overflow and blow.............. and some `some thing' some where matters started to show up............the process was rather messy and suffering....but no complain, I manage to solve them one by one.

Although I have completed 3 parts of ALB, I knew I still have a lot more to learn. And am really appreciate KB giving me a chance to go back and join another group to re-take Part I again. Something I have missed out in my previous workshop, I manage to get a clearer picture and understanding of ALB.

I have totally forgotten few things KB has reminded us on our very class....

In ALB, there are few things we need to know, first is to be observance, inventive and enhance your experience all the time. MUST NOT HAVE EXPECTATIONS in what you are doing, just focus on your experience. I have been doing it for the past few months but never concentrate on these.... really need to `improve' myself on these...

Prayers

2009-07-19T02:28:00.006+08:00

Do you believe in prayers ?

I used to have doubts when doing my prayers. A lot of questioning, a lot of doubts, but at the same time I have non stop doing my prayers whenever I am in deep sadness. Maybe I do not like to share it with other of all my sadness, and I only like to show the world `Oh I am happy' , `I am happy go lucky', `Oh ya I am really a happy girl who have a family who love me so much', `Oh yes my family members like to keep me beneath their wings'....and so on... I am too shallow..... This is not ME, I don't feel the happiness within and that's why I have put myself in deep sadness and lead myself to deep depression a few years back.

During my depression, I have very serious mood swing and I have some uncontrollable hands trembling sympthoms, I knew I am in trouble but I still kept it to myself, I continued with my prayers without fail, I knew I can't share my sadness with other, not even my best friends and families, I only can share it with my spiritual guide, The Goddess Of Mercy, or commonly known as `Kuan Yin'

In year 2008, think my depression has lead me to a critical level until my body can't stand this `pain' anymore and started to show me `SOS' signals. I knew I need to do something about myself but I don't know how and I don't what shall I do. That moment of time, I knew my prayers has been heard, my spiritual guide has lead me to the first person who is a Tarot Card Reader, he is the one direct me the way to get out of my darkness world and heading to a brighter world. I used to be a timid person, was always doubt and had lack of self confidence in whatever I do. I don't know how, but I have the courage to get out of the family business and pursue a brand new career in the outside world, and I am glad I made a correct decision, because my spiritual guide has lead me to the second person who has made an impact to my life, she is Li Yen.

Li Yen and I happened to commence work on the same day. I am used to be a shy person and do not like to share or reveal my thoughts to other, especially to those newly made friends. Li Yen she is an exceptional case, I don't know why I can throw out my deepest sadness to her and I knew my secret is safe with her. Later then I know she is a healer and she channel Kuan Yin (My Spiritual Guide) She is a healer in doing NEI (Neuro Emotional Intergration). I have no idea of it is but I gave it a try. After the first session, I started to feel better and I found it help me to release some of my inner emotions which has kept within me for ages. This is the very initial stage of me to know about this New Age Holistic Healing.

Two weeks later, I resigned from this company, and Li Yen left after a month later and started her holistic center at Jalan Bangkung, Bangsar sometime in December. Since then I started to get more and more interested to know more about New Age Holistic Healing and started to attend some workshops.

I don't know it's co incident or it is meant to be, I am really felt blessed since I knew Li Yen. Every time when there is an issue coming up, there are always somebody come to me and giving me advices, and most of them are related to my Spiritual Guide, Kuan Yin. Since young, whenever I have any problems or anything upset, the first thing I did will be sitting in front of the altar and staring at Kuan Yin Picture and start my prayer. The feeling is like a daughter having a very close and intimate conversation with her mother. The feeling is so warm and so relax.

In every minute and every second of my life, I am feeling gratitude and really grateful and thankful, GOD & GODDESS HEAR MY PRAYERS :)

10 Deadly Sins of Negative Thinking

2009-07-12T08:49:00.003+08:00

The way to overcome negative thoughts and destructive emotions is to develop opposing, positive emotions that are stronger and more powerful. - Dalai Lama

Life could be so much better for many people, if they would just spot their negative thinking habits and replace them with positive ones.

Negative thinking, in all its many-splendored forms, has a way of creeping into conversations and our thinking without our noticing them. The key to success, in my humble opinion, is learning to spot these thoughts and squash them like little bugs. Then replace them with positive ones. You'll notice a huge difference in everything you do.

Let's take a look at 10 common ways that negative thinking emerges get good at spotting these patterns, and practice replacing them with positive thinking patterns. It has made all the difference in the world for me.

1. I will be happy once I have _____ (or once I earn X).

Problem: If you think you can't be happy until you reach a certain point, or until you reach a certain income, or have a certain type of house or car or computer setup, you'll never be happy. That elusive goal is always just out of reach. Once we reach those goals, we are not satisfied we want more.

Solution: Learn to be happy with what you have, where you are, and who you are, right at this moment. Happiness doesn't have to be some state that we want to get to eventually it can be found right now. Learn to count your blessings, and see the positive in your situation. This might sound simplistic, but it works.

2. I wish I were as ____ as (a celebrity, friend, co-worker).

Problem: We'll never be as pretty, as talented, as rich, as sculpted, as cool, as everyone else. There will always be someone better, if you look hard enough. Therefore, if we compare ourselves to others like this, we will always pale, and will always fail, and will always feel bad about ourselves. This is no way to be happy.

Solution: Stop comparing yourself to others, and look instead at yourself what are your strengths, your accomplishments, your successes, however small? What do you love about yourself? Learn to love who you are, right now, not who you want to become. There is good in each of us, love in each of us, and a wonderful human spirit in every one of us.

3. Seeing others becoming successful makes me jealous and resentful.

Problem: First, this assumes that only a small number of people can be successful. In truth, many, many people can be successful in different ways.

Solution: Learn to admire the success of others, and learn from it, and be happy for them, by empathizing with them and understanding what it must be like to be them. And then turn away from them, and look at yourself you can be successful too, in whatever you choose to do. And even more, you already are successful. Look not at those above you in the social ladder, but those below you there are always millions of people worse off than you, people who couldn't even read this article or afford a computer. In that light, you are a huge success.

4. I am a miserable failure I can't seem to do anything right.

Problem: Everyone is a failure, if you look at it in certain ways. Everyone has failed, many times, at different things. I have certainly failed so many times I cannot count them and I continue to fail, daily. However, looking at your failures as failures only makes you feel bad about yourself. By thinking in this way, we will have a negative self-image and never move on from here.

Solution: See your successes and ignore your failures. Look back on your life, in the last month, or year, or 5 years. And try to remember your successes.. If you have trouble with this, start documenting them keep a success journal, either in a notebook or online. Document your success each day, or each week. When you look back at what you've accomplished, over a year, you will be amazed. It's an incredibly positive feeling.

5. I'm going to beat so-and-so no matter what I'm better than him. And there's no way I'll help him succeed he might beat me.

Problem: Competitiveness assumes that there is a small amount of gold to be had, and I need to get it before he does. It makes us into greedy, back-stabbing, hurtful people. We try to claw our way over people to get to success, because of our competitive feelings. For example, if a blogger wants to have more subscribers than another blogger, he may never link to or mention that other blogger. However, who is to say that my subscribers can't also be yours? People can read and subscribe to more than one blog.

Solution: Learn to see success as something that can be shared, and learn that if we help each other out, we can each have a better chance to be successful. Two people working towards a common goal are better than two people trying to beat each other up to get to that goal. There is more than enough success to go around. Learn to think in terms of abundance rather than scarcity.

6. Dammit! Why do these bad things always happen to me?

Problem: Bad things happen to everybody. If we dwell on them, they will frustrate us and bring us down.

Solution: See bad things as a part of the ebb and flow of life. Suffering is a part of the human condition but it passes. All pain goes away, eventually. Meanwhile, don't let it hold you back. Don't dwell on bad things, but look forward towards something good in your future. And learn to take the bad things in stride, and learn from them.. Bad things are actually opportunities to grow and learn and get stronger, in disguise.

7. You can't do anything right! Why can't you be like ____ ?

Problem: This can be said to your child or your subordinate or your sibling. The problem? Comparing two people, first of all, is always a fallacy. People are different, with different ways of doing things, different strengths and weaknesses, different human characteristics. If we were all the same, we'd be robots. Second, saying negative things like this to another person never helps the situation. It might make you feel better, and more powerful, but in truth, it hurts your relationship, it will actually make you feel negative, and it will certainly make the other person feel negative and more likely to continue negative behavior. Everyone loses.

Solution: Take the mistakes or bad behavior of others as an opportunity to teach. Show them how to do something. Second, praise them for their positive behavior, and encourage their success. Last, and most important, love them for who they are, and celebrate their differences.

8. Your work sucks. It's super lame. You are a moron and I hope you never reproduce.

Problem: I've actually gotten this comment before. It feels wonderful. However, let's look at it not from the perspective of the person receiving this kind of comment but from the perspective of the person giving it. How does saying something negative like this help you? I guess it might feel good to vent if you feel like your time has been wasted. But really, how much of your time has been wasted? A few minutes? And whose fault is that? The bloggers or yours? In truth, making negative comments just keeps you in a negative mindset. It's also not a good way to make friends.

Solution: Learn to offer constructive solutions, first of all. Instead of telling someone their blog sucks, or that a post is lame, offer some specific suggestions for improvement. Help them get better. If you are going to take the time to make a comment, make it worth your time. Second, learn to interact with people in a more positive way it makes others feel good and it makes you feel better about yourself. And you can make some great friends this way. That's a good thing.

9. Insulting People Back

Problem: If someone insults you or angers you in some way, insulting them back and continuing your anger only transfers their problem to you. This person was probably having a bad day (or a bad year) and took it out on you for some reason. If you reciprocate, you are now having a bad day too. His problem has become yours. Not only that, but the cycle of insults can get worse and worse until it results in violence or other negative consequences for both of you.

Solution: Let the insults or negative comments of others slide off you like Teflon. Don't let their problem become yours. In fact, try to understand their problem more why would someone say something like that? What problems are they going through? Having a little empathy for someone not only makes you understand that their comment is not about you, but it can make you feel and act in a positive manner towards them and make you feel better about yourself in the process.

10. I don't think I can do this I don't have enough discipline. Maybe some other time.

Problem: If you don't think you can do something, you probably won't. Especially for the big stuff.. Discipline has nothing to do with it motivation and focus has everything to do with it. And if you put stuff off for “some other time”, you'll never get it done. Negative thinking like this inhibits us from accomplishing anything.

Solution: Turn your thinking around: you can do this! You don't need discipline. Find ways to make yourself a success at your goal. If you fail, learn from your mistakes, and try again. Instead of putting a goal off for later, start now. And focus on one goal at a time, putting all of your energy into it, and getting as much help from others as you can. You can really move mountains if you start with positive thinking.

Dream Of A Dream

I have been longing for the past 17 years, a stress free vacation, with no stress, hassles and long vacation. I have been to so many places before but I do not have a trip that I can totally let go of `stress'. A trip that I do not have to worry about work, I do not have to worry about family, I do not really need to worry about being overslept and missed all my itineries.

After taking in much considerations about this trip, I have sent in my resignation to the company that I newly joined for 6 months in February'09 and start to plan for my long awaited self discoveries journey which commenced on 1st April 2009, knew it's April Fool Day, but this is no joke :) Australia, here I come :)
