Suddenly...I am happy

Can't find the words why this morning I am so

happy.

I woke up 4am with a terrible headache. Cracking headache in fact.  Did what I usually do with this migraine attacks (the "wonder drop") and went back to bed.  An hour after I am in the shower and headed out to my parents house.

Sun is up when I pased by the coastals.  Traffic is light but starting to build, clouds is high.  I felt suddenly a tiny flip in the heart...and I am happy.  Thoughts of people I met again days ago, I thought of people I witnessed shedding tears of joy when a few months back they got to walk alone again after several years.  I next rode the jeepney on to work and i gazed at people.  How are they? Me, I am happy.

I wish I can make everyone else happy too.  Its such a nice feeling when you love life and living.  See every little thing to be part of your happiness. Appreciate all around you to be given by Him who makes all things possible.  I feel today I am being told to love life to the fullest.  Today is another day given to fulfill your purpose.  

Thank God I am breathing and I am happy.  And thank God I have so much love in the heart and so many people sharing it back 🤗

WALK WITH A HEART

Mark the day where people will WALK for a very good cause.  

People from all over the world have been extending help since the big disaster hit the Philippines in 2013.  It affected millions of lives and it is not over.  The severe loss and damage the calamity brought continues to pain the victims of this tragic event and the brethren of the Iglesia Ni Cristo feels the intense need to share further with the World Wide Walk to happen on Saturday, 2nd of February 2014.

Be part of this simple but effective way of giving not just monetary assistance but a heartfelt empathy to the young and the old that lost love ones, homes and almost – their ALL.

What difference does it make if you will walk to have a good functioning heart and walk with us in the WWW and have also a big blessed heart?

How hard will it be to use up this one day to be within groups of people sharing smiles knowing you have a common cause?

Why not do what you usually do of exercising those bones and muscles, getting the vitamin D that you need, strengthen your heart and lungs WITH ME?  WITH US?

Know that this is yet another Memory to Keep.  Join the Worldwide Walk for the Yolanda Victims and be part of history.

A PROMISE AIN'T ENOUGH...

Whose heart will not go tender hearing the sweetest of words?

Alongside dimmed lights, soft music, small smiles for the romantic;

Or the sudden change from the loud fun filled day, friendly punches, locked gazes for the adventurers;

From one end of the earth to another, people of different race and raise will definitely stop once the unexpected expectation so suddenly came.

There's the promise a kiss will give...but nothing can surpass the promise of eternal love and commitment.

CONFUSION

There were times that we suddenly feel...STUCKED!

We wouldn't want to step back nor do we know if we want to go forward.  We're not even sure if we want to move.

Why?  

It's like having no choice though you do.  

It's like needing to choose but you can't.  You won't.

It's like hoping it will be decided for you.

Look back to how you came about this reality.  Is this something unexpected?  Is this something you have been dreading?  Is this something you tried to put at the back of your mind but keeps popping up each time you are in that verge of happiness and suddenly falls into that oblivion of being speechless...and stucked.  You mind goes reeling but you lips are frozen.

How do we ever put ourselves in such situations...and time and again,  we just cross that path of stillness, push it off our way and continue on, accepting that today is not the day...maybe tomorrow.  

IMPERFECT ME STILL IS IMPERFECT

Ever heard of the word MEIZITANG? Read along and learn its relevance in love and relationship...

Everyone of us wants to be perfect especially in the eyes of our one true love. We do almost everything possible to look good for them, to fit their character, to love the same hobby, to be who they want us to be. Though in actuality there are times that we go overboard. We see ourselves lacking when they already are far more than contented and pleased with what we are.

STILL.

It's but natural that we feel that we are imperfect. People are people. Nobody can have everything. And so we see in the other what lacks in us and others see in us what lacks in them. Most often though, we see the physical attributes. The body is mostly seen when you think of romantic involvement. And so comes diet, exercise and all those other slimming options available in the market. Meizitang Diet is among the popular ones that most people lean to when they are in need of a lift in their weighing scale. This slimming capsule is said to help in reducing fat tissue. It accelerate fat metabolism and reduce absorption of fatty acids in the intestine. From the very name Meizitang you would know that it is Chinese in origin. Yes, t is composed of natural herbs but be wary that they also has side effects that can be harmful especially to pregnant women, infants, children under 18 years, those over 65 years old, hypertensives, suffering from heart ailments/cardiovascular disease, kidney and liver failure. As always, we seek professional guidance and consult before intake of any drug/medication.

In the eyes of a love one, you will always be perfect no matter the imperfections. But you can be a little vain or inclined to health to want to lose excess weight. And if you need to...why not use Meizitang if your doctor agrees?

MARRY YOUR FRIEND

"If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love."

- Michel Eyquem de Montaigne

ARE YOU A SPORTY COUPLE?

More often than not, it's the men that gears up and enjoy their sport. It is a fact that their time is divided into work, mingling with friends, their sport and you. Unfortunately, the part of "you" at times are the left off of their time for the other endeavors. It's almost next to begging to drag them away and have time for you.

Giving up, women now learned to use this time their men alott on sports to be theirs as well by learning the sport he loves or to at least get him to join you in finding one that interests both of you. Not only is this a great way to strengthen the relationship but also a great advantage to health and a great time to cool down and relax. It could be an indoor activity or an outdoor if preferred, the important thing is that there is a change in routine, a set of new topics to divulge on, an added excitement to your relationship that breaks boredom or commonality on your day to day event. Plus the proven fact that adventure, exercise and sports releases the addictive love hormone, Endorphins. It makes everything more positive around each other with this feel good hormone.

Usually couples choose outdoor activities for the change in scenery. From biking, hiking,running, snowboarding, skiing and the likes. And you see them with Camelbak Pack. It should not just "pack up and go". Your comfort and your safety is important. For sporty people, common focus is on hydration. This is after all a key to good performance, stability and continuance. With Camelbak they can rehydrate without the trouble of stopping, fishing out a drink and quench thirst. Athletes, outdoorsmen, and soldiers around the world recognized and appreciated the hands-free system and uses it to their advantage. Why have anything less when you can have more with this originator and world leader in hands-free hydration system?

How nice would it be to do the thing you and your better half enjoy comfortably and in style! Not only will you now have more time together but also continue learning more about each other.

HE LEFT ME

How can you be whole again when your better half left you?

Years you have been together sharing everything. He is your best friend. He knows every tiny bit about you no other knows. He knows what goes on in your mind, he knows what to do to cheer you up, he knows when you are disappointed or if you will be pleased...sometimes he even know you better than you know yourself. And he left...

It's almost being dependent on him. You expect him to hug you when you get cold that you tend to forget to bring a wrap when you go out. You are certain that you will get a foot massage for the long standing up you had to do early today. And he left...

At some point, you just developed the fact that he is and will always be there for you. There will be someone to change the light when it get busted. He will fetch you wherever you are when you are stranded if just to accompany you. Be the escort you are proud of whichever event needs escorting. And he left...]

You have finally given your heart and your soul...content that you have him. And he left...

What's heart wrenching is that he left you though he do not want to. He passed away. He fought to stay and continue being your escort, your companion, your wrap, your everything. He left and you are left behind. Now you look back and say to yourself, if only you are there for him as he is for you. If you only have used every opportunity given you to be perfect for him.

SO FOR YOU WHO STILL HAVE HIM...START USING THE GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY GIVEN YOU TO BE LOVED AND LOVE BACK AS IF THERE WILL BE NO TOMORROW.

KEEPING IN CLOSE TOUCH WITH YOU

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Net10 for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Inseparable!  Couples hopelessly in love with one another just could not get enough of each other.  When together, they seem to be glued together.  When not with each other, they still have this need to at least hear the voice of one another, and the things to say and to share are just endless.  REGARDLESS OF THE PHONE BILLS!!!

But why have tremendously large bills to pay when you don’t have to?  Just have NET10 and see how outrageous those other providers are for charging you such high amounts starting from choosing plans with their many hidden charges and the airtime fees, not to mention all the trouble you have to do and bear just for you to shift from one plan to another. 

NET10 you can have a plan and a phone of your choice with no contracts, bills or credit check.  Imagine having unlimited calls and text to your honey-lovey for a month for a mere $50.  Period.  No hidden charges to suddenly pop-out of your bill.  And with that is unlimited internet access and 411.  Seems unbelievable but read on and increase the raised eyebrows I also sported when I first heard of NET10 qualities that I now have proven true.  Net10 guarantees nationwide coverage with no static, drop calls or any unclear signal experience.  And you have a wide variety of mobile unit choices from known phone manufacturers like LG, Motorola, Kyocera, Nokia and Samsung at low prices.  I got mine for under $60 as I have always craved for touch screens with all the basics plus great app capabilities, camera and video recorder, web access and the likes.  And I bought another for under $40 to give to my sister for her birthday that which have the usual necessities like camera, video recorder, blue tooth capability, mobile web and more.  If you are like mom and dad to want just the simple ones that they use just for calling and texting you can grab one for as low as $15.

With NET10 you can adjust to you month’s airtime needs.  And you can switch with no penalties or fees.  They also understand different lifestyles therefore made available options to go with it like the Easy Minute Plus plan where you can automatically have them charge from your bank account, or the Pay-as-you-go plans where you grab airtimes from local stores almost anywhere that which the minutes carry over with active service.  This means big or small, no matter what your status is, whoever you are, you are thought of.  And you definitely will benefit from the QUALITY SERVICE they offer. 

A couple definitely will benefit with the by the minute need to stay in touch with one another.   Even long distance affairs can withstand the challenge of being far from each other with the Long Distance Service that is available to over 75 countries.  With just 15 cents per minute on calls originated in the US they bridge the communication gap.  There even is an International Neighbors program available to Canada and Mexico wherein they give you a special phone number that your family and friends can use to reach you at your NET10 number. Even a college student a coast apart from her parent have no way of saying she can’t be reached.  It is affordable enough compared to other providers just as Jemena in her testimonial have verified. See her video here

One of the Real NET10 customer who have heard of the 10 Good Reasons why one should not let this NET10 offer go by have convinced me to try.  Let that “angel” be me for you.  See this Cute NET10 commercial that I pass on to friends and love ones if you can. 

From all these to the customer service, I have none yet to share that have not met my satisfaction.  Even their help though twitter and facebook have not gone unnoticed.  See for yourself and be the judge to what I believe is such a wonderful opportunity to have a better relationship with your better half as COMMUNICATION IS MIGHTY IMPORTANT TO MAKE EVERYTHING WORK OUT FINE.

HEAT AND BURN

We have to admit that we usually correlate heat and burning with metabolism. And related to it is physical activity. Between couples that meant “fun way of burning those excess calories”. But research says...It’s sizzling hot in the room and yet you don’t burn as much calories. One interesting article from Dole Nutrition Institute focuses on “boosting metabolism by braving cool temperatures”.

Energy expenditures were monitored for 15 men (average age 26) and 10 women (average age 32) as they alternated 12-hour periods in rooms heated to either 80 degrees or 60 degrees. The surprising finding: Exposure to 60-degree temperatures resulted in a 6% increase in calories burned without significant changes in physical activity. Moreover, exposure to lower temperature also resulted in a 13% increase in fatty acid levels in the blood, indicating that fat stores were being mobilized.

At work is thermogenesis: the conversion of calories to body heat. A similar dynamic was demonstrated in one German study where drinking 17 ounces of water increased metabolism by 30%, as increased energy was needed to heat the water to the body’s temperature. So, how can you use temperature to turbocharge your weight-loss efforts? Indoors, let your body acclimate to a cooler environment. Outdoors, exercise during cool weather without bundling up (e.g., shorts instead of sweats). By exposing your arms and/or legs you will not only burn more calories – you may augment your vitamin D levels by letting your skin soak in sunlight (which triggers vitamin D production).

One note of caution: If you’re prone to high blood pressure, exposure to cold temperatures could increase your vulnerability to heart attacks so exercise moderation in taking advantage of cool calorie-burning effects.

Dole DNI concern for the increasing prevalence of obesity was the reason for compilation of articles such as the one above. Dole Nutrition Institute Jennifer Grossman head starts with her innumerous editorials and television guesting’s that which focuses on Dole’s Summer Campaign on Nutrition and Health. “Feed the world with knowledge” is the main concern and so Jennifer Grossman Dole Nutrition Institute tries to reach far and wide to encourage people on the importance of fruits and vegetables in the diet, in addition to many other advices to combat obesity world crisis. Any that could be advantageous like the aforementioned “boosting metabolism by braving cool temperatures”. The passion of Jennifer Grossman to share this to others is something we should have as well. And in our own little way imitate the Jennifer Grossman Dole that which spreads the word through her publications and spread in our own way in our blogs, social networks or even by word of mouth.

SMILE AND MAKE OTHERS SMILE

None other than Nat King Cole advicing people to SMILE...

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking

Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

It lightens up the mood, it brightens up the day. Not just for you but for others that passes you by. SMILE is contagious. It's so easy to give that you almost need not make an effort to do so. And it comes back twice as nice because in your heart you knew that you shared something. You knew that you are not a snob and the other person knows it. And you knew that somehow you have a friend in that person for returning it.

It is very seldom that a smile is not given back. What are you to lose to smile? In fact there is everything to gain. You relax your facial muscles, you practice humanity, you encourage friendship, you pass common good, you make your day happier, you contribute to a peaceful society, you make others feel as good as you feel.

You are not seeing that someone face-to-face and yet you can still share a smile. Share SMILE QUOTES that can travel down the wire and make the heart fuller, send a message with a smiley to go with it in your mobile phones or websites for it to represent you, talk with a smile in your face though just on the phone for that someone at the other end of the line to hear the smile in your voice.

Pass along the smile...be happy and let everyone else around you be happy.

LOVE IN HIS EYES

"Do you love me because I am beautiful, or am I beautiful because you love me?"
- Cinderella

Physical appearance is a factor to loving someone but that is not all there is to it. We love because of the person that he is. We love someone "despite of". But more often than not, attraction that starts with the interest to look give way to knowing that someone more and in the end love blossoms.

And love makes us glow. Contentment and happiness makes you smile more, be positive and be nice to everything and everyone around you...therefor making you beautiful in the eyes of everyone else. Those in love are inspired to look good...and they do than when they are not.

FOR RICHER, FOR POORER

We heard these words, some even uttered them already. And the facts of life tells us that we can be on these situations. Those two status however need not be unmanageable. YOU CAN MANAGE THOSE FINANCES. The trials your relationship faces need not be the reason for hurting what you have tried so hard to build. Think back how blissful it was when you were madly in love with each other, when after those months the engagement happened because you cannot wait to proclaim to the world that you belong together, and that wedding...when you thank the heavens that this time "life would be so much better" because you will not be alone. There will be another half of you to face the world, winnings or loses, you have another clasping your hand to share the joy or the tears with.

The same goes with finances. You have someone with you, you are not alone. And there actually is another to continue to push up your hope and ease off your burden. The debt management UK can be there to hold the relationship together. There's no need to stress yourself thinking of a way out of those debts, how to manage it, what is the best way to do, etcetera. What you need is the help of experts in assessing all of them. Financial solutions will be provided, debt consolidation to simplify your finances and the likes, things your confused mind cannot digest anymore. Make it easy on you. Make it easy on your relationship. And anything that comes smooth, with less stress, will not make the treasured relationship suffer.

DANCE IN THE RAIN

Nothing is too weird to LOVE. Anything you do with the love of your life means a lot. You don't see playing tag in the beach too childish, you don't feel foolish wearing exactly the same clothes and stick with one another as if you're Siamese twins, you don't get bothered dancing in the rain...you simply don't think of what others may think as long as you're both happy and that what you are doing is strengthening the bond that you mean to keep bonded forever.

Yes, these foolish things others believe they were were not foolish at all. They are wise things to do to keep the relationship going and to continue to create spark and interest with one another. These activities you do are common to friends, and you are friends! It is a way of continuously knowing one another because as you start of a relationship there are still so many to learn about each other. You want to know the other as deeply as you can so you both can gauge the adjustment you both have to make to be perfect for the other, or to simply know if you did found the perfect match of living your forever with someone who can fit with who you are.

NO ONE IS TOO SHORT TO DATE!

Who says being short is a hindrance to finding someone to date and to love? Definitely not me, nor this short people club.

If you ask me, I honestly can tell you that more often than not, it is just us thinking the negative. We are so self conscious at times that we decide it on ourselves that "there is no use". Even with this height issue. How can you think that your height matters? Well, not to all. And there is just a great percentage of the population having the same height as you do, or maybe even shorter. And there also are some who prefers petite ladies no matter how tall the other is. The body is made to fit, and so does the thoughts and the heart.

Short men is never hopeless unless all you do is talk about being short. Be who you are and your confidence will bring out the best in you. Ladies are not always in for the height or the looks or the money. Ladies are in for the personality, the attitude, and how one carries himself. To them it is sexy being all those qualities you have even though you are below the height you hope to have. And to increase your chances of finding that peace with in you, why not meet short people and build confidence too? Either you date short people like you or if you're tall, date those cute short people many prefers. With short people dating you will find that short lovable one you are looking for. Someone that fits you perfectly! BUT REMEMBER ALWAYS...IT'S NOT JUST THE HEIGHT!!!

BRIDGE THE DISTANCE

It seems that I see more and more family separated by miles stretch of land and water nowadays. People, no matter what the status in life is, goes abroad and stays there to work. And though it keeps them away from their family, they still do so due to the demands of the economy.

"Long distance love affair" therefore is even more common. Married and unmarried couples alike experience this difficult situation. BUT unlike before, this kind of love affair have higher chance of surviving now than before. Thanks to technology!!!

I remember during my childhood, it's snail mail and infrequent overseas calls due to its high cost. In our time, there's the text messaging that travels far and wide in seconds. Calls are cheaper. And the best thing that happened is now you can see each other while you talk to one another. Skype is one way of doing that. Not as busy as the Yahoo Messenger, the delay in Skype is way too little as compared to the other network. Video phone calls also is possible, but for me, it is Skype.

BACK HER UP

Life indeed is stressful nowadays. We live in a fast pace environment, we twirl around a whirl wheel of activities. The moment we wake up until we turn off the lights at night, there almost is no stopping.

Women more today than women in the past centuries are up in their toes with all their responsibilities. If before it's just the family, the kids and the husband, and house chores...now its the family, the house chores,plus the demanding needs of the job to add to the family earnings. The man? Still, as before, just the earning a living, the job. LIFE IN THIS WORLD CHANGED...and so should we all.

In a husband and a wife, PARTNERSHIP is vital. But a woman was made to have a heart of a responsible mother and wife. It is within her to nurture and to care. But present economy demands that she also work. Highest pay is what we all look for today. And nursing job is one of the most popular. And if you show her this wonderful nursing scrubs it will give you that appreciation you deserve. Because these scrubs will somehow ease work a little with the comfort it provides. Free movement for the demands of her job will be less of a burden to her already stiff bones and muscles with all those stress. Inform her of http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Women/, that this is where to buy cheap scrubs and you will doubly please her with the help you are giving her in budgeting finances.

Back her up in everything she does and every pain, tiredness, burdens will all fly away. They will not matter because YOU ARE THERE FOR HER. And together you can have a happy family and strong relationship amidst all the world trials and hardships.

ONE HEART

"We were given: Two hands to hold. Two legs to walk. Two eyes to see. Two ears to listen. But why only one heart? Because the other was given to someone else. For us to find."

Again, ONE HEART TO GIVE TO SOMEONE! Some one, not some two or some three but some ONE. And there lay in the problem the moment people decides not to follow. Their life and the lives of others they embraced into the circle of chaos and confusion loses peace.

Just because they broke balance. Just because they broke equilibrium. Just because they got greedy with the addictive effects of loving and being loved.

REMEMBER: Anything in excess is not good!

NEXT TO ENGAGEMENT

It is all overwhelming, the friendship, then the relationship, then the engagement. You are blissfully happy and contented. But it does not end to that. It's not all courtship, sweetness and dating. Because after that it will be more than that. Much, much more than that. Because next to engagement will be marriage, commitment and responsibility. Next it will not just "you and me" but "you, me and them". The family. The children.

There will be a need to prepare yourself to let go of prioritizing yourself and your better half. You need to be prepared to forget yourself a little and focus on those tiny people that will solely depend on you. They will depend on you to take care of them. Provide them things they need and want. Those signature bags you buy for your collection and use will be changed to toddler backpack. And of course, you still wouldn't want less than the best. Not just anything, but these pretty ones that will be the envy of others. School will come and nap mats will be needed. Again, you kids have to be the best. Why have the least if you can have the best among the rest?

Still, we also have to consider that life is not that easy to live. You got to have better source than "just enough" because when you have a family to care for, you have to think one step ahead. Business like Embroidery Dallas to add to your monthly salary is ideal.

Again, It's not all courtship, sweetness and dating. Because after that will be marriage, commitment and responsibility.

WEDDING PICTURES

WEDDING PICTURES are worth more than you can bargain for. After all it is a memory to keep. The once in a lifetime event that will keep poking you all through out your life together. How nice will it be to go back time and again to one of the happiest days of your life.

THIS IS YOUR DAY!!! Do not just make do with anyone. Do not put this memento in the hands of just any photographer. Instead put it in the hands of DAN RONALD DIGITALS. A good friend of mine I highly recommend. =)
