Whatever It Takes

According to some, water is life.  True! I absolutely agree to this statement.  In so many ways water is so useful and indispensable.   I’d rather live without electricity than without water.   Infact during baptism water is used to symbolize cleansing of our  soul.   We need water to hydrate our body and be in good health.

If your body is not sufficiently hydrated, the cells will draw water from your bloodstream, which will make your heart work harder.  At the same time, the kidneys cannot purify the blood effectively.   When this happens,  some of the kidney’s workload is passed on to the liver and other organs, which may cause them to be severely stressed.   Additionally, you may develop a number of minor health conditions such as constipation, dry and itchy skin, acne, nosebleeds, urinary tract infection, cough, sneezing, sinus pressure and headache.

So,  how much water is enough for you?   The minimum amount of water you need depends on your body weight.   A more accurate calculation,  is to drink an ounce for every 2 pounds of body weight.

I have made an effort to browse the net and search for a wonderful reading that I can send to my friend who is diagnosed of brain cyst.   I wanted to help her overcome her negative thoughts concerning her ailment.  I made the effort to contact the person whom I knew who also suffered the same ailment.  This person undergone brain operation and he is fully healed now.   I gave her the name of the surgeon who handled the operation.   In this way,  she can draw idea on who to get second opinion.    I’m also sharing her the story of a friend who survived this kind of ailment to eradicate hopelessness.     During our conversation, I felt that she has fear on what might happen to her after an operation.    I interrupted her negative thoughts but the fact that she has already heard of some remote stories in which the operation turned out to be a failure,  she could not help but think of it.    I know that she is a strong woman but considering that this ailment is dreadful, we cannot discount the feeling of uncertainty.   I was able to find this tips on how to help us develop positive thinking.   I firmly believe that positive thinking can help her ameliorate /cope with her predicament.    I am sharing this to everyone with the hope that somebody who is in the same situation can also benefit this.

Here are a few actions and tips to help you develop the power of positive thinking:

Always use only positive words while thinking and while talking. Use words such as, ‘I can’, ‘I am able’, ‘it is possible’, ‘it can be done’, etc.

Allow into your awareness only feelings of happiness, strength and success.

Try to disregard and ignore negative thoughts. Refuse to think such thoughts, and substitute them with constructive happy thoughts.

In your conversation use words that evoke feelings and mental images of strength, happiness and success.

Before starting with any plan or action, visualize clearly in your mind its successful outcome. If you visualize with concentration and faith, you will be amazed at the results.

Read at least one page of inspiring book every day.

Watch movies that make you feel happy.

Minimize the time you listen to the news and read the papers.

Associate yourself with people who think positively.

Always sit and walk with your back straight. This will strengthen your confidence and inner strength.

Walk, swim or engage in some other physical activity. This helps to develop a more positive attitude.

This applies to all our endeavor in life.   Let’s practice positive thinking everyday and expect a positive outcome.   Think positive and only expect favorable results and situations, even if your current circumstances are not as you wish them to be.    In time our mental attitude will affect our life and circumstances and change them accordingly.

I came across today a story from a local newspaper which reported a Taiwanese groom who died on his wedding day after having too much wine and beer to drink.   The man was only 35 years old, an insurance company worker.  He passed out at home after drinking too much on his wedding day.

It was not known if he had health complications.  Everyone was having a great time according to the party organizer.   The man was hospitalized after his face turned black.   He died despite treatment.

This is really a very sad and traumatic experience for the wife.   A lot of questions coming from my head….. One, was the husband celebrating happily that’s why he drank too much wine and beer?   Two, was the man trying to drink too much wine and beer to intentionally end his life.    Well,  the news didn’t say anything about the reason but for the sake of discussion we will raise this questions.   What do you think is the reason why he drank too much wine and beer on his wedding day?   If  I’m the groom, I should not be drinking too much wine on my wedding day because I will be anticipating for a more exciting part after the reception…….. the First Night!   How could I perform well if I’m drunk???  That’s my point of view…..what about yours? hahahaha

Many women would want to get trimmed but most lacks the will. I for one keeps on browsing in this internet trying to find ways to trim down fats in the easiest way. There are those sites that are endorsing slimming pills which offers quick results but I doubt if it is safe. Checking the label and its components won’t help not unless you are a pharmacologist who can distinguish the chemicals or the herbs.

We women should stay trim and fit specially if we have a husband to keep. If we are fat, we tend to be lazy, unattractive, unhealthy, unresponsive to sex and insecure. These are the bad effect of being fat. Women please take note that it is our responsibility to maintain the looks when we first met our husband. Though as we become older it is impossible for us to maintain that looks but atleast we should not changed that bad. I can hear some women says that its not a problem to them if they are fat because there husbands loves them to be fat. That’s nice to hear if your husband is sincere to his words but its not just for your husband but for yourself. We know for a fact that too much fat in our body can cause high blood pressure and eventually affect your hearts’ normal functioning. If your husband wants you to be fat maybe he wants you to die early (just kidding aside). Yes its a joke but did you realize what is it all about? It’s your health babe!!! Please love yourself for heavens’ sake.

I wanted to share something which I have proven effective in trimming down extra fats in our body. This is from my own personal experience. I am also that kind of woman who wanted to get trimmed but lacks the will. However, by just making a slight changes in my diet I was able to lose roughly 10 lbs in 2 months. Well, not bad at all because all I did was just to refrain from eating rice in my meals. I didn’t do any exercise. I only eat fish, meat, vegetables and fruits. In the morning I drink milk and eat 2 slices of white bread with either eggs and some spreads. For me this is already enough to give me heat and energy to start my day. During lunch I only eat viand that is served and also during supper. Now I’m getting used to this diet. Try this I’m sure you too can get the same result as mine. By the way you have to drink also plenty of water. I’m imagining myself 5 months from now a more leaner body I can achieve. So what are you waiting for? Try this….I don’t have a husband to keep but I’m hoping to find one.
