Acceptance

Pondered by = Christine =

A chapter from the book I'm currently reading, "Happiness in Hard Times" by Andrew Matthews is profoundly true and yet, most of us fail to note it. It's easy to talk the talk but it's really time to walk the walk!


" Perhaps you are broke right now. Perhaps you have lost your job or lost a loved one. May be you are sick. You say, "I just don't know what to do."

Here is the first thing to do - and the only thing to do. You accept where you are. To turn things around you first make peace with your situation.

Forget about blame, forget about guilt, forget the "what ifs", Progress depends on acceptance. Acceptance doesn't mean, "I want to stay here." Acceptance means: "This is where I am - and now I move on to what I want."

It saddens me to know that a dear fren is still in the shadows of what-ifs. I hope I'm wrong abt this but it seems that it was from 3 mths ago and I hope you hv walked out into the light, as there is so much that life can offer and for what you hv now, you should be grateful. =)

Another use of Potatoes?

Pondered by = Christine =

Are you sick of windows, mirrors and goggles fogged up? I do!

Found this article from Google Reader, which is very well recommended! (I luv Google Reader, thanks to whoever invented that! Thanks to Bukudu who strongly recommended it too, hehe!)

All you hv to do is rub raw potato over the goggles. But of coz, before you rush out into the winter field, you will need to pop the half cut potato into a plastic bag but trust me, the clear vision will definitely be worthwhile.

1. Cut a raw potato in half. Be sure to use a clean potato, so wash it first if it is coated in soil. This is a good opportunity to use up an old potato that has started to sprout and is past its best.

2. Rub the cut part of one half potato on the window. This will clean it and leave a layer that will prevent condensation from forming on the window.

3. Use the other half if needed. You can also cut off dirtied slices and keep using the existing half if wished.

4. Leave to dry without touching.

Warnings:
* If you rub too much, it might impair visibility, just as fog would.
* Potatoes may be sticky and attract bugs.

TX Casino Games

Pondered by = Christine =

Was surfing the net today and saw this site promoting about the best casino games and poker rooms. The site also listed the number of games that each online casino has and a star rating was also given. You can even subscribe via email! There are so many casinos that sprung up online nowadays, anyone would be confused.

Pondered by = Christine =

The BEST action-and-reaction I hv ever seen! The "machine" was designed and built by the band, along with members of Syyn Labs for a period of several months.

BuyYourCar

Pondered by = Christine =

I had come across many websites selling used cars but BuyYourCar is really a recommendation. It really helps when a website is user friendly especially search hunts can be really frustrating. This website is built to make your life easier to search through and to navigate among the countless choices available.

My favorite section are - just to name a few the used ford cars, used volkswagen cars, used bmw car. Check it out!
