Granting We Have A Chance To Be Someone

For one day, who would be him or her that we choose to?

Better yet, who would you be should choice is yours and why?

Mine is Mother Teresa.

Thanks for joining me and I love you all.

After such a not too good of an experience, I am glad to be back.

Thank you all my friends.

Love Is Universal

Our vulnerability to fall victimized of money through love is just as high as any race. However, a location and economic level of a country, does to a point determine the strength or weakness of such vulnerability.

Upon the threshold of first and second world, I personally observe that in seeking whom that could be our partner, money is not much of a deciding factor as to be used for falling in love.

I might be wrong but ethics and moral are far fetched from being considered for survival. We are humans who have always battled our ways for a better life. It's always been so and will remain so. Having said that, we do things that suit our needs and somehow our strategy and means are played out for such an objective.

The third world, being on the verge of economic bankruptcy utilize every effort to elevate every ways and means to live a decent life. Unfortunately women in such a poverty stricken world can easily use love as means of getting out in a rotten injustice of humanity.

When we single out Asian women in such a demeanor, we're sold to the idea that the world is a window of opportunity. Of which can be very true. So what do we do? We tend to be judgmental against such a predictable inconvenience. Yet allow ourselves to the basic lure of such a life then cry out our frustration knowingly so that we participated in such act. In the name and promises of love.

Why do we seek these women in the first place? And what is our chances of being used? Yet wasn't it our very own weakness that made us fall to begin with?

Let it be known that there are genuine women even amongst these God forsaken countries to be had.

Just be careful. Love is just as real as anywhere but yes, perhaps more love as a channel for economic greed can be sought if you allow yourself to be victimized.

On the other hand, per my personal experience as I'm aware of so many unions among my family and friends, love is far stronger and solid by these union between third world women and first and second world men.

I believe the point of my blog is to reinforce the idea that all elements involved in falling in love is the same regardless of culture, or race. Our success and or failure is just the same. Then again maybe I'm wrong. Thanks for reading anyways.

Any comment or contribution is appreciated.

DARK EMOTIONS RISING UP IN OUR CORNER

Hello gangs, friends, fellow bloggers, readers, contributors, commentators, ladies and gentlemen.

I have been away for a while and it seems like there is dark mood prevailing in our midst. I can't help but notice the wave of destruction bestowed on us by dark emotions from people who we think are our friends, or lovers and how we grieve over the fact that we become victimized by them.

Question: When we feel the first hit of doubt, how long does it take for us to accept that we're into something destructive? And do something about it?

What do we do then? Is there a modus operandi applicable for us to apply? Is it to our advantage to bear the burden of questioning and clarity our doubts? Or are we afraid to be wrong and allow us further to be taken for a ride?

Any suggestions?

Thanks for all your reads and contributions.

What is worth fighting for?

A situation where your life has reached a point and can truly say: I have been there, done all that, now I pick my own battles and I stick my nose only to what is worth my seconds left in life.

Recognizing the limitations of time you have in your hand, simply because you have so many things you want to do and accomplish before you go, now what are to you worth fighting for?

Have any ideas?

Me? I want to eradicate ignorance and poverty. I want to give light to those who's left in the dark. I know it is easier said than done but look at Bill Gates, when I first read about him 30 years ago, he was just as humble as anyone, now 48 billion asset later and half of that is directly going to humanitarian services..I wonder, how much truly is being used?

I am just bored. I have been reading a lot lately and I was going to write something about the latest in social afflictions like bisexuality, which is very new to human conditioning but maybe later.

Thanks all for your reads and contributions.

In a relationship, does marriage make any better?

My friend got married last month, June, the season of well planned tying of the knots. There is something special in this one though, it is her fourth marriage. As I was contemplating on her reasons, I can't help but ask myself, why would anyone wants to tie themselves in the same institution when all of those that took place ended up in bitter divorce?

I myself was offered a proposal to get engaged and eventually to get married, but after two divorces, I don't think I would ever want to be married again. Specially at my age, I'd rather just get along with the flow than becoming a property of anyone's.

Question is: Why do we get married? (Raising children is no longer an issue) Apart from economic benefits, does love and or a relationship function better just because we do get married?

Thanks all for your responses.

What are the many ways that can kill a relationshi

Having lived happily alone for over five years, it is not easy to jump into a relationship and expect that the adjustment is short to a pathway to a hellish road sometimes.

First of all, changing this complex life is not a walk in the park. Ever. If anything any changes that we initiate requires a great deal of introspection, weighing the pros and cons, or even whether, do we really need or want it?

But falling in love and be swept by its indomitable current is another thing. We become slave of our emotions. At least to me. We seem to be vulnerable to all the pitfalls of our grand and exceptionally infatuating feelings. We lost our minds. We live second by second with not a trace of logical implementations of our actions. Explosive and euphoric state of being is more like trigger to keep the excitement going. Beautiful and remarkably unique from the banality of a simple alone life.

I think there is nothing wrong with that, after all we all deserve to experience life to the limit, no holds barred attitude. We welcome this rare and once in a lifetime adventure. But then comes the unsettling feelings of becoming enmeshed to all that you both do as a couple. Eventually our individual eccentricities and inherent characteristics surface and most of the time you feel that there is a minor sense of differences on how you both do things. Even the sleeping habits, like leaving the television, blabbing about endless negative news is so irritating if not outright annoying. And more.

Slowly but surely you feel the encroachment to your sublime aloneness. And wonder if this union after all is worth taking it to the nines? Let alone for the rest of your life? I am sure I can answer this myself with nobody's help. But I am learning, and to me sharing it is such a very enlightening journey so thank you all for your reads and contributions.

The purpose of this blog is to share and or find out what are the most irritating and annoying experience you ever experience while in the process of enjoying and or adapting to a whole new life?

Thank you all for your reads and comments and sharing this silly life..

DISCOVERIES AND DISAPPOINTMENTS

We live our lives pretty much laid out and set up once you've done everything and thinking nothing can really surprise you anymore. What an understatement that is. Overconfidence derived from savored experiences can bury you alive sometimes for getting ahead of your mind.

Everyday you're in for a new beginning, new adventure, so mind boggling it twists your reason and unbelieving it's happening. And, at such an age you feel your children became your parents and dying to hear their take. Perhaps only to laugh at you and perhaps even thinking we deserve every ounce of our inane and brusque brush of life. You feel like an idiot, yet, choices available for you is either you act like all is fine but deep inside you want to explode. Or, admit you're so helpless and commit yourself to a mental health facility and wait for them to tell you, your brain had been reduced to a grain of sand. Or, perhaps on vacation and your foolish heart is jubilant to the max. Like a kid all alone and do anything with freedom up to the nines.

Reality is out of reach. Now, how would you get back on track?

Would you dare confront your situation? Knowing your mind will finally wake up and pull you out? In the meantime you're sure when that happens, it's goodbye happiness and joy?

Or would you stay for a while and enjoy the ride of your life? Saying: "if loving you is wrong, who wants to be right?

Thanks for all your reads and comments.

WHEN DO YOU PULL AWAY FROM A RELATIONSHIP?

You think and feel you found happiness. You both fit. You both are too excited. But as you begin to settle down and discover things that rather overwhelm you and can't seem to make it work, you begin to feel the shudder of doubts and skepticism. But deep inside of you and your heart, you know you have a spark of love that keeps on getting inflamed now and then. But truth keeps coming at you like it isn't what you expected..

Something is evidently wrong. You know that feeling when it is circling around you like dark clouds building up to a destructive force worst than any storms you've ever been into.

The problem is: Not that you don't want to leave, but that it is very difficult to come up with an excuse why you should leave because there are some traits and characteristics that just blow you away.

Measuring up to your expectations are detrimental to any foundation of a good possibility of building up a strong commitment to stay. Yet giving more consideration seems like you're knocking at the gates of hell.

Question is when do you know when it is time for you to cut loose? Scram? Let go and go solo again?

These are very self explanatory questions sometimes but when it is you that is hurting and can't seem to find balance and trust in yourself it is hard. When you fear that the past will come creeping back and haunt you, it is not good. Yet your heart is so stubborn and your mind is going blinder than it ever was, it is very difficult. At least to me.

The truth is, not that you're not happy and content being alone, but admittedly there are so many good parts of this relationship that you've never encountered ever, and just want to stay longer.
Definitely if these issues are resolved (I know they can be resolved as love is truly there) then it would be heaven. Meantime, you're caught in a bam of two extremes where the middle point is hazy.

When do you salvage a relationship and when do you shrug your shoulders and let go?

Thanks for all your read and comments.

HEALTH IS WEALTH

We have heard this before. As if a slogan that truly defines a major aspect of our life. I don't know about you, but for me in a way, it is.

Yesterday, the paper covered up a very striking if not an alarming situation with regards to our health status in my country. In fact, it said that if our health national expenditures and people's ways of eating and diet wouldn't change, it is enough to bankrupt the country in 20 years. It might look like a long way but when we are talking about the economic structure as well as political direction of our country, it is here now..

We really have to be concerned and serious about repercussions of not having a good health and must attempt to improve our ways of eating and life.

More alarming is the statistic that was provided for by Dr. Greg Fors, DC, Board Certified Neurologist, author of the best selling book, "WHY WE HURT", said that in the US alone has currently about 21 million Americans suffering from diabetes and third of these people don't even know it. (NIH) also reported on the same news that about 79 million from age 20 and older have pre diabetes and the same thing, unaware of it.

According to the Center for Disease Control claims that 2 out of every 3 adults and one out of every 3 children are obese and the culprit is that of the refined carbohydrates consumed excessively along with hidden sugars packed in processed food as well as the chemicals found in our environment.

This is not good. Specially for those whose health coverage is dwindling and worse have no coverage at all. The Obama health care, as generally conceived to change our system for the better actually got worst according to the report today from the Republican's analysis because in comparison to the system before it was implemented, 250 million Americans had a good and fair coverage while about 40 million had none. But in this current program not only did it mess up the ones that had been covered before but that it ruined the financial affordability of those that had coverage before and still didn't get those ones that need to be included covered.

My point on this blog is for us to be aware that we should and must change our lifestyle in order for us to be healthy and save our good life and money.

We can do it. My suggestion is to start exercising, invest in good membership to the gym and eat healthy. Read labels and drink a lot of water. Pack your diet with a lot of fruits and vegetables. Avoid bread that are loaded with gluten. Be aware of what your body can burn as oppose to amount of calories taken. Be consistent with yearly regular check up.

If you can make any suggestions, that would be so great.

Considering our site to be international, we can share our ways of diet and food preferences to be healthy.

Thank you all so much for your participation and comments.

NOTE: I know there are countries in the world, where health coverage is free with no conditions, i.e. Australia is one of them. How is your country and how do you get coverage?

WHEN DEATH CALL IS SO CLOSE

A lesson learned. Please make it a point to have yearly exam even if you don't feel pain or sick. Cancer when found out chances are, it is far too advance.

This is the main point of my blog why I brave to share it all 100 percent. For us all to learn. When they discovered the first time (1998), I didn't feel no pain and so I questioned the Specialists at first, thinking they just wanted to use my insurance, as I had the best coverage between me and my husband then. No deductible, no co-pay, (my ex was an engineer at the best union of the world, during that time) but after four independent specialists, I was rotten to the core and dying albeit no sign. Just my yearly exam..

They were going to cut me on November 26, after series of intensive and extensive exams, but felt no pain at all so I said: " No, cut me after this last holidays I have left with no pain"

And so it did...

A very different from all of my blogs and I am dedicating this poem I just posted at the PC for all SURVIVORS OF ANY KIND OF BATTLE they have been through.

Today is the second anniversary of my clearance from a very tough cancer (one in a million) kind, where I was declared to live at most of 90 days and with the help of all my specialists (6) and the one I loved then, who went through step by step with me on this journey, I am forever grateful..

To breath every second of your life, knowingly so that, any moment is to come, you will feel the inner strength within you and feel like a winner. Never lose sight of the fact that life is too short and therefore spend it usefully and positively and thankfully.

Thank you all for your comments and contributions and would welcome anyone to share their experience of nearly giving up at one time or another. It is very cathartic to say the least..

Did it ever changed your life? How?

MY STRENGTH
by: lindsyjones

deliverance of my strength
rising up to the melody
of my weakness
confidence and robust trust
with you I am melted
reduced to the submission
of my indomitable will
relentlessly yet yielding
into the claws of your dominance

impaired and restrained
I am swimming
in the wilderness of obscurity
with the intensity of abominable
and injurious apathy
I am, for once, dwindling
in the plight of the wind
dignity and pride escape me
but not losing sight
of the last drop of hope
I will hang unto

and as the seagulls
fly over me one more time
halfway buried
in the arid heat of the sand
as their eyes pierce me
with disdain and contempt
advancing towards my harmed
and languid body
I will not laugh, nor will I cry
but stand on my last ounce of force
shout back...

"is this all you've got?"

and while bleeding halfway to death
I will not give up!!

I will gather back all my strength
and with my fist curled up to the sky
believing one last time-

this is my one and only life..
only me can save me
from my own self destruct
and with the choirs of the angels
I rise up
with my will intact
never to lose this battle
I will fight back

because...

my strength is unbroken
my hope is unyielding
my love is forgiving
and I...am still standing
fighting, with all my strength
until my last breath is charged

there is no other way.

Third World War, A great possibility?

IS GLOBAL WAR IN THE MAKING? How much do we really know?

One of the greatest provision of our US Constitution is the fundamental right given us to be able to express ourselves freely.

Well, after realizing the direction of the press lately specially here in my country, I can't help but notice that the political and social expressions allowed by some of our information channels: radio, television and newspapers are so constrained in comparison of what and how it was ten years ago. Even on my favorite magazines, (Time and Newsweek) and newspaper (Wallstreet journal) as not as open and as brave as they should be. How do I know this? Well, first of all, the love of my life is so against liberal mindedness which is the mind set of my state (California) and second, there are two left news resource where you can truly digest the message unabridged as they should be and that is through FOX AND BLAZE.COM. He introduced me to these good old style of releasing information channel.

Up until I opened my eyes to the core of what is truly happening in the world relative to socio political and economic development, I could have thought that all are just great. Well it is not, specially if we we look at the military activities of the powerful countries today and listen to the most INTERESTING TOPICS ON YOU TUBE about the IMMINENCE OF THIRD WORLD WAR. Just choose all the topics that can help us understand what are the possibilities of breaking up the third global war and you can see it for yourself. The most interesting of all is the speech of Avi Lipkin, a born Jew, moved to Israel when 20, married a Muslim and analyzed the development of the true cause of the coming war. According to Mclaughlin the founder of free TV, is an expert on the Political activities of the Middle East. Surprisingly, it is stemming again, from a religious stand point, according to him.

This is a downer on the blogs but these are facts that somehow we have to face and accept as a catalyst of the activities on the future of our world and peace.

My observation according to the new move of the government is that anyone who spills the truth, they are silenced either by being openly brought to scrutiny and or let go as the case of the newscasters. Maybe I am wrong.

NOTE: I was hoping that with the advent of truth, and truly knowing what is happening we can somehow understand our future and be able to see the logic if war in global scale is really necessary? Remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Think of the magnitude of our destruction with the new tools available for war today.

I am also aware of the fact that war is the most PROFITABLE VENTURE IN THE WORLD OF THE CAPITALIST. Whose investments are on the roll of ammunition and warfare, not to mention the loot after the vanquish is done.

Thank you all so much for your contributions, comments and opinions..

COMMON SENSE

After a series of introspection and skin deep examination as to what most of us would be with, (TURNS ON AND OFF), I would like to go back to one item I am so inclined to fall into.

COMMON SENSE.

Here is the question: Would you rather be with someone who is intelligent but lacking common sense? Or the one with average intelligence and full of common sense?

Why?

Or have you met one with both? And? Or are you still searching and hope to find him/her? Given up?

Thanks for all your contribution.

NOTE: DEFINITION ON BOTH IS ON WIKIPEDIA OR ANY DICTIONARY..But can be individualized by your own. Also this attribute is just an addition to the many factors you'd wish to find with whom you are looking for..

Thank you so much for all your opinions and contributions.
