A simpler way to sharpen your memory

A recent study says that we don’t lose our memory as we age, we just temporarily lose access to some part of it. Here’s a fun way I would like to share to hone your mind. Staying in touch with friends and loved ones could slow the pace at which your memory dwindles with age.
.
In a study of 16,638 older adults, people who were married, active in volunteer groups, and in regular contact with friends, family, and neighbors had slower declines in memory than their less social counterparts.

I wish you good luck and thank you for reading

Do you know how friendship breaks?

GOOD DAY!
Well, in the friendship, the first thing both friends will think the other is busy and they will not contact each other, by thinking that it may be disturbing.
.
And then as time passes, both will think let the other person contact me. After that each will think why I should contact and why I should contact him or her first?
.
Do you know what is going to happen next?

Here their love will be converted to hate each other… so sad isn’t it?

Well finally without contact the memory becomes weak and then they forget each other. And their friendship breaks up.

So please keep in touch with all of your friends and feel free to share this with everyone you love.

I wish you good luck with your friendship

Giving the gift of life helps you to live longer and healthier

You could be the first person to give someone a second chance at life. Blood has been called the river of life because it carries oxygen and nutrients throughout our body. Blood is essential to life, a precious gift that we can share as a volunteer donor. Your blood will help save someone's life and there is no greater way to give of ourselves than to donate blood. Blood isn't everyone's favorite topic. In fact, I would like to share my own experience about a simple act that can literally saves lives.

Did you know that donating blood helps us to live longer and healthier? Scientists found striking evidence that people with more iron in their bodies are at greater risk of heart attacks and the men who donate blood are far less likely to have a heart attack than those who are not blood donors. I was extremely surprised myself to find such a strong relationship between blood donation and protection against heart disease. Giving blood to help others may be prolonging our own lives.

People have many questions about donation. Perhaps you want to be a donor but you're worried about what this involves. Well, I was nervous at my first time, but the medical staff answered all my questions. Donating blood is not painful and is completely safe for us. A small percentage of first time donors may psychologically feel a little dizzy but only for a few minutes. I assure you the procedure is simple, my first blood donation was a happy experience and a feeling of joy and satisfaction. It made me a regular blood donor. Only 350 to 450 ml blood is taken which gets replaced in our body within 24 hours, it is done by skilled specially trained technicians and the whole procedure take just 10 to 15 minutes. They check my blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature and iron levels. We can do it up to three times a year. In fact there are many people who have donated more than 100 times in their life time.

Blood is indeed something special for us, It can't be manufactured, something money can't buy, only something one person can give to another. It isn't every day you can do something to save someone's life. But it can be a common experience, if you give blood to survive illness or injury. Every day, thousands of people need donations to live. You may give a newborn, a child, a mother, a father, a brother, or a sister another chance at life. In fact, you may help save up to three lives with just one donation.

If you're like most people, you have a precious gift that you can keep on giving. Since you can spare it, why not share it…regularly. Your body doesn't mind one way or the other. If you donate, the order goes out to replace what was taken. I would encourage you to encourage your family and friends. After all, you will never know when you or someone you love could use it.

Let’s make a difference in our community by helping others, do something amazing, donate blood and save a life.

I wish you to live longer and healthier

Thank you very much for your precious time and reading.

Smiles are the language of love

A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.
Life is short but a smile takes barely a second.
Every tear has a smile behind it.
A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.
A good neighbor is a fellow who smiles at you over the back fence, but doesn't climb over it.
If you see a friend without a smile; give him one of yours.
A smile starts on the lips, A grin spreads to the eyes, A chuckle comes from the belly; But a good laugh bursts forth from the soul, Overflows, and bubbles all around Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful.
Too often we underestimate the power of a smile, which have the potential to turn a life around.
Smiles are the language of love.
The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.
A smile is an inexpensive way to change your looks
All people smile in the same language.
A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.
Smile becoz God gave Human this beautiful gift - A Smile....I sometimes wonder do animals have this beautiful gift of smiling???
So Smileeeeeee please :-)) ...... Hmmm... Good, looks very good, infact suits you the best :-)

Have A Great Day

Every day should be a good day and you should live it like it's your last. Some people live a life of anger, frustration, pain, jealousy, and/or dishonesty, but all of these things will come to pass when your time here is over. Just take a moment to think, we will not be on this earth forever. One day, we will not have to worry about going to work or how we will make our car payment. We will not have to worry where our next meal will come from, or how we can buy that P1,000,000.00 house. At anytime, Allah could take us off of this earth, so you should appreciate today and not worry about tomorrow, for nobody knows what tomorrow will bring.
When you wake up each morning, thank the Allah for waking you up. When you lie down to sleep at night, thank the Allah for another day. If you have a job, thank the Allah for your place of employment. Ask that he May bless you in everything that you do. Ask him to give you the Knowledge and the wisdom to do your job. If you don't have a job, thank him anyway. Ask him to direct you to the job that is right for you. When you are eating breakfast, lunch or dinner, say a prayer. Thank the Lord for providing food and nourishment to your body. If you are healthy, thank the Allah for the health and strength in your body. If you aren't, thank him anyway for life, and ask him to heal your body.
So the next time that you get mad, think twice. The next time you complain about something at your job, think twice. The next time you say you wish you had steak instead of chicken, think twice. Be thankful for what you have, and the life that Allah has given you. Pray and ask the Lord for guidance. Be sincere, as Allah knows whether or not we mean it from the heart. Help those in need as a gift from your heart, and not so you can get a pat on the back. Put forth the extra effort in everything that you do. Go after what you want in life, and do whatever it takes to achieve your goals. No matter how perfect you think you are, there are always room for improvement, and an opportunity for you to do better. If you are depressed, don't cry just hold your head up and the Lord will help you through. Pray and ask the Lord to deliver you from your state of depression. Whatever it is that you are depressed about, God will take that pain from you heart. It may not be at that moment, or that Next hour, or maybe not even the next day, but he WILL do it if you just believe in him. Allah may not show up when YOU want him to, but he's ALWAYS right in time. Allah will not give us more than we can bear. Sometimes He will present us with issues that will test our faith, but you have to be strong enough to believe that Allah will do exactly what he says. The message for today is to praise the Allah, have faith in the Allah, give thanks to the Lord, and live every day like it is your last.
Theoretically speaking, if the Lord never does anything else for us, other than wake us up each day, put food in our mouths and clothes on our backs, we should thank him anyway. He died so that we could have life on this earth. Always Say “Alhamthulillah”

Practice forgiveness

Forgiveness is something we all should practice regularly on daily basis. Most of the world religions teaching on forgiveness and the most profound human example Mohammed (PBUH) as an example of someone who forgives others for their ignorance, even those who considered themselves to be his enemies.

Forgiveness is a gift for all Mankind, it is a peace of mind and a way of releasing ourselves from the pain we have experienced from others. Most of us have reflection of our past experiences so many negative and fearful emotions that make us feel powerless. Holding onto grievances only causes us pain, suffering and conflict. We refuse to expend a lot of energy thinking about how others have wronged us. Instead we can use our energy to focus on what we need to do most important things in life. We can't go along in life for too long before we have an opportunity to forgive someone. We may not verbally lash out, but we can get upset with people in our thoughts, without even realizing we need to forgive them. Release yourself. Let it go and know that the person who forgives is always strongest person.

Did you know that? Practicing forgiveness is not something we do for other people, We do it for our own sake to get well and move on. It does not change our past. Instead, it changes our feelings about the past. People who are willing and able to forgive tend to be more satisfied with their life. Let your friends, enemies or a person someone who hurts you know that you have forgiven.

However, forgiveness is taking positive action reconnecting us with our own power. I would encourage you to understand and allow yourself to exercise in forgiveness with your hand on your heart, take a deep breath and let it go. Let’s feel less stress, less anger, and more forgiveness

Let’s practice forgiveness until it becomes one of our habits

Thank you for your precious time

The sun has gone down?




The sun has begun to go down.
The street is suddenly all alive with the air of breaking fast.
It was just another evening of Ramadhan.
Children carrying ‘kanji’ buckets were coming from the mosque.
The aroma of finely fried cutlets and patties start teasing my taste buds.
I looked at the clock in the front hall.
Still almost one hour before the calling of azan for Mahrib.
‘patties…. rolls’
A weak but energetic voice was heard.
There stood two little boys , each carrying a box on their head.
They were so thin and small in size.I saw a whole world of innocence in their large eyes.
My mother started to count the patties needed for the evening.
They start to scratch the heads.My mother asked them why they were doing so.
‘Head is burning’one boy replied.The hot shorteats must be just taken out from the sizzling oil in the vok.
I gazed at their young faces…
‘What is your name, thambi ’
I am Muhammed….
This is ahmed’ the older boy pointed his finger to the smaller one.
‘Are you schooling..I was curious.
Muhammed nodded his head.He is in grade 5 and his brother is in grade 3.
I learnt later from my mother that the boys were from the outskirt ofMawanela.Their father is a blind man and their mother had passed away.The boys’ Aunt is taking care of them and she is the one who make patties. ]
Just think a minute! Don't these kids deserve a chance to live like other kids with all the good things in life?
Just think about the amount of burden in their shoulder.
The long uncertain road spread infront of them…
Today when you sit on your dinning table just look around the food stuff…the varieties
Just open your wardrobe and see how many rich suits you own.
Imagine how much you spend for a week on Cosmetics …to beautify yourself.
Think for a second about the poor and orphan children around you.
If you have a heart….
your life will never going to be the same again.

Be Proud of yourself

It doesn’t matter where you are and what you do. Don’t be afraid to be proud for who you are and tell others the feeling of being your best. You know what? If you are reading this article, you are a person who is interested in making more of yourself and you really want to develop your ability. If that is who you are, I would like to share that how every one of us can be proud of ourselves?

Make a positive list of all the things that you can be proud of for an example, you may be proud of your education, your work, your friends, your family, your neighborhood, your country, your government, your culture, your religion, your healthy body, your personal grooming, and your manners.

Don’t be hesitate or ashamed of anything, be proud of what you have done and put your name on it. Let others know it was you. Don’t hide yourself and wish that you had done something. Be confident stand up when someone says your name. Don’t worry about what anyone else has to say about you. Just know that, it is very important for each of us to learn to love ourselves and to be proud of our accomplishments. Even when it seems like you are failing at life, you should still remember to be proud of yourself for trying. You should be thankful when you wake up every morning that you have another day of trying ahead of you. Each day brings more opportunities for you. Be proud of the chance you get to tackle each of these opportunities. Some may bring you more success than others, but the efforts are always worth more than you realize. If you can look at every thing in life with a positive attitude, you will be creating the path to true happiness. We should be proud of ourselves no matter what.

Thank you for reading and I wish you to be always proud of yourself.
