PEACE OF MIND

You may have come to a place in your life where you feel insecure. This is because of some maladjusment in your affairs. Turmoil and tenseness follow. You feel at odds with your friends and the world in general. Now if at such a time you give too mucnh attention to the discord--if you forget that there is an indestructible, changeless,universal harmony in spirit--then you only get more and more irritable and frustrated. How can you avoid being defeated by this depressed state of mind and the confusion that follows it? Well,one great thing you can do is to turn away from the appearane of things and center your attention on ideas of order,rhythm,balance,and try for a soul-satisfying peace of mind. It often helps to listen to good music. This has calmed many a troubled mind and brightened many a heavy heart. To consciously appreciate music brings one into close relationship with harmonious expression. Next time you feel on edge and in a chip-on-the shoulder mood, tune into the radio or play one of your favorite tunes. You may be surprised to see how much it will help you. Then as you listen to the music, do not forget to praise the wondrous miracle of musical composition and performance..

Gelombang Rakyat said...: Ladies and Gentlemen,
I dedicate this poem especially to a unique individual whose nature is an extension of her love for pets. The title is
"To Pet Not For A Pat".
into her home she welcomes more than one pet;
for without shelter in rain or snow they shiver wet;
with all the love her heart never hopes to get;
any reward praise flowers or any material set;
but surely money she has to earn yet;
for the basic needs of her special guests to be met;
so now she builds a blog shrining on the internet;
based on her sincere hope so there is no need to bet;
at MyBlogLog she begins to let; information sharing with networks spread like a net;
soon the number of friends add starts to rocket;
truly total success awaiting her speedier than a jet.
Especially dedicated to Lilyruth, by Zubli Zainordin.; 5/02/2007

PROTECT YOUR KIDS ONLINE TODAY

Protect your kids online. Today. Posted by Five Mom, Hilda Morales, As a school Parent Support Specialist for the past several years, sharing important information with parents is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. I would like to thank you for logging on to this blog and would like to share some important information with you. Since cough medicine abuse is largely unknown to parents, this is a subject I plan to invest considerable time in raising awareness about over the next few months. Parents also are largely unaware that the abuse of cough medicines containing dextromethorphan is being promoted online, and I am determined to counter those negative influences with an equal amount of awareness and education online. That’s the goal of the Five Moms Campaign, after all. Hundreds of web sites, online communities, and blogs promote the abuse of cough medicine. Even social networking sites like YouTube, Facebook, and MySpace have users who provide instructions for, conversations about, and videos of cough medicine abuse. Users blog and post videos about specific plans to abuse cough medicine, how they use it, and what to expect at certain doses. They also offer guides on how much to abuse to get a certain type of high and how to combine dextromethorphan with other drugs. I am not linking to any of these sites because I don’t want to send them any more traffic, but they are out there and they are dangerous. I also would like to invite you to visit your child’s “My Space page” and see the information that he/she is sharing with the online community. You can also protect your children from these online predators and this destructive information by: Making sure that your children are never online without your permission. Be clear with your kids about your rules on Internet use at home and outside of the home. Placing your computer in an area of the house where you can easily supervise their Internet activity. Asking your children about who they talk to and what activities they do online. Using parental filters to block access to questionable sites. Building an open and trusting relationship with your kids about their online use. ---------------------------------------- kids use slang like “Dex,” “DXM,” “Skittles,” and “Tussin” to describe cough medicines. And they describe cough medicine abuse with slang like “Robo-tripping,” “Dex-ing,” “Smurfing,” and “Skittling.” --------------------------------------------------------
