    As the saying goes “Adversity is the best teacher”. Those who have a bad and unexpected fall in their lives but also rise to the occasion  remarkably  by treating the situation as a challenge or a hurdle which has to be crossed successfully and are able to overcome their challenges are the real heroes. They are a good role model for a…[Read more]

    The best ways to drive away the summer heat are also the following

    1. Wear lightweight cotton clothes. Avoid tight clothes.

    2. Crush an Onion and tie it in a cloth. keep it in your trousers pocket. It prevents heat from being absorbed by the body.

    3. Try to take an Umbrella when you go out or ask other elders to hold one when they need…[Read more]

    I do accept with one thing. Ladies are more selfish when it comes to a relationship….relationship, I mean not the one confined to her husband but to his parents and other relatives.

    I know a lady who after marriage started telling some lies about her in-laws and spread them to the neighborhood. The only sin the in-laws committed was accepting…[Read more]

    I was invited to join a writing site.  Unlike the crowd, I do my research first.  I have been on so many sites since 2007 that I am qualified to write this article.

    In ancient days a writing venue would pay for w […]

    • What sites according to you are trustful to write articles for?

      • As of this minute; this site, Mylot and possibly, Niume… although I was paid once from Niume I am not yet fully convinced

    • This is so true, I have tried many sites in the past some have been great some have been awful. I gave up on writing online for a while but am trying some new sites out now. This being one of them.

      • This site is pretty good. But let me warn you. if you write factual pieces the A.I. might flag you for plagiarism. For example, if you write; “Cyclone Debbie caused major damage, torrential rain and power cuts to tens of thousands of homes”. Your item will be flagged because that is how the BBC describes it.

    • Very well said, and it is true as we online writers had experienced. I am glad Literacybase and myLot are included in your list of trusted sites.

    • Thanks for the info. I am on two writing sites only and more active in LB. I guess it’s because I am new and yet to get paid. I have been off LB for days now, due to work. I have been so busy in the office lately, once I get home, I’m tired.

    • Tried many sites and many were fake, but still have faith

    • Have you ever enter short story writing comptions?
      like what writer digest has

      • I entered one at webooks which deteriorated into a zoo… because crapwriter got the most votes because he had duals and friends.

    Yes. The last two things looking like the situations to laugh at. But, as you said taking the name of the God if you can not recover from the fall, and  getting into a fall with an unexpected shock both are different.

    • Sorry to hear about the situation in your country due to climate change and drought.They really affect a country badly. I saw one blog here having the people forced to drink boko juice instead of colas due to health factors.Thanks for sharing your nice blog.

    • I totally agree that we all must change our eating habits. Eating healthy is a sure way of staying alive. I’m about going for a health check to know my status, the last one done was in 2011. I was a clean state of health, I felt good. Over the years, I have now changed my eating habits, from drinking coke to water, eating junk to veggies etc. I pray to come out clean, I need to be alive for my kids. Although eating healthy seems kind of expensive, but I purchase what is affordable and follow that route.

    • I love coconut food delicacies like the ones you posted here. It is indeed a tree of life with so many uses from its roots to leaves.

      • Me too. I love all the foods from the coconut as well as the young coconut.

        Especially buko salad, wow, it’s delicious. Though it could be costly to make one.

        The lumpiang sariwa is also a favorite. Though, I don’t make it but just always buy from an eatery that really makes a very delicious one, even without the dip.

        Do you like bukayo too. Here, you can buy a pack for just 20 pesos. I would buy one every now and then and keep it in the drawer of my office table. I eat it for dessert after my brunch.

    • I never knew that part “ubod” could be eaten ..i thought you posted a photo of a bamboo shoots but when I googled it it was really ubod..

      buko indeed is very useful and deserves to be called “the tree of life” .. we have lots of coconut trees around and just last night I made a buko ice cream.

      • @kat2x ,

        I suppose you are a Filipino too. So, you don’t know what ubod is.

        Actually, it can be eaten raw. It’s sweet and delicious as it is. But when made into a veggie viand with coconut milk, some slices of pork, chopped finger chili and some pepper, a little salt , garlic and onion , it is so delicious!

        Also you should have a taste of the fresh lumpia which is sauteed ubod, with some chopped baguio beans, julienned carrots, chopped roasted peanuts wrapped in a wrapper made of egg. It’s so delicious too. Especially with a dip of a bit sweet with chopped roasted peanuts, it’s heavenly.

        Buko ice cream? I have tasted an ice cream with buko bits and it indeed delicious too.

        SO i bet your buko ice cream is delicious. 🙂

    • I think a coconut tree was probably in the Garden of Eden. Eden was a paradise. A coconut is a fruit of paradise. Seems a logical thought. 🙂 I do love coconut!

      • Hmm, really you think of that as in the Garden of Eden. I don’t though, because the setting there i think is not of a tropical country. 🙂

        So, have you seen a coconut tree? Where did you see it? Have you already tasted a buko(young coconut) salad?

        What are the other foods from the coconut that you have eaten?

        It’s juice is so delicious too. I suppose you have already drank one. 🙂
