You made me laugh when I read Number 5 because it reminded me of when I was little and my mom always telling me not to frown because my face would stay that way. The thought of my face having a permanent upside down smile was really scary! The thought now also makes me laugh. Laughter is universal. 🙂

When you think something is funny, you laugh. But do you know why and how you laugh? This part of the lesson addresses the science of laughter in terms of how the brain reacts to an external stimulus that is funny.

First of all, laughter is not the same as humor. Laughter is the physiological respo­nse to humor. Laughter consists of two parts — a set of gestures and the production of a sound. When we laugh, the brain pressures us to conduct both those activities simultaneously. When we laugh heartily, changes occur in many parts of the body, even the arm, leg and trunk muscles.

It is a solid fact that nothing balances your nervous system faster than communicating face-to-face with another person. Add laughter to that communication and you have a powerful antidote to stress, anxiety, pain, and conflict. Humor lightens your burdens, inspires hopes, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert.

With so much power to heal and renew, the ability to laugh easily and frequently is a tremendous resource for surmounting problems, enhancing your relationships, and supporting both physical and emotional health.

Stop learning. Stop growing. I agree. Get an education. If the traditional method of schooling does not work for you, find another way. But get an education. Being ignorant is only going to hurt you.

There are many ways to get the education a person needs. If he could have it in a formal education for he has no time, for he is working full-time, there is a non-formal education which he could avail of. It may either be a home study, a modular study, or this so-called alternative learning system (ALS),

This is a real estate investing tip for when you go house hunting. If you see fruit trees in the yard, consider that home as a potentially worthwhile investment. The house I grew up in was built mostly from wood, but I wouldn’t trade the fruit trees that grew in our yard for anything! Sadly, my childhood home no longer exists. But I have the lesson in real estate investing that I learned from living there, to hold on to. 🙂

That is good advice. It is also my tendency to buy a lot with a tree growing. I feel better at home when I see trees around. I grew up in a place where trees are growing in abundance. Late in the after or even noon time, you could hear the beautiful sound from the chirping of the birds. It is so nice to see them playing on the branches of the trees.

Certainly, President Elect Rodrigo Duterte i think is the best President to ever conquer the Philippines presidency. Not only of his great love for his country but to lead all of his people in the right path, goodness, and unity. Most especially on his drug campaign which is being sensational now a days not only here in the philippines but in every part of the world. We must fight with our might to stop and destroy drugs which leading our people in total ruin. For me, being a hero is something we should strive for, to give our best for the sake of other with the love we have for our country unselfishly, and to die, defending our nation’s unity and peace.

As of this time, many Filipino would consider the Philippine President Rody Duterte as a hero. In his early governance, he was able to crack down the drugs issues in the country. Drugs have destroyed lots of the family. They have ruined the future of the youths. The all-out war imposed by President Duterte against drug lords, drug pushers and even users was supported by the Filipino people.

So far, there are more than a thousand drug-related killings had been recorded. And there will be more coming. Some sectoral groups claim that it’s a human rights violations. Those who have been killed haven’t given the chance to defend themselves. Their families, relatives shouted foul. They’re looking for the justice.

Well, it couldn’t be denied that the rating of the new president was very satisfactory. The people were comfortable for the governing style employed by the president. In today’s celebration of National Heroes Day in the country the Philippines, President Duterte should be considered the new hero of the Philippines.

Without him, drug lords, drug pushers and the drug users haven’t been cracked down and killed. Drugs according to the President is the number enemy of the society and it should be destroyed. It should be never given a chance to continue, to influence the youth, and every fiber of the society. It should be totally eradicated.

Mabuhay, the modern hero in the person of President Duterte.

Hero Day will be celebrated with full pomp and show in Philippine I think that National Heroes’ Day is a national holiday of Philippines, celebrated to pay homage to the National Heroes of the country. Every year this day falls on the fourth Monday of August. Initially National Heroes’ day was celebrated on 30th of November as it was the birthday of Andres Bonifacio, founder of the Katipunan.

These heroes are the men and women in Philippine history whose acts of courage enabled the Philippines to grow as a nation. Whilst National Heroes Day celebrates both known and unknown heroes, a National Heroes Committee was set up in 1995 to recommend those who should be counted as ‘National Heroes’. Following certain criteria, they found a select group of people who, they believed, should be honoured for their deeds. These were:

Jose Rizal
Andres Bonifacio
Emilio Aguinaldo
Apolinario Mabini
Marcelo H. del Pilar
Sultan Dipatuan Kudarat
Juan Luna
Melchora Aquino
Gabriela Silang

Jose Rizal and Andres Bonifacio were two of the main proponents against Spanish rule. As a result, both were given their own special days commemorating their lives and deeds.

This is very interesting! My mom went through a stage of being interested in numerology when I was young and I’d always steal the books she got from the library and read them. Always found them complex.

Numerolgy is sometimes some sort of ways of fortelling the destiny of someone but don’t ever count on it. It’s demonic. Why? No one can tell or even know what would be the destiny of peope but God alone. Star worship is forbidden even bofore by the Church. Astrology, palmistry, numerology, horoscope, divination is a tool of Satan to decieved the world.

Thanks for sharing, this is sound very interesting! I will give a try later of the day for some fun. Is this the one of the ways of fortune telling as well? We believe on looking for someone in front of the temple for telling our future.

I feel that health is the most important thing in life. we run for money but we forget to pay attention to what our body has to say

Everyone must have the concept of health from the very beginning because health is wealth and health is God’s blessing on earth. ‘Health’ is an elusive word. Most people who consider themselves healthy are not. And many people who are suffering from some known disease, may be relatively healthy.

Health is a concept which does not merely relate to the absence of disease, of healthy working of organs, or having good thoughts. Health is a holistic concept. It relates to a person as a whole. Not just the person you see, but also the person you ‘feel’. Health is a tri-une of three parts:

This is probably the easiest to define and yet it is sometimes the most difficult to understand. Physical health can be defined as a state in which all the body parts are anatomically intact and are performing their physiological functions perfectly and harmoniously. It is a very simplistic definition, but it basically covers everything like:

All the body parts should be there
All of them are in their natural place and position
None of them has any pathology
All of them are doing their physiological functions properly
And they work with each other harmoniously

Yes everyone in the world takes ones health for granted since childhood. The concept that our body is a machine and has to be taken care well is not taught and highlighted. And this leads many to neglect their health by taking the same for granted. Till the time they land into some health issue or the other.

They seem to realize the value of their health only after the damage has been done and it is irreversible. Till that time people feel such things happen to others and not to me as I have never had any health issues in my life till now. This careless attitude is what is inviting health problems to oneself. Many also neglect or never care the messages which our body gives that something is really bad with our body and needs to be attended to. Till the time it crashes they keep continuing with it. A well written article to be read once in a few days by all.

Good healthy eating tips.

I make it a habit to take apple cider at least three times in two weeks for th3 purpose of detoxing and so far it is doing me some good. I always feel rejuvinated when i take the cider.

I am not a diabetic and just a couple of days I got my report and noticed I have low blood sugar. I am a small eater and that is what my doctor says could be the issue. I am asked to eat several times in the day

It is very important to be health conscious to avoid bad sicknesses, but sometimes human as we are we cannot avoid temptation to eat foods that are against the body.It is bad to eat foods like what you mentioned here if having a diabetic family members in the past for that could be hereditary if not through abuse.

Enjoy all foods in moderation but if you are already diabetic, avoiding certain foods is something you must do. My late father was diabetic.

First I tell you what is blood sugar and from where it reachesin our blood. Blood sugar or blood glucose refers to sugar that is transported through the bloodstream to supply energy to all the cells in our bodies.

The sugar is made from the food we eat. The human body regulates blood glucose levels so that they are neither too high nor too low – maintaining a condition of stability or equilibrium in the blood’s internal environment (homeostasis) is necessary for our bodies to function.

The use of the word “sugar” in “blood sugar” is a colloquial term, a misnomer. Glucose, one type of sugar, is the one in the bloodstream that feeds cells and matters to us.

The human digestive system breaks down the carbohydrates from food into various sugar molecules – one of them is glucose, the body’s principal source of energy. The glucose goes straight from the digestive system into the bloodstream after we have consumed and digested food. Glucose can only enter cells if there is insulin in the bloodstream too. Without any insulin the cells would starve.

After we eat, blood sugar concentrations rise, the pancreas releases insulin automatically so that the glucose enters cells, as more and more cells receive glucose, blood sugar levels come down to normal again. Excess glucose is stored as glycogen (stored glucose) in the liver and muscles.
