Saving some cash is a better idea and one must follow it to safeguard one’s future. We must save something from time to time. It does not mean that we should be frugal but trying to save whenever it is possible is a better idea in this regard.
-
Handling money is an art whether to spend it or save it. Everything has to be in limits.

nice post

Learning to handle your finances at an early age is always a good thing. I wish someone would have told me when I was young. Maybe I wouldn’t be so bad off now. Learning to budget is another good thing to learn. Learn to say no to things you really don’t need. Learning to say no to my kids is a hard thing for me.

Eating a sandwich in the morning would be a better idea when it comes to improving one’s health. A boiled egg may do the same but I think a sandwich is a better option.
You shared a simple recipe and it will make the process very simple and easy.

It tastes good even without butter. I have stopped using butter a long time ago.

Boiled Egg Delight? That’s a perfect name for that sandwich. 🙂

I really wanted to be in mastery of English. I have been taught and learned this language since I was in grade 2 or 3 during my elementary days until I was in college days. Until know that I’m 42 years old I find I’m not yet master or shall I say still a newbie in English. My grammar is not good but I am really trying to have a good communication skills in English, I just hope I can make it even here in writing.

You need to be exposed to opportunities, opportunities that let you be in touch with those who speak and write good English. Finally it is the exposure that matters.

English is the language of modern age because the source of earning in country and out of country rests on spoken and written English. To be master of English on not difficult but you must be full of conceptions.
First of all we write just conception, thoughts, feelings and emotions and nothing else.There are three things that are must to be the mater of English micro skills as reading and writing skill, listening and speaking skill. To be the master of English you must know three things fully, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation pattern.
Grammar structure tells you how to construct ideas in an organized way, pronunciation will help you in spoken language and vocabulary will help you to express your ideas. Besides, idioms and phrasal verbs are most important to be the master of English.
The best grammar AJ Thomson and Martinet written, Name Practical English Grammar, Pronunciation pattern is defined in the best way in Advanced Learner Dictionary by AS Horn By, for vocabulary building Chambers Dictionary is the best because you can find all worlds in it old and new.
I will write a full article very soon how to be the master of English micro skills for my readers’ guideline.
-
British follow one style and the US follow their own. That more than supports my statement 😀
-
-
There is no logic that can help one master the language. It is only the constant use and exposure can help grasp the language.
-
I have never heard of breadfruit. Is that a British fruit? Yes, American English is so different from the English of those from Britain or even Austrailia. We have certain words here in America that mean something different in England and vice versa.

You say right that every drop of water makes seas and river, canal and lake but a few know its importance at home an out of homes. It is said that drops make seas and rivers.
Many people are unaware of the amount of water they waste on a daily basis. But the truth is, water is a critical resource in every
bodies lives, and unfortunately, we simply cannot afford to waste perfectly good water.How to save water at home:
Replace shower heads, toilets and sinks with more efficient, low-flow water models. Using a water efficient shower head can save up to 750 gallons a month.
Always wash only full loads of laundry and dishes. Whenever possible, choose the short cycle at low water levels.
Do not let the water run when brushing your teeth or washing dishes by hand.
Shorten your showers by about a minute or so, and you can save up to 150 gallons per month.
Keep a pitcher of water in the refrigerator for cold drinks instead of using the tap. This way excess drops are not wasted down the drain each time you pour a glass of water.
Ditch bottled water, and drink the tap water. Most tap water is no different than bottled water, and this reduces the waste that the would end up in a landfill from the plastic.
Water your lawn and garden in the evening when temperatures are cooler to minimize evaporation.
Repair leaks! According to the Department of Health and Human Services, a leaky faucet that drips at one drop per second wastes up to seven gallons of water per day.
Make use of leftover water. Keep a pitcher of water near your sink or shower and use the unused water from showering or drinking to water house plants.
Harvest rainwater to use to for a variety of reasons. Place barrels outside to catch the excess rainwater, and use that water to water the lawn or garden.-
Right when I designed my home I had laid channels to wast water to lead to trees. It is the individuals that make or break anything on earth and saving water comes under that.

We are not living in urban area but we can still feel the shortage of water every summer. From the month May the water in the deep well started the shortage. Even though we are living in rural areas but the water become so short during summer days. We are not depending on water system but even the houses depending in water system experienced the shortage last season.
That is true, conserving water is one of the best answer to avoid this problem.
-
There is no shortage of water but there is wastage of water.
-
-
Good topic and an interesting one at that. Wasting water is a cruel thing to do in this world of scarce resources and is an attitude of careless individuals. We sometimes feel like let go when we see our taps just dropping water without knowing that a little drops of water make mighty ocean. We should realise that there are places where water is more like gold and very expensive as a result not waste it. We should know that is a gift from the most high God to humanity and wasting it is a way of not appreciating the gift from God.
-
It is not at all difficult to save water if individuals become responsible citizens. It is not just water anywhere and everywhere with a bit of thought this world could be a great place to live but sadly man seems to be a selfish animal

Holland is one the best heaven for the tourists as I have read in many books but unluckily I have not seen Amsterdam with my physical eyes many time I have seen Amsterdam with my spiritual eyes in dreams and pic.
Amsterdam has very old links with the United States. In 1780, John Adams opened the first American embassy in the world in Amsterdam. However, the first contacts with Amsterdam were actually much older. In 1609, Henry Hudson left Amsterdam’s Schreierstoren in his ship De Halve Maen. After a long journey, he reached the island of Manhattan where he founded Nieuw Amsterdam, which later became New York City.
The beer traders from Hamburg may well have been the first foreigners in the fledgling city of Amsterdam. Since 1600, Amsterdam has been a favourite tourist destination for German visitors, which becomes apparent from many travel journals. German visitors are still ranked at an honourable third place on the Amsterdam Tourist Barometer.

The ‘red light’ area is open unlike how it is hidden here in India. Thanks for providing all the historical stories about Holland.
-
-
I don’t know much about Holland except that a friend, one of my former co-workers, went there on vacation and she said that the tulips were a big deal! 🙂
-
Tulips are a big deal there but as I have said in my post I missed the season. I was so hoping to swim in there 😀

That looks delicious but I think there is a difference to the agar-agar of your friend than the agar-agar we cook in our place. In our place the ingredients include fruits like cubed apple, papaya, cherries, pineapple and many more. But in here the brown sugar is one of the ingredient. I actually thought this is a nata de coco which our place really good in making this.
But the most important is the many recipes we can make from the coconut fruit. We sometimes make buko salad which comprises of many kinds of fruits with the main ingredient of the coconut. This is just good for this Christmas season.

You always share great recipes. I need to go back and revisit your posts. 🙂

Will never forget the first time I tasted lychee. First of all, I was attracted to it because it’s my favorite color but when I taste it? I was very happy! 🙂

Ain’t nothing like spending time in the kitchen with the family getting all creative.

Ancient Chinese legend has it that dedication to the health benefits of lychee prompted consumption of several hundred lychees per day. The results of this practice aren’t reported. But there is medical proof that lychees can relieve coughing, ease abdominal pain, and have a positive effect on tumors and swollen glands. The seeds are prescribed for testicular inflammation and neuralgia pain.
Tea made from lychee peelings is said to cure smallpox and diarrhea. In India, the seeds are ground to make tea for stomach trouble. Parts of the bark, root, and lychee flowers are gargled for sore throat.
Lychee is rich in dietary fiber to help maintain optimum regularity and a healthy weight. One of this fruit’s most plentiful and unique nutrients is oligonol, which contains a number of valuable antioxidants with the ability to fight flu viruses, improve blood flow, and protect the skin from UV rays.
Lychee is loaded with vitamin C, providing 119% of the recommended daily value in one serving. This further protects against colds and other infections, helps the body develop resistance, and fights inflammation.
Other nutritive ingredients in lychee include high levels of B vitamins, such as vitamin B6, as well as potassium (which helps help control heart rate and blood pressure and stave off strokes and heart disease), thiamin, niacin, folate, and copper (which produces red blood cells, maintains healthy bones, prevents thyroid problems, and anemia). All these are vital for maintaining carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolization.
However, consume lychees in moderation because they contain fructose, which may be harmful to your health in excessive amounts.

That’s a wonderful passion you have, photography. And yes, only a few have that kind of skills.
I tried taking pictures many times with my phone but I am not satisfied with the outcome. I cannot say there is wrong of my camera because when my sister uses it, she got some good pictures. So, I must say, it’s not a passion of mine. Maybe I am just a lover of nature that I want to take some souvenirs of them through photos but I cannot do proper photography. 🙂

peachpurple..very nice research.Parents play a pivotal role in the life of their child.There are many who are very rigid.They dont even like to talk to them or listen to what he or she wants to say.They scold them and sometimes punish them. When they come to know that their child has not completed his or her homework, they would say: you cant have your dinner.You go and finish your home work first. Parents should change their way of thinking. They should not insult their child.
-
Those statistics are very alarming. And it’s quite unfortunate that this really is happening in our society. And sometimes it’s very overwhelming to the parents sometimes. At that age th3 kids get really agitated with small things, they become unruly and talking to them can be a bit cumbersome, and very frustrating, but that should not make th3 parents get discouraged and turn away from their rebellious children. Most of the time suicidal thoughts come into being when the kids are not satisfied with their surroundings or they are not confident with themselves. So when parents notice these kids becoming miners and rebellious that’s the time they need to get close to them and talk. Not that it’s going to be an easy task but trying can make a difference in their lives. All they ar3 looking for us attention and when that attention is not found them they seem solace in the suicidal thoughts, oters become sick, others depression sets I and that’s when things get really bad. It’s always good to also once in a while check what your kids are watching and listening to, because that could also be a cause that may lead to the kind of thoughts that they may be having.

Teenage suicide is the major problem of modern age but I think it shows the darkest mood of the teens due to some severe disappointment> I explanis suicide in these words as Teen suicide is a growing health concern. It is the third-leading cause of death for young people ages 15 to 24, surpassed only by homicide and accidents, according to the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention
National suicide prevention efforts have focused on school education programs, crisis center hotlines, screening programs that seek to identify at-risk adolescents, media guidelines (suicide prevention strategies that involve educating media professionals about the prevalence of copy-cat suicides among adolescents, in an effort to minimize the impact of news stories reporting suicide) and efforts to limit firearm access.
Screening programs have proven to be helpful because research has shown that suicidal people show signs of depression or emotional distress. Referrals can be made for treatment, and effective treatment can be employed when signs are observed in time. Intervention efforts for at-risk youth can put them in contact with mental health services that can save their lives.
Suicide is a relatively rare event and it is difficult to accurately predict which persons with these risk factors will ultimately commit suicide. However, there are some possible warning signs such as:
Talking About Dying — any mention of dying, disappearing, jumping, shooting oneself, or other types of self harm
Recent Loss — through death, divorce, separation, broken relationship, self-confidence, self-esteem, loss of interest in friends, hobbies, activities previously enjoyed
Change in Personality — sad, withdrawn, irritable, anxious, tired, indecisive, apathetic Change in Behavior — can’t concentrate on school, work, routine tasks
Change in Sleep Patterns — insomnia, often with early waking or oversleeping, nightmares
Change in Eating Habits — loss of appetite and weight, or overeating Fear of losing control – acting erratically, harming self or others
Low self esteem — feeling worthless, shame, overwhelming guilt,
self-hatred, “everyone would be better off without me”No hope for the future — believing things will never get better; that nothing will ever change
-
Nice research!!! great
-
yes you are right parent has to come forward and fill the gap between teenagers and themselves let them feel free to talk and things to do by them not by forcing them. If you want your child go ahead. so first know what your child need fulfill them child goes high and high in success path

Keeping hearth healthy everyone wants but everyone does not know how to keep heart health 24 hours. s a young person, if you start doing small things every day that keep your body healthy, you have a better chance of living a longer, happier and healthier life.
The things that you do to keep your heart healthy will also make you less likely to develop many other types of diseases, like type 2 diabetes and cancer.” These small steps are not expensive or difficult to take, and taking them can go a long way toward helping you feel your best.
I say that to keep hearth healthy do these things:
Avoid smoking and using tobacco products.
Be physically active every day.
Eat a heart-healthy diet.
Keep a healthy weight.
Keep your blood pressure healthy.
Keep your total cholesterol healthy.
Keep your blood sugar healthy.
Heart disease is also known as cardiovascular disease or “CVD.” CVD is a very serious health condition that keeps the heart or blood vessels from working properly. When our heart and blood vessels are working at their best, blood flows easily and is circulated around the body freely.
If there is a clog in our blood vessels or if our heart is not pumping blood properly, this prevents blood from being delivered to many important parts of our body. Not having blood constantly delivered to the many important parts of our body can cause serious illness or even death.
Although some people are born with certain types of CVD, most people develop CVD as a result of poor lifestyle habits, such as eating unhealthy foods, not getting enough exercise or using tobacco.
It is indeed a nice and informative post. We should reduce the use of oil and ghee as it is co-related with heart issues. Eating high fat content and sparing no time for exercise or walk will make the things tougher for our heart.
So, it is a better idea to stop consuming fats.
Since I reached 45 , I started getting healthy. I would always eat fruits and vegetables. I would exercise and would do household chores such as cleaning the bedroom, cooking and others just so my body can be activated.
I also would start dieting whenever my tummy becomes protruding. I would eat just an apple just for dinner.
Most of all, I learn to relax and avoid stress, because I know stress can make us sick .
So far, I don’t have maintenance medicines. Though, sometime my cholesterol would shoot above the normal and I have to do medication for a month and two. After that, it would normalize, so I will try maintaining it. However, sometimes it would go up again, so since I don’t do my exercise on weekdays anymore because I am too tired already from work at night, I take medication for a month or two .
Lately, I know I have been eating some fatty foods again. So, I eat more fruits to wash them and plan to exercise 30 minutes every night once I arrive from work.
And you are right – commitment to exercise is a must. he he he
