LOL. It’s funny. People all around the world have the same problem. Internet addiction. We have to remind ourselves to do the same things that we used to do when there was no Internet. 🙂 😀 Read and/or listen to music and/or watch a movie. My husband has quote a CD and video collection.

Yes, that is kind of weird and funny, isn’t it? I am happy when the Internet is down sometimes if I am not too busy with my work, so I can get more time to do my other stuff. Why not I just go and do them, whether or not the Internet connection is there? I have the choice, I should be able to choose what I want to do! But, I always choose to stay with my computer and or juggle among all these things everyday.
That is why when I read the question “Can you live without Internet?”, my answer is always Yes, there was no Internet when I was young though I would like to have Internet connection always. 😛
It is good that your husband has quoted a list of that. I should write down a list of what to do too, though I already got a to do list. Having such list sounds good, and we can just take a time off from our computer. 😀
-
Ooops! TYPO. Meant to say he has “quite a CD and video collection”. It’s what he usually does when there is no Internet. 🙂
-
It is okay. I just thought you mean he has written down a list of CD and video collection. It is always good for us to have activities other than just going online. Actually there are still work with our computer even without the Internet access, but we are just used to go online nowadays, and forgot other usages with our computer. 😀

It looks like a blessing in disguise when there is no internet or no electrical supply. We can focus on other works at home that needs to be done, or can go outside and savor the cool air.
-
Every time our internet got disconnected, like others do, I go on and do household chores. If I’m done with it, I look for something to cook for snack.
There are lots of things we could do whenever internet is not working. As others do, go for a walk, read books, meet with friends, or have a bonding with family members through watching and playing sports like volleyball or basketball.
-
When I don’t have internet, I usually listen to music in my phone. Sometimes I watch downloaded movies in my laptop. I even watched downloaded videos. I create blog topics. I wash the dishes, I take a bath, pamper myself or I will just sleep. Sometimes i go to my sister’s house, visit and take care of my nephew.
For sure if the internet come back I will be very busy so I make the most out of it.
-
i have to say its really godo helpful ideas but alot can be added like go and cook, i like cooking, visit families, the elders i mean, help those who need help even if they strangers and get in touch with you by doing what you like

That is sad though that the tulips time has ended before you arrived in Amsterdan. I suppose the tulips are one of the most sought for sight in AMsterdam.
Tulips are imported also here when Valentine comes. It is so expensive. But for those rich lovers, they don’t mind as long as their sweetheart can also receive even just 3 tulips flowers. I think a bouquet would really cost a lot, that an ordinary and practical person like me would just choose to spend the big money to a very nice dinner, complete with a band.
I have never actually seen a tulip flower. Only on pictures. My daughter always receive 3 tulips on Valentine’s day. During our time, we don’t have tulips yet.

Tulips are now grown in India in the cooler climate of Kashmir. It was a disappointment but the travel agents have to look to so many other things and not many would have been disappointed anyway

It really can dampen one’s spirit if what you dreamed of is not what happened.
The photo that accompany your article is so beautiful and breathtaking!
You are also right that this should not ruin that European Trip you took due to the ineptness of the travel agent who arranged your tour.
I had the chance to ‘visit’ Amsterdam, to change flight in going to England, but only in Schiphol Airport, around July of 1991, and they were selling Tulip bulbs in their souvenir shops there.
Thank you for the very informative topic about tulips.
I also wish that we can grow Tulips in our country, the Philippines.
-
Tulips need cooler climate and now they are grown in India in Kashmir where it snows.

-
Wow, they look beautiful.
-
it really spiritual thing to look at this breathhtaking photo, i like green trees but also flowers and roses are awesome thing to look at, topic is really good and shops here also full of good breathtaking flower, i like to grow this things in backyards but tulip is hard to take care of and wish to do learn it one day though, i like now jasmine its not easy to take care of it but its easier compare it to tulips, and beautiful and has good smell that reach in house too
-
I am glad you liked the photo. Atleast I got to see photos. Tulips do not grow everywhere. But we can be happy growing what grows easily.

It only takes courage and self-esteem for one to start something new, like a business investment, as you stated it in your post.
If one is afraid to start a business, he can seek advice from experts or friends who can suggest what kind of business he can put up. Being positive and knowing the intricacies of business can make one successful.

So true, just forget about that person and you can move on and get away from such grudges. Having so many grudges is like carrying heavy bags that limit your movement. I real life, it is the same. Your happiness, your decisions in life might be affected when you are angry with some people.
I agree! In order for people to have a happy life is let go of anger. When you are familiar with the law of attraction, you will fully understand that what you always think will reflect on what will happen in your life. Bad thoughts will give you bad experience. Happy thoughts will give you happy and great experience. We don’t know when will be our last day, so enjoy each moment and make the most out of it.
