Superstition varies country to country.I think even a superior country like America people also have superstition. Superstition dwells to man because others had met something bad as coincidence to the belief, that is why it may not fade as years go by.In the country of my birth, there are so many superstitious beliefs that mostly guide people to do right acts, but in reverse to the real world for they do not follow like excuse me. They are afraid of the none existent rather than to those humans alive and existing.If a person says excuse me to a fictitious existence of a bad spirit why can’t others say excuse me to the living humans? Maybe they are not afraid, they are only afraid to those having imaginative powers.

As time goes on, new generations do not believe or practice those superstitious beliefs. But in some areas, there are still a lot of it. Sometimes I observe it sometimes not. It is interesting to know they have the same one in New Zealand!

My 4 sister and I grew up not believing any of the superstitious beliefs. My father being a lawyer then would always refute any belief that we would say is being believed by old people.

My mother would believe some but as always would be told by my father that they have no scientific basis.

So far, we all grew up well, even if we didn’t believe any of the superstitious beliefs.

@Dina, that is always how life goes when our father is a lawyer. My father was a retired military official and was always assigned in remote and weird places even entered a cave to rest with his men and nothing had been observed. Superstition is just a matter of thinking because a person believes in it and afraid of it though in reality there is no negative effect in their lives. Somehow we cannot also believe those believers for they lack education and orientation and strong beliefs of God, Those who are close to God as being religious are not easily be affected with their surrounding for God is their instrument against all evils and odd .

Superstition continues to exists as long as there are believers and culture correlates with it. Well anyway, this is better than committing a crime. This kind brings people in unison and bond.

Yes, you should go on with what pleases you, especially on being a Mommy advocate. Good luck!

There’s a need to proceed whether in a different location or just being here in Miami, Florida. I’m sure the boys wouldn’t be thrilled about Tanikka Paulk moving to another location but Mommy certainly has to live.

I hope children too be respectful to their parents. This time children do not see how their parents work hard for them to have something to eat and pay for the bills plus education this time is so high like a crazy thing that cannot e avoided.Children ought to love their parents for no matter what their love for their children is pure and no single day that they do not think about you and about how you will become successful.You have to pay their kind gestures and love to you.

Oh my, grade 6 and he is already taking drugs? Who introduced it to him by the way? The parents didn’t even notice that he was into it?

Then it means indeed that they don’t have time to bond with him so that’s why they never even noticed it.

Sad, that the parents keep working so they can give their child a bright future, yet their son has become an addict. And didn’t they notice any furniture or things at home to have been losing and think that it could already be their son selling them?

Sometimes, the parents only thinks of making themselves rich because they thought that giving their children luxuries is already enough to make them happy. No, it’s not that way.

We have to give them our time and attention. It’s what makes their hearts swell with happiness and turn to drugs to find momentarily happiness.

@Dina, that was so sad by the way for having my nephew a drug addict at a young age. His parents did not notice it but is it that i was able to sense the way their son looks at people seems no bearing, no meaning so dull. We wonder at home why that teacher was able to able to teach for many years in an Ateneo in Cagayan de Oro city. That was a very devastating day learning our nephew was jailed because of an offense that cannot be done bu=y hi should he be in a normal thinking. drugs truly destroys future, he cannot be gird for fear his pusher may just turn in ad tempt him again, plus this time under our new president he is not safe if seen using this bad drug. he will surely be put behind bars.

It is so sad to hear about such incidents when young people were hooked into drugs due to circumstances that boil down to parents who lack time for their children. They should know who their children’s friends are; they should monitor him even from afar or not directly meddling in their activities.

Shaming them in front of classmates is a big no for parents who aimed to discipline them. They should know how to guide their children in a manner that is acceptable and the most effective one.

Based on medicinal value, coconut water can improve the immune system, helps in digesting foods, and improve the overall health of the body. You could just replace drinking water with coconut water and still maintain a healthy body.

I love the taste of Coconuts, I haven’t had one in a long time as they are so expensive here. It is truly amazing how many uses that coconuts have whether it’s for nourishment, beauty or health.

That is true , and thank you so much for adding some important facts of coconut tree. It is indeed a tree of life. There are countries no coconuts planted. Maybe their climate disallow them to grow coconuts.Like in New Zealand, when I visited that country, I was looking for cocos none were found.

@Tracy, that is true this simple creature is so amazing in its features of heath benefits.Coconuts are sold here at a cheap price. Why is it expensive there because they are exported to your country form Asian countries. I do not know if there are coco its in China for when I taught in China I have not seen a single coconut there in Chang Chun city, North China.

I love coconuts! It is really a very versatile and useful tree. Thanks, I only knew now that it’s roots can be used to alleviate rheumatism pains. I will recommend it to people who have aching legs due to arthritis or rheumatism.

I really love coconut…it also help in sperm production

I use coconut oil on my skin and my hair. it leaves my skin soft shiny and smooth and keeps my hair moisturized for a few days. I heard you also use it on ur teeth.

Then you should tell you niece to tell her hubby to buy these medicines.

My father had psoriasis just when he was about to retire. When patches of scaly and dry skin begin to manifest , he isolated himself in our basement. When I try to make “mano” he told me not to.

Until, he had his consultation with a skin doctor, did we came to know that it was psoriasis and it’s not contagious. He recovered after about more than 2 years but there are brown patches on his legs that is a reminder of his bout with psoriasis.

@Dina, What did he apply or what medicine? Please share it to make my friend for my nice and her hubby and baby I introduced in ML arrive in July 4 during my birthday. I will be happy to know that medicine. yes, i will tell my nephew her hubby to find this cream in UK. How is your fad now, so pitiful he isolated himself thinking his disease was contagious. thankful those patches did not appear back by its own tissues.

@Dina, I hope your father no longer feels the insecurity this time, by the way condolence to you.May your cousin rest in peace. That is life,maybe you are now in other place to consle the family of your siblings.That is life and each one of you should move on,

About the psoriasis of your dad, at least the contention of many doctors that psoriasis has no remedy that there is no cure of it, Please also share us here what was that medicine your father used to fully heal his psoriasis. Thanks friend.

You are absolutely right when you say love does not know gender because they’re those who choose to love the same gender, and they’re those who choose to go for the opposite sex. In real essence love has no boundaries. Love is a feeling that each one of us has or experiences, and different people react in different ways when they fall in love. First there is the perception of “love” in love. People may feel like they are truly in love, when in actual sense what they really feel is lust. This normally happens especially with young people say people around teenage years till around 23 years of age. Most of these youth’s not all of them per say, the ink they have fallen in love when all there is, is infatuation. They will always feel like they want to be with that person all the time, when something goes wrong in the relationship they feel like they cannot move on, that in short is infatuation. This is where you will find a youth lacking sleep because of another person.why wouldn’t you sleep 8f I may ask? Am just thinking aloud, if someone truly loved me then their love should make me sleep like a little baby because of the joy inside of me not the other way round. These are just my. thoughts. I usually tell my nieces when you get to the age of 25 years and onwards, and a guy confesses his love to you even one or two years down the line, or you always feel like you have butterflies in your stomach when you see them, then at that point you can say you are in love. Because it’s mature love that shows itself in the way things are done, or the one someone talks and behaves. This other love i guess is all just puppy love to get something from you and take off.

@Anitah Gimase, Hi friend? I appreciate so much your share of this blog about love. That is true all of us fall but not all succeeded and triumphed in love,like me I been in love so many times and so many times fall because of bf’s dishonesty. Seldom we can find true love and true human this time. Many are exploited by media , technology and the like.Love is a very nice feeling ,It inspires us and moves the highest mountain.

All normal persons feel this way when love strikes. The feeling is so wonderful and you are always inspired,lol. Love is truly mysterious for it could change the mindset of an individual, change the attitude and change everything for the sake of love’s happiness.Life is truly awesome when there is love. When I was in high school, I had a crush and I cannot avoid myself looking at hime if I have time hehehe.

Love is the most abused word in language. But it is also the most powerful. Love can make us do good things and it can make us do bad things. We know we are loving if we do good. If not we are only using or being used. When we truly love someone we do not treat them like objects.
