"I Am Thankful For....." (from "As A Man Thinketh")

MY FRIDAY STORY I AM THANKFUL FOR ... Author Unknown The partner who hogs the covers every night, because he Is not out with someone else. The child who is not cleaning his room, but Is watching TV, because that means he Is at home and not on the streets. For the taxes that I pay, because it means that I am employed. For the mess to clean after a party, because it means that I have been surrounded by friends. For the clothes that fit a little too snug, because it means I have enough to eat. For my shadow that watches me work, because it means I am in the sunshine. For a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and gutters that need fixing, because it means I have a home. For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot, because It means I am capable of walking and that I have been blessed with transportation.

Addendum to That "Finding A Life Partner" Posting!

Praise God, today, I had the luxury of time that allowed me to discover the true author of that forwarded email...just as I suspected, someone's trying to make cool, stupid fools out of everyone of us.....curious to know more about the real source? then visit the blogs of "Fling93" (visit his site?) where he writes that the author is NOT Eduardo Calasanz. And that it's from the book "Letters to My Son: A Father's Wisdom on Manhood, Life, and Love" by Kent Nerburn (visit his site?) , and co-written with Richard Carlson (and the "article" is in Chapter 26). Note: I hope I did better this time! :D But what the heck, go find your life partners, for all you unhappy singles out there!

Hope everyone who finds time to read this forwarded message, will also find in his / her heart the courage to actually do the hard work needed to come up with a good choice for a life partner! Note: Of course, I would not check the veracity of the facts behind the story, i.e. if this is just one of the mild concoctions of one frustrated writer (or more) out in the world wide web. But please feel free to share, anyway!!! If not, do as you please. Happy searching for a life partner! Vaya con Dios!! > For those who have loved and lost, and lost all over again and for those who are still looking…..for those who found it …. Good for you! =) > > > > PARTNERS AND MARRIAGE > > Eduardo Calasanz was a student at the Ateneo de Manila University, > Philippines where he had Father Ferriols as a professor. > Father Ferriols, at that time, was the Philosophy department head. > Currently he still teaches Philosophy ...

Eight Dream Symbols That Point to Stress - Page 3

Link PLEASE READ LINK Oh, Lord, I just love having dreams in my sleep, or else, I am surely have not been able to sleep well at all. I've known from my Psychology undergraduate studies, that when one is dreaming, one is having "rapid eye movement" (REM) or the state wherein dreams happen. Of course, I'd love to have the most pleasant dreams! I recall having dreamt of seeing myself beheaded, with me seeing actually where my head drops and rolls....the details are just so real...such that I'd still remember this dream even up to now when I've had this dream when I was still in elementary school. And I've had regular dreams of just flying, flying so freely, and letting myself falling from the very top of tall buildings, and getting myself dropping for a few floors, and eventually, I'd be getting the hang of it, and I'd get my gears moving, and I'd be swooping up, up and away.....flying, flying...flying like a giant wild bird!!! That sounds...

Believe while others.......

By William Arthur Ward /"target="_blank"> (more about him?) Believe while others are doubting. Plan while others are playing. Study while others are sleeping. Decide while others are delaying. Prepare while others are daydreaming. Begin while others are procrastinating. Work while others are wishing. Save while others are wasting. Listen while others are talking. Smile while others are frowning. Commend while others are criticizing. Persist while others are quitting. Sent to you as a courtesy of...

NYC Halloween Parade 2008

Very grateful to have been able to work again on this video that made use of the salvaged pictures I took during 2008 NYC Halloween Parade (visit the website of this 35-year old tradition?) . I chose from my friend, Yankeeboy's suggestions on which music to add to make the pictures, now turned into video, more livelier and interesting. He also told me that Screamin' Jay Hawkins would sing I PUT A SPELL ON YOU as he goes out of a coffin! This music certainly made the work more palatable LOL....and more fun to pour my time on.
