Happy day to all my loving readers and visitors,
Please read this article till the end.
Divorce vs. Murder
A nice, calm and respectable lady went into the pharmacy, walked up to the pharmacist, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "I would like to buy some cyanide."
The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"
The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband."
The pharmacist's eyes got big and he exclaimed, "Lord have mercy! I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband.
That's against the law! I'll lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen.
Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!"
The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.
The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, "Well now, that's different. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."
Below please find a question for you to ponder :-
1. Are you not familiar with in our daily lives?
Cheers and keep on counting our blessings to keep us going.
Please pass this blog to other who intend to pursuing happiness and health.

CUCUMBER IS MORE THAN VEGETABLE
Dear loving readers and visitors,
I am so excited to share the article with you because I am sure that it will be of great assistance to you.
1. Cucumbers contain most of the vitamins you need every day, just one cucumber contains Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Zinc.
2.. Feeling tired in the afternoon, put down the caffeinated soda and pick up a cucumber. Cucumbers are a good source of B Vitamins and Carbohydrates that can provide that quick pick-me-up that can last for hours.
3. Tired of your bathroom mirror fogging up after a shower? Try rubbing a cucumber slice along the mirror, it will eliminate the fog and provide a soothing, spa-like fragrance.
4.. Are grubs and slugs ruining your planting beds? Place a few slices in a small pie tin and your garden will be free of pests all season long. The chemicals in the cucumber react with the aluminum to give off a scent
undetectable to humans but drive garden pests crazy and make them flee the area.
5.. Looking for a fast and easy way to remove cellulite before going out or to the pool? Try rubbing a slice or two of cucumbers along your problem area for a few minutes, the phytochemicals in the cucumber cause the
collagen in your skin to tighten, firming up the outer layer and reducing the visibility of cellulite. Works great on wrinkles too!
6. Want to avoid a hangover or terrible headache? Eat a few cucumber slices before going to bed and wake up refreshed and headache free.. Cucumbers contain enough sugar, B vitamins and electrolytes to replenish essential nutrients the body lost, keeping everything in equilibrium, avoiding both a hangover and headache
7. Looking to fight off that afternoon or evening snacking binge? Cucumbers have been used for centuries and often used by European trappers, traders and explores for quick meals to thwart off starvation.
8. Have an important meeting or job interview and you realize that you don't have enough time to polish your shoes? Rub a freshly cut cucumber over the shoe, its chemicals will provide a quick and durable shine that not only looks great but also repels water.
9. Out of WD 40 and need to fix a squeaky hinge? Take a cucumber slice and rub it along the problematic hinge, and voila, the squeak is gone!
10. Stressed out and don't have time for massage, facial or visit to the spa? Cut up an entire cucumber and place it in a boiling pot of water, the chemicals and nutrients from the cucumber with react with the boiling water and be released in the steam, creating a soothing, relaxing aroma that has been shown the reduce stress in new mothers and college students during final exams.
11. Just finish a business lunch and realize you don't have gum or mints? Take a slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds to eliminate bad breath, the phytochemcials will kill
the bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath.
12. Looking for a 'green' way to clean your faucets, sinks or stainless steel? Take a slice of cucumber and rub it on the surface you want to clean, not only will it remove years of tarnish and bring back the shine, but is won't leave streaks and won't harm you fingers or fingernails while you clean.
13. Using a pen and made a mistake? Take the outside of the cucumber and slowly use it to erase the pen writing, also works great on crayons and markers that the kids have used to decorate the walls
Please share this with everyone you know who is looking for better and safer ways to solve life's everyday problems.. Thank you in advance.

WORKING TOWARDS A MORE FOCUSED LIFE
My dear loving readers,
Life is short. To live more meaningfully, we need to aim high and achieve more for ourselves and society as a whole. The million dollar question raised here is how to achieve this aim.
The answer to the question is definitely not an easy one, but it is not impossible. I believe that most people, if not all, want to achieve that remarkable result for themselves. Below are some of the basic proven guidelines, which I found useful and believe they will benefit you too. Please do feel free to add any other pointers you may have, through the comment column so that everyone may benefit from it.
1. PINPOINT THE PRIMARY GOAL
Here, your goal must be specific, measurable and within certain time frame. Vagueness is the invariable hallmark of the unfocused mind. So, define it precisely and accurately within a specific time frame so as to achieve your goal.
2. CONTINUE TO FAN DESIRE TOWARDS THAT GOAL
You need more than daydreams and wistful wishes. There must be intense, burning desire that drives you to take positive action to work toward your pre-set goals. To have a lasting effect, you need to develop it yourself by constantly, clearly imagining the benefits that achieving the goal will bring.
3. TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION
Knowing is one thing but doing is another. Here, you need to work continuously and take calculated chances, be prepared to make sacrifices and endure setbacks till you achieve your goal. You can't afford to allow the luxury of laziness or delights of frequent distraction to take over your life. In this respect, you are expected to pay what you get. The higher your goal, the higher the price you have to pay.
4. CONSTANTLY EVALUATE AND MONITOR PROGRESS
We need to be aware that taking action is not sufficient. Constant evaluation and monitoring of progress are required. To ensure that we are working toward our goals, we need to obtain feedback and monitor whether we are heading toward our pre-set goals. Otherwise, adjustment is needed so that there will be no deviation from the goals.
5. SEND RIGHT MESSAGE TO YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND
Always remember that all the fears, worries and failure thoughts are constantly channeled into our subconscious mind, and then nothing constructive is going to be sent back. However, a clear, purposeful goal is steadfastly held in the subconscious mind, the subconscious will accept it and begin to supply the conscious mind with plans, ideas, insights, and the energies necessary to achieve that goal. As such, the right message to your subconscious mind is crucial to drive you working towards your goal.
6. NEVER QUIT
Failure is the root of success. So, keep picking up and returning to the fight long after most people would have given up. Be prepared to accept adversity, bounce back and never give up.
7. HAVE FAITH IN IT
We need to realise that the most powerful force in the world is the idea that has taken root in a human mind and heart. Once you have faith in it, nothing can stop you from achieving it.
8. NEVER BUILD A CASE AGAINST YOURSELF
Always be positive and stop cringing. In whatever circumstance, never allow anyone to build a case against yourself if you want to succeed. It is not easy, but the impact is great.
9. NEVER GIVE EXCUSE OR BLAME OTHERS
To become a focused person, get rid of self limiting thoughts. The people who get on in this world are the people who look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, create them. Always be accountable to yourselves and never blame others or give excuses. Major causes of failures on earth are due to no accountability and the desire to blame others.

THE TWO FROGS
Very happy day to everyone of you,
Hope you find this story well.
A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep the pit was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead.
The two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump up out of the pit with all their might. The other frogs kept telling them to stop, that they were as good as dead. Finally, one of the frogs took heed to what the other frogs were saying and gave up. He fell down and died.
The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again, the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die.
He jumped even harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the other frogs said, "Did you not hear us?"
The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were encouraging him the entire time.
This story teaches two lessons :
1. There is power of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone who is down can lift them up and help them make it through the day.
2. A destructive word to someone who is down can be what it takes to kill them.
Be careful of what you say. Speak life to those who cross your path. The power of words...
It is sometimes hard to understand that an encouraging word can go such a long way.
Anyone can speak words that tend to rob another of the spirit to continue in difficult times. Special is the individual who will take the time to encourage another.
Have a lovely day,
James Oh
