Reflection

The only Zen you find on the tops of mountain is the Zen you bring up there.

Move On With Life

I have to be diligent as an ox again in sourcing for means for my childrenand myself to survive 2009.

I know that the God will helps me in the mysterious ways. If i die in the process, so be it, provided that the ongoing evil will be duly unmarked and justice to come to the filipino people.

And for now I put the past year behind me and more on with my life.

Finding Oppurtunities in Crisis

Good News - Times are tough. With more overseas Filipino workers heading home today after losing their jobs in the midst of a global recession, the competition for the limited jobs available here has become even more ruthless.

To cope with the rising unemployment problem, government has turn to livelihood training and retaining as exports markets shrink, business process outsourcing clients drift away and multinational companies decamp for cheaper shores.

But think of it going into business as an entrepreneurs and being one's own boss has been touted as a solution, but be careful this is not an easy task.

More on Making Judgements

One important listening skill is listening for facts and opinions. Sometimes, we may consider some facts we hear as opinions. Some opinions we hear may sound interestingly like facts. How can we tell which is one?

I guess A fact is a statement that can verified or proven true by objective means. We use records, experimentation, or observation to verify the statement.

And Opinion is a statement that cannot be verified by objective means. It can express a person's feelings about an idea or a situation. It can also express a judgement or a prediction based on facts. However, an opinion is valid only if facts are stated to support it.

Separation

People change in many ways. Husband and wife, too, are people and because people change, their needs and feelings for each other may also change. Once this happens, it will be hard for them to live together. In our society, separation is still not an acceptable solution but it is something children, as well as parents, have to deal with.

This is the time when a parent left alone to take of the children needs the support of the rest of the family members. This may mean more work for the children and adjustment in financial matters. Initially, the parent may feel sad and lonely and greatly need the love and understanding of the children.
