Like if someone is sick and taken to the hospital, without money the person might not receive good treatment. But with money, the person will receive healthcare.  I remember the case of a brother who had an urgent medical condition and needed surgery.

I was driving gently on the five-lane highway. I was on a slow lane and several cars were passing me by, on speed. As I was driving, I noticed the police behind me. And after a few minutes of following me, my car was flashed and I waited, packed by the roadside.  Then the police officer came to me, " Ma'am, why are you crossing lanes and not stable on one lane? " I said - " No, I'm not crossing lane. I only stick to my own lane and I'm even driving gently on my lane, and I'm not sleeping or dosing, so I can't be driving anyhow. " " But I noticed you were listening to something in your car. "He replied. I said - " Yes! I listen to messages when I'm going to work and that doesn't affect me in anyway.

As part of our preparations for the new year, I will like us to clear some baggage that might distract us this year. Maybe they are present or not. I want to share some thoughts on how you can forgive when it’s difficult to . This might not be an easy topic to discuss, but I hope it would help in a way. And this might sound familiar if you’ve experienced it. Though, from time to time, we offend people and people offend us. And at times, if we try to control ourselves and decide not to offend people, people might offend us, because we don’t have control over people. And that might probably cause us some pains. We might feel hurt. In such case, we may carry the burden of people’s wrongs in our minds. And if it’s someone that we don’t expect such thing from, we feel more hurt and disappointed. We feel so angry and exasperated, that we might not want to hear anything like forgiveness. It’s the last thing we could think about at such moments. But how do we actually forgive, when it’s diffic

Hello friends, how are you doing this new year? Hope the first week has been good for you. The year is still fresh. And we’re still in the mood of the new year. Though for some of us, work has already started and everything has gone back to normal. (Laughs!)  We must not forget the fact that we must make something new for ourselves this year. We must do something new this year.

I also want to improve myself. I want to work more on learning, reading books, and working more on my projects and some of my financial commitments.  I also want to reduce spending time on unnecessary things
