For most of my adult life I believed that I just wasn’t meant to be a happy person. While I was successful in my career as a grant writer and columnist and worked hard to be a good mom to my three kids‚ I often had to drag myself out of bed and then force myself to do basic daily tasks like making dinner or getting the children ready for bed. I once read a poll that said 52 percent of people describe themselves as extremely happy‚ and my reaction was to sit back and think‚ Really? My low point

My most memorable dining experience surprisingly happened on a regular midweek evening. I was packed and ready for my month trip‚ my flight was scheduled early in the morning and I knew I had some time on my hands. I wanted to spend it with my best friend before I left‚ and with that great idea in mind I headed to her place of work‚ Emeril’s Restaurant.

Many people and experiences have shaped the person that I am today. Everyone that I meet thinks that I am quiet‚ but once they get to know me‚ they see how funny and crazy I am. I am generally a positive person to be around as I try to have fun and make my friends and family laugh. Everyone I have met has taught me something‚ whether I hated it or loved it. My grandma taught me how to bake chocolate chip muffins and my friends have taught me how to come out of my shell and talk with more people. My

For many people the most meaningful experience of their lives is well defined‚ clear and concise. One given occurrence‚ at a given time and in a clear setting can change the meaning of life for a person. One late night I sat down in a quiet room in my house to think about my personal experiences‚ the only sound in the house came from an old mantel clock‚ which I like to keep wound and on time. I very much enjoy listening to the rhythmic tic-tock‚ and I regard it as a remainder of our time here on

especially when you have another part-time job at the same time. But‚ for sure‚ the job as a promoter has helped me a lot in so many ways that I did not see it as a challenge‚ but a footstep to become a more polished person in the workplace. I was employed by an event management company called Event Elite Production and Promotion Limited from March 2014 onwards. From the day I was hired‚ I was allocated to work for Nespresso‚ one of its clients‚ as a part-time promoter. This is how my regular duty

In the play The Diary of Anne Frank Anne wrote a dairy about her life and didn’t hold back on the truth. Also Anne told her dad that she hates her mom because they don’t understand each other. Thirdly‚ Anne told peter

Philippines‚ on August 7th 2010. This photograph was taken on a Saturday‚ so for sure the little girl does not have schooling on that day‚ she just found this this bag from the trash and decide to play with it. “Whoever shut his ears at the cry of the poor‚ they also shall cry themselves‚ but not be heard” (proverbs 21:13) in the Bible.

The question posed to me is‚ “Does technology change history‚ or is it people that do this?” If one were to take a walk back into history‚ they would notice that the potential for technology has always been there‚ but its human interaction with that potential that made it possible for that single‚ lone‚ idea to come to fruition. Prime examples would be; Einstein with the theory of relativity‚ even further back is Noah and the ark‚ Marie Curie and the theory of radioactivity‚ and the list goes on
