a story to live by

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see
the world, I will marry you.'

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.

He asked her,'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind.. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.

Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.'

This is how the human brain often works when our status changes. Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situations.

Life Is a Gift

Today before you say an unkind word,
Think of someone who can't speak..

Before you complain about the taste of your food,
Think of someone who has nothing to eat.

Before you complain about your husband or wife,
Think of someone who's crying out to GOD for a companion.

Today before you complain about life,
Think of someone who died too early on this earth.

Before you complain about your children,
Think of someone who desires children but they're barren.

Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or sweep,
Think of the people who are living in the streets.

Before whining about the distance you drive,
Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.

And when you are tired and complain about your job,
Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another,
Remember that not one of us is without sin.

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down,
Put a smile on your face and think: you're alive and still around.

According to  Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the


Professionals they tested got all questions wrong, but many preschoolers got several correct answers.  Anderson Consulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four-year-old.

The Dish on Fish

Salmon, swordfish, tuna and shark...Which types of fish are safe to eat and how much is safe to consume?

The US Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency have issued consumer advisories on the risks of methyl mercury in fish. Pregnant women, women who might become pregnant and nursing mothers should follow these guidelines. Young children should follow the same guidelines except their serving sizes should be smaller.

• Do not eat shark, swordfish, king mackerel or tilefish. They contain high levels of mercury.
• Mercury levels vary in other fish. It is safe to eat up to 12 ounces (two or three meals) of other purchased fish and shellfish a week.
• You may eat up to six ounces of albacore tuna (one average meal) per week.
• Check local advisories about the safety of fish caught in local rivers and streams. If no advice is available, consume no more than six ounces per week and don’t eat any other fish during the week.

Fish is a healthy addition to anybody’s eating plan. Choose canned light tuna instead of tuna steaks or albacore tuna because it generally has less mercury.
