Be a blood brother |
|
Pay it forward with a blood donation
|
|
PERHAPS you’ve received one too—a text or
e-mail message about someone urgently needing blood: somebody’s
daughter with dengue, a classmate from college who just gave birth
or a friend of a friend who’s bleeding too much from heart
surgery. Or perhaps you’re the one sending or forwarding the
message. The message is most often the same: the hospital is
requesting that the blood consumed by the patient in their care be
replenished, regardless of blood type.
If you plan to do some good, stop partying
immediately. And don’t be shocked if complete strangers ask
questions about your sex life or any drug habits. If you’re the
one sending the message, send it as early as you can before people
go out to drink, smoke and party all night long.

Fitness through
martial arts
|
|
IF you cannot sustain your interest on a particular fitness program,
it is bound to fail. An expensive exercise machine gathering cobwebs
in a corner, a pair of running shoes that have yet to hit the
pavement are just a few examples of an aborted exercise regimen.

What’s your control
drama?
|
|
I REVISITED a book recently—James Redfield’s Celestine
Prophecies. Though criticized from various sides, it became popular
because it allegedly revealed the state and direction of human
beings for what was then the next millennium. Now that we are in the
midst of that “next millennium,” it’s useful to review its
insights.

Maintenance
|
|
IF you want to have and maintain a beautiful and meaningful
relationship/marriage, you will have to exert a lot of effort.
Falling in love is so easy that you don’t even have to try. It
just happens. Keeping that love alive and vibrant over the years is
something else.
