How To Have A Positive Attitude Everyday

By Anonymous -
I am in Beijing now with husband for work. It is starting to get warmer in Beijing and I notice that people are more outgoing more smiley and more colourful in their dressing. 

        There is definitely more positive glow on everyone's faces as we move into better weather period. Everyone just seems to have a more positive attitude generally. It must be the better weather and the anticipation of more outdoor activities like picnics and hikes, which have brought on general positivity and beautiful colours. Anticipation of better days gives positive glow. 

        Which got me thinking. How does a person always bear anticipation of better days no matter how sucky life can be at times? 
 

This is a list I have created especially for you: 

1.     Start each day with a positive smile. No matter what happens. If you start each day with a positive attitude, you will anticipate a better day ahead. You will thus work on creating a better day for yourself. 

2.     End each day with a positive smile. No matter what happens. If you end each day with a positive attitude, you will anticipate a better day tomorrow. You will thus psyche yourself up to creating a better day for yourself tomorrow. 

3.     Always try to finish off the most important things you have to do for the day (keep this at a list of 7) and save the remaining ones for the next day. You can never ever finish everything in a day so why stress over it. 

4.     If you really must do more than 7 important things a day, don't try to finish them all in one go. Take a deep breath, go for a walk, have a nice cup of tea. Sooth your nerves before you do a task. 

5.     Make a long-term life plan for your personal development and growth as a human being. Give yourself 5 goals for now. Don't be too hard on yourself for a start. For example, if you want to become a better guitar player, work on it. Don't just talk about it and keep it as a project on the shelf. Practise on your guitar for an hour everyday. You will get better. If you want to do charity work, work on it. Go look for a charity whose mission you share a belief in. And start doing volunteer work one day every other week. 
 
 
       If you smile more, stress less and have a life plan to work towards, I think you are off to a good start in having a positive glow everyday.

Bleeding Again

During updating Patrick's status to a friend of mine today, Patrick called out from the bed. I looked up to his dancing eyes and smiling face. This would usually put me in smiles. Instead, I watched his face more closely than usual. Much earlier this morning, closer to 2am, his vomit was mixed with blood. He was down with flu and cough since late last week. Earlier this week since Monday, the past couple of nights had been trying to us both. He woke up a few times coughing that caused him to vomit out his milk. For my readers who have not been aware, every night his nasogastric tube attached to a machine that pumped in milk throughout the night. I do this upon the doctor's advice to assist him to gain weight. HIs running nose irritated Patrick when its mucus dripped onto his upper lip. His body temperature did not appear to reach 37.5C and beyond. He has been active, as per his normal self except during the night he appeared to be more fussy than usual. He also appeared to

The birth of Patrick changed my marriage life from the two of us to the three of us, a family. We were excited, happy, worried followed by all kind of emotions for our baby son. So many things to learn, to experience. Breastfeeding, constant thoughts on our baby's well being especially when his jaundice appeared to rise during his first month. The lacking of sleep. There were moments I observed his breathing while he slept. We were amazed by every new mannerisms that Patrick displayed. We were so charmed when he first smiled to us. I would observed how gently my husband would treat Patrick and how Patrick would looked up to him, listening to his every word. Mummy supporting and loving baby We were enjoying ourselves as new parents until something happened in the middle of November 2017 that changed our lives forever. "There is something not right with his stools." My sister in law remarked to me while I tiredly changed Patrick's diapers. Menta

Bario Cinnamon - From the Land of a Hundred Handshakes

By: Chong Sheau Ching July 10, 2018 What is it? When you buy Bario cinnamon, you get it in the form of a two and half foot - long stick. They are harvested by a group of farmers from ‘Bario Agro Biodiversity Hub,’ Bario, Kelabit Highlands in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. It is trucked along a grueling logging road for twelve hours from Bario to Miri City, and then by sea freight from Miri Port to Port Klang before being transported to Kuala Lumpur, or from Miri Airport to KLIA and then transported to the city. The cinnamon trees are of the Cassia variety. They grow wild in pristine, lush, primary jungles among the flora and fauna such as those in the Bario Communal Park. The cinnamon bark harvested is thus 100% organic with ABSOLUTELY no chemicals as the trees grow in the thick Bornean jungle. Cinnamon is a traditional medicine used especially to ‘warm’ the stomach.   The Kelabits (main inhabitants in the Kelabit Highlands) also use the cinnamon bark in teas and i
