My precious grandmother is getting up there in years. While she is still fully lucid, and definitely not in anyway incapable, she is getting a little slower and a little more likely to take a spill. We had a very scary situation a few months back when she was pulling weeds in the yard and took a tumble down her hill. She broke her ankle and rolled for a bit before a neighbor spotted her and luckily ran over to help. While she lives close enough that we can take a day trip to see her, she is still a couple hours away, so getting there in good time if there was an emergency would be difficult. We worry about her going up and down the stairs inside, where there would be no one to see her fall. This is where her adt Seattle alarm comes in. One of the new features offered is a two-way voice link with the alarm monitoring company that can call for help immediately if there is an emergency. It helps my mom and I sleep better at night, and it's definitely worth the couple of dollars a month we spend on it.

Street Demonstrations
Street demonstration is not the solution to the problem instead it makes the problem worst. Why people don't understand that they can not change anything if they will make another problem? Look at the people in Wall Street in New York City. They have been there for a month already but did any change happen? nothing at all. Well, it's not shocking to me if I hear anything like that because demonstration always happen in my country. What I don't like with this is that, it won't do anything to solve the problem. They are just giving additional stress to the people around them who are trying their best to make money for a living. These people who are doing this demonstrations are just a disturbance to the community. It will not help anybody to earn money to feed their family and pay their bills. What a waste of time.
I just wish that these people would realize that the time they put in to do the demonstration is precious, they could have use it to find something to benefit their family. What a shame.

A wish comes True
I did post here few months ago about my frustrations of not getting the job I applied for. I know I can do the job and I am qualified than the ones they hired because I have the degree while the one they hired,,,,, well I don't know if she has the degree for that position. It took me several days to get over my frustrations and aggravation but I said to myself, "someday they will be the one to call me even if I don't apply because they will need my service" those are just wishes with the hope that it will come true. From that time on... I forget all about it and I busy myself with other things.
One day, I received a call from them asking me if I am interested for another position opened in their institution. Well, the job opening is not in my line of expertise, so I decline immediately because I don't want to give them false hopes that I can do the job even if I have no experience in that area. I don't care if I have no work, I don't want to experiment doing things that I have no idea of how to do it for the sake of having a job.
After a year, they call me again for another job offer, well, I prayed about it because I love that kind of job. After days of prayer, I got the job. They hired me without any interview or whatsoever. What I can say is that, your wish will come true if God will permit it to happen.
I never send any application to them anymore, I just did once and when they did not call me instead they hired another person, I opted not to send any application anymore. What is aggravating in this situation is that I work with them for 3 years as volunteer, then when there's a job opening instead of hiring me,,,,, because they know me well enough due to my volunteering, they hire someone who never volunteer to work with them, and is new to the area for she come from another place and just new to the area. That's what pissed me off. But anyway, my wish comes true and that is the most wonderful thing that had happened.

Whisper a prayer of thanks
Yes, I am thankful to God for the opportunity of being hired in spite of the job crisis all around us today. Everyday, we keep on hearing about people who lost their jobs. Tough, tough, very tough economic situations we are facing now. But then, I am thankful that at last, I got a job but I waited to have a job for five years. Anyway, everything has a season. Now is my time.
I love the job I am doing now. I worked more that the hours that I suppose to work and all those extra hours I considered them as volunteer work because I am not paid for extra and I don't mind it because I love this kind of work I am doing. When I was working before, I always work for extra mile, without pay and that was in my country. Now that I am here in America, I still do the same. I just consider my extra hours as volunteer work. This is just my way of saying "thank you for the opportunity of having work in this very tough job hunting situation we are in.
Whispering a prayer of thanksgiving is all my heart can say. Thank you Lord for everything.

Gay Marriage approved in New York City
It is now a headlines of the news that gay marriage is approve in New York city. Oh!! I am not sure of how to react to this fact. I read a lot of gays are happy and now they are busy preparing to be married. To me this is a ridiculous thing to happen. I think that the world nor is becoming crazy. How can a man marry somebody with same sex? I'm it is such a crazy thing to think about.
According to record, of all the states in America, 5 states approved to legalize gay marriages. As far as I know, this gay marriages are only common in America. I did not hear of any gay marriages being legalized in other countries specially in the Asian countries. Of course there are lots of gays all over the world but for gays to get married with a guy? I've never heard of it except here in America. Well, it is not good to judge and I am not judging but if we are going to trace since the beginning of creation, God created man and woman to be husband and wife not man for man and woman for woman. Anyway, this goes to show that the world now is becoming so ridiculous that is no longer desirable to live anymore.
Well, what we can do is just to do what is right in the sight of God. Whatever the society is doing which is not morally correct, we will do away with it. Even if there are lots of evil doers in this world, there are still good people who are afraid to do wrong. Let's keep up the moral standard of a Christian. Good luck to everyone.
