The Gift of Connection

"Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links. If you click a link and make a purchase, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for your support“


          As human beings, it is innate for us to build relationships among us so as to feel as well as share the warmth of how it is to be alive. Thus we are so lucky to have been surrounded with significant people. And we are always ready to reach out to every one of them. 

          Life is sometimes so tough and rough and it is at this time that we are in dire need of somebody to give us comfort and consolation.  With this support, we allow ourselves to face squarely every trial that come our way. No two people are exactly alike henceforth we are also unique in facing life's challenges. Some tend to be strong while others can be weak in their reaction to dark episodes of life.

          Being connected with others requires constant awareness of our dynamics. With this awareness, it becomes easy for us to extend our helping hand to someone who is having his share of difficult time in life. Thus we remember always that knowing our connectedness with others makes this life journey a joyful, mysterious and lighter one. 

          How about you, are you willing to build further your connections in life?

Benefits of Making a Wine

           As I am enjoying this wonderful weekend day of Sunday, I am also inspired to write something about the significance of my blog's title which is Making a Wine thus I came up with this post. When we participate in making wine, it means that we are in full control of all its ingredients same thing with our life, it is always a plus factor for us if we are constantly in control of all things related to it such as its goals, aspirations, dreams and others. 

          In the actual wine making, one of its positive attributes is that it can give us a very meaningful learning experience. It allows us to identify its complex process that involves understanding the interplay of heaps of factors such as grape selection, fermentation, aging, and bottling. Engaging in winemaking can usher us to valuable insights into agricultural practices, microbiology, chemistry and more. Similar to this, in life also we are ushered into a deep understanding of the interwoven mystery among one to the others. When we allow ourselves to undergo the deep process of self understanding, it is then that we will start to savour the beauty of intermingling with other people's lives.

          Another positive contribution of us getting involve in making wine is its health benefits. As it is said, moderate consumption of red wine is associated with various health benefits and thanks especially to compounds like resveratrol anbd antioxidants found in grape skins. While these benefits are more closely linked to consumption rather than production, knowing exactly what goes into our wine can enhance our apporeciation of its potential health benefits.  Similar to this are those benefits to our health when we come up with positive relationships with ourselves and with others. As commomnly said, no man is an island therefore we are all expected to engage with others regardless of who we are. The challenge then that is left for us is how could we openly extend ourselves to others without overlapping the boundaries between ourselves and them.

Thanks God for This New Day

     I woke up late today since it is a weekend. So happy to have awaken again on another day- another opportunity for us all to enjoy life's magnanimous beauty. Right away, I greeted a sweet good morning my two precious gifts in life- my wife and our son. Their presence in my life adds enormous amount of positive flavour to it. 

    Moreover, I always look up to the coming of a new day since this is an opportunity to strengthen my relationship within the three of us. It is always my desire for both of them to grow and to live life to its fullest- a life that is full of happiness and hope. In this world, heaps of trials and challenges come our way every single day. At times, we are bombarded by heaps of questions about life's greatness. Building blocks to our various relationships suddenly appear and it needs us to refocus everything so as to get hold of the present reality of our life.                                                                                  


     Thus personally I would resort to prayer and positive thoughts so as to be successful in everything that I endeavour everyday. Time is of the essence for me and you thus, we should learn how to prioritise our time making it sure that those special people in our life are the initial recipient of it. Let us not be hindered by whatever activity or commitment outside of the family, rather let us constantly make it a priority above everything first. 

                                       Happy Weekend everyone.

The Positive Thing in Sharing

     We are created unique from one another and it is in this context that we are always invited to share our giftedness with others. In connection to this, the very first step that we need to do is to acknowledge our own positive points and also to embrace the negative ones.

     At times, accepting ourselves especially the negative part is not easy for we always want to be the best and to be the top in everything. Weaknesses become a source of vulnerability for us and our natural tendency is to deny them. This denial will lead into self-disillusionment. 

Image by Alexas_Fotos from Pixabay 

     Moreover the issue sometimes comes out as a consequence when we start to compare ourselves with others and we start to become envious of other people's giftedness. We focus on what other people possesses while we fail to acknowledge our own talents, skills, giftedness and other positive traits. 

     As a result, it will become difficult for us to share ourselves for we don't exactly know what is it that we can contribute to others. Thus, I believe the first step towards this invitation of sharing ourselves is our total acceptance of who we are. Embracing the whole of us, both good and bad, leads the way for us towards self generosity.

A Reflection: How Essential The Vaccine in Today's Pandemic

    Covid- 19- this is the dreaded pandemic that is causing so much negatives issues, troubles, stresses, conflicts etc in our precious world today. Covid- 19- the name derived itself with the year it started in 2019  and sadly, it is still very much ongoing nowadays. The world has so much changed since it commenced. Now the so called new normal is when you see people wearing face mask and face shield or wearing all the necessary PPEs (personal protective equipment especially) while walking on the streets, or while at work or inside the malls.

                                                 

                                                                                                  image credit: Photo by Yaroslav Shuraev from Pexels

    Further the pandemic has caused so much chaos on this already chaotic world. Lucky for those few countries which are not severely affected by it yet the vast majority is. Harsh effects are experienced by so many such as lives and livelihood are gone. Poorer countries suffer the most but even the so called rich and first world nations, they are also suffering the same fate as that of others. The virus is so consistent and lethal that it penetrates both rich and poor alike. 

    Along the way, one positive thing that came out is the development of the vaccine to fight against this virus. Pharmaceutical giants like Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson etc raced to develop the vaccine. Consequently, the world witnessed the emergence of the various types of drug to combat Covid - 19 such as mRNA (Pfizer), viral sector (Aztrazeneca), mRNA (Moderna) and others. Somehow the decision to have or not the vaccine is still left on each individual ( though in other countries or working places, they are making it compulsory for their members to have the jab). 

                                                                  

         imagecredit: Photo by Andreea Ch from Pexels

    With this scenario,  it now boils down to what the virus can do to humankind rather than just focusing on what the vaccine can do to the person. According to reports, after effects of the vaccine may differ from one person to the other and this may take the form of a flu, a headache, body pain etc going to the serious ones like blood clotting. 

    Yet again, a realisation should boil down on each individual that presently, what counts most is his wellbeing as well as that of others. Hopefully more people will decide to have the vaccine so that even if Covid - 19 will continue to exist yet if vaccinated, one then is protected against it.



NB: Special thanks to Vince for suggesting this topic for my reflection.

A Prayer of Thanksgiving

         As we end this year 2019, let us express our thanksgiving to God for all the blessings that we have received this year. In spite of all the challenges that come along the way, we could still say that life indeed is such a wonderful gift for us.

         Let us be grateful for the gift of life that we cherish....for with it we are also able to share with others the real meaning of unconditional love.
imagecredit:
That with our life, we continue to fulfil our responsibilities as models of good deeds to our children and to others;

         Let us be grateful to our good health and we pray for those who are suffering from any form of illness. With our good health, we are able to perform our responsibilities towards our workplace and we are able to mingle with others and promote camaraderie among ourselves; 

         Let us also be grateful for the gift of talents, skills, capabilities etc that we have acquired and developed in our life for with them, we are able to become positive members of our society and be examples of good deeds to others.

Being Consistent

"Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links. If you click a link and make a purchase, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for your support“




Being consistent in all that we do is very much essential. Consistency also means that when we say something, this must also be shown in our actions. This counts a lot most notably in our everyday dealings with our children. We may not be aware about it but they are very keen on the consistency between our words and actions. 

They could be very vulnerable but somehow in their young minds, the issue on our consistency plays a very specific role in connection to their own development.

                          Photo by Riccardo Chiarini on Unsplash
We therefore become their concrete visual aids and on our part, it is somehow crucial that what is yes or no now must be maintained as is in the coming days.

If we fail to sustain that one, they will create a doubt on their minds and therefore they will start to question whether such thing is really yes or no, good or bad. We cannot teach them one thing today and tomorrow, this would become another thing. Citing for example the issue of using their gadgets like tablets or cell phones during the week. If we disallow them to use and play with them during the whole weekdays, we should maintain this as a rule and not to be disregarded every other day or week.

Let us remember always that our kids look up to us as their models for good deeds and we should live up to such expectation not merely due to our desire to teach them but because primarily we love them and we want them to grow more on a positive way.

Peep and the Big Wide World

          My 5 year old kid is a huge fan of Peep and the Big Wide World. He doesn't get tired watching the various episodes on You Tube. And as I try to observe him watching this show, I am also delighted for he learns several things from this animation. Just to give us a little background of the show, I researched on this one and found out the following:

         "Peep and the Big Wide World is an animated children's television series created by Canadian Animator Kaj Pindal and based on the 1988 short film Peep and the Big Wide World produced by the National Film Board of Canada,
imagecredit
which itself is based on the 1962 short film The Peep Show, also produced by the National Film Board of Canada.

          Carriage on the Discovery children's network ended on December 10, 2010 with the discontinuation of Ready Set Learn and the Discovery Kids with the Hub. "- Source- Wikipedia- the free Encyclopedia

         As my son watches the film, he is always amused by the three main characters like Peep, Chirp and Quack. The bond of their friendship is so strong that somehow, it allows them to hurdle all those challenges of this friendship. And in the midst of all their trials, their friendship emerges as a strong foundation to move forward. 

5 Year Plan 90% Duscount VPN           Thus, when you have a 5 year old kid or in any near age to that, do recommend this show for it will also allow your kid to be entertained and to be informed by the adventures of the main characters.

Courage Through Faith

          Struggles in life come in so many innumerable forms. No one among us could simply claim that they are strong but somehow, for  those who are able to survive life's crosses would claim that they are able to do so due to their firm hold in themselves and in their constant faith in their God.  

          Everyday in our life, we experience various life situations- some may be considered as trivial ones yet others become enormously significant that if we only stop from our busy routines as well as reflect on them, we will come into a realisation that they emerge as our pathway to be strong in this battlefield of life. 
imagecredit: Flordeliza Bernardino Eyles

        Constantly dealing with the everyday challenges of life, we feel that at times, we can't go on anymore....that it is too much for us to go on with the fight. Life at times could be very challenging and tricky yet it is on this time of emptiness and desolation that we find consolation in the embrace of the Most Powerful Being in life. 

        Thus comes our conviction and faith in our God. And no matter what name we attribute to Him but in His eyes, we are just the same. We are all special in His love and with this assurance, may we become more motivated to embrace life's not so favourable chapters.

Staying Positive in LIFE

          On this post, allow me to share with you a few points on staying positive in life. This is very crucial since nowadays, it is a reality that so many among our brothers and sisters experience some sort of depression due to reasons which may for some are unavoidable. Too much thinking and worries about life's problems could resort for some to depression and at certain extreme point, there were those who ended their lives for failure to cope with the situation. 

However, if we just allow ourselves to appreciate the gift of life that we borrow from Somebody, then most possibly we would also learn to get up every time that we fall down due to pressures, problems, confusions and others. Here then are a few tips on being positive:




 1. " Understand the benefits of being a positive thinker;
2. Take responsibility of your attitude;
3. Make a plan to stop being a negative thinker;
4. Try music, read books about inspirational life stories and avoid being with people who are negative thinkers."





                                                               - Source: http://www.wikihow.com/Think-Positively

          Thus by religiously following these tips, we will be able to get rid of all negativities in our life. Always bear in mind that there is no one who can help us in times of troubles but    we, ourselves. By being positive, we can keep ourselves away from all those negative vibes. 

         Furthermore, never allow any pessimistic energy to hinder us to stay vibrant in life. Surround ourselves with well spirited people and let us share among us the fruits of a positive life. Remember constantly:  ..... there is no one to blame for whatever negative experience we have in life, and let us learn to move on as well as keep our heads up to face each single day.

Ways To Welcome The New Year

          2017- this new year promises lots of things to all of us. The impact of its effect on us may vary on our individual capacity to do it. And welcoming it may also take different forms like the following:

1. Welcoming With a Heavy Heart- this is true for those who are unable to leave behind those grudges and hatred in their hearts. Even though year 2016 has passed yet they could not focus on the new year however, they tend to value the more what was painful on last year. Thus, the new year may seem to have no impact anything at all to them;


imagecredit:

2. Welcoming with Excitement- there are those who are so filled with excitement to welcome the new year that they eagerly wake up each day to see all its surprise. So few things are ordinary for them. These include the artists, the dreamers, the adventurous and the like;

3. Welcoming with A Grateful Heart- this belongs to those who are so grateful for everything in their life. For this people, nothing is ordinary for them instead everything is so special that gratefulness must also be done in return;

4. Welcoming with All Smiles- this group is for those who are always positive in their life that no matter how many days were painful as of last year but this year promises something wonderful for them. They always have smiles in their faces that no problem of whatever degree could destroy or damage their day. 


          For sure, there are other forms of welcoming the new year out there but considering this short list for sure will already allow you to exactly identify yourself in one or two of them. God luck everyone for this new year 2017.

Life's Surprises and Man's Awareness

            As we embrace each single day, we are so lucky to constantly receive surprises each day. May it be a simple greetings from a long lost friend or a simple gift from a relative, or it could be a simple gesture of kindness from a total stranger...yet the element of surprise is always present. BUT let us always remember that it could only become as such if we also allow ourselves to be conscious of the element of being a surprise. 


                                                       imagecredit:
                                    
          Sometimes, we think that LIFE is already so predictable. that we already think of the things that will happen before us...in the process we lose the element of surprise to all those unfolding of reality around us. Remember always that life becomes an interesting journey when there is that element of surprise that goes to it. 

         Thus, even though you can already detect what comes next in an activity or in an event but still, learn to put a suspense to it so that life will continue to be full of surprises each day.

Being Grateful in Life

          As we are nearing to the end of January, allow ourselves a space and then let us try to recall all our activities for this month. Even when we started this month, we already received wonderful things day in and day out. In fact, all the bountiful blessings that we treasured are beyond any price for they are so worthwhile and precious. And as we continue with our journey, they will also become a special part of our book of life that no matter what will happen in the near future, we always have something to look back and say to ourselves, " How lucky we are to have received such blessings....." 

          Consequently, it is also but fitting for all of us to be thankful for everything that we have enjoyed this month. In those busy events in our life, it is beneficial if we can find time to look back all those past events and also have time to be grateful to those people who have, in one way or the other, journeyed with us tirelessly during the month.


imagecredit: https://pixabay.com/en/green-park-season-nature-outdoor-1072828/

          As they said, life is a give and take process thus telling us that we need each other and that no one among us can live alone. I pity those who are so boastful among themselves and allow pride to ruin their lives and their relationships with others. Time will come that they will realise that not all in life is about money and fame. These things are important but they are not the ideal ones which could give us real happiness. 

         Hence, as we end this month, let us spend some time to thank those people who have shared their lives with us.

Outcome of Parents' Separation

          Nowadays it is undeniable that parents of certain families separate due to several factors. Even when I was still handling retreats and recollections both to high school and college students, I have heard of sad stories of my students that at times, I was in the middle of my sharing then suddenly, a student cried heavily for she remembered the separation of her parents and its painful effects on her and her siblings.


imagecredit: Erwin Doriman-Australia

          I'm not in the position to judge them especially the parents but somehow, I pity those innocent children who become the ones severely and harshly affected by the event. Of course, no one can deny that in any marriage or relationship of similar attributes, challenges and trials are present but the matter should be brought to harmony for the sake of the children. 

          To this effect, the children become lost and what is worse is when they will also grow without learning how to love genuinely. At times, they grow as problematic kids then later on as adults but who can blame them if on this ordeal, they have nobody to guide and accompany them. Most of the time, parents' separation result to negative effects on the children and everyone should try to prevent this sad reality to happen for the sake, wellbeing and future of the children.

Listening to Music

          One of my favourite past times is listening to music. Though at this point in time, my music preferences have changed with the cadence of the time yet it still is one of my outlet so as to be able to recharge from a hard day's work. As I see it everyday, there are several stressful situations that we encounter and at the end of the day, if we are not that creative, we could end up too tired and too lazy to get up for the next day's activities. 

                      photo credit: Wide Street with Jacaranda Trees, Pretoria via photopin(license)

         Listening to music also allows me to appreciate the whole of it like lyrics, melody, background features, etc.. Remember that there are just similar notes being utilised in any song but it is so amazing to realise how the composer and arranger make everything in harmony with each other.

         Life then is like a music...it needs to be in constant harmony with both its internal and external dynamics. When one part is not in congruence with the rest then it could lead and start something undesirable. Hence,  it is always beneficial both for the person himself and for those outside of him to be in constant harmony so that peace and growth are attainable. 

         Enjoy your weekend everyone.

Learning to Gamble in Life

          Just recently, I made some discussions with good friends (Rod, Den and Jen) about various investments that we can make so as to be more productive in the near future. They told me and my wife that today's investment possibilities are plenty and to name a few, they mentioned about stocks investing as well as mutual fund. Beforehand, a friend of mine shared with me his blog on stocks but due to my other interests plus other commitments, I did not take a serious look on this one.



          Meanwhile, as the days went by, I pondered on this topic and thought that maybe, I could give myself a try on this venture. Thus, I am starting to read and read more on stocks with the aim of having more knowledge on this.  The more that I read, the more complications like terminologies and systems that came to me. However, I told myself that all these complications are but  simply part of the process of learning.



         Then, I tried to compare this new venture now to life. That as we go on our individual journeys, we also pass by different situations some more complex than others. However at the end of the day, everything boils down then to our ability to make decisions. We either can accept the complications in life or not. And as I constantly mentioned in my posts, we should always be ready to face the consequences of our daily choices may they be positive or not.

It's Weekend Once Again

          Every weekend, we tend to make lots of things depending on our priorities at times, connecting with others is always our priority. Why then we put importance on every weekend? Inside our minds, we can come up with so many reasons and one of those is that it is on this time of the week that we could find moment of relaxation from our whole week's activities. 


photo credit: Yee Haa! via photopin (license)
         Yes, the whole week is most oftentimes a busy routine for each one of us. Whatever our preoccupations could be during the week (work, studies, being with friends, being with children, etc. ), we spend much our time and energy on them thus it is but natural for us that when Fridays come, we feel like we are totally burn out from all these hectic schedules. As a result, we try to look for something that can help us recharge like going out with friends even at Friday nights, then others would see to it that Saturdays and Sundays are spent with loved ones like going to the beach, engaging in mountain trekking activities or fruit picking etc.. 

          As a whole, these weekend activities allow us to be revitalised and be ready again to face the coming week's challenges after all, life is always on its continuing process and cycle and it is up to us how to keep pace with all its complexities. Enjoy your weekend everyone.

Effects of Online Games on Children

The proliferation of online activities nowadays are getting so popular. Online activities such as online games, trading, marketing, blogging and many more. My focus of sharing at this time is on the impact of online games like Nickelodion on children. Nevertheless, it is my observation that nowadays, children as early as 3 years old (or maybe there are those younger than that age bracket), they are already exposed to the online world of games.

Varieties of these online games can be in the form of online games for kids, for girls, for ipads, etc. and one advantage of this is that at such  early stage, they are already exposed to the modern world of technology. They need though to cope with the cadence of the times thus allowing them to be in with what is considered as advancement of this modern era.

imagecredit:

On the contrary, there is also that risk that exposing our children to such development at that early stage would result to negative effects such as being manipulative, too relying on the internet (thus depriving them the chance to explore further), being too curious on things (others might happen to be not yet that appropriate for them ).

Thus, if we, adults, will try to check the situation of our children nowadays wisely, we therefore play a very significant role in this critical stage of their life and development. One of those demands on us is to be able to equate quality time for them. Our hectic schedules are not valid excuses for us to deprive our children with sufficient and desired upbringing. Whatever things that we impart with them today will impact less or more their life. Thus, may we all become effective bringers of good qualities to our children.

          There is a difference between interest and commitment. When you are interested in doing something, you do it only when it is convenient for you. When you are committed to something, you accept it with no excuses, only results.

         Most people are interested on what people will say on things that they do, they contribute, they share, as well as give, then it makes them feel good, they feel they hold the world, they feel people owed their lives to them. For some, they feel people are helpless without them and they feel that others can't do things without them, great in the eyes of the people.  

          On the other hand, if you are committed, you do something for people's lives, because you feel that they need it, because you feel what they feel and because without saying it, you can feel their silence, you can feel the beat of their hearts, you can see the reflexes of their eyes, and you can feel that they are thirsty and hungry, and you are committed, not in the eyes of the camera, or being aired on radio or being publicised, and that because you commit yourself to the people and to God. 

Hence, with these two varying sides, what's your choice? Be consistent to what you believe or not.
