			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Christmas is almost here! And so is the parties and the temptation to forget our diet and indulge ourselves with all the sweet treats around us.  Oooppppssss&#8230;  Before you even think about taking <a href="http://www.researchdietpills.com/">diet pills</a> after the holidays to get rid of the pounds that you gained, I think it will be better if you set limits to how much indulging you give yourself.  Remember, prevention will always be better than getting rid of what&#8217;s already there.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know one thing that I like about blogging is reading the thoughts of others.  It could be their own thought or they may have copied it from somewhere but nevertheless, most of the things that I have read are very inspiring and made me stop and think for a moment.  Here is one of the posts that really made me stop and think. </p>
<p>&#8220;Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won&#8217;t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It&#8217;s not just in some of us; it&#8217;s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.&#8221;</p>
<p>Nice huh?  It&#8217;s an old post from someone.  He said he got it somewhere, too bad though for he stopped blogging.  He&#8217;s more into posting photographs now.  Hope that enlightens you as it enlightened me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An uncle passed away last Saturday, November 15th 2008 and I truly regret that I was not able to see him the last time I went home.  He was ill then and yet I along with my laziness, I decided not leave early for Leyte.  If I have done so, I could have visited him in the hospital.  Two months passed and he had left his loved ones forever.  He&#8217;s the husband of an aunt, my mom&#8217;s elder sister and like most families, we do have some misunderstanding every now and then, however, this couple holds a very special place in my heart for they are some of those very few people who taught me a lot of things in life.  And I truly admire them for even if they had 15 children, they were able to provide for my cousins and even find it in their hearts to help other people who are in need.  I know that people will come and go in our lives.  Some may come back but most will leave us forever.  And so it saddens me when a person who is truly dear to my heart passes away and the worst thing is I was not able to even reach out in their time of need.  And what saddens me most is the fact that a time will come when all those who are close to me will leave me and I am scared that whatever links me and my relatives will be gone forever along with the passing of those who are dear to our hearts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I was younger, I wondered how banks earn.  My aunt who has been dealing with banks for most of her life said that banks earn from <a title="savings accounts" href="http://savingsaccounts.com">savings accounts</a>.  I was like what?  How could that be possible?  I mean we can open up an account and maintain a certain amount to keep it open without paying anything, right?   Well, yeah we do but it&#8217;s very minimal if you will consider the expenses that they incur just to keep the bank open.  She said that banks earn from savings accounts but indirectly though.  Banks earn from the interests of the loans that they give out and most of the time they will get the capital from the deposits that come in from the savings accounts.   And I was like ah&#8230; okay&#8230;  And so, if you plan to open up a savings account and plan to keep your money there for a while, try to <a title="compare banks" href="http://savingsaccounts.com">compare banks</a> for you to find <a title="great rates" href="http://savingsaccounts.com">great rates</a>, interest rates that is, for the money that you are planning to keep in that account.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blogs are like reflections of one&#8217;s thoughts.  Of one&#8217;s mind.  I was going through some online articles, some are from my friends and the others are from people whom I haven&#8217;t met and I realized how naive and how immature I am.  Well, that&#8217;s how i felt going through those articles.  I mean most of the time I will just whine about a lot of things (like now) while other people are already talking about changing the world and doing it.  Some are talking about being able to shine to make other people shine while my mindset was to take the back seat and let other people drive.  I wonder what could that mean?  Am taking life too lightly or am I just comparing myself to other people too much?  Hmmm&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t know if it has something to do with the difficulties of life or people are just becoming smarter everyday.  Have you observed how a <a href="http://newrich.wordpress.com/about/" target="_blank">nouveau riche scam</a> becomes more and more complex as time goes by?  Before, in the Philippines, what we have was the budul-budul gang where a person would call a household to tell whoever answers the phone, most of the time it will be the maids, that the homeowner had an accident and needs money badly for the hospital.  I don&#8217;t know how they do it but most of the time they will go and give the money to the suspects.  A few years later, another <a href="http://nouveauricheuniversity.blogharbor.com/blog/_archives/2008/6/9/3736070.html" target="_blank">nouveau riche scam</a> came into light better known as pyramid scam.  How it works?  Hmmm&#8230; First, the founder recruits a certain number of people.  He/she will introduce a product and will make it appear as if the member will earn by commission if the member will sell the product.   So for you to sell the product, you need to shell out a certain amount from 5,000 to 10,000 as starters.  The founder gives a kit to the member so that the member will start selling the product.  And then the founder would say you know what, why don&#8217;t you recruit at least two members.  So that, you can earn more for you will also get commisions on their sales.  And if your two members will be able to recruit two each, you and your two recruits will get commission on whatever their recruits sells and so on and so forth.  But the pyramid scam that really which I consider the <a href="http://nouveauricheuniversity.blogharbor.com/blog/_archives/2008/1/18/3472407.html" target="_blank">nouveau rich scam</a> of all time, works the same way as the one that I mentioned but the member does not need to sell any product.  All the member has to do is invest and to recruit people and encourage them to do the same.  What happens is, a member will be asked to shell out at least 10,000 pesos and is promised that his/her money will return in a short period.  So surely enough, a check with the promised amount will arrive a few weeks later.  And then the founding member will contact you to tell you that you can increase your investment to get a higher commision but you can&#8217;t go beyond 100,000 pesos to give way to others who may want to join the company.  Since you were able to get a check for your first investment, you go ahead and put 100,000 Pesos more and tell your friends and family members.  You give your testimony that it is true and then convinced them to invest money and then&#8230; BAM!  The company closes down and the founder goes into hiding&#8230; with your money of course.  Tsk, tsk, tsk&#8230; Is it really about the criminal mind going complex or is it plainly our greed that brings us to this kind of situation?</p>
