market is going up? You&#39;ve probably noticed how the prices of everything is going up?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I can ask you a question, It will be: What are you doing about it? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am in an &lt;a href=&quot;https://karatbars.com/landing/?s=reflexions&quot;&gt;Inflation proofen business&lt;/a&gt; and I help people  set up affordable Gold Savings account.&lt;br /&gt;
I help people accelerate their savings, eliminate their debts and inflation proof their future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Karatbars International specializes in making 999.9 pure currency grade gold readily available to people of the world by producing it in smaller, more accessible, more affordable and transaction friendly (spendable) weights.&lt;br /&gt;
This puts gold within reach of people who couldn’t previously afford it.

Our whole mission is centered around a powerful savings plan – converting spending habits into savings habits and creating a systematic wealth creation and wealth preservation plan.&lt;br /&gt;
We’re getting people off the system of debt and bringing financial wholeness to a broken world.

As &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goldmoneytoday.com/Reflexions&quot;&gt;affiliates&lt;/a&gt; we are not selling anything; we use the Karatbars vehicle to teach to create meaningful savings and leveraged income from as system by changing spending habits into savings habits without compromising current cash-flow or lifestyle and literally get paid in both cash and gold for teaching others to do the same.&lt;br /&gt;
Undoubtedly this is most powerful financial literacy program in existence.

With our powerful leverage plan you can Save Money, Accumulate Wealth and Protect Your Financial Future by converting declining currency into spendable gold while eliminating debt and accelerating your cash-flow simultaneously.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What if I can show you how to proof yourself against inflation, accelerating your Cashflow and also getting paid if you show others how to do the same?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you&#39;ll be able to take a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goldmoneytoday.com/Reflexions&quot;&gt;look&lt;/a&gt;, feel free to contact me or ask any questions you have.</description><link>http://life-reflexions.blogspot.com/2016/10/what-have-i-been-up-to-ive-been-saving.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Nekky)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8892154776731225397.post-1903755355179961550</guid><pubDate>Thu, 05 Mar 2015 19:08:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2015-03-05T20:08:47.915+01:00</atom:updated><title>Welcome To The Weekend Blog Hop</title><description>&lt;center&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;A therapist goes to middle school and tries to sit still and focus. She can’t. Neither can the kids.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;
&lt;img class=&quot;zoom-in&quot; data-hi-res-src=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=http://img.washingtonpost.com/rf/image_908w/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2014/02/08/Others/Images/2014-02-08/SameGender041391883853.jpg&amp;amp;w=1484&quot; data-low-res-src=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=http://img.washingtonpost.com/rf/image_908w/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2014/02/08/Others/Images/2014-02-08/SameGender041391883853.jpg&amp;amp;w=480&quot; src=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=http://img.washingtonpost.com/rf/image_908w/2010-2019/WashingtonPost/2014/02/08/Others/Images/2014-02-08/SameGender041391883853.jpg&amp;amp;w=1484&quot; height=&quot;273&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;This is a follow-up to two popular posts about the problems kids face
 when they are forced to sit still in school for hours on end without a 
break. The first, written by pediatric occupational therapist Angela 
Hanscom, was titled “&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2014/07/08/why-so-many-kids-cant-sit-still-in-school-today/&quot;&gt;Why so many kids can’t sit still in school today” &lt;/a&gt;and
 discussed how being inactive affects students’ ability to stay focused 
and learn, and in some cases leads to improper diagnoses of Attention 
Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD. The next piece was titled&lt;br /&gt; “&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2014/12/03/a-therapist-goes-to-middle-school-and-tries-to-sit-still-and-focus-she-cant-neither-can-the-kids/%20http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2014/10/07/the-right-and-surprisingly-wrong-ways-to-get-kids-to-sit-still-in-class/&quot;&gt;The right — and surprisingly wrong — ways to get kids to sit still in class&lt;/a&gt;.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;Hanscom
 has now written a third related piece, this one specifically about 
middle-schoolers. Hanscom told me that she was curious about the effects
 of restricted movement on students in middle school, so she went to a 
local middle school to observe what was going on inside classrooms and 
talk to teachers and parents. The following post explains Hanscom’s 
experience and findings at the middle school she visited.&amp;nbsp; Hanscom is 
the founder of TimberNook, a nature-based development program designed 
to foster creativity and independent play outdoors in New England.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I was raised up in a Christain family which I grew up to cherish. As a mother, I&#39;m trying to do the same but due to everyday stress (work, school,family, households, after-school-activities,e.t.c.), I hardly have time to sit with my kids to talk about God or study the bible.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;I find this post helpful because it touches different ways we can teach our young children about God in everyday life. Hope you enjoy it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;One of the most significant things we can to as mothers to teach 
young children about the Lord is to live out our faith in everyday life,
 sharing Biblical truths along the way through our words and actions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;As Sally Clarkson shares in Desperate: Hope for the Weary Mom,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;“It is so vitally important that we live with integrity 
by choosing to worship God in front of our children through all the 
moments of our day.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Today I would like to share with you four things that I try to do 
every day to help my toddler begin her journey toward authentic faith 
and a personal relationship with Christ.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;god every day&quot; class=&quot;aligncenter size-full wp-image-2855&quot; height=&quot;425&quot; src=&quot;http://blog.jennimullinix.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/god-every-day.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;h2&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;How to Teach Little Ones about God Throughout the Day&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Pray with your kids.&lt;/strong&gt; You can do this &lt;a href=&quot;http://blog.jennimullinix.com/good-days-begin-with-a-morning-prayer/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Good Days Begin with Prayer&quot;&gt;in the morning&lt;/a&gt;,
 at mealtime, during family devotions, before bedtime, or all of the 
above. Whenever you choose, it is important for your little ones to hear
 you pray so they can learn to pray themselves. Understanding that God 
listens to our prayers it an important lesson for young children to 
learn in order for them to grow in their faith.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Read faith-based books.&lt;/strong&gt;
 Setting aside time each day to read Bible stories or other 
inspirational tales can be a great way to introduce toddlers to God and 
teach important character qualities. And there are so many great Christian books for you to choose from! I especially like Biblical resources that incorporate academic learning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Sing and listen to Christian music.&lt;/strong&gt; Teach your littles popular Christian children songs, hymns and praise songs. Play worship music while doing chores or in the car. Singing is also one of the best tools to use for memorizing Bible verses when they are ready.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Talk about God.&lt;/strong&gt; Incorporate God in your everyday conversations. When taking a nature walk, mention how God created everything they see. Discuss how we should be thankful
 to the Lord for providing the blessings we have in our lives. Remind 
them of God’s&amp;nbsp;commandments&amp;nbsp;when they are dealing with temptation. 
Although little ones won’t completely understand all that you say, they 
will be&amp;nbsp;hearing&amp;nbsp;to the truth of God, which will take root in their 
hearts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;As you begin to make these simple actions a part of your daily 
routine, I believe you will be amazed at how much your children begin to
 pick up. My daughter (currently 19 months) is often the one initiating 
prayer before dinner and randomly begins singing praise songs while 
helping me with the dishes or riding in the car. Little moments like 
that make this mama’s heart full of joy!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;
What are some ways you teach your children about God throughout the day?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h5&gt;

From the beautiful trees standing so tall,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;image&quot; class=&quot;aligncenter size-medium wp-image-46589&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://www.weddingdigestnaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image703-400x400.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Josefina
 Vilela lost both of her legs below the knee and part of her left arm 
after the fire at her home in Walsall, West Midlands in 2011.The blaze –
 which left Josefina with 60 per cent burns and killed her father Carlos
 – was started by her stepmother, Georgina Vilela, who has since been 
jailed for murder.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;image&quot; class=&quot;aligncenter size-medium wp-image-46591&quot; height=&quot;286&quot; src=&quot;http://www.weddingdigestnaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image704-559x400.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Josefina, who was just 14 years old when the fire took place, spent 
18 months in hospital and has since learned to walk again using two 
prosthetic legs. But despite the horrific events which tore the 
teenager’s life apart, she told this week how she has now forgiven her 
father’s killer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;image&quot; class=&quot;aligncenter size-medium wp-image-46593&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://www.weddingdigestnaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image705-302x400.jpg&quot; width=&quot;302&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Josefina told how of her forgiveness on the day she was reunited with 
the fire crew who saved her from the burning building. The inspirational
 teenager wept as she was given a bouquet of flowers by firefighters at 
Walsall Fire Station earlier this week during a visit organized. She 
said: ‘I’ve been wanting to meet these men ever since the night of the 
fire to tell them how amazing they are. They saved my life. They are my 
heroes.’&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;image&quot; class=&quot;aligncenter size-medium wp-image-46595&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; src=&quot;http://www.weddingdigestnaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/image706-302x400.jpg&quot; width=&quot;302&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Stepmother
 Georgina is currently serving a minimum 23-year jail term for murder 
and arson with intent to endanger life. She poured petrol over Carlos as
 he lay in bed and the resulting fire quickly engulfed the house where 
then-14-year-old Josefina and her three sisters were asleep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi: No, Women Can&#39;t Have It All&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h1 class=&quot;title&quot; href=&quot;http://mashable.com/2014/07/02/pepsico-indra-nooyi-women-have-it-all/&quot;&gt;
&lt;img alt=&quot;http://geronimo.typepad.fr/.a/6a010535d58d31970b01127942f7f228a4-pi&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;http://geronimo.typepad.fr/.a/6a010535d58d31970b01127942f7f228a4-pi&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Have you heard of Indra Nooyi?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;She’s the Chair­man and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;CEO&lt;/span&gt; of Pep­sico and she’s also an incred­i­ble role model for work­ing&amp;nbsp;women.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Why?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Not only is she one of the most suc­cess­ful busi­ness lead­ers, but she’s fun, warm hearted, orig­i­nal &amp;nbsp;and a humanist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;While top­ping Forbes.com’s list of the&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.forbes.com/lists/2008/11/biz_powerwomen08_The-100-Most-Powerful-Women_Rank.html&quot;&gt; 100 most pow­er­ful women in the world&lt;/a&gt;, Indra Nooyi has a very irrev­er­ent per­sonal&amp;nbsp;style…&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;At Pepsi Co, she has long been known for patrolling the office bare­foot, singing in the&amp;nbsp;halls.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;In an unusually frank interview, PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi said she 
doesn&#39;t think that women can &quot;have it all,&quot; adding that a career 
requires women to sacrifice some aspects of motherhood.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&quot;If you ask our daughters,&quot; she said in a frank interview on work-life 
balance, &quot;I&#39;m not sure they will say that I&#39;ve been a good mom.&quot;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&quot;I don&#39;t think women can have it all. I just don&#39;t think so,&quot; she &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2014/07/why-pepsico-ceo-indra-k-nooyi-cant-have-it-all/373750/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;told David Bradley&lt;/a&gt;, owner of the Atlantic Media Company, at the Aspen Ideas Festival earlier this week. &quot;We pretend we &lt;em&gt;have&lt;/em&gt; it all. We pretend we &lt;em&gt;can&lt;/em&gt; have it all,&quot; Nooyi, who has been married 34 years and has two daughters, said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;She Continued: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;And every day you have to make a decision about whether 
you are going to be a wife or a mother; in fact, many times during the 
day you have to make those decisions. And you have to co-opt a lot of 
people to help you. We co-opted our families to help us. We plan our 
lives meticulously so we can be decent parents. But if you ask our 
daughters, I&#39;m not sure they will say that I&#39;ve been a good mom. I&#39;m not
 sure. And I try all kinds of coping mechanisms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;As an example, Nooyi explained she had to usually skip a Wednesday 
morning class coffee with other mothers at her daughter&#39;s Catholic 
school. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;My daughter would come home and she would list off all the mothers that were there and say, &quot;You were not there, mom.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The first few times, I would die with guilt. But I developed coping 
mechanisms. I called the school and I said, &quot;Give me a list of mothers 
that are not there.&quot; So when she came home in the evening she said, &quot;You
 were not there, you were not there.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;And I said, &quot;Ah ha, Mrs. Redd wasn&#39;t there, Mrs. So-and-so wasn&#39;t there. So I&#39;m not the only bad mother.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Despite such coping mechanisms, Nooyi says there&#39;s no way to square a high-pressure career with raising kids.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&quot;My observation, David, is that the biological clock and the career 
clock are in total conflict with each other. Total, complete conflict. 
When you have to have kids, you have to build your career. Just as 
you&#39;re rising to middle management, your kids need you because they&#39;re 
teenagers, they need you for the teenage years,&quot; she said.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;One of Nooyi&#39;s solutions was to enlist her employees for help. When 
her daughter was young and wanted to play Nintendo, for instance, she 
would call Nooyi&#39;s office. A receptionist would run her through a list 
of questions, including, &quot;Have you finished your homework?&quot; If her 
daughter said yes, the receptionist would give her permission to play 
Nintendo for 30 minutes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;In addition to discussing parenting, Nooyi also relayed an anecdote 
about her own mother. When Nooyi found out she would be named president 
of PepsiCo in, she says she headed home early — at 10 p.m., instead of 
midnight — to share the news.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;I got home about 10, got into the garage, and my mother was waiting 
at the top of the stairs. And I said, &quot;Mom, I&#39;ve got great news for 
you.&quot; She said, &quot;Let the news wait. Can you go out and get some milk?&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;I looked in the garage and it looked like my husband was home. I 
said, &quot;What time did he get home?&quot; She said, &quot;8:00.&quot; I said, &quot;Why didn&#39;t
 you ask him to buy the milk?&quot; &quot;He&#39;s tired.&quot; [...] She said, just get 
the milk. We need it for the morning. So like a dutiful daughter, I went
 out and got the milk and came back.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;I banged it on the counter and I said, &quot;I had great news for you. 
I&#39;ve just been told that I&#39;m going to be president on the Board of 
Directors. And all that you want me to do is go out and get the milk, 
what kind of a mom are you?&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;And she said to me, &quot;Let me explain something to you. You might be 
president of PepsiCo. You might be on the Board of Directors. But when 
you enter this house, you&#39;re the wife, you&#39;re the daughter, you&#39;re the 
daughter-in-law, you&#39;re the mother. You&#39;re all of that. Nobody else can 
take that place. So leave that damned crown in the garage. And don&#39;t 
bring it into the house. You know I&#39;ve never seen that crown.&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;A jobless man applied for the position of ‘office boy’ at a very big company.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The employer interviewed him, then a test: clean the floor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;“You are hired.” – the employer said. ”Give me your email address, 
and I’ll send you the application to fill, as well as when you will 
start.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The man replied, “I don’t have a computer, neither an email.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;“I’m sorry,” said the employer, “if you don’t have an email , you cannot have the job.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The man left with no hope. He didn’t know what to do, with only $10 USD in his pocket.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;He then decided to go to the supermarket, bought a 10 kg tomato 
crate, then sold the tomatoes door to door. In less than two hours, he 
succeeded and doubled his capital. He repeated the operation 3 times and
 returned home with $60 USD. The man realized that he could survive by 
this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and returned late. Thus, 
his money doubled or tripled everyday. Shortly later, he bought a cart, 
then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Five years later, the man’s company was one of the biggest food 
retailers. He started to plan his family’s future, and decided to have a
 life insurance. He called an insurance broker and chose a protection 
plan. When the conversation was concluded, the broker asked him his 
email. The man replied: “I don’t have an email.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The broker replied curiously, “You don’t have an email, and yet have 
succeeded to build an empire. Do you imagine what position you could 
have if you had an email?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The man paused for a while, and replied: “An office boy!”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Don’t be discouraged if something is not in your favor today. Better opportunities are always waiting ahead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;</description><link>http://life-reflexions.blogspot.com/2014/07/a-tomato-story.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Nekky)</author><thr:total>2</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8892154776731225397.post-2007303559229750390</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Jun 2014 06:24:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-06-27T08:24:12.004+02:00</atom:updated><title>Welcome To The Weekend Blog Hop</title><description>&lt;center&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;http://libertysnippet.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/girl-friends.jpg&quot; class=&quot;decoded&quot; height=&quot;244&quot; src=&quot;http://libertysnippet.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/girl-friends.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Great Friendships Are Priceless&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;image_description&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The good friends in your life are often overshadowed by the drama the
 bad ones bring. Sure, you complain about the faux friends in your world
 – you know, the shady ones, you can’t half trust, who are more like 
acquaintances, and you can’t wait to hang up the phone and talk about? –
 but what about the keepers? The one who calls you back to check on you,
 even when you rudely told her to leave you be; the one who went with 
you to that party so you could save face when your date blew you off. If
 you’re blessed enough to have one of these six friend types in your 
life, hold on tight.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The Kindred Soul&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;image_description&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;She may not always have the answers, but you’re kindred souls, so she
 will understand. She can sense when something’s off in your world, and 
you know just when she needs you most. You’re sisters from another 
mother and you’ll want to continue to love and cherish her the way you 
do your own family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The Motivator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;image_description&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Her friendship challenges you to go places you’ve never been, do 
things you swore you couldn’t, and reach heights you never imagined you 
could soar to. She’s an inspiration, and she’s not afraid to push you 
when it counts. Put simply: Your relationship is priceless. Remember 
that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The Confidant&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;image_description&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Your private matters are safest with her, and you know it; that’s why
 you tell her everything. She’ll guard your secrets with her life, so 
don’t you go giving up any of hers. Continue to be each other’s ears to 
listen. You’ll always need a trustworthy friend like this along the road
 of life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The Teammate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;image_description&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;If you have an extra ticket, she’s there. When it’s raining, and no 
on else feels like coming out for a drink, she’s already on her way. You
 know her well: She’s that friend you can truly count on to be down for&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;whatever&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;and
 right there by your side. You can’t imagine your social life without 
her, so be willing to put in the work it takes to be sure she sticks 
around. Remember to be there when she needs a no-fuss buddy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The Fighter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;image_description&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Most-likely the loudest one in your circle, this friend has zero 
problems telling you what’s on her mind. Her no-nonsense attitude is a 
breath of fresh air when you need someone who’s not afraid to keep it 
real. She’ll stand up for you even when you’re not prepared to defend 
yourself and she loves just as hard as she fights. Know this woman? Keep
 her around!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h2 id=&quot;image_title&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;The Rock&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;When you’re at your weakest, she’s strong for you. Her words of 
wisdom and support echo in your heart and soul and lift you back to 
happy places. She’s made room in her heart for you, so make sure you 
thank her for being your rock, and always show her some love.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;If you’re lucky enough to have one of these types of women by your side in life, never let them go&amp;nbsp; -&amp;nbsp; Charli Penn&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
