A CALL TO OUR CHRISTIAN BRETHREN: Let the Season of Lent for 2011 have a touch of purity and abstinence. Let us observe this Lent in a manner that there may not be another opportunity to remember and commemorate the Passion and Death of Jesus Christ. Let this year's Fast & Abstinence be a unique one that would bring us closer to the sufferings Jesus Christ endured at the hands of sinners.

Diaphorina
The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri, is native to Asia but has been present in South America for decades. In 1998, it was discovered for the first time in the Caribbean Basin in Guadeloupe and Florida. Since then, it has spread widely throughout the Caribbean and neighboring regions, including the Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Mexico, and Texas. D. citri primarily damages citrus by transmitting pathogens that cause citrus greening disease. In July 2004, citrus greening disease was reported for the first time in the Western Hemisphere in Brazil.

The ritual
Man set the buzz on aliens and extra terrestrials going. Centuries after centuries slipped by, but the progress and pace by either of the earthlings or the aliens, has been barely close to a stand off by both.
Now it is time we snapped the suspense, got the fuss undone and the euphoria regarding existence of an alien civilization closed.
A journey from 2012 to 2013 & forward
Is the universe ready to meet its end?
And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet to gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Mathew Ch: 24.31
No, not in the foreseeable future. Have a nice day!

Sit back & relax the simple life
The document encourages the reader to relax and enjoy observing nature and wildlife created by Mother Nature. It suggests sending the message to others who could benefit from relaxing and smiling.
People around us
“Therefore, all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.”
Mathew 7:12
Psalm 23
What is most valuable, is not what we have in our lives; but who we have in our lives.
For what doeth it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, but suffer the loss of his own soul?
SMILE - FRAGRANCE OF LOVE SUBLIME!
SMILE removes the bad odor from our minds. Enlivens our soul. Refreshes our intimacy with friends around. So Keep smiling for it is one territory where God would deign to tread to reach our heart. SMILE!
TEARS OF A WOMAN forwarded to me by Betsy
TEARS OF A WOMAN
“The tears of a woman” – is what the world ought to behold. The other side of Eve that only God saw and understood and so forgave her and her husband. The tears of love that hide the pain and anguish within and yet stays by the bedside of her companion in time of illness praying for his well-being and with folded hands at his deathbed with a supplication to God for his safety.
Change for the better!
The document describes the many failures and defeats experienced by Abraham Lincoln before eventually being elected President of the United States, including losing his job, failing in business, his wife's death, a nervous breakdown, and losing multiple elections and nominations over the years. It then states that two years after his last defeat, Lincoln was elected President, showing that failure does not mean one will never succeed but rather means to try again in a different way or that it is not yet the right time.
Mathematics of life
Did you know that attitude counts in every aspect of life?
There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
"Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today?" So she did and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head. "H-M-M," she said, "I think I'll part my hair down the middle today?" So she did and she had a grand day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head. "Well," she said, "today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail." So she did and she had a fun, fun day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head. "Yea!" she exclaimed, "I don't have to fix my hair today!"
Attitude is everything. Be nice to yourself and extra nice to others. Have a Good Day!
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly.......and
Leave the rest to God!
