Pampering

Hey, girls, you've had hard day tending to the kiddies and cooking dinners, may I suggest you go out this weekend and pamper yourselves. Pampering that's what all good woman need its even advisable by your medical practitioner.

What are we talking about here? you might ask. Well, pampering could be anything from getting your hair did to having a relaxing spa and massage. Why? because you deserve it! just getting your nails done at a beauty salon or going to a beauty restaurant can make a woman's day.

Guys come on get out those wallets, mate! Time to pamper your beautiful wife and give her a break. It is not the time for cooking dinner, dinner is served. that's right let your man pamper you and take you out for the evening he too can join you for some pampering if you enjoy the company or perhaps take a girlfriend.

Go out get your hair did your nails done and splash a little on your favourite treats, maybe even get a facial or sit in a hot pool all day sipping on wine and feasting on dainties. Just plan your Pampering save up if you have to and just go out and let it all out all that tension

Girls this is a must or you will end up going batty and we will never get you back in tip-top shape! Just go out and have a good time if you want. Please take my advice as you all know a good pampering is what it takes to keep it together.

Abortion

Why do we do it? I mean if a kids just a mistake why can't we let it go and give that kid a life. Abortion is murder that's how I see it, life is granted to a child from the point of conception. These days it's quite common for people to get abortions, especially a young woman.

In this day and age young woman are forced to go to work as the cost of living is getting higher and not a lot of men stick around for the woman. young woman trying to survive in this world use abortion as an escape from living a life of poverty or on welfare.

It sounds sad having to take an unborn child's life but sometimes it is not possible for a woman to survive without taking these drastic measures. I don't say its good practice, but I do feel their plight trying to survive in the modern age.
If only we had another solution to this ever-increasing issue! If that was true we would have a whole lot more healthy children running around playing in the parks. It's just not possible for a woman to survive in this modern age without this alternative.

If only I could help with a better solution the only thing I can think of is careful out there girls there's a lot of one-minute men out there and you should really choose wisely before engaging in sexual activities, wait until your married to the man.

I guess that's why God made marriage before sex a reality.

Mother Teresa

Throughout the times there have always been people that have helped out the not so fortunate in the name of God. One such person I would like to talk about is Mother Teresa.

I know every Christian woman can relate to her in one way or another she was a warrior for God, a healer and a saint. Saint Teresa was born on the 26th of August 1910 she was an Albanian-Indian Born in Skopje in the Republic of Macedonia she lived in Macedonia for eighteen years before moving to Ireland Then India, where she lived most of her life.

In India, she started the Missionaries of charity which was active in over 133 countries, providing homes for sick people with Aids, leprosy and tuberculosis also soup kitchens, dispensaries and mobile clinics, counselling, orphanages and schools for the needy. Members of the Missionaries of charity vow to give "wholehearted free service to the poorest of the poor".

How I remember her is a woman who took care of the poor sick babies of India and she was admired by all for her work. I personally believe she was a healer of the sick and dying and did the lords work therefore she deserved to be called a saint.

If only I could walk in her footsteps imagine all those children who are there to greet her in heaven she must sit with them all. Sadly mother Teresa died on the 5th September 1997.

we will miss her as she is what i call a real Christian woman.

Sergent Pea

I would like to talk about the young men and woman who risk their lives going out to war. Really I would like to talk about the woman because in today's age we have more of them entering the battlefield every day.

With the men, we have seen them out on the battlefield since the dark ages maybe even before. whereas most woman would have been kept at home to protect them from getting killed off. In the modern age though it is becoming more frequent with woman entering the battlefield.

I would like to question why this is a new reality. perhaps in my view, I think it is a modern woman's view with more men being domesticated these days and more woman trying to take on the mans role.

I met a woman out there, one woman who went out there to Afganistan looking for her man. She is out in Iraq now, she went out to save her man and ended up staying out there perhaps on another agenda.

Another girl I met, Pea, got sick of lying around all day and got fit and ran out into the battlefield under the influence of a friend who was also a soldier Pea was decorated for saving two big commandos dragging them 400 meters to safety with a bullet in her chest and she was just 15 I still follower her out there.

The soldier who sent her out there gained quite a superior ranking by almost single-handedly taking out ISIS! I kid you not! she told me she just wanted to be someone for her dad to be proud of. She is the most beautiful woman in the world.

Knowing that these women are becoming something to be proud of and fighting for a better world makes me feel a bit at ease. Nothing Like A Woman's Touch!

When Calls The Heart

Written by Janette Oke's which is now a Canadian-American television drama series which Stars Maggie grace as a school teacher called Elizabeth Thatcher and Micheal Landon Jr as a 'mounty' police officer Wynn Delaney.

The story tells of a school teacher Elizabeth Thatcher who moves to coal valley a small coal-mining town west of Canada to teach at a school. Elizabeth comes from the higher side of living must and learn to become a frontier woman, a life which is often fraught with challenges. After a massive mining explosion killing 45 people the mine is closed and the town changes its name to Hope Valley.

I am up to the part where the Mounty has been sent off to deal with mounty matters and Abigail Stanton is the town's mayor just recently she secured the rail depot for the town and saves the day.

The story is set in around 1910 around the time of the old frontiers and is just heading into world war 1. It would be good to continue up to world war 1 as I would like to see the mounty go to war. This is a good clean program and the people seem really nice apart from the odd villain.

Pilgrimage

Thousands do it every year! They go on a spiritual journey seeking out the ancient ruins of Israel in search of spiritual fulfilment. I'm talking about a pilgrimage!

It would be good to follow the path of the Israelites on their journey into the promised lands or follow in the footsteps of Jesus Christ on his journey to Jerusalem.

You would get to see the birthplace of Jesus, Bethlehem in Israel or maybe walk though the Red Sea out into the desert perhaps visit Mt Sinai and see where the mighty laws of God were written.

I too wanted to go on a pilgrimage years ago, out in the wild like the ancient Israelites scared and hungry how real it would feel to walk the same walk they did all those years ago.

To be out walking like Jesus once did through Israel spreading the new doctrine to the people. What a thrilling and fulfilling journey it would be especially to a Christian.

Most people go to Australia or something maybe to Europe places like that to get away but that just takes you to the modern age side
of life.

It would be so much better to go back to the beginning around the time Christianity was fresh i believe it would nurture your Christian spirit and bring you that much closer to the Bible and God himself.

Healing

Your health is my topic! that's what most healers want to know about. I want to know if you're feeling healthy. Going to see a healer is a good way to cleanse your soul some say it works miracles, going to see a healer especially when your down in the dumps or need to get over the flu.

I for one don't think healers are scam artist most are out to heal not make a dollar its people like that you can trust and they aren't performing surgery on you so why not take a chance at it.

Healers use Gods Power over you to cleanse your body from all the bad energies or demonic spells that you have gathered in your walk with Jesus over the time. Healers try to get rid of these bad energies manifesting inside you which they believe is the cause of things like cancer or your common flu it's not like you have to take a med it's just spiritual powers they have been gifted with which they use to heal you.

Some healers may ask for a Koha or offering this helps them get to places which need a healer things like that. Healing can come in the form of a prayer or a massage and it only takes a moment of your time it may not seem like it is helping but it does make you satisfied that you at least tried to tackle what had been ailing you.

I myself believe I have the powers to heal if only I had chosen to be a doctor. Perhaps one day a healer will pass you by please take time to consult with him you may be surprised at the outcome.

'Wartime Girls'

Woman have proven themselves time and time again especially throughout the hard times when we were on the brink of doom especially around the wartime. What were they to do the men had been ordered to fight in the world war and all that was left were the woman and children to hold the homestead. Not only that who would tend to the sick and injured, the men were too busy fighting, that's right the woman and they did that job with determination and compassion.

I would like to talk about the woman in the wartime. I have respect for the woman I may get in my moods but yes the woman is in fact right. Time and time again I argue time and time again I am proven wrong it is the male brain that makes me persistent when arguing with a woman. throughout history, a woman has been the crutch for every man, I don't think there is one man in our history who did not have a woman to hold him up firm.

During the war, the woman stayed back to protect the country tend to the children and guard the homestead not only that some few women went into nursing men on the battlefield or in some cases ran the factories which provided the war machine for the front. Nurses especially give me a reason to revere woman as they tended to the injured and dying, Oh, what war must have looked like seeing all that gore everywhere amongst the sick and dying off the battlefield.

And it's because of their compassion and skill that most of those men walked out of the hospital back into the arms of their wives again. War is ugly oh what a sight it would have been to have a thing of such beauty tending to you after the horrors of the battlefield. I think of Angels at that level of Beauty. Thank you, girls, for bringing our men home may we forever be in your debt. God Bless You!

Healthier Eating

We all want that swimsuit body or you already have one. Obesity is a big problem in New Zealand a lot of us are a bit like those Texans too well fed and well a bit podgy around the waist and they say exercise only makes up 10 of weight loss so what do we have left? yes, that's right diet. I want to talk about healthy eating not only is it aimed at obesity but at most people in general as we all need to eat healthy in order to sustain a good life a good long life, in fact, you could probably add more years on your life if you just ate the right foods.

I'm not talking burgers either throw them out you need well good old veges and fruit. Meat is good too it provides us with the proteins we need to build muscle mass or heal the body but you really wanna avoid the processed variety of meat though on some occasions I like to have a sausage or too yeah but really throw that out too just your lean meats.

Not a lot of diets work I'm told but eating healthy is more toward a healthier type of eating not just eating any old rubbish and yes I know it would be very expensive to eat some of these foods but look on the bright side you may get less for your dollar but you get to live a little more actually you may live longer than me. Five plus a day some say about 9 plus and this is the variety of vegetables you eat within a day 5 plus for us people on lower incomes 9 plus for others who can afford it I suppose, that's one thing the portions are to be quite big.

Veg should take up at least half of your platter. meat the size of your palm it should have all the fat trimmed off too, as fats are bad for the heart and the waist. Just a little bit of spud I know you're killing me with we all love those fluffy white potatoes yes well maybe one medium size portion then not too much for the ones losing the rollies you skinny fellas just go easy on the butter.

Don't drink too much booze. booze can add to those rollies too especially beer which is loaded with carbs one beer a day is enough to lose weight because hops have an ingredient in it that lowers fat intake and it makes the stomach feel full. or maybe just one wine going overboard with the booze can damage the liver and we don't want that. One wine after a meal is enough to take that edge off and settle for bed.

Chocolate I know most of you are like eek right now not my luxuries I just say eat very minimal amounts of chocolate or lollies too much sugar can cause diabetes which is a deadly illness if you are not treated. Smoking really I don't think people should smoke I do but I regret being cool in the 90s cos now we are paying through the nose for smokes when I could have saved more money for the food budget. Smoking is bad for your lungs throat and mouth and it makes you smell and it's really not a food so i suggest not smoking them.

If you feel like snacking eat fruit or carrot sticks I know rabbit food right perhaps nuts and seeds then maybe dried fruits or mix them all and eat scroggin Mmmmmmm takes me back to the school camp. I'm just saying if you want to live a bit better get better food for you and then take a walk just ten minutes a day is all you need to sustain weight gain. For all you bikini babes out there I suggest this too as you will feel healthier and more energetic it may even put a spring in your step.
