MY HAPPY THOUGHTS

PART 1:

 My Happy Thoughts

God's Blessings and Guidance

Family

Friends

Success

Longer Life

New Year's Day

INTERPRETATION:

         These are my source of happiness. Some are in the present and some are in the near future....

1. Family- I am happy because I have my family with me. For me they are one of the reasons why I'm still alive in this world. They have made my life meaningful and I would be very happy if I would see them in good health and to watch them succeed in their own lives in the future.
2. Friends- I am also happy because I have my real friends with me.I am grateful that I found friends who laugh at my bad jokes, go with my bad plans, flow with my bad moods, know my bad attitudes but still see the best in me. I hope that they are always in good health and our friendship will last forever.
3. Success- Everyone's dream is to have a successful life someday and I would be very happy if I would see everyone succeed in their own lives...my friends most importantly, my family.
4. New Year's Day- Since, we do not celebrate Christmas in our religion, this is the ideal time that my family becomes complete even though we don't have much money to have glamorous celebration, still, I am very happy because I have a complete family with me.
5. Longer Life- I think most of us wants to have a longer life not because of materials things in this world but spend longer life and time with their love ones. 
6. God's Blessings and Guidance- For me it is the most important above all. I think all of my wish for them would not be granted without God's guidance and blessings.

PART 2:

Hindrances in My Happy Thoughts

1. Death of  Love Ones- I consider my love ones as my strength especially my family. I want to spend my life with them. I consider this as one of the saddest moment in my life. This is one of the things that I am afraid of...to awake one day without them. It is very hard to accept the fact that three of them already gone but still I have to be strong and continue my life.
2. Despair- Sometimes I feel despair especially when problems arise. Sometimes I lose my hope in pursuing life specially my dreams and I think this is one of the obstacles to pass to succeed in life.
3. Misunderstanding- Sometimes misunderstanding with my family and friends arise,and this is one the reason that we loosens our strong bonds with each other especially the love and trust with each other.
4. Life's Problem- Sometimes because of problems everyone loses faith, love, trust,etc.,
5. To Lose Faith- For me, it is the worst thing that we can do. If we lose faith especially in God's power we cannot overcome all of these said hindrances.

PART 3:

Solutions to My Hindrances

1. Acceptance- We need to accept that everything comes to an end...everyone died and accept fact that they will not be with us all the time. In that way, you will not afraid on death, just always spend precious time with them when they are still with us.
2. Be Open-minded- We need to understand that life's problem is life's nature and always have an open-mind in dealing with the behaviors of your family and friends. In that way, you can have harmonious relationship with them.
3. Be Optimistic- Always look on the positive way on life because this will make you understand, accept and succeed in any life situations.
4. Prayer- God is powerful above all. Nothing is impossible to Him so we need to trust Him...believe in everything that he can do for us because He will not let us fall.

CHRISTMAS FOR SALE

CHRISTMAS FOR SALE

In many parts of the world, Christmas is the day when people celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem two thousand years ago. People who remember Christmas as a religious holiday celebrate the birth of Jesus and his coming into this world. To them, he is recognized as the Son of God and the Savior of the world. According to the Bible, Jesus was born in a manger because there was no room for him and his parents, Mary and Joseph, in an inn. Today, people often attend church, organize family gatherings, and decorate their homes and businesses (with real or artificial trees). People feel the giving spirit and donateworthy causes, or provide volunteer service to the needy. Christmas is also celebrated as a secular holiday when parents and children talk about Santa Claus and Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer. their time and money to

What is the true meaning of Christmas?"

Answer: The true meaning of Christmas is love. John 3:16-17 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." The true meaning of Christmas is the celebration of this incredible act of love.

The real Christmas story is the story of God's becoming a human being in the Person of Jesus Christ. Why did God do such a thing? Because He loves us! Why was Christmas necessary? Because we needed a Savior! Why does God love us so much? Because He is love itself ( 1 John 4:8). Why do we celebrate Christmas each year? Out of gratitude for what God did for us, we remember His birth by giving each other gifts, worshipping Him, and being especially conscious of the poor and less fortunate.

The true meaning of Christmas is love. God loved His own and provided a way—the only Way—for us to spend eternity with Him. He gave His only Son to take our punishment for our sins. He paid the price in full, and we are free from condemnation when we accept that Christmas Day

If Problems Arise

Sometimes child care programs

that are wonderful take a sudden

turn for the worse. That’s why it

is important to keep a watchful

eye and to continually monitor

your child care situation. If you

believe that your child care

arrangement is not safe, take

immediate action. If the situation

is serious, do not hesitate to find

alternative care right away. After

all, you alone are most

responsible for your child’s

health and safety.

Remember also that you have a

responsibility to other children to

see that they are well cared for.

Express your concerns to the

caregiver, and report concerns to

the Department of Human

Services or your local licensing

agency. It may feel uncomfortable

at first, but it is the right

thing to do. Our children deserve

the very best care that we can give

them.
