Changing our physiology is one of the best ways to change the
way we think and feel. Smiling (and I don’t mean just a little
smile - a big grin will do!) has the ability to change how we
feel in an instant. Laughter too, is one of the best ways to
heal our mind and body, hence the […]
Despite the shortage of the brides in number when compared to the number of bride-grooms, due to various reasons including the preference to male child birth, there is an increasing trend in the late marriage of girls. This is due to socio-economic imbalances. Now a days the girls are earning equally and some times more […]
A telescope can be a wonderful tool for those who have always been fascinated by the night sky. With the right model you may be able to see the planets, stars, and the moon with greater clarity than you had ever imagined before. But, how will you know which model is right for […]
Have you ever noticed that when you are on vacation time goes by rapidly? According to my calculations (and I’m the first to admit I didn’t do well in calculus), the average minute during vacation time is less than 20 seconds. This is one reason time goes by so quickly on vacation.

paying any attention to God’s laws for us. You may think the
