Sad farewells of 2008

Last year has been the best and the worst year for me. My uncle and grandma passed away last year and I recently ended a two year relationship with a closed friend. Sometimes it’s so easy to look back at the “should a, could a, would as” but it’s really counterproductive. All I know is this. Given that we have no control over another, we just have to state our perspective, and let that other person do the same. Sometimes there are no pleasant good-byes, but at least there are new beginnings. I hate to say it but usually when a relationship end feelings are hurt and emotions take a beating. It cause most of us to say and do things we aren't proud of later. It shouldn't be this way but most of the time things happen, words are said and the next thing you know it’s to late to take it back and the damage is done. The lesson here was some people come in our lives and are meant to stay. Others are here and gone with not enough time to know what we learned from them, But each friend is a learning experience and we should feel bless about it.

♥ Welcoming the year 2009. Thank God for the blessing like, now proud to say I am permanent resident here in Japan hurray !!!! 4 months of waiting is all wort it. And I found a new career a new friends and a wonderful learning experience through the help of my family and friends. Happy =)) and contented !!!!Looking forward this year.

the test of time

They say when you get a new friend don't be quick to trust. Rather test that person to see if he or she is worth to be your friend. True Friends are really hard to come by, there are few acquaintance! But a true friend takes some time. It is really hard to tell if he or she is the one you can call a best friend. Some of us they have to test their friends to see if they are true to them. If you feel you have to test your friendship without a true need, I would not want to be that friend. If you think they are your best friend, then you would not feel the need to test the friendship. But if there are trust issues, then they are obviously not a BEST friend type.

precious gift

People are concerned about the quality of the water they drink. We all know the importance of water, but why our society continues to contaminate this precious resource. Did you know that water covers 70% of the Earth and only 1% of the Earth’s water is available as source of drinking. Take note only 1% of water is usable to us. Water is one of the nature’s most important gift to man kind, essential of life. We should take this topic seriously, what will happen if there's no clean water to drink? For hygiene how can we take a shower ? etc ... Water supply is commodity necessary for our survival. We should make a effort in order to save water.

♥ Water Conservation.
In simple ways we can help. Let's start it in our home by learning how to conserve water is the best thing to do. Few hours ago I was talking to my mom through phone, and she told me that the water bill in her house fluctuate since four months ago. I came up with the idea of sharing this chart to her and at the same time ask her if she consumed water properly. Take a look at the chart

Average indoor water use

♥ Bathroom:
The bathroom is where most of the home's water is used. Shower and baths consumed about 30% of water used indoors. You can save water by keeping each shower short, running the water only when it is needed lather up and rinse off.
♥ Toilet:
Toilet is the second most used in our home too. Some of us use this toilet as a garbage disposal don't do that, flush only when its necessary.
♥Washing Machines:
Washing your clothes is a necessity. However, keep in mind that laundry uses 22% of all water in your home! In order to maximize the efficiency of your laundry, only do full loads. Another way to save water is to ask yourself "Does this really need washing?" A lot of times, people wear clothes for only a few hours, and then discard them as "Dirty". Use discretion in when you wash your clothes
♥Faucets and Dishwasher
For faucets replace washer-less faucets and tighten the waterline connection and valves ,for dishwasher look for water drips or stains underneath or in back of the machine. For more information about this topic visit Water Service and Meters

Remember water conservation means doing the same with less. It is the management of water as a resource to eliminate waste and maximize the efficient of use. Use water wisely...
