Are You Content?
2008-01-03 06:46:00
1. Are you content with your job? Why/why not?I am a part time tutor for kids. It is an ok job really. I only need to know my limitations by not taking too many students so I don't get overly stressed out. But now that it is the school holiday, I welcomed the break too. I am trying to work from home this year with blogging.2. Are you content with your relationship with your significant other? If you don't have one, are you on the lookout for one? Yes, I am happily married for 13 years now.3. How about your friends? Are you content with the ones you have, how they treat you, etc? How so/how not?Yes, I am happy with my friends. I am glad to have them around. Having good friends has a lot to do with what criteria we look for in searching for these friends in the first place. If there is a common goal even if it meant emotional support or companionship and both parties are willing to give and make it happen, the friendship will blossom. The Golden Rule is especially applicable here: " ...

Power Thoughts
2008-01-02 22:53:00
In my reading, I have come across some interesting points that I would like to share with you folks.1. You can have everything you want if you help enough other people get what they want.This is a popular quotation from famous author Zig Ziglar. I read some of his books and he is a good and sensible author. I find that his quotation here is especially useful to bloggers whereby the interchange of experiences, knowledge, skills and talents are the ultimate resources one can have. If we are generous in the area of sharing, we will win the audiences’ return and participation.2. When the going gets tough-laugh.I think this thought explains itself. Laughter is not only the best medicine there is, it relieves stress without the side effects. It reduces tension and the tense situation.3. Don't miss the best things in life.4. Fix the problem, not the blame.This is the same as saying, attack the problem and not the person. We can have the attitude that when a problem arises in a relationship ...

Mortgages and Foreclosures
2008-01-02 01:02:00
Mortgage is part and parcel of home buying. It is a method of using property (real or personal) as security for the performance of an obligation, usually the payment of a debt. There are many different types of mortgage rates, whether fixed rate or adjustable rate mortgage depending on your needs and type of property. Different companies also allow for the flexibility of refinancing in the case that you are not able to pay off the monthly repayment rates. One can also have the choice of borrowing against the value of one's property even when they have taken a mortgage on their current property. This is called a home equity or second mortgage.Foreclosure is the proceed in which a bank or other secured creditor sells or repossesses a parcel of real property (immovable property) due to the owner's failure to comply with an agreement between the lender and borrower called a "mortgage" or "deed of trust." Commonly, the violation of the mortgage is a default in payment of a promissory note ...

Hello friends,Did you see my newly installed bookshelves? The one at the right sidebar are the books that I am reading now and the bookshelf at the bottom are for books that I have read.

These books in my online library now are the ones that I remembered reading or are still in my collection now. I will add more as days go by or when I specifically remember the title or author of books that I have read.Please let me know what you think about my library and all suggestions and reviews about new books that you find interesting are welcome for sure. Happy reading!PS: I am also following a daily bible reading schedule.

Home Loans and Auto Loans
2008-01-01 03:53:00
Typically the purchase of a house is normally financed by home loans through a finance company. Even when we could afford a house with cold hard cash, it is not profitable to buy one with cash. The rationale behind this is we would be able to off-set the interest payable on the home loan with the higher rate of return on investment if we were to instead invest the cash in a higher paying investment portfolio such as a mutual fund. Nevertheless, what if one had invested unwisely and therefore need some credit offers to refinance our housing loan to get cash out? Bad Credit Offers can be a source of help in this regards. The company brings you to reputable and trusted finance institutions to cater for bad credit loans. The company has experienced staff and up to date information on the financial institutions giving the best offers in the US. Since there are many auto loan companies, it pays that we do some planning before embarking on such a purchase. Look for auto loans that are fl ...

Always guiding and taking care of me, spiritually, emotionally and physically. 2) What career would you like to try for a year?
