The 50-Percent Theory of Life

posted by lichad on Sat 31 of Jul, 2010 [05:24 UTC]


I believe in the 50-percent theory. Half alexander wang shoes on sale the time things are better than normal; the other half, they are worse. I believe life is a pendulum swing. It takes time and experience to understand what normal is, and that gives me the perspective to deal with the surprises of the future.
Let's benchmark the parameters: Yes, I will die. I've dealt with the deaths of both parents, a best friend, a beloved boss and cherished pets. Some of these deaths have been violent, before my eyes, or slow and agonizing. Bad stuff, and it belongs at the bottom of the scale.
Then sacs a main there are those high points: romance and marriage to the right person; having a child and doing those Dad things like coaching my son's baseball team, paddling around the creek in the boat while he's swimming with the dogs, discovering his compassion so deep it manifests even in his kindness to snails, his imagination so vivid he builds a spaceship from a scattered pile sacs main of Legos.
But there is a vast meadow of life in the middle, where the bad and the good flip-flop acrobatically. This is what convinces me to believe in the 50-percent theory.
One spring I planted corn too early in a bottomland so flood-prone that neighbors laughed. I felt chagrined at the wasted effort. Summer turned brutal — the worst heat wave and drought in my lifetime. The air-conditioner died, the well went dry, the marriage ended, the job lost, the money gone. I was living lyrics from a country tune — music I loathed. Only a sacs mains surging Kansas City Royals team, bound for their first World Series, buoyed my spirits.
Looking back on that horrible summer, I soon understood that all succeeding good things merely offset the bad. Worse than normal wouldn't last long. I am owed and savor the halcyon times. They reinvigorate me for the next nasty surprise and offer assurance that I can thrive. The 50 percent theory even helps me see hope beyond my Royals' recent slump, sac femme a field of struggling rookies sown so that some year soon we can reap an October harvest.
Oh, yeah, the corn crop? For that one blistering summer, the ground moisture was just right, planting early allowed pollination Mango ice' blog before heat withered the tops, and the lack of rain spared the standing corn from floods. That winter my crib overflowed with corn — fat, healthy three-to-a-stalk ears filled with kernels from heel to tip — while my neighbors' fields yielded only brown, empty husks.
Although plantings past may have fallen below women's waterproof jacket the 50-percent expectation, and they probably will again in the future, I am still sustained by the crop that flourishes during the drought.zfm

Suppose someone gave you a pen

posted by lichad on Sat 31 of Jul, 2010 [05:24 UTC]


Suppose someone gave you sac à main femme a pen — a sealed, solid-colored pen.
You couldn't see how much ink it had.
It might run dry after the first few tentative words or last just long enough to sac a main femmes create a masterpiece (or several) that would last forever and make a difference in the scheme of things.
You don't know before you begin.
Under the rules of the game, you really never know.
You have to take a chance!
Actually, no rule sac pas cher of the game states you must do anything. Instead of picking up and using the pen, you could leave it on a shelf or in a drawer where it will dry up, unused.
But if you do decide to use it, what would you do with it? How would you play the game?
Would you plan and plan before you ever wrote a word?
Would your plans be so extensive that you never even got to the writing?
Or would you take the pen in hand, plunge right in and just do it, struggling to keep up with the twists and turns of sac main pas cher the torrents of words that take you where they take you?
Would you write cautiously and carefully, as if the pen might run dry the next moment, or would you pretend or believe (or pretend to believe) that the pen will write forever and proceed accordingly?
And of what would nike shox on sale you write: Of love? Hate? Fun? Misery? Life? Death? Nothing? Everything?
Would you write to please just yourself? Or others? Or yourself by writing for others?
Would your strokes be tremblingly timid or brilliantly bold? Fancy with discount nike shox a flourish or plain?
Would you even write? Once you have the pen, no rule says you have to write. Would you sketch? Scribble? Doodle or draw?
Would you stay in or on the lines, or see no lines at all, even if they were there? Or are they? There's a lot to think about here, isn't there?
Now, suppose someone gave you Blue alien' blog a life.zfm

happiness is within your grasp

posted by lichad on Sat 31 of Jul, 2010 [05:24 UTC]



Ke Yunlu once said: the world has wholesale nike shox a lot of good things, eat eat a very fragrant. Eight eat dinner, and must have not eaten enough, the next still want to eat. However, if it must have something good, insisted on eating one to eat very much bread into 11 sub-saturation, or even stays in uncomfortable, people eat wounded, even tired. The same feelings can not be required to produce tired of each puma shoes on sale other.
Now the family, many men and women friends are looking for a happy life with his so-called, complaining that their own immediate well-being can not be given, always thinking of an unrealistic dream, and even some are looking for a happy life, in fact, well-being by your side.
I remember the Nobel Literature Prize winner George Bernard Shaw said: "At this very moment on Earth, about 20000 individuals fit to be your life partner, depends on which one you first puma sneakers for cheap met, if the ideal companion in the second before the appearance of front of a person you have developed a great friend Xiang Xi, the deep mutual trust relationship, then the latter will become your good friend, but if you front a people do not cultivate deeper relationships, feelings it is easy to waver, change of heart, until you partner with these ideals, one of the candidates have a strong affection, is the happy beginning of the end of wandering. "
Love do not need to rely on the efforts of a person, just to rely on "encounters" is God's arrangement, but "continue to love a person" would depend on "efforts" in the business of love, the smooth puma sneakers functioning of the elements of that communication, understanding, , inclusion and self-made (to face the temptation to be self-made). There are many people always the "fortune" by the confusion and distress, ideas non-stop desire constantly chasing dispersed, while forgetting the ability to cultivate their emotional well-being is the key.
So do not go to ask in the end who is my mr.right, but to ask that in front of partner relationship, to what extent I can work and grow to what extent, if there is no ability to cultivate a business well-being, even if true mr.right appear in your side, happiness will still be missed, but live in the hesitation and regret them, is not that many "love nothing disease" encounter with the mind do?
If you now have a companion accompany Nike rift long-term, do not hesitate to casually half-hearted manner, and we are not always easy to detect emotions in a trap, is the "next of kin of Health slow humiliated" that is, the iron law of economics, "law of diminishing marginal benefit "The longer with you people, the easier it numb and ignored, while the fresh," fortune "always so lovely and moving.
In the emotional approach, it is inevitable there is friction and unintentional injury, but on the offending add up the number of its own greatest number of people, of course, is with us the longest and most intimate people. The new love it, but also had yet to have offended you the opportunity, coupled with his deliberate to please, so to see how a new love how cute, how old love to see how annoying. But do not forget, new love, who is always uncertain unknowns, old love who is a rare sense of familiarity to determine the sense of trust. Do not casually in Astral lovers'blog the accident, "fortune" in the lost himself misplaced a happy warm hands.
So, George Bernard Shaw, then, is to remind the lovers do not get too into a dead end in only to find that, should the spirit of being used in the ability to learn to operate, but also to remind us to "take Yipiao 3000 drowning drink" if lucky enough to find a rare partner, would not have half-hearted, because we never know when life will encounter some 20000 of them, so Tomoyoshi xifu, live in the present.
Fate is to say - though there are many people throughout the world, but in rain to accompany you home late at night, in fact only one.
Well-being of people who are good people forget that they had given anything, but always remember what someone else had their own ... ...
Search for happiness is not as good ladies fleece jacket intentions of operating happiness, cherish everything we have now, some things lost can never find a non-return. In fact, happiness is within your grasp!zfm

Several years ago

posted by lichad on Sat 31 of Jul, 2010 [05:23 UTC]


Several years ago, Iris Arc Crystal, a company achat dofus I co-founded with Francesca Patruno, experienced a 1)lull in business. We had recently hired several new employees and hoped that the 2)slowdown was only temporary. However, in the meantime, we had work enough for only four days of the week. So, instead of letting 20 percent of our work force go or sending them home one achat kamas day per week, we decided that we would keep everyone on the 3)payroll for the entire week, working from Monday through Thursday, and taking Fridays to do service projects in our hometown of Santa Barbara.
I remember phoning acheter kamas several service agencies to find out what was needed in the community. We divided up into three groups and showed up where the agencies said they most needed us. The first week, the group was involved with went to a very old 4)Ukrainian gentleman’s home to do a total cleanup of his house and garden. When we arrived, an elderly woman greeted us at the door. We thought she was the wife, but it turned out she was the daughter. She was 75, and her father was 97! She told us what we needed acheter des kamas to do, and we proceeded to clean the house from floor to ceiling and clean up the yard as well. It is amazing how much work a group can get done when everyone is working together and being of service to someone who really needs the help. That gentleman’s house went The misuse of ants from dirt and 5)dinginess to a 6)sparkling clean palace by the time we finished at the end of the day.
The thing I most remember about that day, however, was not the great cleaning job that we did, but something altogether different. When we first walked into the house, I noticed the wonderful pen-and-ink drawings that 7)adorned the walls in all the rooms of the house. I asked the daughter who had done them. She said that her father had, and that he hadn’t 8)taken up art until he was 80 years old! I was 9)dumbfounded: these drawings were works of art that could have easily been hanging in a museum. At the time, I was in my women's fleece jacket early 30s and wanted to do something that would 10)utilize my creative and artistic capabilities more than being the president of a giftware company would allow. I had been feeling that it would be too difficult to make a change at this “advanced” stage of my life. Boy, did my limited belief system get expanded that afternoon!
We continued to do service projects around town for several more weeks, including completely painting someone’s home and setting up a large 11)bleacher for a horseback riding academy for physically challenged children. We had a lot of fun and did a lot of good. We ended up with the nickname The Arc Angels. In addition to the good feelings that came from helping fleece jacket women out others, the good feelings we shared as employees of a company that cared for both its employees and the community, went a long way toward creating a work atmosphere that was a joy to be part of.zfm

A Mother First

posted by lichad on Sat 31 of Jul, 2010 [05:22 UTC]




My mother did not work outside the home until later in life.fleece jackets And then she worked part-time in a bakery, waiting on people. She had me play where she could see me from the window, and often I would run inside to get a treat. At the time, she believed only her eyes were good enough to ensure my safety. She was always a mother first.
It was apparent to me,fleece jacket even at a young age, that wearing the title “mom” was my mother’s most important identity. I felt it in the way she looked at me, in her voice, and in her touch. From the beginning, almost to a fault, my mother offered softshell me the most important part of her besides her love—her attention. In spite of the problems tossed her way, the distractions, her own yearnings for more in her marriage and in her life, she at least had attained one goal—to be a mother first.
Sometimes she would go overboard with her enthusiasm. If it was cold, I had on too many sweaters and never could be without my earmuffs. If it was hot, and our apartment was always hot, she would flee to the beaches and hurry me into the ocean. She was a worrying mother, and when a famous family lost their child in a kidnapping, my mother put bottles waterproof jackets of coins on the window ledge so that, if they fell, she would be warned there was an intruder in the house. And if anyone threatened me at school with a schoolyard confrontation, my mother would square off with them if she found out. She was my protector, supporter, and the first person who ever made me feel as if I were special, as nowhere else in waterproof jacket life.
I can still hear her voice encouraging me on my first date. “Go,” she ordered. “Have fun,” she smiled. “And don’t let him touch you,” she warned. And when I was older, and a date had left me waiting while he went out on the boardwalk with someone else, my mother found him and later told me, “I gave him a piece of my mind.” Though mortified cheap softshell at the time by her behavior, it is a memory I cherish.
Later in life, I wondered how she could know so much about me that I did not know about myself. She knew even though my marks were average in school, that I was just bored but smart enough. She believed in me even when I made mistakes that caused others to shudder. She wanted me to be more than she had been, when I thought she was everything I softshell online wanted to be.
Recently my children—a son and daughter—came to visit. In their forties now, they are married and with children of their own. Both were tired and soon fell asleep, one on the couch, the other on the bed. Carefully, while they slept, I took some blankets and tucked them in, as I had done so many times when they were young. I took the telephone Paper flower off the receiver, so they would not be disturbed, lowered the shades, and for a precious moment, watched over them, grateful to be, just as my mother had been, a mother first.zfm

Please Help Me Get My Little Daughter Back!

Narrative re: Removal of Sabrina On April 3, 2005, Sabrina was born to Nancy Hey. She weighed 7 lb. 4 oz. Mother and baby were released from the hospital on April 5, 2005. On April 8, 2005, Ms. Hey took Sabrina to the pediatrician for a regular post-birth follow-up. The baby had lost weight (from 7lb. 4oz. to 6lb. 12oz.) so the pediatrician recommended supplementation with formula (Ms. Hey was nursing) and a follow-up visit several days later. Ms. Hey saw the pediatrician three more times after that initial visit. Although Sabrina’s weight only dropped to 6 lb. 10 oz., she did not exhibit a sustained weight gain.
As a result, on that third visit, the doctor who saw Ms. Hey and Sabrina indicated that Sabrina’s weight loss and lack of sustained weight gain was more significant than Ms. Hey had been led to believe and he instructed Ms. Hey to admit Sabrina to the hospital. So, on April 16, 2005, Sabrina and Ms. Hey were admitted to Virginia Hospital Center. Sabrina was admitted with a failure to thrive diagnosis. After increasing the amount of formula used to supplement Ms. Hey’s breast feeding, Sabrina gained weight. On April 19, Ms. Hey was visited by a social worker from the Arlington County Child Protective Services. On April 20, Ms. Hey and her live-in companion, Kit Slitor, (not the biological father of the baby) were compelled to sign a “Safety Plan” presented to them by the Arlington County CPS social worker. They were informed a refusal to sign would prevent the baby from being discharged. The following day, Ms. Hey and Sabrina were released from the hospital. On the date of release, Sabrina weighed 7 lb. 5 oz. On April 22, the social worker and one or more home nurses visited the family. The social worker returned the next day, Saturday, April 23; however, Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor refused her entry, stating they wanted a “time out” while they retained legal counsel (a letter to that effect was handed to the social worker). Over the weekend they sought, and by Monday morning they retained, an attorney who immediately attempted to contact the social worker. (Another attorney who is a friend had attempted to contact the social worker over the weekend.) Notwithstanding the fact that counsel managed to speak to the social worker sometime late Monday morning, the social worker went forward with a request for an Emergency Removal Order which was granted. The Order was executed that day, April 25, and Sabrina was placed in foster care. At the time of removal, Sabrina weighed 8 lb. 1 oz., a 12 oz. gain from April 21 the day on which Sabrina was released from the hospital. On May 2, the Court made a finding of abuse and neglect and ordered psychological evaluations for both Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor. Those evaluations, which were performed by individuals hired by the County, occurred over the course of the next two weeks. Following those evaluations, a Foster Care Service Plan was developed by the County. The Plan’s stated goal was “return home” and it imposed several obligations on the parents, all of which they have complied with. On July 5, the Foster Care Service Plan was presented to the Court and accepted. Although visits were occurring between Sabrina and Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor, they did not occur on a set, regular schedule. The visits that did take place, took place at the County offices and were only approximately one hour in duration and usually no more than twice a week, although some weeks there was only one visit. By early September, for all intents and purposes, the visits had ceased, because Sabrina had exhibited increasing signs of distress. At a follow-up hearing on October 25, the Court ordered that a home visit occur. That visit occurred three days later, on October 28, after which both sides submitted to the Court memoranda summarizing the visit. On November 14, the Court issued a letter ordering that visits continue to occur in the parents’ home. One such additional visit occurred, on November 23, approximately a month after the previous in-home visit. Those two visits are the only visits Ms. Hey had been able to participate in since late August/early September. Mr. Slitor, whom the County wanted to evaluate as the potential primary caretaker since Ms. Hey had been ruled out by the County as such, did have several short visits on his own in October and one in December. (It should be noted that Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor got married in October.) At a follow-up hearing in late November, the Court ordered both sides to submit a plan for facilitating the goal of return home, which both sides did. In mid-December, the Court informed both sides that it had accepted the plan submitted on behalf of Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor, which contemplated regular, frequent visits with increasing duration accompanied by instruction from a qualified home-based services provider. The Court ordered that all visitation cease until the new reunification process could begin with the new service providers. The Court also ordered that Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor be financially responsible for the services to be provided. Starting in January, that plan was implemented and the reunification process got underway. Initially, the service providers familiarized themselves with Sabrina and Sabrina with them. They then slowly and carefully reintroduced the parents to Sabrina in an effort to properly restart the attachment process. The visits occurred on a set schedule (3 days a week) in the parents’ home and, as time went on, the duration of the visits steadily increased. During these visits, the parents received parenting instruction and once a week they participated in a parent-infant therapy session. The amount of instruction provided by the home-based workers decreased as time went on. This process continued until approximately June 15, by which time Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor were spending more than 20 hours a week with Sabrina and even had had two supervised overnight visits with Sabrina. Notably, throughout this process, Sabrina did not exhibit any of the distress she previously exhibited which had led the County to essentially terminate visits. However, on June 15, the Court accepted the County’s proposed change in goal, put forth in March, from “return home” to “adoption”. This occurred notwithstanding the Court’s acknowledgment that significant progress had been made in the reunification process and that the parents had maintained consistent contact with Sabrina. A hearing on the County’s petition for termination of parental rights was scheduled for September 20, 21, and 22. However, on September 20, the parties agreed to the entry of an involuntary termination order. They also agreed upon continued visitation, albeit on a truncated scale (Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor now see Sabrina only every other week for three hours which primarily is the result of the foster parents having moved out of state), pending an appeal of both the change of goal and the termination to the Circuit Court for Arlington County. That appeal got underway in December 2006 and is scheduled to continue at least through April 24, 2007. In addition to the judicial action, the County issued, on June 20, 2005, an administrative finding against Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor of physical neglect and failure to thrive, assigning the highest possible level to its finding. As a result of this finding, Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor currently are subject to having their names appear on the Virginia Department of Social Services Child Abuse/Neglect Central Registry for a period of 18 years. Upon a request for an appeal, a local conference was held on November 30, 2005. The presiding official was the Deputy Director of Social Services for Arlington County. On December 6, 2005, the Deputy Director issued her decision which was to uphold the initial finding. Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor appealed this decision and, on June 21, 2006, that appeal was heard by a hearing officer designated by the Commissioner of the Virginia Department of Social Services. On September 1, 2006, the hearing officer issued his decision. In short, the hearing officer determined that the Agency (i.e., the County) failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence its contention that Sabrina met the criteria for a finding of physical neglect-failure to thrive and, accordingly, reversed the decision. As a result, Ms. Hey and Mr. Slitor are no longer subject to appearing on the Child Abuse/Neglect Central Registry. Despite having been exonerated in the administrative proceeding, the judicial action continues unresolved. On June 1st, 2007, Judge James Almand of the Fourth Circuit Court of Arlington County ruled to uphold the lower court’s ruling to terminate the parental rights of Nancy Hey, and to deny the petitions for custody filed by Sabrina’s stepfather Kit Slitor and maternal grandmother Louise Hey. We are appealed this decision to the Virginia Superior Court, but we have lost all visitation rights with our daughter.
