POWER

The central attribute that determines where children are positioned on the scales of poverty and right is power. Power describes the ability to shape one's life and one's environment. The lack of power is one of the main barriers that prevents children, families, communities or nations from escaping cycles of poverty. This can be overcome by a stratergy of empowerment: " The process of enhencing the capacity of individuals or groups to make choices and to transform these choices into desired actions and outcomes"

" He called out to them, "Friends, haven't you any fish?" "No," They answered. He said, " Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

The sower

" Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 

But then the sun came up and fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants, so they did not bear grain. Still the other seed fell on good soil, it came up, grew and produced a crop, multiplying thirty,sixty, or even a hundred times."

The Parables

The parables!

What do you think?

If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off?

And if he finds it,

I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off.

A gentle Answer

 A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. The tongue of the wise commends knowlege, but the mouth of the fool gushes folly.  The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life, but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit. A fool spurns his father's discipline but whoever heeds correction shows prudence. The house of the righteous contains great treasure, but the income of the wicked brings them trouble. The lips of the wise spread knowledge, not so the hearts of fools.

Absolutely beautiful things

I were so busy with some stuff and never had time to blog but today want to. I always like beatiful things, here look at some good photos that inspires home designs, from kitchen to bedrooms.

Invitations of wisdom and of folly

I stumbled for a while, not blogging, ohh, but, anyway, i have some good words for you today, just take a time, read this;

Wisdom has built her house; she has hewn out its seven pillars. She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine;she has also set her table. She has sent out her maids, and she calls from the highest point of the city.  "Let all who are simple come in here!" she says to those who lack judgement.

 " Come, eat my food and drink the wine i have mixed. Leave your simple ways and you will live; walk in the way of understanding. " Whoever corrects a mocker ivites insult; whoever rebukes a wicked man incurs abuse. Do not rebuke a mocker or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man and he will love you. Instruct a wise man and he will add to his learning.

"If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer"

A common destiny for all

I have seen something else under the sun:

The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favour to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.

Moreever, no man knows when his hour will come: As fish are cought in a cruel net, or birds are taken in a snare, so men are trapped by evil times that fall unexpectedly upon them.

The Science of a Good Marriage

After her divorce, New York Times health columnist Tara Parker-Pope scoured the available research on coupling — zoology, evolutionary psychology, clinical studies — to determine the formula for enduring love. She shares her findings in the new book For Better: The Science of a Good Marriage, a clearheaded, stats-driven look at which qualities comprise lasting love. The book is meant for couples wondering if they'll make it to their golden anniversary, but it should be required reading for anyone looking to up her odds on happily ever after.

MC: Let's cut to the chase — what do we write in our online profile to ensure a good match?

TP: It's not what you write, but what he writes. According to studies, for low divorce risk, you're looking for someone over 25, who finished college — because if he dropped out, he'll quit other things, too — and who grew up with both parents, or one parent in a long subsequent marriage — especially if you didn't. When the wife is a child of divorce, the couple's chances of divorce go up 59 percent; when both partners' parents are divorced, your odds jump 189 percent.

MC: Is there really such a thing as a chemical connection?

TP: Yes. One famous study discovered that a woman uses scent to choose a mate, sniffing for a set of genes called MHC that complements her own, to give her offspring the best chance of survival. That also means that any woman on hormonal contraception, like the Pill, can't accurately find her MHC complement because her biological instincts are blunted. So if you're making a long-term relationship decision, you might want to use an alternative birth control for at least six months. Because when you make the wrong MHC call, you're not only more likely to be unhappy in your marriage, you're also more likely to cheat.

MC: Does chemistry really have such a hold on us?

TP: It seems to. When women are ovulating, they instinctively dress more provocatively. And when you fall in love, you are literally high on dopamine. So here's where our instincts can fail us: You may regret any decisions made during the first rush of romance because you're basically experiencing a major mental health crisis.

 

MC: How can we be sure we'll match up sexually in the long term?

TP: You could date by demographic. The General Social Survey, conducted by the University of Chicago every two years, has found that rich and poor people have more sex than middle-class people; Jews and agnostics have more sex than Christians; the politically active have more sex than those who are apolitical, though extreme liberals have more sex than extreme conservatives. And smokers and drinkers have more sex than those who abstain from these other quote-unquote vices.

MC: Any easy ways to rule out a guy?

TP: Beware the boyfriend you never fight with. One study followed newlyweds over a three-year period, and many who fought a lot in the beginning were happier after three years, while those who avoided conflict were headed for divorce. And it may seem obvious, but if a guy ever rolls his eyes at you, even when accompanied by nice words or laughter, that is bad news. It's a spontaneous physical expression of contempt, a big predictor of divorce.

MC: Why do we fall for jerks like that?

TP: MRI studies show that the chemical storm of infatuation is strikingly similar to drug addiction and obsessive-compulsive disorder. That said, though biology drives us, experience shapes us. Tolerating a bad guy for a long time probably says more about your family background or past relationships than your biology.

MC: And what if our standards are just too high?

TP: That's a good thing! New research out of the University of North Carolina contradicts your mother's theory that marriages fail because expectations are too high. In fact, they tend to be met by a marriage — so if yours are low, you'll have a marriage without good communication, romance, or passion. If they're high, there's an excellent chance you and your mate will live up to them, and hopefully live happily ever after.
