Saving is one of the ancient ways to survive. You’ll never know what will happen in the future and only those who have something left behind can surpass the challenge. In this fast paced world, the need to plan 5 steps ahead is a must. Learning how to save is tantamount to learning how to live.
As early as possible, children should learn how to save especially when it comes to money. Parents can teach them by buying their first piggy bank and encouraging them to place some coins in there every time they got one. Training them to save for whatever they want to want buy will develop their budgeting skills and would eventually learn getting something would always require effort and hard work.
This method of discipline wouldn’t be only applicable to saving money but to everything that they own. It is not about hoarding but keeping in mind that these things aren’t worthy to be placed on the trash because someday it will serve an important purpose.
Now, I can't wait to teach my 16 months old Sam. But I have to wait the time that she can comprehend what I am going to teach her. :)

It is not possible to care for your baby or your partner if you feel neglected, overstressed and overtired. The most important person in your baby’s life is you. Figuring out how to meet your baby’s needs take time, energy and love, but you also have to get your share of nurturing. For me, the hardest part of being a first-time mom was when I needed to wake up in the middle of the night for feedings. I am so glad that I have passed that stage.
I understand that a full night’s sleep is next to impossible during the first months of my baby’s life, which is why; I rest whenever I can. I tried to nap or relax when my baby naps. I make sure that I am eating well-balanced, nutritious foods to maintain my energy. I have healthy snacks of fruits, juices, nuts, cheese, and yogurt. After childbirth, getting my body back into shape is also impossible. It probably takes a few more months to lose that extra weight.
Chinese people, if not all, but most of them rely on Feng Shui. Feng Shui literally means “wind and water,” the elements that sustain life. Regardless of their school, geomancers invariably assert that feng shui is an exact study of the laws and process of nature. It is rooted in the belief that everything that exists has an energy field that can be harnessed to man’s advantage.
On the other hand, the non-Chinese's people, specifically Filipinos, some of us believe on
psychic reading. Some of them, before they could decide whatever plans they have, they first consult it to a person who claimed that they could foresee the future. However, there are also people who are curious about the people who have six senses. They wanted to try their credibility if they could really read or foresee their future.
The usual things that they wanted to know in the future are money, career, love life, their lucky numbers, their compatible partner in life, the suitable business for you, and more. I have not tried to go to a psychic reader, so I am not sure whether the psychic reader will also tell the bad luck that coming on your way.
Anyhow, for me, the only person who could tell and knows our future is the one sitting above. If you trust HIM, then you are in the right way. Trials will always come to our lives, and it is us and no one else will work for it, so we can overcome these trials, and prayers are the best weapon to conquer all the trials in life.
