Healthy Mind, Body & Spirit

Having to move house can be a difficult and trying time. There are so many things to plan and do before the actual moving took place. What we need to do is not to worry but to take each matter one at time. We do not want to get easily upset when there are so many things yet to be done. A mind free of worries would make the transition much easier. Hmm… why am I writing about moving house?. Oh ya.

My older brother is moving back into the house. When he got married, he and his wife decided to move out and stay on their own. It was the wish of our mother that he could stay in the house to help out and also to provide company for her. However, since they decided to move out, there is nothing that we can do about it. Now, he told me that he plans to move in back to the house.

He also decided to renovate one of the rooms in our house to make it bigger. I guess he has a lot of things to bring back from his old house. Maybe he would need to use the removal services to bring all his things back here. There are many removal companies like MoveMe! that provides excellent moving services for those who need to move house like my brother. If my brother engages them, then I would not have to bend my back to help him out. Everything will be handled by the moving company. Looks like life in the house will change again.

This post is written from a guy’s perspective. Are diamonds a girl’s best friend? I love to see beautiful things but I do admit that I am not an expert in jewellery. I have seen many ladies who loves to wear gold jewellery. There are some who prefer to wear silver jewellery. Yes, my wife do wear jewellery at times. However, most of her jewellery are her wedding jewellery. I do not think that she has a diamond jewellery.

Okay, back to the issue of whether diamonds are a girl’s best friend. I think whoever agrees to the statement that diamonds are a girl’s best friend is out of his or her mind. I do not know why a girl wants to have a diamond as her best friend. Yes, I really don’t know how a diamond can be a friend. Would a diamond be able to talk, listen, share, or comfort you? I don’t think so. If that is the case, why would anyone make a diamond her best friend? I simply couldn’t understand it. And if ever that it is true diamonds are a girl’s best friend, then I pity the thousands of girls in this world. They are without best friends.

If someone tells me that diamonds are best gifts to a girl, I might agree with him. If you want to win a girl’s heart with beautiful diamond jewellery, by all means do so. Just be careful. If the girl only wants you because you can afford to buy her a diamond, then it is not worth to give to that girl. Give a diamond to the girl that truly deserves it. My wife deserves to receive a diamond. I am blessed to have a wonderful wife like her. She is truly worth more than a thousand diamonds in this world.

How do I get a healthy body? Well, one of the reasons is definitely eating homecook food. I was blessed with a SAHM (Stay At Home Mother) who cooks everyday for her family. It was her food that gives me the nutritions and energy I needed to grow healthy. Yes, there are times when the food may not be as tasty as I wished it could be but hey, it is healthier compared to the fast food out there. There would definitely be one vegetable and one main dish. And we have to eat lots of rice, the main contributor of carbohydrates which is the primary source of our energy.

My mother’s recipes are quite simple. I guess it is limited by our family financial means. Since we can’t afford expensive stuffs, the food we have are never the ones we always see in the high class restaurants. The ingredients can be found in our compound or garden. Yes, we planted most of our vegetables and plants. Our Family Recipies would include various ingredients like bamboo shoots, tapioca leaves, baby ferns, cucumbers, brinjals, chilli, and many others that we can grow in our garden.

Now, things has changed. The younger generation does not know how to cook. They prefer the readymade food that they can easily buy and eat. No more the hassle of preparing the ingredients and cooking the food themselves. I sincerely believes that the rising of cancer cases and other sickness is due to the change from homemade food to readymade food. So if you can prepare a homemade food, please do so. Of course you should try cook the food in a healthy way. At least you know the stuffs that you will be eating is still nutritious and good for you.
