A Cow's Milk

Milk is our first food. Since I was old enough to remember, I always loved ice cream. But as I grew up, i noticed that my stomach got upset after I ate my favorite dessert. Soon, I had diarrhea and cramps nearly every time I had a bowl of ice cream. Eventually, I lost all my interest in the once-tempting treat. But I know that I am not alone. Millions of people have lactose intolerance- an inability to comfortably digest moderate amounts of dairy products like milk and ice cream. An advice donation page for lactose intolerance treatment will really be handy. I was taught to modify my eating habits and take digestive aids especially when heavy craving of anything dairy gets me restless. With digestive aids, I don't necessarily have to give-up my favorite food just because I cannot tolerate dairy products. However, if I watch what I eat, I may find that my body can do the job all by itself. Perhaps, all I need is discipline.

Common Forms

The world is very diverse. What does it mean to accept a person? It means that you view that person as a person of worth. It means that you like him as he is and can respect his rights to be dissimilar from you. It means that you allow him to possess his or her own feelings about matters. It means that you accept his or her attitudes of the moment, no matter how they may differ from yours. Although it is highly rewarding to accept another person just as he is, it is not easy to do so. If you can begin to control critical remarks  where before you freely stated them, especially when you don't like his or her suggestions of mothers day gift ideas as an example, you may well have taken the first step toward full acceptance of that person. An important prerequisite to accepting others at face value is one's ability to accept himself just as he is. Self acceptance enables us to become more aware of other people. We will become more content to be ourselves and to let others be themselves.

Changing Bad Habits

Bad habits never do you good. When I was younger, I love to go to questionable places with friends. I do not pay attention to my studies or even cared in doing assignment research like science papers about pure argan oil. I do not follow advice from my family and teachers. I used to be very easy-go-lucky. I never gave my studies a thought until I got low grades. I was dismayed. When my parents learned about my attitude and my grades, they got angry. They told me to straighten out for my own sake. I can only blame myself for doing such things. I wanted to break that bad habit. And I know I can do this only with God's help and with my own determination. I talked to my friends later on about my desire to do better in my studies. I also asked my teachers to help me. I soon made a daily schedule which includes visiting the library during my spare time. I also refrained from joining questionable peers again.  Later in college I engage in religious activities to vary my everyday routine. Fortunately, my efforts to change for the better reaped great harvests.

Being Human

Why is it so hard, when we have really blown it, to take responsibility for our actions: to tell the truth and make a simple apology. You only hurt people when you tell them the truth that they cannot accept or respect. Perhaps this is the same idea that makes us defensive in making mistakes. Might some of our resistance to telling the truth stem back to our childhood inability to explain ourselves? Does blowing it as an adult tap into our old anxiety of feeling humiliated by a finger-pointing mom or dad?  Surely there must be a way for handling our mess-ups than disavowing them. Maybe we can learn to accept and process our occasional mistakes as normal part of living.  When confronted with the awareness that we've blown it, we can practice the courage of imperfection. We are human beings and are not perfect gods. Our hair even gets tangled no matter how we hard apply argan oil everyday. This is similar to how we make error in our daily lives. Perhaps our ego needs a budge of humility and courage too.
