FaceBook Parenting
Children today are so spoiled by their parents today.
If you think that by sheltering them from the realities of life, you are being a good parent, you are dead wrong. In fact, you are killing your children!!
How?
You are slowly killing your children by not equipping them with the necessary life skills to live independently. You are showing them the path to a miserable life by not letting them face adversity and teaching them an attitude of entitlement, that everything that they want, they can get without having to work for it.
You are killing your children by not showing them what actual life is about, with all the mundane things like doing laundry, housework, cooking and other day-to-day things that you need to do. There is no genie that just shows up and everything is done!!
Many famous people have died young because they have not been taught to live with adversity, to face the realities of life, the ugly side of daily living. It is because of this that many of them become deluded and try to run away from it and turn to crack and other drugs to mask the sufferings.
A little hard work and a adversity will not kill anyone. It is a challenge to develop the skills necessary to live a more fulfilled life.
God will not give you a challenge that He does not think that you can overcome and learn from it.
So, parents - think about how you are slowly killing your children with your indulgence, stupidity and laziness.
I applaud the courage of the father above, who knows what are the important things in life.

We Are Young - Glee
Be bold - you are only young once.
Be bold to pursue your dreams,
Be courageous in the face of adversity,
Be compassionate in the midst of all the suffering,
Be grateful for being the one and only you...

The Joy Of Books
At night, when nobody is around, the books in a book-store stage their own dance party.
What a beautiful symphony of joy!!

Living in a Grateful World
Be grateful to those who have hurt or harmed you,
For they have reinforced your determination.
Be grateful to those who have deceived you,
For they have deepened your insight.
Be grateful to those who have hit you,
For they have reduced your karmic obstacles.
Be grateful to those who have abandoned you,
For they have taught you to be independent.
Be grateful tot hose who have made you stumble,
For they have strengthened your ability.
Be grateful to those who have denounced you,
For they have increased your wisdom and concentration.
Be grateful to those who have made you firm and resolute
And helped in your achievements.
- from the Teachings of Ven. Master Chin Kung

Flying Men Over Manhattan
Watch this video and be astounded to see 3 people flying over Mnahattan, New York.
What looked to be three people were spotted flying around the skies of lower Manhattan last Friday, causing a lot of double-takes and dropped jaws from onlookers.
But while it appeared to be a sight straight out of a comic book, it was actually a clever bit of viral marketing for this week's upcoming film "Chronicle."
Those aren't people in the air, but some very intricately designed radio-controlled airplanes.
Awesome!!
