There are some days that just get bad and worse and despite one’s efforts to check or improve on performance. For instance there’s a day I woke up to find two of my chicks dead and a couple others injured, vividly from being...

B Sorry to hear about all that—you really went through a lot in one day. Sometimes everything just hits at once. Life can be unpredictable like that. But even when things go wrong, it’s still up to us how we respond. Just because bad things happen doesn’t mean...

No matter how busy you may be at work or business if the call of your presence at home is needed, you must leave everything behind you and check what your family needs you. A family member might get sick or someone at home needs...

B @cacay1 Exactly my point — the fact that “at least they’ll visit” just proves what you really are to your work. You’re just an employee, and that’s the bare minimum for an employee. No more, no less. Work will never love you like family does even if they build...

B Amen! When you get sick or burned out from work, the most they’ll probably do is visit once, if at all. Then when you die, they’ll attend your wake or burial—and that’s it. After a few days, you’re replaced. At the end of the day, it’s always been—and will...

Do you think silence is better than explaining your feelings or words.. I mean to say that if I am right, is explaining better or silence. My point of view is that silence is better than explaining any point to other person, I...

B It really depends. There are times when silence is the better choice, but there are also moments when you need to speak up. You have to know for yourself when to stay quiet and when to say something. It takes wisdom—and I guess the right perspective—to know...

Things that keep you cozy. A nice warm blanket so soft to the touch. A cuddle with your spouse or a child. A nice fire place. How about hot chocolate or hot coffee. Your home all warm. A nice soft hoodie.

B I miss that! When I was a kid, my mom used to buy us sugarcane. We didn’t juice it—we just chewed on it and enjoyed its natural sweetness. It was so good! It’s been a long time since I’ve had one, though sugarcane juice is widely available here.
