When I reached my 40 years of age, Its funny how I remembered worrying about getting white hairs, face wrinkles, lower chance of having my figure back closer to where I was when I was younger, I got more curious about my health, career opportunities and a lot more.
I started looking some new products to maintain skin softness, nice hair, loose weight and medicines- vitamins to have a good health.There are some products that could really makes us look and feel good.But it never stopped me from worrying.
January 30, 2011, I had an experience which could be helpful to others too.
Its true that good product and vitamins and medicines really help to keep us stay young looking and vibrant..but accepting Jesus in my life and starting my bible journal..had taught me, that it is worrying that is really breaking me down.
Being at the 40's really gave me new experiences in life.Do others have these experiences too? What challenges have you faced or anyone that you know and how do they coped up with it?

I like to do that. Being carefree is like being worry free as Jesus have taught us.

I am just carefree of my everyday life,but I face all my problems squarely so that it could be settled right away,without waiting for its deadline.I hate to fall in line during a deadline and the systems of the office could be overloaded as
their computers could also be affected.

Oh that's a great and good way how you presenting God to others I wish I can also doing such way because I'm 46 which also known Jesus in my life but on personal witnessing not the way you have gots...
Actually your are right aside from smilling and be happy is a good medicine but the most powerful way is to know Jesus in our life because He change all of about our life from inside out.

Im a little shy in talking infront of so many people, however, i also have some experience in sharing infront of the congregation by singing. but everytime, it makes me perspire to the max..always nervous.
