THE MAYONNAISE JAR AND TWO CUPS OF COFFEE
THE MAYONNAISE JAR
When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough,
remember this story about a mayonnaise jar and two cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class with several items in front of him.
When the class began, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to
fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly
and the pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up
everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full and the students responded with a unanimous
"yes."
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar
represents your life. The golf balls are the important things--God, your family, your children,
your health, your friends, and your favorite passions--things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
"The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car.
"The sand is everything else -- the small stuff.
"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the
golf balls.
"The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never
have room for the things that are important to you.
"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time
to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time
to clean the house and fix the disposal.
"Take care of the golf balls first--the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is
just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your
life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."

女性健康食品
我們都聽過乳癌,但不知如何預防? 現在有小小秘方，乳癌一直都是女性朋友的隱憂，想想萬一要把最能讓人注目的部位切除掉，那是多麼難過的事啊！不過你知道嗎？有個水果可是可以讓你跟乳癌說拜拜? 加拿大氰化物大學研究 人員發現，蕃茄汁內所含的蕃茄紅素具有防止乳癌的效果，特別是像蕃茄醬、蕃茄汁或是蕃茄湯等經過加工的蕃茄食品的蕃茄紅素特別容易為人體吸收，對降低罹患乳癌的效果比直接生吃蕃茄還要好。如果達到預防效果每天須吸收五毫克的蕃茄紅素。

可預防血管硬化、腦中風、痛風、心肌梗塞、癌症等現代文明病。
Banana, What a fruit!
(Passed from YY Wong)
After reading THIS, you'll NEVER look at a banana in the same way again!
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must-add to our daily diet.
Depression:

>> > bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into
>> > serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel
>> > happier.
PMS:
>> > Forget the pills -- eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood
>> > glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
Anemia :
>> > High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the

Blood Pressure:

>> > making it the perfect way to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and

Brain Power:

Constipation:
>> > High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel

Hangovers:
>> > One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake,
>> > sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the

>> > re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn:
>> > Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from
>> > heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.
Morning Sickness:

Mosquito bites:

Nerves:

白衣服放久了變黃，怎麼辦？
白衣服放久了..變黃怎麼辦?
今天, 看了日本電視節目『生活一級棒』
生活大師教導了一個方法, 大家不妨試試
方法:
1.買一把菠菜, 經過熱水滾燙後, 菠菜撈起來只留下滾湯待用
2.將有黃污漬的地方放入菠菜水中搓揉, 在浸泡10分鐘.
在以正常的洗衣程序洗淨衣物.完成。衣物又恢復潔白了!
原理:
衣服上的黃污漬成分主要是蛋白質,
而菠菜經過水煮後會釋出可溶解蛋白質的成分.
真是好方法 , 不但有燙青菜可以吃 , 還可以洗衣服

A meaningful poem
When an old lady died in the geriatric ward of a small hospital
near
Dundee , Scotland
Later, when the nurses were going through her meager possessions, they
found this poem. Its quality and content so impressed the staff that copies
were made and distributed to every nurse in the hospital. One nurse took her
copy toIreland
The old lady's sole bequest to posterity has since appeared in the
Christmas edition of the News Magazine of the North Ireland Association for Mental Health. A slide presentation has also been made based on her simple, but
eloquent, poem. And this little old Scottish lady, with nothing left to
give to the world, is now the author of this "anonymous" poem winging across
the Internet:
Crabby Old Woman
What do you see, nurses?
What do you see?
What are you thinking
When you're looking at me?
A crabby old woman,
Not very wise,
Uncertain of habit,
With faraway eyes?
Who dribbles her food
And makes no reply
When you say in a loud voice,
"I do wish you'd try!"
Who seems not to notice
The things that
you do,
And forever is losing
A stocking or shoe?
Who, resisting or not,
Lets you do as you will,
With bathing and feeding,
The long day to fill?
Is that what you're thinking?
Is that what you see?
Then open your eyes, nurse,
You're not looking at me.
I'll tell you who I am
As I sit here so still,
As I do at your bidding,
As I eat at your will.
I'm a small child of ten
With a father and mother,
Brothers
and sisters,
Who love one another.
A young girl of sixteen
With wings on her feet
Dreaming that soon now
A lover she'll meet.
A bride soon at twenty,
My heart gives a leap,
Remembering the vows
That I promised to keep.
At twenty-five now,
I have young of my own,
> Who need me to guide
> And a secure happy home
>
> A woman of thirty,
> My young now grown fast,
>
> Bound to each other
> With ties that should last.
>
> At forty, my young sons
> Have grown and are gone,
> But my man's beside me
> To see I don't mourn.
>
> At fifty once more,
> Babies play round my knee,
> Again we know children,
> My loved one and me.
>
> Dark days are upon me,
> My husband is dead,
> I look at the future,
> I shudder with dread.
>
> For my young are all rearing
> Young of their own,
> And I think of the years
>
> And the love that I've known.
>
> I'm now an old woman
> And nature is cruel;
> 'Tis jest to make old age
> Look like a fool.
> The body, it crumbles,
> Grace and vigor depart,
> There is now a stone
> Where I once had a heart.
>
> But inside this old carcass
> A young girl still dwells,
> And now and again,
> My battered heart swells.
>
> I remember the joys,
> I remember the pain,
> And I'm loving and living
>
> Life over again.
>
> I think of the years
> All too few, gone too fast,
> And accept the stark fact
> That nothing can last.
>
> So open your eyes, people,
> Open and see,
> Not a crabby old woman;
> Look closer . . . see ME!!
Remember this poem when you next meet an old person who you might
brush aside without looking at the young soul within . . we will all,
one day, be there, too!

My heart gives a leap,
Remembering the vows
That I promised to keep.
At twenty-five now,
I have young of my own,
> Who need me to guide
> And a secure happy home
>
> A woman of thirty,
> My young now grown fast,
>
> Bound to each other
> With ties that should last.
>
> At forty, my young sons
> Have grown and are gone,
> But my man's beside me
> To see I don't mourn.
>
> At fifty once more,
> Babies play round my knee,
> Again we know children,
> My loved one and me.
>
> Dark days are upon me,
> My husband is dead,
> I look at the future,
> I shudder with dread.
>
> For my young are all rearing
> Young of their own,
> And I think of the years
>
> And the love that I've known.
>
> I'm now an old woman
> And nature is cruel;
> 'Tis jest to make old age
> Look like a fool.
> The body, it crumbles,
> Grace and vigor depart,
> There is now a stone
> Where I once had a heart.
>
> But inside this old carcass
> A young girl still dwells,
> And now and again,
> My battered heart swells.
>
> I remember the joys,
> I remember the pain,
> And I'm loving and living
>
> Life over again.
>
> I think of the years
> All too few, gone too fast,
> And accept the stark fact
> That nothing can last.
>
> So open your eyes, people,
> Open and see,
> Not a crabby old woman;
> Look closer . . . see ME!!
Remember this poem when you next meet an old person who you might
brush aside without looking at the young soul within . . we will all,
one day, be there, too!
