Joy's Write-a-long

  The author emphasizes on the powerful impact of giving; how it impacts the giver more than the receiver and how giving positively can change your life for the better.  GIVING – A POWERFUL ACT Giving is such a powerful act that even the smallest act of giving can create a big impact.  Giving does not only mean donating money. While being able to financially support those in need is truly wonderful, giving extends far beyond monetary donations. There are many tangible and intangible things we can offer; our time, kindness, encouragement, attention, and compassion that can create a powerful impact on the receiver. Giving does not only transform the life of the one who receives, it often impacts the giver even more, especially when the giver has no material expectations or favors in return. It brings a deep sense of peace, fulfillment, and happiness that money alone cannot buy. This is why the saying holds true : “The more you give, the more you get.” Let us look di...

  The author emphasizes the importance of protecting one’s inner peace, explaining that true peace comes from processing anger and jealousy, in a healthy way, one that prevents hatred and allows peace to take root in the heart, and if it is not processed in the right way, this anger and jealousy will create hatred that is equivalent to "A Silent Cancer".  From the image above, which one do you prefer.  Obviously, everyone prefers the Inner Peace image, but do we consciously make an effort to eradicate anger and jealousy from our hearts in the most healthy way? Anger and Jealousy: The Silent Cancer That Eats Away at Your Life Anger and jealousy are natural human emotions. Everyone experiences them at some point. However, when these emotions are left unchecked, nurtured, or justified repeatedly, they begin to behave like a slow-growing cancer, quietly damaging relationships, clouding judgment, and destroying inner peace. Much like cancer in the body, anger and jealousy ofte...

  The author highlights the importance of “Me Time” and how it empowers individuals to relax, reflect, and recharge. The author encourages everyone to intentionally schedule regular Me Time for themselves. The Power of “Me Time”: A Path to Self-Healing and Self-Awareness.   It is not a path to Selfishness. In this world that constantly demands our attention, personal time often becomes a luxury rather than a necessity. “Me time” is not about escaping responsibilities, it is about reconnecting with oneself. Intentional moments of solitude allow space for healing, reflection, and honest self-assessment.   What Me Time Really Means Me time is deliberate, uninterrupted time spent focusing inward. It is a time for purposeful rest and self reflection. This time allows individuals to slow down, process emotions, and reconnect with their physical, mental, and emotional needs. It is a sign of Leadership.   All leaders take their “me time” break and they take it ser...

  The author wants to remind everyone that our brain is so powerful that we can create our future, heal our body and be happy just the way we want to be.  This is a reminder that God has created us so uniquely and given our bodies the power to heal by itself just by our very thoughts.  The author is ever so thankful to God for firstly creating us in His own image and giving us the power to change our situations by our thoughts using the most powerful organ that He has given us "The Brain" Train your Brain: What you think about, you bring about! Did you know that God has created each and every one of us uniquely and each cell in our body is meticulously created to form our body along with each and every organ in our body.  Each human body is a masterpiece of creation by our very own Creator, the living Almighty God. One organ stands as the "Command Center": the Human Brain.   Each organ speaks  to one another, and our brain sends messages to every part of ...

  The author was inspired to write this after listening to a Christian Radio Program by Chuck Swindoll  who is a Pastor and Bible teacher at Insight for Living in the United States of America. We typically know the names of famous artists in the world but what about the unsung Hero's in our lives, or do we even have at least 3-5 people whose names we can call out to as our Unsung Hero's. Time to Self-Check: How wealthy are you, really! When we hear the word  wealth , our minds often go straight to money, net worth, properties, assets. stocks, or luxury.   But what if I told you that real wealth has nothing to do with your bank account? Don’t get me wrong.   Money is a necessity for providing things for your living.   But wealth? What if the truest form of richness lies in the quality of your relationships? Your attitude and the positive outcome you generate in your surrounding.  You Are Richer Than a Billionaire If you can name 3 to 5 people in y...

It’s been a while since the author last wrote on her blog—not because she didn’t want to, but because life has been full of exciting developments and it took a lot of her time. She takes her writing seriously and didn’t want to post just anything; she wanted to share something meaningful, something that truly resonates with her heart. What follows is a reflection she’s been holding onto for some time—thoughts she’s finally ready to put into words.   Midlife Awakening: Why Life Truly Began at 50 When I turned 50, a few friends who already reached the milestone smiled and said something unexpected: “ You’ve just entered the best part of your life.” I remember thinking to myself,  Really ? What’s so great about turning 50? All I could see at the time was aging. Health issues starting to creep in. Slowing down. The looming approach of retirement. The pressure to save more, plan more, worry more. I felt like I was stepping into the first chapter of a midlife crisis -boredom, uncert...
