Stress can’t be avoided totally and it is really a part in our life. No one of us is fully free from stress and it can either extremely pleasant or unpleasant to each and every one of us.

We can be free from stress but, it can be minimize and channeled for one’s growth and development through different strategies which may adopt in order to lessen the amount of stress in our lives.

Eating Breakfast Habitually

My countrymen the Filipinos usually eat three meals a day, which includes breakfast, lunch and supper. All of those meals need careful planning in order to meet the proper nutrition needed by our body.

Breakfast is one of the most important meals that need careful planning. Since it should be the heaviest meal of the day, we the parents or the housewives will make sure that they we will prepare foods that contain necessary nutrients to supply n our body. One mistake that is very commonly committed in every person nowadays is the skipping of breakfast or sometimes eating to light breakfast. Some people eat nothing but one or two pieces of bread with a cup of coffee or tea for breakfast because they are in hurry of going to work and many other things that needs to be done in that morning. Then time will come at about ten in the morning and they felt hungry then they wonder why.

We must always eat our breakfast especially our school children and those who are working because they need some energy for the whole day activities. They need to eat heavy breakfast if possible to feel energize and stay lively for the whole day. Eating good breakfast will make our children and skilled workers intelligent in everything they do.

There are two thing to be done in order that your family can eat breakfast habitually, first we should wake up early and second plan simple and easy to cook but have a balance menu. We must prepare foods that are rich in protein for such as eggs, cereal or bread and beverages and vitamin C is a good source and a day’s allowance assured.

Preparing for the most essential meal could not be expensive. Prepare protein foods, carbohydrates and fruits are simple things to prepare. The family can live happy, healthy and alert members. So we need to bear in mind that breakfast is the most necessary meal of the day.

Ways to Enjoy Students Life

In our generation today most of our students and children are facing on how to get rid of useless worry that causes the not to enjoy their lives being a student which is brought by the new generation and fast moving word.

We the parents or some of our teachers in school we need to encourage them or lead them to see what good is everyone. Tell them that every time they meet people, try to see what is good in them. It is not only a way of baiting friends but it is also a way of keeping them out of trouble. In other words, that no human being is completely evil. Think not of the sins of others but of the good things they have done for others. We all know that God is good and he created us equally because he really loves us. So, in return we must love what he has created. Teach them how to love the person by a way of respecting, by sympathizing with him when he has a problem or if he is in trouble.

Teach them also to avoid temptations and avoid possible occasions of sins. One way of acquiring righteousness is to avoid temptations and to be a good model always not only in worlds but also in deeds. There is nothing wrong to follow what is in fashion as long as it will not lead someone to commit sin. Be simple and modest in the way they dress and speak and this will hold rue especially to the girls. Parents must lead them even in reading magazines or watching movies, to study and analyze what our media convey because this might influence them to do bad things that could sometimes destroy the lives of our children. If we are relaxing in our homes we often watch Tv and parenting guidance is much needed because they are the great influence of teenagers. Our students and children must remember that mass media gimmicks can be a big factor in destroying one’s life. So they should be on guard always to stay away from any temptations.

Couple Turn Out To Be a Family

The vital role of every person is to become a parent. Unfortunately, it is also a role for which we receive little if any preparation. When the baby arrives in a family everyone is very excited, husband and wife are no longer simply a couple, we are now one family. A child gives the light in the family and all decisions must take baby first into consideration.

With the three people in the family, there are responsibilities for alliances, partnerships, and secrets that were not there before during the absence of baby in the house. For one thing that goes on between other twosomes. The alliance between mother and child is quite difference between father and child and this true and proven by me. These alliances are different from the one between mother and father.

When both couple decides of what kind of parents they want to be, we must take into account what kind of family we want to have and start to try some things consistent with the kind of people we are and the kind of baby we have. Parenting attitudes provides us links between individuals’ identity, family practices, and societal rules.

In our society today generations of birth parents represents a new breed. In most cases we have chosen to become parents. Despite of living in a work of social conflicts and change, we accept all the challenges of being a parent or of trying to rear healthy and well adjusted children in our community. However, there are lots of parents today who receive little in the way of preparation for child rearing other than training for a job. Although we may have rather definite ideas about the right and wrong ways of bringing up our children, sometimes we often lack of knowledge in coping up with the challenge confronting our children.

Parents before, when the baby is born they begun to wonder on how they should deal with problems that may arise. Thinking of what kind of discipline should we use. How parents deal with these questions as a child grows up depends on many factors and the nature, and the outcome of our children rearing are heavenly influenced by the relationship between our children and the environment they are living.

Busy Days Preparing for My Child Talents Night

A few days ago when I received a call from the principal of our school where my child is recently enrolled and asking permission that my grade three pupil is one of the finalist of being a Star Kids in their school campus in celebrating their school foundation day. I cannot say no to the principal because I know that my son is very much welling and interested to join with the said competition in their school.

When we talked with my son in the afternoon after classes that he is one of the finalists, he was happy and I can see the excitement in his face. So, even my schedule is quite busy I support my son, for I don’t want him to disappoint. It is my great pleasure being a mom that my son was selected in spite of plenty of students in the campus. Maybe the school teachers see that my son has a potential of being a Star in their school.

Today, I am very busy preparing for the attires that they will be using. It not an easy job for me, lots of preparations to be faced like, formal wear, production wear, festival attire and so with the talent portion. It quite hassle for me for I am alone preparing all of the attire and then I still hands-on driving them back and forth to school, study their lessons and then I still do for write for my post. Wow!!! Super mama is what I called to myself; it is not easy to have a husband working away from home, but no choice except to face the reality of life. Life goes on and all of our sacrifices in life have a bright future waiting ahead of me.

The Life of Every Filipino Family

First of all let us know first what the meaning of family is. The family is the oldest human institution and in many ways it is the most important in each and every one of us and the most basic unit of our society. Whole civilizations have survived or disappeared depending on whether family life was strong or weak. Every family has existed since earliest times and will undoubtedly exist as long as we are living in this beautiful earth.

Families make up the basis of every society because we serve three essential needs that are found everywhere. First, the family is a means of producing children and continuing the human race. Second, our family provides for the protection and early training of our kids. Our children perhaps are the most helpless of every creature. They must be fed, washed and dressed. They cannot moves by themselves, as our kids grow older they must be trained to become responsible members of the family as well as in our society. Lastly is that our family must set up a division of labor so that they will grow up and knows how to work in their own and can contribute something in our family. The head of the family or the father usually earns the living while the mother looks after the household. Both parents care for our children we gradually assume responsibilities as they become able to do so.

In every family, our child needs physical, moral and spiritual, intellectual and cultural nurture. Their physical needs like food clothing, shelter health insurance and physical care are all essential for the physical growth of our children and all members of the family. It is also important the moral and spiritual care like comfort of love, good habits and attitudes correct actions and speech and spiritual enrichment provided by some of our religion. Values should be emphasized in every home as ideals of sympathy, cooperation and obedience, trust and adhere to principles.

We the parent or the husband and wife should be good models to our children because what they see from their parent is what also they follow. So we need to se to it that all our doings are in a perfect way if possible so that they will grow as a better person. Usually the cause of broken homes is the misunderstanding and quarrels between husband and wife. Thus if all virtues and values are observed and followed religiously, no doubt it is an effective improvement of every Filipino life.

How to Maintain the Unity in our Family

Parents must be aware that there are many factors that influence our child’s character. The most important factor is the home, if we the parents in every home would only do our part in considering parenthood as a sacred trust and to the best of our abilities, provide our children’s spiritual and moral needs along with the everyday comforts of food, shelter and clothing as our major needs in life; if only we would not leave the character education of our children entirely to the school, then we do believe that we will succeed in maintaining family unity.

Every parent should always remember that the fact that family unity is the strength of every nation and in our society. If most of the parents considered ourselves as a member of our democratic society then we can make it a point to strengthen family ties within our family.

Maybe we need to ask this question to ourselves, when does family unity exist? There are family unities where there is love, understanding, trust with other, obedience with affection, mutual respect, humility, integrity, security and the most important is the economic stability within the home. But who sees to it that all of this prevails with in our home? The answer is we the parents, particularly the head of the family which is the father. We the parents must realize that we have a big responsibility to our children. The father, as head of the family has to play the very important role in seeing to it that we the wife and their children and anybody in the home the love and respect to one another so that he can perform successfully his role. The father has to lead in the practice of the democratic ways of life, to nourish and perpetuate among the members of the family so that we can maintain a nice way of living and have a unity in the house in our everyday living.

Children are the Fruit of Sacrifices

Children are the fruits of every parent’s sacrifices. Every parents dream to their children is that we all wanted them to be the best in everything they want and the good things that will happen to their future lives. We all wanted our kids to have a good health, good life, better understanding of what is happening in the real world, to educate them in good and reputable schools, to teach them the good values and respect towards other people especially to the elders and to land a good job when they are old enough to face the reality of living.

Kids are the number one priorities of every parent; parents are working hard for the good of their families and for what is good for the kids. Our love to our children is what we considered as unconditional love, we give everything that our kids will be happy and enjoy in everything they do.

Parents have a great role towards our children’s development, if possible we will guide them in everything they do in order to have a better life ahead and grown up to be a better person, have fear in God and a successful children in the near future.

My Brother is Very Special to Me

No one can compare the love of a sister to his brother. Even though sometimes brothers and sisters don’t understand each others feelings and happen to have small fights but it doesn’t mean that they don’t love each other. Small fights are common in the family and with that fights we learned by our own mistakes and that argument will not happen again and again.

In this coming Valentines Day, being a loving sister to my brother,I make some surprises for him to be happy on this very special occasion of hearts. I did not do this since we were kids and now we are all married and have a family of our own and I want him to feel how special he is in my heart. Special surprises can give as more meanings in our relationship; it adds the love and builds strong rapport even though we are living apart.

To recall our life before with my brother is quite not easy, we both college students before and college tuition fees is quite very expensive and it is known to every one of us that being a student with insufficient budget is not an easy thing to do. We do a lot of budget just to make sure that the monthly finances from our parents will be adequate with in that month so that we will not be out of budget. We suffer a lot especially financial support, but we did everything just to survive and finished our degree and now we are all degree holder with a white collar job that our parents must be proud of.

Finances are not a hindrance towards a good education and have a successful career, as long as you are determined to finish your degree, you can have it accompanied with determination and courage to face life and to be what you want in your future lives. That is why this coming season of hearts I want my brother to feel that he is special to me for it’s quite a long time that we did not boding with each other due to busy life and we are living far apart. Give love to our dear brothers and nearest to our hearts this Valentines Day.
