What is the best "normal day" for you?
For me, every normal day is a journey,SocialMy every day journey starts from 7:30 AM in the morning when I open my eyes in the morning. Thereafter, I take half an hour to get ready to reach a nearby school. Where I teach music to under privileged children. I spend almost 1 hour with the children and try to teach some songs. A reach experience for me where I can closely understand blanks in a child life.Work and FriendsThereafter, I come back to home and get ready for the office. I reach office by 11 AM and leave at 8 PM back to home. When I reach home I have dinner with my roommates. We have been living together since 2 years so it’s good to have some people waiting for you to have dinner together.FamilyAs I live away from my parents, so after having dinner I call my parents everyday. Our parents are important part of life and they own us. So, we should never forget our parents. I also visit to my parents’ home twice in a month on weekends.Reading or Internet sufferingI like reading books or browsing facebook, linkedin, quora before sleeping. I generally sleep at 11:30 PM in the night.PassionI love singing and playing keyboard so, I learn it on weekends. I utilize my time on rest of the weekends (when I don’t visit my parents’ home) by going to music class. Though, I earn decent salary, I don’t like owning a car, movies and all. I keep myself happy within me.So, I try to live a fully balanced and meaningful life instead of moving towards fake marketing of luxury. You won’t need any luxury if you find peace in yourself.
Can u describe a normal mom?
Okay so I'm a mom. And I'm not your typical mother. But I do take care of the housework. I mean I clean or tidy every single day because my husband works full time and I am home with the kids ( 7 years old when she comes home on the weekends, a 28 month old boy and a 6 month old girl ). I cook dinner every day for the most part, unless we go out to eat. I do laundry. I decorate quite a bit, so I go out to thrift stores to find little things here and there. I love to shop, so again thrift stores are wonderful. I also do a lot of photography. I own my own company called Passion Parties. I don't dress like your typical mom. I don't have a lot of mom friends because I swear they are all threatened by me. I have sushi and wine parties. We have dinner parties because I love to entertain. We play at the park or in the backyard with the kids. My husband and I play night soccer when were out having a smoke. I am your typical mother in the sense that I do take care of the domestic stuff. I am very loving and affectionate towards my family. And we are very close as a family. We do everything together for the most part. I try really hard to make sure my kids know that I love them. And they do. I show them all the time and I tell them all the time. We have a home that is full of love, laughter and happiness. I really hope as my kids get older, that we will continue to have what we have now, when they are babies. I grew up in a family that was very close to each other. And I want that for my own family. We are not normal though. But we are very responsible and take care of everything that needs to be taken care of. There is no such thing as normal because my normal may very well be different then the next persons.
What would you do if your children told you that they don’t believe in God (they’re atheist)?
I my children told me that they were atheist — I would first remember — don’t panic. Don’t lose my cool. Don’t over-react.They are responding to a culture where large numbers of people are atheist, including at the college level. Their friends may be bragging about it, and they may want to seem cool. That would be very common.I would first of all challenge them, “Can you prove that God isn’t real?”If they refuse to try — then that’s a good sign — it is a temporary condition, and they’ll eventually come around after a few years, without any further effort.If they try — that’s another good sign — because they will always fail, and they will come around much sooner.If they are unusually intelligent and they want to argue about it — that is the best sign of all, because ancient history has a large body of literature on the topic — at the college level — and the most famous atheists in the world cannot answer the ancient arguments.There are two ancient Proofs of the Existence of God, namely: (1) the Cosmological Proof; and (2) the Teleological Proof. Also, there is one Proof of the Existence of God from the Middle Ages, namely, (3) the Ontological Proof.The Cosmological Proof is the most ancient, and worked for all ancient cultures. It is expressed very well in the Book of Job, from chapters 37 to 41, as well as in Chinese religion and Eastern religion in general. In brief, the argument is that all Things are Finite — and so require a Ground of Being — which we call God.The Teleological Proof goes back to ancient Greece, back to the writings of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, and many others. In brief, the argument is that the vast complexity of the Cosmos points to an Infinite Intelligence — which we call God.The Ontological Proof goes back to Bishop Anselm (1000 CE). In brief, the argument is that the Concept of God is the Concept of the Greatest Being that we could possibly imagine. Ask somebody if they can get that idea. If they say, “Yes,” then ask, “Well, does that exist?” If they say, “No,” then say, “Then it can’t be the Greatest! Try again!”Those are very brief summaries. The arguments can become very complex, even for college professors. Atheists (even if college professors) show their inferiority when they refuse to respond to the Three Classical Proofs of the Existence of God.
What is considered to be "normal." ....?
I went through a very traumatic time with a family member & he eventually died. I was up all different hours & my life was in chaos. I eventually was diagnosed with diabetes. I thought before that I could eat anything I wanted when I wanted & do with or without sleep at any time. Well, I burnt out. Now I coach people who have gotten so off balance they could die if they keep going as they were going. The mind will eventually start doing things. Depression, crazyiness (scattered), ADHD. etc, So now what I do is help people figure out what they really love. They then turn that into a career & get a balanced schedule. Learn how to eat right & when to eat is important. You don't have to be really strict about it but it is so important to eat small meals so the blood sugar level stays balanced. Drinking enough water early in the day cause sleep is so important. Most diabetics just need to get their exercise, diet & sleep in order to be well. Also, deep breathing brings healthy energy to the whole body. If a person isn't thinking well they start going into debt, disease, all kinds of trouble comes but like a person who touchs a hot stove, by the time you see what is happening you are too deep into it. I hope you get what I am saying. I disagree with the person who said you can't help what hours you work. This is YOUR life you can find a way to be healthy & you are not stuck with the way you are living. That will become part of the not thinking well. Normal would be according to what most people do & I don't think anyone knows or cares. If you want to know what is normal you have to look at statistics on people. There are plenty about how much money people make, etc. I am thinking what you really want to know is if you are off balance with your life & if that is what you want to know my answer to you is one you don't want to hear. Yes, you are & yes you will have to change or life will force you to change.
What knowledge might save your life one day?
If you get stuffed in the trunk of a car made before 1991, disconnect the backlight wires. Eventually a cop will pull your kidnapper over. Kick and scream so the cop knows you’re in there. If the car was made after 91 there’s a trunk release lever in the trunk find it and pull it then jump and roll. You are more likely to live doing that than if the person who put in there has their way with you.Instead of screaming “rape,” scream “fire.” People will be much more likely to help you.If someone tries to kidnap you and they’re in a vehicle, run in the opposite direction the vehicle is pointed so they have to turn around.The average response time of a 911 call is 9–22 minutes. The response time of a Glock 17 is 1,230 ft/s.Getting kicked in the balls hurts like hell itself. If you’re getting attacked by a man, always aim for the testicles.Punch for the throat. Humans usually like to breathe, and while it might not be enough to kill them, it should disorient them long enough for you to get away.If you encounter a bear, never run away. Bears can run about as fast as your car on a backwoods road, so you’ll never stand a chance. Even if the bear charges at you, stand your ground. That’s almost always an intimidation tactic to try and get you to run. You should also make a lot of noise. Wave your arms around, yell, scream, whatever. Bears are pretty stupid, so if they think you’re bigger than you look, they’ll usually back off.Sharks have very sensitive snouts. If you’re ever attacked by a shark, punch them on the snout and they’ll swim away.If you’re stuck in quicksand, slowly tip your legs up until you’re lying on your back. It’s impossible to sink in that position.If you have duct tape wrapped over your mouth, start drooling. The saliva will eventually loosen the duct enough that it will fall off on its own.
How can a family member best help a sibling with depression?
Evaluate a few things:how long has she been depressed?What is the severity?What does she talk about?Is she still in schoolAre your parents awareHelping your sister can go a couple of ways; you can be the distraction. Cracking jokes, making her laugh like only a sister can do, offer to find her a therapist and go with her if needed, give her time to mourn the loss. OR If its still fresh, it may take a while. Be patient. But then say “okay sunshine, let's get the show back on the road” and help her dance back in to the sun.JUST BE THERE.So I take it the (guy)friend just dropped off the face of the Earth? So not only has she lost her (guy)dreamboat, she lost her (guy)friend too. (Yes, dreamboat & friend are same person, to anyone reading my answer. Stay with me people. Lol) Maybe reach out to him. Have an honest conversation and just say, hey I know you and (sis) are friends and you are in love with (sis’s friend) and it may seem awkward but you just kinda ghosted her. Can you maybe reach out to her and say ‘hey what's up, I’m still here, we are still friends.” Even if its a text. It will open up the friends line of communication, BUT impress upon your sister to BE A FRIEND TO HER FRIEND! Don't be a girl! Or she will lose him all together! Eventually, she will move on. She will always have that crush, but having him in her life in some capacity will help her more than not having him at all. Oh yeah… be sure to let HIM and (sis’s friend) know that you respect their relationship. Hopefully (sis’s friend) is mature enough to handle the situation.Hope that helps!
What was "normal weather"?
I'm sure you are perfectly aware that they are talking about trends. If floods have been increasing the 'new normal' would be a climate where flooding is more prevalent. just as if they have been decreasing the 'new normal' would be otherwise. Normal weather would be that which it is without anthropogenic influences. This is variable. Has this been the 'normal' in the past? Certainly when the climate was warmer or the same in a certain area. Does this mean that man can not have an effect on the climate? Certainly not. And a changing climate also has an effect on weather trends. Edit: No Om they are talking about trends. And when they state probabilities with more frequent '100 years storms' that deals with trends as well. Why do you continue playing these games? the 'new normal' is talking about a change in a trend. It is a catch phrase just as many things in the media are that both laymen and scientists use to describe science. Edit: I am accusing you of playing word games because that is all you do in here. Do you think 1998, a single year, was the change in a global temperature trend lasting approximately 30 years which is the time period stated by most climatologists? who said we can see it instantly? I certainly didn't. Nor do most people state that we have entered a 'new normal'. Rather the use a single incident as an indication of what a 'new normal' would look like. I don't see why you are finding this so hard to understand. You are playing word games just as you always do in here. Edit: I would suggest you open up your eyes. Let me lay it out for you in elementary school terms. The term 'new normal' refers to the weather in a changing climate. This is why it is a 'new normal' IT refers to more intense droughts in some areas of the world and more intense rainfall and flooding in others. That is the change from one 'normal' to another. You continue to side step the explanation and play your wordplay games. It does not matter how the climate is changing. If it is man caused. What does matter is the changing weather pattern trends. That is what is being spoken about. In a warmer world weather patterns will change as will the water cycle. I'm fairly certain you know and acknowledge this.
