Many Problems Can Be Avoided


You can’t really eliminate problems but you can stay away from many of them. All of us have problems even though there are those who seem to have no problem at all. Problems make you worry and sad. What is worse is that they give you anxiety and stress which make you sick. Nobody likes problems. But why can’t we avoid having problems? Many say it’s normal to have problems and there are some who have given advices on how to cope with them. Well, I have suggestions on how to stay away from certain problems.

Before I start with my suggestions let me just mention that there are tow types of problems – those that can not be avoided and those that can be avoided. When the whole world is in economic crisis you can’t avoid having problem with the rising prizes or the closing down of the company you’re working with. But certainly you can avoid certain types of illnesses. So, if you want to avoid certain avoidable problems here are some tips you should keep in mind:

1. Keep yourself healthy. Avoid eating or drinking too much. Select healthy, natural food and drink moderately. If you are a parent you should set an example to your children and consistently remind them of the value of health. Don’t smoke. Health problems can be avoided.

2. Listen to the voice of God within you. That’s your conscience. This means you should keep God’s commandments. If you are a parent you should set the moral example to your children. Read your bible

3. Obey the laws of the land. As a good citizen you should pay your taxes, obey traffic rules and help protect the environment.

4. Be courteous and respectful and cheerful. You will find out that you will be reciprocated and have many friends.

5. Have time for very prayer, reading and relaxation.

6. Practice thrift and frugality and make it a habit to save.

Well, you may have more suggestions. If you do, that means you are aware that certain problems can be avoided and those unavoidable problems would not be very heavy on you.

In Good Company


“The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat” are best when shared with others. Sports represent life. Sports display the character of players and spectators alike.


I really appreciate TV or Print ads featuring parents and children regarding sports. Their message is mainly focused on spending quality time with children. This is remarkable because along with this beautiful message is the teaching of values which children should learn in life. Sports represent life. Sports display the character of players and spectators alike. Sportsmanship is the ability to maintain proper attitude with regards to success and failure. Nobility and dignity are promoted in games played in stadiums as well as in the game of life. If we enjoy watching games with friends, we should enjoy them much more with our children.


Children should always be in good company. What could be better company for children than their parents? There is no excuse for parents who don’t spend time with their children. Being with your children in sports and not only in movies is one of the best times your children can have. It doesn’t only mean bringing them to stadiums but playing with them at home as well. Yes, you should play with them at home and trying your best to let them enjoy the games as much as possible. A father can teach their children basketball or baseball and the mother can engage them in indoor sports. No matter who you are, there is a game you can play. All you need is the sincere interest in it.


Studies show that children who go into drugs as well as children with problems come mostly from families where parents have no time or practically no time for their children. We should always have time for our children and we could always keep them in good company – our company.
