Sometimes, you gotta quit thinking so much. If it feels right, it probably is. So just go with it.

So, this page caught my eye when I was reading People Magazine. This couple right here is Allen & Violet Large.Allen is 75 & Violet is 78. They met in 1964. Ever since 1983, they have purchased two lottery tickets every week. Last year, Violet called the lottery hotline to check out the winning numbers, & turns out they won. They won $11.2 million dollars. & guess what they did with it? They donated it all to doctors, their own country, family. & kept none for themselves.

They say they are content with their ‘87 Dodge Diplomat Suburban & their 148 year old Victorian home,

Here’s a quote from Violet near the end:

” Money can’t buy happiness.” ” We have everything we need; I have Allen and he has me.”

Philippine Airport System: Redundant, Inefficient, Cumbersome and Useless

pinoytumblr:

We are staunch advocates of local tourism. We strongly believe responsible eco-tourism is a good driver of sustainable economic development. If there is anything we Filipinos can be proud of, it is the unparalleled physical beauty of our country, and the inner beauty of our people.

But those of us who travel extensively know how cumbersome, inefficient and opportunistic our travel systems are, particularly our airports and seaports.

We invite your attention to the tedious process of checking in and out of our airports—the first and last stop of all local and international travelers. The objective of a good airport is to make travel procedures as seamless and efficient as possible. Instead, ours have become perfect examples of bureaucracy, inefficiency, and what airport systems should NOT be.

Check Point Mentality

1. There are security guards who pretend to conduct a cursory check on the entering cars.

2. In the entry doors of the airport, there is another guard who checks the ticket and ID. At this point begins unnecessary waiting lines.

3. There is an X-ray at the main door. While there are often a number of X-ray machines, only one or two are open, thus creating another extended queue and further delay.

4. At the Naia-3, yet another guard checks the ticket and ID before the check-in counter.

5. After checking in, we proceed to another line to pay an exorbitant amount of P200 as “terminal fee.”

“Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some small like when we do a bad thing for a good reason Some are bigger like when we let down a friend Some of us escape pain and regret by making the right choice Some of us have little time for regret because we’re looking forward Sometimes we have to fight to come to turn to forget the past and sometimes we bury our regret and promise to change our ways. But our biggest regrets are not from the things we did but from the things we didn’t do, didn’t say that could save someone we care about Especially when we can see the dark storm decided their way.”

Never realizing that God is waiting for us.”
