Why Should You Become A Lifelong Learner?

September19Y

I am a student, a teacher, and a mother in order of the role s appearance in my life . Being a teacher and a mother means I am continually learning something new. I learn so I can keep up with my students and son; I learn from my students and my son; and I learn so I can do my best as a teacher and a mother. However, even if the role of a student wasn t forced on me by life I think I would be a lifelong learner. I love to learn. The universe is such a large and diverse place and even our small corner of it is so complex and varied that you can find a new challenge in any direction you look. I love learning big things and small things and even trivial things. I love the investigation and the discovery involved in the process of learning. Sometimes only the process interests me and I don t worry about the end result. I ve always suspected that being a lifelong learner was a good thing and I recently came up with three very good reasons for embracing lifelong learning. However, resarchers at the University of Toronto have found learning can not only be good for your life but also for your brain. Learning may...

Why You Should Laugh More

July29Y

I have long been a fan of the Reader s Digest Laughter, the Best Medicine column and often suspected that laughter was good for me. After all, I was raised on the mantra the family that laughs together, stays together and my family possesses a long list of in jokes that require nothing more than a catch phrase to crack up the whole clan. However, now my suspicion that laughter is good for me can actually be backed up by scientific evidence. Humor can improve memory. This would explain why so many advertisers spend a great deal of time and money on funny ads and gimmicks. It might also explain why so many of our favorite teachers also happened to be funny. We were learning while we laughed and it didn t hurt a bit. Humor can also help us be more creative. Often humor makes us look at ourselves or our world in a slightly different way which can be both enlightening and challenging to our brains. If amused we are more likely to open our minds up and think outside the box. Laughter is a great way to relieve stress. We know there are many other ways but laughter is socially acceptable in most situations...

Western Saddles: 7 Signs Of Poor Fit

March27Y

With a suitable quality saddle and a variety of saddle pads, you should be able to ride many horses of the same physical type with a single saddle. Such a saddle should comfortably clear a horse s withers, allow for free movement of the shoulders, be the proper length and shape for its back, and be well balanced to provide good weight distribution. That s proper saddle fit. If you ride horses of different breeds or significantly different sizes, then you ll need to invest in multiple saddles. Wondering whether your saddle fits your horse. Below are 7 potential signs of a poorly fitting saddle. If you re seeing any of these signs with your horse, you should take another look at how your saddle fits. White hairs. White hairs showing up in the saddle area can be a sign of poor fit. Over time pressure points can cause the hairs to loose pigment.

In the saddle area, sores and galls can be a sign of several problems: a poorly...

A Metaphor For Change - The Egg

February 5Y

There is nothing more certain in the world and in this life than CHANGE. No matter what people might think or what they might try to believe, everything is changing all the time, as we breathe in and out, as we eat and sleep and grow and go through our own spirals of unfoldment. So here is a simple metaphor for change. It is called The Egg and I hope you enjoy it. I often have this feeling of stress and desperation because I am quite convinced nothing has changed. I look around myself and all I see is what I always see. Same house, same furniture, same pile of bills, same everything. I thought that again about something the other day, and this large, beautiful golden egg came to my mind. There it is, and it just sits there in its nest of straw. It doesn t change shape, it doesn t change colour. It doesn t pulsate. It doesn t roll around. And yet, and if one was to extend one s feelers in a different way, one might become aware of the RIOT OF CHANGE that is taking place INSIDE the egg, a storm of re-organisation, feeding and growth, of total unfoldment as a bunch of random cells become a fish thing, which...

Buying A Car And Saving Money

December14Y

Aside from their home, most Americans will spend more money on their car than on anything else they will buy. And yet, when it comes time to buy that car, most people spend far more time researching the engine, the stereo and the moon roof than they will the finances of the purchase. By failing to do a little homework on the finances, many people end up spending more money for their car, truck or van than they otherwise might. A little bit of work ahead of time can help you save quite a bit of money on your car purchase. Here are some tips that might help: Check your credit report - A few months before you decide to buy you should check your credit report for errors. Mistakes on your report could adversely affect your credit score, which will prevent you from obtaining financing at the lowest possible interest rate. While you are checking your credit report, check your credit score, too. That way you can avoid an occasional scam where the salesman tries to trick you into paying a higher rate by falsely claiming that your credit score is too low. You can t fall for that one if you know your score. Arrange...
