In December 2000, I woke up and read the Straits Times that a pair of Siamese or conjoined twins have arrived in Singapore General Hospital to be separated. Ganga and Jamina were from Nepal and were joined together on their heads as though one was standing on top of the other.

The newspaper called for public donations. There was something in me that I couldn't explain. Besides shedding some tears for their parents Bushan and Mrs. Shrestha.
I decided to do something constructive. I have been raising funds for the Deaf in Kenya through Foodsale. I asked the Foodsale Committee if they would support me if I started the donation drive in NTU. My friends overwhelmingly agreed to help both in collection and give cash.

ABC Letter V for very

We always associate my mum with corn. 

She was sowing corn so we could have sweet corn. She counted exactly 11 seeds. I told her there was now only 8 kids as big brother had gone to New Zealand. Mum said," in my heart, I am still growing for him."

On one occasion. She had just migrated to Australia and living in the mountains. She told my dad and brother the land would be very good to grow corn. 

The two men humored her and tilled the land. She sowed the corn and she was very meticulous and  used precious water to water the seedlings.

One morning, they heard her say, "Shoo!Shoo! Naughty Kangaroo." The kangaroos had eaten all her corn seedlings. Those kangaroos were such a nuisance, and Mum never asked Dad to dig the garden for her again. And dad did not offer.

Save the world: Guide to cheap living

Everyone now and then, some one sees my blogs and we agree on some ideas.
https://www.couponchief.com/gu…/guide_to_cheap_green_living…

I saw that you included “Save the world” in a post on My Thoughts and Photos’s website here:
http://ann-mythoughtsandphotos.blogspot.com/2012/02/save-world-thursday-theme-song.html

Thanks for this – I’ve been looking for some content about green living online. I’m glad your website has info that could be useful to people looking to reduce their impact on the environment. We at Coupon Chief have just created a massive guide titled “The Ultimate Guide to Cheap Green Living.” It includes up-to-date information and special tips to help people adopt a more Earth-friendly lifestyle without draining their wallets.

Can I send you the link to the guide? We’re hoping you could help us spread the word by sharing and linking to it. :)

Thanks in advance for your consideration!

Here are six of the most important reasons you should adopt a green lifestyle today:

Reason #1: This is the only planet we’ll ever have.

The top reason to go green is an obvious one; planet Earth is our only home. If we spoil our planet, we can’t move to Jupiter or Mars and start over.

Reason #2: Real food is better for you.

The big benefit here is that most Earth-friendly foods are also foods that are good for you. Fresh vegetables and fruits farmed locally are some of the best foods you can find, for example.

Reason #3: Some “green” technologies can help you save money.

While it’s commonly believed that going green is crazy-expensive, this is no longer the case. Even energy-efficient LED lightbulbs, which are somewhat expensive upfront, will help you save money on your home energy bills over time. Meanwhile, the price of newer technologies like solar panels continues to decrease every year.

Reason #4: Going green can increase your home’s value.

Adding energy-efficient appliances or upgrades to your home will help you save money over the long run. And since buyers love the idea of saving on utilities and energy, you can increase your home’s value and fetch a higher sales price, too.

Reason #5: We need water to live.

If you don’t care about the health of our water, you’re forgetting one crucial detail: We need water to live. As humans, we cannot afford to ignore the health of our water supply.

Reason #6: Green living is often more humane

As the scientific journal Nature noted earlier this year, human diets are directly linked to the health of our planet. More than anything else, a vegetarian or mostly-vegetarian diet is the best way for humans to reduce carbon emissions and stop global warming.
