Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Travel With Your Mind At Ease With These Tips

By Thoas Brown


Millions of people from all around the globe put in hard work around the clock and can't wait to take their vacations. If you're planning on traveling, this year on your vacation or for any other reasons, read up on some great travel tips you can use on your next trip.

If you are traveling with liquids, use pieces from a plastic bag to help you avoid spills. Many people put their liquids in bags, but while this protects your other items, it doesn't keep you from losing something that you need if it all spills out. Instead, tear off small pieces from plastic bags. Take off the top of your bottle, put the plastic over the opening and replace the cap. You won't have to worry about leaks any more!

Before you leave on your trip, make sure you are up to date on all your vaccinations. If you are taking any prescription medications, be sure to bring extra along just in case. There is always the chance that your departure might be delayed, and you don't want to run out.

A useful item to pack for your flight, inside your carry-on bag, is a fleece blanket with sleeves. It can keep you warm on a cool plane, while still allowing you to hold your book or magazine. It can also be rolled up and used as a travel pillow.

When you are packing for a trip, put smaller objects, like shampoos and medications, in see-through plastic bags. This will make it easier for you to find what you are looking for. It will also help save time if you are traveling internationally and customs wants to look through your luggage.

Before taking an overseas trip, travelers must remember to check their immunizations. Traveling to a destination on a different continent will expose the traveler to germs and potential infections that his or her body is not used to. The wise traveler will check with a health care professional to determine what new immunizations and boosters he or she needs.

Make sure that you get enough sleep the night before you need to drive for any extended periods of time. You may get drowsy on the road, and that can contribute to a car accident. If you find yourself getting tired behind the wheel pull over and have a caffeinated drink. Have a short nap too. Some people find driving without their shoes to be helpful too.

Pay special attention to the holidays of the countries you are traveling to. Different countries celebrate different holidays, and if you do not know when these are, you can give yourself a headache. Many restaurants and businesses will close on holidays, so look them up before you travel to save yourself the trouble.

If you are traveling by air, you can go luggage free. It will save a lot of time and unnecessary travel. You can have your belongings sent to your destination via UPS or FedEx. Although this may cost a bit more money, is it worth it in the long run.

Avoid parking at an airport when at all possible. The fees at the parking lots of airports are often outrageous and can easily be avoided. You can ask a friend or family member to take you to the airport or hire a cab to bring you instead. The cab ride will often be less than the parking lot fees.

With the knowledge you just obtained in this article you should already feel like you have an idea of the steps you want to take towards traveling successfully. Remember this article is only beneficial to you if you actually apply it, if you do that then your traveling should come with ease.
