From MY PAPER, My Say  THURSDAY NOVEMBER 20, 2008     THE commentary, “When women can dream big dreams” ( my paper , Nov 18), provides food for thought.   Although Singapore women have made some progress in the corporate world and political arena, they are still unable to keep pace with the changes in society.   While their Western counterparts call for equality and say that women can be better than men in anything they do, local women still find their lives revolving around their family, and do not attach great importance to women’s rights.   Singaporean mothers open their eyes wide in disbelief when their daughters express their wish to embark on careers in the uniformed services, such as the police force or military.   They react vehemently, saying that such jobs are meant for men.   Some girls forgo furthering their careers and studies overseas as they do not want to cause unnecessary an...

From MY PAPER, Home, My News TUESDAY NOVEMBER 18, 2008   ON LESSON FROM U . S . ELECTIONS LEONA BOEY   O BAMA-MANIA has gripped the world. There’s no gainsaying the significance of President-elect Barack Obama’s win, especially in the light of African-American history.   A barrier has been broken, and it’s clear that for the United States and the world, at least one thing has changed for the better.   Am I the only one, though, to think of the other barrier that has yet to be broken?   The world’s superpower came within a hair’s breadth of being led by a woman president or, at least, a woman vice-president.   Consider this: In the US, the 15th constitutional amendment guaranteeing voting rights to black Americans was passed in 1870, whereas women gained voting rights only in 1920.   Almost a century later, a recent World Economic Forum survey of 130 countries showed that while w...

From TODAY, Voices Friday November 21, 2008   By Dr Bill Maier   I know women whose lives once completely revolved around their daytime jobs.   At work they could get more done by noon than most people did all day— and they were just getting started. They’d move from one task to the next without skipping a beat. Competence was their middle name.   Then they decided to have kids and suddenly all that changed.   Days that were once taken up by high-powered meetings were instead spent feeding and diapering their new baby. Their PDA was replaced by a baby bottle.   And they couldn’t be happier! What started out as a short sabbatical from work became their life’s crowning achievement.   Because the thing that changed most in their life was their list of priorities.   What they’re doing now is more important than a million corporate takeovers — and they know it.

Revelations 3:8 When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly! 'The power of one sentence! God is going to shift things around for you and let things work in your favor in Jesus name Amen. If you believe, it will work. God closes doors and no man can open & God opens doors and no man can close. If you need God to open, some doors for you...send this to encourage people. Have a blessed day and remember that you are a blessing !... You are truly loved and covered in prayers. JESUS IS LORD OVER ALL YOU ARE GOING THROUGH NOW, THEREFORE BE STRONG IN HIM.

From TODAY, Voices Thursday November 20, 2008   By Dr James Dobson   Even good kids can get into trouble. That’s why teenagers need well-defined rules.   Most kids don’t want to do things that jeopardise their future. But parents should never underestimate the power of peer pressure. If you want your kids to stay safe, make sure you set and enforce clear boundaries.   No teenager has a reason to be out with friends late at night. A friend of mine says: “Nothing good happens after midnight” and I think he’s right. Unless it’s a planned event and well chaperoned, make sure your kids are home at a reasonable hour.   Then teach your kids what to do when faced with peer pressure. That’s another good reason for a curfew. They can say, “Sorry guys, but I have to be home by 11.” Giving kids a good excuse helps them save face when things get out of hand.   Help your teens st...

From TODAY, Voices Wednesday November 19, 2008   By Dr Bill Maier   Almost all new mothers experience some form of the “Baby Blues” after giving birth, and these feelings almost always disappear within the first two weeks.   But sometimes these blues persist or get worse, giving way to a more serious condition called postpartum depression. That’s why it’s important to watch for the warning signs.   Some mothers experience prolonged depression or a loss of interest in day-to-day activities.   They may lose or gain weight unexpectedly and have trouble sleeping. Feelings of guilt or low selfworth are common. In severe cases, suicidal thoughts will come to mind.   Postpartum depression is a very real condition and it can get worse if the mother is not treated.   It usually takes just a few weeks of counselling or medication to overcome. If you’re concerned about yourself or your spo...

From TODAY, Voices Tuesday November 18, 2008   By Dr Bill Maier   Couples tend to spend too much time worrying about the future and not enough time looking back on special memories.   Instead of focusing on what you wish you had, why not celebrate what you already have?   My friends, Les and Leslie Parrot — both doctors — suggest that couples set aside a regular time to sit down and recall the great things that have happened in their marriage.   Talk about the first place you lived as a couple and how much fun it was decorating it together. Keep family photo albums around the house and look through them together.   Why not set a date night, and instead of going out, make popcorn and watch old home movies? Even your kids will get into the swing of things.   Then spend some time telling stories about how you met, and how you came to be married. Recall all the great family vacations you’ve had...
