H1N1 vaccine

Posted on Oct 6th, 2009 by Galia : Peace lover Galia
  I do no agree with making this vaccine mandatory. We should be free to give a consent on whether we will get it or not. 
  Are we going to accept to be the guinea pigs????/

The toughest job you will ever love...

Posted on Jan 28th, 2009 by Galia : Peace lover Galia
Surprised


 Being a full-term parent is not an easy endeavour. It may not even be feasible due to financial constraints. First of all, you will encounter all sort of messages from people who simply think you should just go and earn money and make progress in your own career... sometimes the messages come in the form of silence. There are those who think that you "don't like your job". I even read about people saying that staying at home to take care of your kids puts your brain at rest or is " not progressive" . In fact , being a good commited full-term parent involves puting your brain at work more than ever. It can encourage you to be creative if you are open to it.
  From my perspective, being a full-term parent is not about being a housewife or an overprotective parent. It is the precious job of taking care of your kid full-time, guiding him/her, watching him/her, supporting him/her at times of frustration, encouraging him/her to learn something new and not to be afraid of that. There is also a lot you can learn from your own kid... Each phase of development is an opportunity for new discoveries and creativity.
   Being a full-term parent is looked down by many people out there, even your own relatives. Yet, I believe I can do a better job than any nanny or teacher. After all, who is going to love your kid more than you do?
  There is no money in return for this precious job, but a healthy kid turning into a healthy adult in the future... I may be able to let you know what happens in the future. In the meantime , let me enjoy my full time motherhood. It is the toughest job I will ever love...

The story of stuff

Posted on Nov 11th, 2008 by Galia : Peace lover Galia


 What a great video!

   Paradoxically, the system in crisis might as well be saved by the economic crisis... 
 In any case, just watch the whole video and draw your own conclusions...

 Let me know what you think about it. I am anxious to hear your opinions.

Toxic toys, toxic milk, toxic pet-food, toxic eggs!!!

Posted on Nov 11th, 2008 by Galia : Peace lover Galia


 I wonder how much  it has to happen before restrictions are imposed on the Chinese government. Every country negotiates. They think they do a great job in saving money while they kill babies all over the world...
  
Why do they hide the names of the laboratories or corporations involved in the dirty business of trdaing these toxic products????

  I guess everyone was thrilled with the Olympic games to think about these issues...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/7699100.stm

 It is not surprising that the Chinese government does not care about human rights. What really should strike us is to see how all the other countries of the world continue to buy their dangerous products...

Bottled water...

Posted on Oct 15th, 2008 by Galia : Peace lover Galia


 Let's be smart. Do not buy bottled water. In addition to consuming plastic , the quality of bottled water is NOT better than tap water, but worse...I have just read this article that was published today. This is no news for me because I went to see Flow, the movie I mentioned in my previous blog entry.
Go ahead and read the article that came out today about bottled water:

Flow...

 Are you thinking about buying a bottle of mineral water? Or maybe one of coca-cola or pepsi??... think twice. There is a lot going on behind these actions.

  Yes! There is so much you do not know and should become aware  of before it is too late. Go and watch Flow, a wonderful movie/ documentary.

  We went to watch it yesterday and,  to our unpleasant surprise, it was just my husband and me in the place. Just the two of us, which makes me think that people are turning a blind eye  on an issue that is life-threatening. You can say you are worried about the economy but do you think any of us can survive without water????. There is NO life without water...

  Go and watch this marvellous movie and make others aware of all the issues around it.

   Will you continue to live ignoring this ? Please, don't talk to me about positive change when you are indifferent to something that is happening now... let's face it!
