Well, what do we know about Consciousness?? In our science classes we have learnt that consciousness is a word used to describe being awake and aware – responsive to the environment, in contrast to being asleep or in a coma. That is as far as books can go. But I was moved when I read in a book what consciousness actually meant. In philosophical and scientific discussion the term is used in a more precise meaning related to the specific way in which we humans are mentally aware in such a way that we distinguish clearly between ourselves (the thing being aware) and all other things and events. This "self-awareness" may involve thoughts, sensations, perceptions, moods, emotions, and dreams.
A few days after I read this book I heard Michael Jackson’s ‘Heal the world’. I felt as if I heard the song for the first time [though I have heard it a thousand times before!]. The line ‘stop existing and start living’ made so much more sense to me! I hope someday I will start an inner search that will bring more light to this consciousness – about the world, about myself and above all, a consciousness that there is someone up there guiding me through all this!
Be conscious and have a lovely life!

Selfishness
If you are dealing with a man you find extremely selfish, may be you failed to convince him of your selfishness.
If selfishness is a very strong element of human nature, moral preachers know this very well, may be they have their selfish motives too.
If everybody was concerned about his own welfare selfishness could have become the panacea of all human sufferings.
If the young very often enjoy the temporary joys of selfishness, the old have very little time left and they are still waiting to achieve joys of unselfishness.

Idea & Research
If the source of one’s extracts is singular it is termed copy, if the sources are many it is classified as Research. Copying is tolerated if it is performed by popular intellects. It was once stated (though never proved) that newton copied Leibnitz’s work on integral calculus. Newton had had access to research’s. Thought here is no proof for newton‘s eclectic endeavors, he himself later diplomatically admitted without mentioning names “if i have seen farther than others, it is because i was standing on the shoulder of giants”. Prior to working in Bern’s patent office in Switzerland where he had access to patent pending work, Einstein had no traces of success whatsoever.

Flax Seed
Flax Seed is a seed that comes in either a gold or brown form and contains lingams and omega-3 fatty acids. Both are beneficial to the body and research has supported claims that they protect against heart and liver diseases as well as cancer. Although flax seed can be taken in pill and oil form, studies have shown that the raw seed itself has the most benefit. Grinding the raw flax seed and mixing with foods and beverages is the preferred method of usage.
Other positive results from flax seed include lowered cholesterol, control of high blood pressure, and help with constipation and hemorrhoids. Flax seed can be ground up and used as an alternative for bread crumbs, as well as sprinkled overcottage cheese and yogurt to provide texture. Ground flax seed rather than whole has a higher potency level, but users should be careful to only grind as needed due to the short shelf life of the seed once grounded up.

Are you too choosy?
Is it possible that you are the one preventing you from dating? What are you looking for in a date? How important is physical attractiveness? A nice body? Wealth? Intelligence? A nice car? A good family? The right set of Christian values? How many people have you found who meet your standards? Is it possible that you’ve raised the dating bar so high that no one can make it over? Is it time to reevaluate your dating preferences and standards? Ask the lord to give you wisdom concerning your dating standards. You certainly don’t want to set them too low and starts going out with everyone you meet. On the other hand, you don’t want to rule out everyone you know.

Secrets on Building Traffic for Free
Some time ago there was a blogger who asked an interesting question to the top bloggers:
“If you had 2-hours a day to devote to no-cost, off-blog (even off-line) marketing for your blog, what would you do?”
I read his article, and I selected some interesting responses, so here I present them to you in a concise manner:
-Leo Babuata from ZenHabits in also in favor of writing guest posts. He says that there is no better form of advertising, free or otherwise.
-Darren Rowse, author of ProBlogger claims that guest posting in the same niche is the best way to market your blog. He said that he would interact with other bloggers and their readers.
-Penelope Trunk from Brazen Careerist says that there are two offline things that are great for promoting his blog. This includes talking to people at parties and while speaking in public.
-Anita Campbell from SmallBizTrends would engage in social media marketing while using content sharing sites, social networking, and even community based sites.
-Muhammad Saleem from MuhammadSaleem would socialize with other bloggers in different ways including guest writing and commenting.
-Liz Strauss from Successful-Blog gave in my opinion the most elaborate response as she said that she would use StumpleUpon, comment on blogs, talk on the telephone with bloggers, speak at a local rotary and conference, or even buy a weekly hour of live radio time among other things.
I hope this article gave you some ideas, but remember that content is king, so it is good to first work on the content before you get heavily involved in promoting your site. If you have any additional ideas for building traffic for free, let me know.

Origins of Windows
Have you ever wondered how old Microsoft Windows is? Do you know when the first copies of this program were sold? Actually Microsoft Windows have not been around for that long. It has been less than 20 years. Those of you my readers who are over the age of 20 probably remember the times where Windows where not around yet. Let me here give you a brief history of what versions were used by users in what years:
1990-1994: Windows 3.1
1995-1997: Windows 95
1998-1999: Windows 98
2000: Windows ME
2001-2006: Windows XP
2007-2008: Windows Vista
And you, my reader, what version of Windows are you currently using? From my observation I know that many people still use Windows XP, but Windows Vista is gaining popularity quite fast.

How Anonymous Can You Be?
The World Wide Web is a new invention that dates back to 1989. The Internet offers a lot of possibilities; however, there are also some dangers related to it. One of the things that is bothering some users is the fact that they cannot be as anonymous on the Internet as they wish they could be. Some wonder whether it is fair that everyone can see where anyone is from by simply looking at their IP address. In fact, there might be a solution to this issue, and I am talking about proxies. Basically, they allow users to connect to websites indirectly which masks the IP address of the user. It sounds great, but using proxies may not work that well for many reasons. Most Internet users do not intend to use such services in the nearest future. It might be because proxy servers usually drastically slow down Internet connection speed and response time.
Let us look at the issue from a different perspective. If everybody on the Internet was completely anonymous, then the Internet would be a perfect haven for cheaters and criminals. It would be impossible to track them down. As we can see, there are positive and negative sides to everything. If we were anonymous on the Internet, then also hundreds of scammers would also be anonymous. It is interesting to speculate how in the future we will solve this problem.
