I've been watching Young and the Restless probably since I was at least 5 years old. I know that I used to sit and watch it with my mom back when I was younger. In junior high and high school, I would record the episodes that I would miss, so that I could watch them after school. I have been an avid watcher for years.
Since Yahoo! recently acquired Associated Content, more opportunities have come my way. One of them is writing episode recaps and other content about Young and the Restless. I feel so blessed, and lucky to be able to watch the show and even get paid to write about it! This has become one of my dream jobs, and I feel very lucky to have been given this chance...
If you are a fan of the Young and the Restless, I have created a blog, that includes content and updates that I write for Yahoo! Television. You can read updates on the Young and the Restless at my new blog at: http://www.youngandtherestlessrecap.blogspot.com/
So, what do you do when you are down in your luck?Ted Williams realized he was blessed with something special, and with his belief in God, he was definitely destined to go somewhere. Although Ted fought his battles with drugs and alcohol, he found his way through the darkness and found the light. With a great amount of bravery, he pan-handled by busy roads to show off his gift from God. Ted definitely does have a "golden voice."
The Internet also helped a great deal in spreading the word about Ted. With a simple video posting on YouTube, it went viral and now it has over 3 million views. We all can learn a very simple lesson about Ted...
Even though we are down on our luck, or if things are really looking gruesome, there is a way to pull ourselves back up. Sometimes it takes the most biggest disasters for us to really see that life is a special gift. Ted Williams also teaches us-that just because you may be out of work -or perhaps even maybe moving from shelter to shelter-you won't be there forever. God indeed will look after you--you will get back up again. All it takes is some prayer, a little bit of hope, courage and the motivation to know that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
Its the beginning of a new year and we all have dreams and resolutions. Some of us are wanting to lose weight, find a job, spend more time with friends or family or perhaps find a new hobby.
While we are busy trying to start the new year off right in January, we also need to take time to remember a historic icon, Martin Luther King. He definitely made us all believe and have a dream--that one day we all would be created equal. And today, his dream lives on. Martin Luther Kingis definitely someone all of our children should know about.
If you would like to have some ideas on how to teach your child about Martin Luther King, check out the link to the article below:
While all of us take time making New Year's resolutions for ourselves, did you ever ask your child what their resolution is? Are they interested in creating a New Year's resolution too? Just as we have many goals we like to accomplish, there may be special things a child would like to do for the new year as well. If your child is having trouble deciding on what their resolution may be, perhaps you could help them with on. Here are a few steps that you can follow that can help a child decide his/her New Year's resolution.
1. Talk to your child and ask her what the new year means to her. Ask what she would like to do for the year ahead. 2. Help your child write down his ideas on things that he would like to do for the new year. Place a star next to his favorite ones. 3. Pick out her favorite resolution and draw a picture about it. Talk about the resolution with your child and see when or how she would like to make that come true. Hang up the drawing in her room or on the refrigerator so that she can see her picture every day. 4. Click here to continue reading about how to help your child with their New Year's resolution...
The story of Christmas is told by Facebook..... If Mary and Joseph lived today, this is how the story would look on Facebook. This definitely puts an easy understanding on the true meaning of Christmas. If your spirits are low this year, this video will raise them up... We celebrate Christmas every year to celebrate the birth of our Lord, Jesus... Enjoy watching the video.
These are some cute and talented dogs! Watch as they decorate the Christmas tree. These dogs are trained by a method called "mirror method." This video will definitely make you smile. Enjoy!
This year, my annual Christmas poem was inspired by the Christmas tree. Every year, families come together to decorate their tree. Little kids often love putting up their favorite holiday ornaments on the tree or even adding the special ones that they made at school. At our church, we even have a special church service that is dedicated to adding all of our special Christian symbols on the tree... The Chrismon Service.
I began thinking of all the past years that I have helped decorate a tree, and how now, I put up my own Christmas tree as well. Each ornament and decoration has a special meaning when it comes to the Christmas season. Also, there are ornaments that all have a special place in our heart as well. Like those that were family heirlooms, special projects from school or even those given to us by family friends and neighbors. There really is a lot more to the Christmas tree when you think about it....
Take a moment and read my poem, "The Family Christmas Tree" (click on the title). I think you will really enjoy it .... It just might make you think the next time you put up your Christmas tree...
