Maslows Hierarchy Of Needs

Hey everybody, this grandma reporting. I 've been busy checking out Internet sites, + sites , and extensions of sites + rss feeds . There is so much on the web . I went for a place called Cash lagoon. I have spent many hours today , trying to get started , as they say: Making Money. Yes I know , everyone says , it's not worth it . And right now , all I can say , I didn't start making money. This one was recommended on Technorati . You can start a search , and then all these , responses start pouring in. Some are really off the mark, a word may be all that is related to your search . I still think it's the best for me , because it's easy . But then, if you pick information that just takes up way too much time .Then what is your reaction ? For myself , and I know others , we have been scammed at least once or 3 times . I have gotten into , what feels like a maze , I have sometimes forgotten what I was looking for , then sometimes I find something I didn't know I was looking for . Right now , it's the presidential election ......OK Back to my response , it ebbs and flows . My fundraiser hasn't seen any response . So I have been searching for grants , for individuals , searching for making money online, and the making money online , I can't put in alot of time , sitting in front of a computer , filling out forms, (even if they let me.) For me, I want to continue to be free , to have time to do that certain thing for someone , freedom to walk into my backyard , feel the sun on my face , tell God how grateful I am for this new life . When I begin to feel afraid that I won't get to stay home and live the life that feels right for me , I pray , and every time , I receive comfort , I listen and God tells me what I need to hear . Once I get pass this point of getting support , then I will have more time to grow in all directions ! Life = Risk

Do You See Signs ?

This grandma has been thinking about "signs", some people believe these signs are from God. I have to believe in signs because , since I have continued to learn about god , and the truths he has made known to me ; the signs I see , will be related to what I was told about myself and ,or they will give me answers. Some signs are like renforcing, like God just keeps finding ways to remind me , until I have to do something, or I spend time with God and Jesus, because it keeps showing up, and then I am given the message . Last week I was filling out personal form, on a website for microgiving. One of the questions was what comes first in your life. I began to have thoughts about god should come first , but I honestly felt I was betraying people I love . I felt ashamed that I couldn't make up my mind , I left it unanswered. I thought if I don't choose people I love , it would be very sad. I felt if I could not place God first, then that was wrong , because I have always heard, put God first in your life. Then the next day I was talking to god about this struggle . He explained to me how that works. If I put God first, I pray and learn more about how it all works then I know he comes first. So when I hear ," put God above all else" . It makes perfect sense to me now. I was thinking last night, I have written alot about miracles , but I haven't written much, in detail about the miracles . One reason for that is I find myself not knowing how to write in away that really says what I want to convey to anyone who would want to know. It's like when the insight comes, and I feel the miracle so strongly. That's when I need to write about it. I think that our interpretation of a miracle changes as we change , and the signs may be a part of the changes in a person. So as I began with the idea of signs , today I looked down , while I was dusting , and though I hadn't realize it, a book I had gotten from the library last week ,was laying there , and it said, "this is a time of miracles". I want to say I have reached a point where I don't know how to write about my next insight.

Letting You Know.

Hi everyone, this grandma here. today ,dear diary, I want to talk about my thoughts. I have not written a post in 2 weeks. I have really missed this writing . But I became disillusioned when I looked for readers , anyone even coming to my blog , and the information from Google said 0 , in all categories. I also felt sad , one reason is because I like my blog. (most of the time). I had stopped trying to get advertisers , and began my personal fundraiser . I have also written quite a bit about myself and the reasons I am asking for every ones support. I have read some of it again, and I know all my writings are different . But they all were written for the same reason, some ,I added information ,I think , maybe ,they were confusing . But I felt compelled to start the fundraiser . I believe it is a very worth wild fundraiser . I continue to write about my relationship with God and Jesus . I have witnessed so many miracles , I have been and still am , being shown so much about life, love , faith , changing thoughts ,or maybe , thought patterns. I have been shown when I had some of the old thinking , I mean , thoughts ,that had been in my life for who knows how long , thoughts , that a person isn't even aware of , until God begins to show you . A few weeks ago , someone close to me was having problems in their longtime romantic relationship . I had prayed for them , but then , one day , I heard it! , quietly , in the back of my mind , I was wanting them to break up . I shuttered, what I was thinking was mean . And some how I was thinking it would be good for me!, wow. .. . I have to stop here but there is more to say . I will keep writing , and one day readers will come. And someone will understand me and why I have a fundraiser.

Little Girl Found

Hi everybody, grandma is ready to roll. Earlier this week we had an awful scare. A 12 year old girl was missing , when I heard about it , she had been gone for almost 3 hours . The missing child alert was sent out .It is a computer set to contact approx. 300,000 people . Then about the 5th hour , The call came in from her dad that he had found her . She was not t far from home , but she was hiding . The father had searched the hiding place earlier , as well as the police , and maybe others , their were already many local people , friends , neighbors , family, all looking for the girl. The 12 year old had taken the family dog with her , and she has him trained very well . As her friend said , "when she tells him to stay he doesn't move" . Also the dog will attack anyone who comes near her . The dog ,of course , is how the dad found his daughter . They were hidden but dad did see the dog and began to call him . The 12 year old had left a note leading everyone to think she had ran away . So there was nothing to hint where she may have gone, but the dog would make it different . She couldn't take the dog into some places , and she couldn't leave him alone. It was getting late , and all her friends had been contacted , and any where she might go , had been alerted . It was surprising that she was still so close to home , and that she was ok . It was a miracle that we all felt. The little girl was angry because she had been grounded , and there is more , but that is for the family to work out . Once she had returned, the officer spoke with her briefly about how many people were looking for her, and he told her about the missing child alert . He made it known to her , that the local police station was next door, and how he and the other officers were there anytime she needed to talk , not hold it in , and then do something like tonight . She appeared to listen , and shook her head in agreement . There were others that ask her to please call and talk about things . I thought telling this story could be , in some way, useful for others . More tommorrow on early teens.

Very Important Information About Help For Cost of Medication.

Hey everybody, perk up your ears , I have lots to tell you and it is very important. Since I have left the working world , I have not had insurance , nor any prescription coverage. I told a friend last week that it is at least a partime job getting my medications. I , like many others can't afford my medications . When I say I can't afford my meds. , that is an understatement believe me. I have several meds. that cost over $ 400.00 a month . That doesn't include the others that are less in cost , however, they cost too much as well for a person with low , even medium income . I don't take all the meds. I have been prescribed , and I know there are many , many more people out there who could tell a similar story. I want to share some information about this delima . I called pharmaceutical companies an applied for their assistance programs. I have been accepted by some that send my medication at no cost , and the application for free medications is valid for a year . You can renew easily , as a matter of fact they will remind you of when to reapply . I realize that there are programs that are helping people get information about these services, such as the program PPA , Montel Williams is the spokesman for the program , and the pamphlet you receive , has a list of pharmaceutical assistance programs . Also some med cards for discounts on meds. While this information will be a miracle for many, there is still alot of costly medications that you can't get help with . Just to name one for myself ; Deplin 7.5 mg. 1 time a day. This is fairly new , it is termed a food medication . That sounds like it 's not that important ," but believe me it is". I recived a discount card from the company but the discount is like a dollar , for a months supply . The cost is approx. $ 60.00 a month . I want stop and mention here; for me and I know so many other people , when you get the right medications , they work for you ; it is" very scary ", to think about having to change or not be able to get the medications. I have been very fortunate , my Dr. and his nurse have help me so much , with samples , with supplying information to the pharmaceutical companies. I am very grateful to them. Another important part is , the people who don't know how to get this help . I know from my experience in mental health , some people are too sick to carry out the processes , also, when a person has many meds. , and can't get them all , there will be many serious ramifications . I'll end with this . " Some people have a monthly income ,of $ 880.00 ."
