When we started developing the website, we read the posts of Rosane regarding Environment & Manking in our orkut community. She reflects the things so nicely that it is understood very easily by all. So, an idea came to our mind to present her knowledge and innovation through blogs by attaching it to our website. In this way, we can help lots of people (that is the mission of our group).

When we sent her a mail discussing this idea, we got a reply in a day. You yourself read her views on writing the blog:

"The peace I have today is different from the peace I’ve dreamed one day.
Only with time, have I learned that peace is to take responsibilities and fulfill them; is to have serenity in the most difficult moments of life.
Today I want to hear and speak words that build. I want to have the courage to cry or to smile whenever I feel like doing it...
I want to accept with humbleness that I don’t know everything, but I want to share the little I know.
I like to remember that nature is so exuberant exactly because the differences it shows in its creatures. Each one of us is special, on Earth, and we have the mission that the Divine Creator has entrusted us.
I want to bring: peace, joy and much news."

Hands that help are holier than lips that pray.

We don't have much time to think. We walk very concerned and busy with our immense and particular needs, which are often narrow and without any importance.
Volunteering awakens, opens, expands, and moves us towards directions that we never thought , never knew we needed, and afterwards  it changes our state of mind.
Among many others advantages, volunteer enables us to polish the edges of our personality, to become more active. It allows us meeting wonderful people, stripping us from prejudice, making us being able to feel the happiness to give without expectation of reward, but with absolute certainty that the greatest reward is a smile, a warm hand or a hug request.
Volunteering allows us to grow as human beings.
We live in a world that, in general, what motivate people, is money and everything else that gives the appearance of possessing it. Sometimes, ethics is forgotten when large sums of money are involved. Volunteer work is pure donation, in which the motion is given by the joy of sharing something that fills us as human beings. And that is priceless.
My life changed after the experiences as a volunteer, and my great personal motivation is to have the opportunity to connect with people and talk all these amazing themes that are so simple and so effective. I have read and tried many complex theories about life and found myself in a simplicity that, I joke, is so obvious that is annoying. This is also a great learning experience of human values: we are what we are. Without complications and major theories, acknowledging our feelings and respecting the feelings of others. We can notice differences between the first meetings and the rest, when live values ​​begin to pervade the lives of participants. Looking under new angle when experiencing the same situations, shows how the experiences as volunteers makes a difference in our lives. I realize that in volunteering, the predominant energy  is the freedom. There is an understanding that  putting me in the service collaborate in building that so desired "peaceful" world. Of course, the first to experience this happiness is the volunteer.
These feelings, or values, are increasingly strong and will activate others positively. Consequently, this internal movement, activating inner values, reflects in the external environment  and, naturally, it inspires others to experience those values.
It Becomes ever more real and easier to experience the value of being who I am. This experience, arising from the redemption and understanding of values ​​innate of beings, generates memories that will eliminate discomfort facilitating the realization that we have everything we want and that we can fill ourselves from the inside out, with love, peace, joy, respect, etc.. and then recovering the power that always keep us free, humorous, light, happy, safe, serene, gentle, loving, and so on. Because this is our original nature.
When we rescue and enjoy the universal human values, which is common to all beings and the foundation that supports real relationships, authentic and healthy, it reduces / eliminates the energy drained. We break the cycle of negativity, restoring the ability to acting right. It frees us from the burden of judgments, criticism and punishment, because when we activate the positive energy and healthy action that is in harmony with the values ​, negativity will be extinct.

Effects of radiation on the environment.

Japan was hit on Friday (11) by a earthquake of magnitude 9. The quake affected the electricity supply, which caused a breakdown in the cooling of the reactors in a atomic plant. According to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the risk of core melts, the worst accident that can occur in a plant is "great." The radiation in cases of major spills can contaminate water, soil, animals and everything that has life.
If melting occurs, three types of radiation are released into the environment:
Alpha, beta and gamma:



.
Alpha radiation can not penetrate the body; it causes a skin burn; the beta and gamma radiation - mainly gamma - enter the body and cause cellular deformation.
This is the same gamma radiation used in radiotherapy treatments, just to fight cancer. At low doses, it destroys tumors. At high, it can cause cell damage that leads to cancer.
The radioactivity can affect health in two main ways: When is ionizing, means: It is capable of changing the chemical structure of substances. With this, it changes the characteristics of common substances in our body; from the water, for example, it can form free radicals, which, in excess impairs the body's functioning.
Another possibility is that nuclear radiation directly affects the cells. The change in chemical structure of the elements can represent, for example, breaking of the DNA chain.
The modern medicine, still, can not tell if there is a limit amount of radiation to which the body must be exposed to such effects could develop cancer.

Exposure to rays is not the only risk to which the human body is subjected in relation to radioactivity. It is even more important to prevent people incorporate radioactive material. The most common way this happens is by inhalation of gases that mingle with the atmosphere after a leak.
One element that represents a bigger threat in this sense is iodine. The human body needs it to function normally and the thyroid tends to absorb radioactive iodine particles that are suspended in the air. To prevent this, are being given pills non-radioactive iodine to the population. Thus, the body becomes saturated and the element, even if it is inhaled in radioactive form, will not be absorbed.
The meltdown of a nuclear reactor does not kill people like a bomb. What kills even in case of a nuclear bomb is not the radiation, is the shock wave, then the heat wave and finally the radiation. Intensity of radioactive material in a nuclear bomb is much greater because the energy spent is very large and has no barrier. Yet, a reactor has four barriers against the release of nuclear material into the environment.

don't miss the singing!

Have you ever noticed the attitude of the birds facing adversities?
It takes them days and days making their nest, collecting materials sometimes across long distances... And when it's finished and ready to lay the eggs, the inclement weather, or the action of the human being, or an animal, destroy it and falls down all its effort and work ... 
What does the bird? Freeze up, abandons the task? 
No way! Restart again and again, until the appearance of the first nest eggs. Sometimes,often before the birth of a baby bird, an animal, or a child, or a storm, destroy the nest once again, but this time with its precious content! ... It's hard to start from scratch ... After all, the bird never enmudece or back, continues to sing and build, build and sing ... 
Have you ever felt that your life, your job, your family, your friends are not what you've dreamed? 
Have you ever felt like saying: enough! the effort is not worth it, this is too much for me?
Are you tired of, dealing with daily struggle, dealing with fake, your goals being  not achieved just when you almost got it? 
For more than life hurts you, do not never surrender, say a prayer, put your hope in front and invests in yourself. Do not worry if you suffer any wounds in the battle, it is expected that to happen. Join the pieces of your hope, assemble it again and again investing in yourself. Whatever happens ...don't  faint, keep on going. Life is a constant challenge but it is worth accepting it. And above all ... never miss the singing.

Manage your negativity


Have you ever thought what negativity can do with you?

Negative words which others speak for you or you speak with yourself can change your whole future. Have you ever thought your negative words have the power to destroy a bright career of someone as well as yours? On the contrary, have you ever thought that empowering words can change whole life of you whether you speak them with yourself or others speak them for you?

Have you ever listened for you these negative words?

“You're good for nothing",

"That’s not for you",

"Stop being too ambitious, it's not for people like you",

"You are nowhere near that...stop dreaming",

"Look at you...you look horrible",

"That's impossible!"

“You are nothing”

Remember the time when someone said these words to you and how you felt that time. Remember when you felt that negativity for you after a setback in your life. Remember when your negative thoughts broke you and you had nothing which could support you.

And many time you said to yourself negative statements:

"I am good for nothing"

"Is this really made for me, I am perhaps not made for this"

"perhaps I can’t get all the success, it’s all for others, the lucky ones"
This is yourself talk which makes you more depressed.

This time positive words, positive gestures, empowering words do hard work for you. These words hold you and make you happy and confident again. Yes words can lead you to success; they can lead you to confidence. Most powerful thing with a successful person’s life is the words which he said with him or to others. This therapy of positive words can heal everything; it can give you the power to change everything. Start to try out the perfect recipe towards Happiness and Success.
Pause for a moment, sit back and tell yourself "I WILL ONLY SPEAK POSITIVE AND EMPOWERING WORDS.”

Try this for 7 -10 days, yes, just for few days and you will know the difference in your life. While you do this, do not criticize, blame or complain anyone.
Don’t say ‘I will try’ Do it and if you fail, Try again and see yourself what happens!

Words have the power to grow you, mentally, physically and emotionally. You will never be able to grow beyond your words, so watch your words very carefully. Let’s find the strength that words can give anyone. Words can make you as they can break you. Use only those words that expand you, fill you with positivity and growth and make you happy.

I know it’s not easy to convert every event of life into positive thoughts. But if you can believe on this that it is possible to think positive at every stage of life, keep faith in God and you will be able to think positive soon.

Look at this real story:

Once a man’s newly constructed house demolished after a heavy rain. That family invested everything they had in construction of that house. Within few days they were to shift in that house. Whole area was shocked after that event but owner of that house distributed sweets to everyone and said “Supreme God gave us his blessings as he saved me and my family as if this house would demolished after our shifting, no one would have alive today”
This shows a man can think positive in any circumstances

Lets do positive self talk with yourself, don’t feel shy, and don’t feel you can’t do this, everyone can change. This is a scientific process and medically tested on thousands that we can change our way of thinking. You can say with yourself

I am the best

Today is wonderful day

I am awesome, and always do things with perfection.

Try to replace negative self talk with positive words. It may sound strange in the beginning but there is no harm in trying, Words can encourage your and others, words of appreciation, words of love, words with fun and words that empower you and others and words that spread happiness. Say to others

"I like what you do”

“I like who you are"
