Like I said before, life insurance is very important to avoid inconvenience when unexpected things happen. With so many insurance companies it is difficult to figure out which has the favorable features, like price, term and coverage. But, it would not be that way when checking life insurance online. Here, the list will give the convenience of [Read more...]

invitation with new social network

One of my friends emailed me inviting to join a social network site that she is a member of. Well, I am not really interested in already famous social sites. But, I think it’s a good way to connect with long time friends who are also a member of the site. I tried looking for other social network, specifically the new one. I found Acobay [Read more...]

Letters from “TEDDY”

letters-from-teddyJean Thompson stood in front of her fifth-grade class on the very first day of school in the fall and told the children a lie. Like most teachers, she looked at her pupils and said that she loved each of them the same, that she would treat them all alike.

And that was impossible because there in front of her, slumped in his seat on the third row, was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. Mrs. Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed he didn’t play well with the other children, that his clothes were unkempt and that he constantly needed a bath. And Teddy was unpleasant. It got to the point during the first few months that she would actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen, making bold X’s and then highlighting the “F” at the top of the paper biggest of all.

Because Teddy was a sullen little boy, no one else seemed to enjoy him, either. At the school where Mrs. Thompson taught, she was required to review each child’s records and delayed Teddy’s until last. When she opened his file, she found a surprise. His first-grade teacher had written, “Teddy is a bright, inquisitive child with a ready laugh. He does his work neatly and has good manners. He is a joy to be around.”

His second-grade teacher had penned, “Teddy is an excellent student, well-liked by all his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life at home must be a struggle.”

His third-grade teacher had noted, “Teddy continues to work hard but his mother’s death has been hard on him. He tries to do his best but his father doesn’t show much interest and his home life will soon affect him if some steps aren’t taken.”

Teddy’s fourth-grade teacher had commented, “Teddy is withdrawn and doesn’t show much interest in school. He doesn’t have many friends and often falls asleep in class. He is tardy and could become a more serious problem.”

By now Mrs. Thompson realized the extent of the problem, but Christmas was coming fast. It was all she could do, with the school play and all, until the day before the holidays began and she was suddenly forced to focus again on Teddy Stoddard. Her children brought her presents, all in beautiful ribbon and bright paper, except Teddy’s, which was clumsily wrapped in the heavy, brown paper of a scissored grocery bag. Read more

new eyeglasses for them

Mom and dad could no longer see without the help of eyeglasses. It actually started when they hit the age of 40. Now they are relying to eye glasses to read and see things clearly. Without it, I doubt that they can do anything right. Well, I am planning to give them a new one now. As far as I can remember, it was three years when I last gave [Read more...]
