While working at the Computer Many people who spend hours at the computer every day soon complain of eyestrain, headaches or deteriorating vision. But although computers tend to make you stare and strain for several reasons, you can avoid most of them as follows: - Instead of working until your eyes hurt, let them wander off the screen every few minutes. Listen to your body and be aware of the first subtle signs of strain. The often recommended 5-minute pause after each hour of work is not enough to reduce the tension. Your aim is to avoid the tension from arising in the first place.
- As you take your eyes off the screen now and then, close them briefly, then look at distant objects like people, pictures on the wall or trees outside the window. Let your eyes edge, scan, trace and change focus.
- Blinking is especially important at the computer, normally about every five seconds. Unless you are facing customers, you can roll your eyeballs now and then, open your eyes wide and squeeze them shut. To keep tension in your jaws from building up, open your mouth all the way, and yawn when you feel like it.
- Practice “dynamic sitting”, shift your posture often to find the right balance. Keep your spine and shoulders flexible and relaxed. Let your head balance on top of the spine, do not learn forward. To avoid stretching your head forward, you may have to change the position of the screen or get a different chair. Do not sit behind your computer for hours in a row. “Office Yoga, Simple Stretches for Busy People” is a little book designed to inspire you to take good care of yourself at the office and throughout the day.
- Position the screen in such a way that you do not stare against a wall when you look up from it. Your eyes need a frequent change of distance focus to function well. They enjoy looking at pleasant things, scenes or views often. Plants or flowers behind the computer create a nice work atmosphere.
- Avoid the glare that is caused by reflections of lights, windows or bright objects on your screen. Thin panel screens produce less glare and they also do not emit harmful radiation. Check for reflections before you turn on the computer, then move lights, furniture or window shades until the glare disappears. If this does not entirely solve the problem, consider investing in a high quality anti-glare screen that fits over your monitor.
- The room should be pleasantly illuminated, so that your bright screen does not stand out against a dark background. The light contrast of the screen itself should be easy on the eye. When you type text into the computer, place the original to the right or left of the screen on the same level, under a spotlight if necessary.
- If your screen is outside of normal reading distance, you may not see it well with your reading glasses. In this case you may want to get another pair of glasses for your computer work.

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me By David M. Romano
When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things,
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name,
and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind,
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
so much yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
just even for awhile,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you".
Today for life on earth is past,
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,
you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

Why Me Mom? - Death of an Innocent
I went to a party, Mom, I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom, so I drank soda instead.
I really felt proud inside, Mom, the way you said I would.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom, even though the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing, Mom, I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom, as everyone is driving out of sight.
As I got into my car, Mom, I knew I'd get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me, so responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away, Mom, but as I pulled out into the road,
the other car didn't see me, Mom, and hit me like a load.
As I lay there on the pavement, Mom, I hear the policeman say,
the other guy is drunk, Mom, and now I'm the one who will pay.
I'm lying here dying, Mom.. I wish you'd get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom? My life just burst like a balloon.
There is blood all around me, Mom, and most of it is mine.
I hear the medic say, Mom, I'll die in a short time.
I just wanted to tell you, Mom, I swear I didn't drink.
It was the others, Mom. The others didn't think.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, he drank and I will die.
Why do people drink, Mom? It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now. Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking, Mom, and I don't think it's fair.
I'm lying here dying and all he can do is stare.
Tell my brother not to cry, Mom. Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom, put "Daddy's Girl" on my grave.
Someone should have told him, Mom, not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom, I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter, Mom. I'm becoming very scared.
Please don't cry for me, Mom. When I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question, Mom, before I say good bye.
I didn't drink and drive, so why am I the one to die?

Child Who Saw
There was an atheist couple who had a child. The couple never told their daughter anything about the Lord. One night when the little girl was 5 years old, the parents fought with each other and the dad shot the Mom, right in front of the child. Then, the dad shot himself. The little girl watched it all. She then was sent to a foster home. The foster mother was a Christian and took the child to church.
On the first day of Sunday School, the foster mother told the teacher that the girl had never heard of Jesus, and to have patience with her. The teacher held up a picture of Jesus and said, "Does anyone know who this is?"
The little girl said, "I do, that's the man who was holding me the night my parents died."

NAIL IN THE FENCE
Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence. (Most importantly the last sentence)
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper.
His ***her gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.
Finally the ! day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all.. He told his ***her about it and the ***her suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold
his temper.
The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his ***her that all the nails were gone. The ***her took his son by the hand and led him to the fence He said, 'You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger,they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out.
It won't matter how many times you say 'I'm sorry', the wound is still there. A verbal
wound is as bad as a physical one.
Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed.
They lend an ear, they share words of praise and they always want to open their hearts to us.'
It' s National Friendship Week. Show your friends how much you care. Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND, even if it mean s sending it back to the person who sent it to you. If it comes back to you,then you'll know you have a circle of friends.
YOU ARE MY FRIEND AND I AM HONORED! Now send this to every friend you have!!
And to your family

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his
5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'
DAD: 'Yeah sure, what is it?' replied the man.
SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'
DAD: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?'
the man said angrily.
SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an
hour?'
DAD: 'If you must know, I make Rs.100 an hour.'
SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow Rs.50?' The ***her was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is so you
can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then
you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about
why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this
childish behavior.'
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little
boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some
money?
After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to
think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that
Rs.50 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to
the door of the little boy's room and opened the door. 'Are you asleep, son?' He asked.
'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.
'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier' said the
man.
'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.. Here's the
Rs.50 you asked for.'
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you daddy!' He
yelled.
Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.
The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry
again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up
at his ***her.
'Why do you want more money if you already have some?' the ***her
grumbled.
'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,' the little boy replied.
'Daddy, I have Rs.100 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with
you.'
The ***her was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he
begged for his forgiveness.
It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We
should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some
time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts.
Do remember to share that Rs.100 worth of your time with someone you love.
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily
replace us in a matter of days.
But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the
rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
into work than to our family.
