When It Comes To Earning Money....... ....... A Jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. "You are employed" he said. Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in,as well as date when you may start. The man replied "But I don't have a computer,neither an email". "I'm sorry", said the HR manager. If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job." The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60. The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late.Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. 5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the
US . He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance. He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email. The man replied,"I don't have an email." The broker answered curiously, "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?!!" The man thought for a while and replied,"Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"
Moral of the story....... ......... ..
Moral 1 Internet is not the solution to your life.
Moral 2 If you don't have Internet, and work hard,you can be a millionaire.
Moral 3 If you received this message by email, you are closer to being an office boy/girl,than a millionaire. .........
p.s - Do not forward this email back to me, I am closing my email account & going to sell tomatoes!!!
Let us join hands in saving Mother Earth

Our environment is fast deteriorating as we experience climatic changes. It poses a great threat not only to the existence of human beings, plants, animals but also brings along economic disaster.
We have felt frequent climatic turbulence such as flooding, stronger typhoons, drought, tornadoes, rising sea level, etc., which damages billions of dollars in properties as well as loss of lives.
The world leaders are formulating solutions to reduce the impact it entails without sacrificing the economic activities of the people.
One of the major contributors of this global warming is the smoke emitted from vehicles and engines of factories, various industries and companies. We may not easily reduce the contribution of our motoring public since it is the economic driver of businesses that deliver the transport of goods and services.
What we can do is to reduce the smoke emissions by treating the fuel that we are using to become combustion efficient lowering the harmful smoke emissions.
By then, it will not disrupt the movement of the product and services which are vital to the economic activities of the general public.
We recommend the use of biofuels that are known to further reduce smoke emissions while it improves engine performance that leads to additional fuel savings.

THE SEED
A successful businessman was growing old and
knew it was time to choose a successor to take over the business.
Instead of choosing one of his Directors or his children,
he decided to do something different. He called all the young
executives in his company together.He said, "It is time for me to step down and choose the next CEO.
I have decided to choose one of you. "The young executives were
Shocked, but the boss continued. "I am going to give each one
of you a SEED today - one very special SEED. I want you to plant
the seed, water it, and come back here one year from today with
what you have grown from the seed I have given you. I will then
judge the plants that you bring, and the one I choose will be
the next CEO."
One man, named Jim, was there that day and he, like the others,
received a seed. He went home and excitedly, told his wife the
story. She helped him get a pot, soil and compost and he planted
the seed. Everyday, he would water it and watch to see if it had
grown. After about three weeks, some of the other executives began
to talk about their seeds and the plants that were beginning to grow.
Jim kept checking his seed, but nothing ever grew.
Three weeks, four weeks, five weeks went by, still nothing.
By now, others were talking about their plants, but Jim didn't have
a plant and he felt like a failure.
Six months went by -- still nothing in Jim's pot. He just knew he
had killed his seed. Everyone else had trees and tall plants, but
he had nothing. Jim didn't say anything to his colleagues, however.
He just kept watering and fertilizing the soil - He so wanted the
seed to grow.
A year finally went by and all the young executives of the company
brought their plants to the CEO for inspection.
Jim told his wife that he wasn't going to take an empty pot.
But she asked him to be honest about what happened. Jim felt sick
to his stomach, it was going to be the most embarrassing moment
of his life, but he knew his wife was right. He took his empty pot
to the board room. When Jim arrived, he was amazed at the variety
of plants grown by the other executives. They were beautiful --
in all shapes and sizes. Jim put his empty pot on the floor and
many of his colleagues laughed, a few felt sorry for him!
When the CEO arrived, he surveyed the room and greeted his young
executives.
Jim just tried to hide in the back. "My, what great plants, trees,
and flowers you have grown," said the CEO. "Today one of you will
be appointed the next CEO!"
All of a sudden, the CEO spotted Jim at the back of the room with
his empty pot. He ordered the Financial Director to bring him to
the front. Jim was terrified. He thought, "The CEO knows I'm a
failure! Maybe he will have me fired!"
When Jim got to the front, the CEO asked him what had happened
to his seed - Jim told him the story.
The CEO asked everyone to sit down except Jim. He looked at Jim,
and then announced to the young executives, "Behold your next
Chief Executive Officer!
His name is Jim!" Jim couldn't believe it. Jim couldn't even grow
his seed.
"How could he be the new CEO?" the others said.
Then the CEO said, "One year ago today, I gave everyone in this
room a seed. I told you to take the seed, plant it, water it,
and bring it back to me today. But I gave you all boiled seeds;
they were dead - it was not possible for them to grow.
All of you, except Jim, have brought me trees and plants and
flowers. When you found that the seed would not grow, you
substituted another seed for the one I gave you. Jim was the
only one with the courage and honesty to bring me a pot with
my seed in it. Therefore, he is the one who will be the new
Chief Executive Officer! If you plant honesty, you will reap trust
* If you plant goodness, you will reap friends
* If you plant humility, you will reap greatness
* If you plant perseverance, you will reap contentment

HUGS
There's something in a simple hug
That always warms the heart,
It welcomes us back home
And makes it easier to part.
A hug is a way to share the joy
And sad times we go through,
Or just a way for friends to say
They like you 'cause you're you.
Hugs are meant for anyone
For whom we really care,
From your grandma to your neighbor,
Or a cuddly teddy bear.
A hug is an amazing thing
It's just the perfect way
To show the love we're feeling
But can't find the words to say.
It's funny how a little hug
Makes everyone feel good;
In every place and language,
It's always understood.
And hugs don't need new equipment,
Special batteries or parts -
Just open up your arms
And open up your hearts.
Here's a great big hug for you
I'm sending it your way
I hope it brings some cheer to you
And brightens up your day!

PASTORS IN DISTRESS
Three pastors took a day off and decided to go fishing
after a busy Sunday.
They agreed it's so difficult preaching to people all the
time and no one preaches to them.
Sitting by the river with little response from the hooks
one pastor thought of sharing his heart with others.
He said "guys it's rare to get such an opportunity to be
among ourselves like this. It would be good if we looked into our lives and help each other with our weaknesses".
They all agreed to this. This pastor said "Gentlemen I need help! The people in my church give a lot of money every week. I started taking little by little but now I take a big chunk. I can't stop stealing from the church please pray for me. The day they will find out I will be fired"!
Another pastor said "brothers your sins are better than
mine! I have slept with every woman in the church including married women. As preach my eyes hover over the congregation looking for the next prey. If this is discovered people will not fire me, they will kill me!"
The last pastor's feet were shaking as they were talking.
They thought he had a big story to tell. He stood up and said "My brothers my problem is gossip! I can't sit anymore. I have to share this to others! I will be back.

THINK ABOUT ALL THESE & DECIDE
why do we sleep in school, but stay awake through a 3hrs movie? why is it so hard, to talk about GOD, but so easy to talk about sex? why is it so easy to ignore a GODLY tagged bulletin, yet we repost the nasty ones? why is it so easy to purchase beer and drugs? but so hard to donate 25 cents for a charity? why is it so easy to worship a celebrity? but very difficult to engage with GOD? Why is it more easy to believe that man came from monkeys rather than he was created in the image of GOD? think about it, are you going to repost this? are you going to ignore it cause you think you'll get laughed at? repost this as 'DONT READ IF IMMATURE............SERIOUSLY. '80% of you wont repost this. the Lord said if you deny me in front of your friends, i will deny you in front of my father
MONEY FLOW
It is a slow day in the East Texas town of Madisonville.
It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted.
Times are tough, everybody is in debt and everybody lives on credit.
On this particular day a rich tourist from the East is driving through town.
He enters the only hotel in the sleepy town and lays a hundred dollar bill on the desk stating he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one to spend the night.
As soon as the man walks up the stairs, the hotel proprietor takes the hundred dollar bill and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher.
The butcher takes the $100 and runs down the street to pay his debt to the pig farmer.
The pig farmer then takes the $100 and heads off to pay his debt to the supplier of feed and fuel.
The guy at the Farmer's Co-op takes the $100 and runs to pay his debt to the local prostitute, who has also been facing hard times and has lately had to offer her "services" on credit.
The hooker runs to the hotel and pays off her debt with the $100 to the hotel proprietor, paying for the rooms that she had rented when she brought clients to that establishment.
The hotel proprietor then lays the $100 bill back on the counter so the Rich traveler will not suspect anything.
At that moment the traveler from the East walks back down the stairs, after inspecting the rooms.
He picks up the $100 bill and states that the rooms are not satisfactory...... Pockets the money and walks out the door and leaves town.
No one earned anything. However the whole town is now out of debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism.
THE CHRISTIAN AND THE ATHEIST
An atheist was taking a walk through the woods. "What majestic trees! What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals!" he said to himself. As he continued walking he heard a rustling in the bushes and saw a 7 foot grizzly charging towards him. He ran as fast as he could but tripped and fell on the ground. He saw the bear raising his paw to take a swipe at him. At that instant the atheist cried out: "Oh my God....!"
Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
It was then that a bright light shone upon the man and a voice came out of the sky saying: "You deny my existence for all of these years, told others I didn't exist and even credit creation to a cosmic accident. Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer?"
The atheist looked directly into the light and said: "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask you to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps you could make the BEAR a Christian"
"Very well," said the voice.
The light went out, and the sounds of the forest resumed.
And then the bear lowered his paw, bowed his head and spoke:
"Lord, bless this food which I am about to receive and for which I am truly thankful, Amen."
Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.

PROFANITIES
A crusty old man walks into a local church and says to the secretary, “I would like to join this damn church.”
The astonished woman replies, “I beg your pardon, sir. I must have misunderstood you. What did you say?”
“Listen up, damn it. I said I want to join this damn church!” “I’m very sorry sir, but that kind of language is not tolerated in this church.”
The secretary leaves her desk and goes into the pastor’s study to inform him of her situation.
The pastor agrees that the secretary does not have to listen to that foul language.
They both return to her office and the pastor asks the old man, “Sir, what seems to be the problem here?”
“There is no damn problem,” the man says. “I just won $36 million in the damn lottery and I want to join this damn church to get rid of some of this damn money.”
“I see,” said the pastor. “And is this bitch giving you a hard time?”
LAUNDRY COMPLAINT
A woman was unhappy with the way her laundry was done at the local laundry, so she wrote a note and put it in the bag with the next collection of soiled clothes:
“Use more soap on panties!”
She got the clean laundry back, and was still dissatisfied with the results, so the following week she enclosed another note:
“Use more soap on panties!”
The laundryman became very annoyed, and when her clean laundry was delivered, it contained a note from him:
“I use plenty soap on panties!!!
Use more paper on ass!!!”

INTERESTING TRIVIA ON IRAQ
Just a forwarded message. Pls check if this is true yourself.
Read down to the very bottom highlighted in green , IT'LL GIVE YOU GOOSEBUMPS!!!
You don't want to miss this! ((*_*) )
VERY INTERESTING-
1. The Garden of Eden was in Iraq
2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq , was the cradle of civilization!
3. Noah built the ark in Iraq
4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq
5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq !
6. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq !
7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq
8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq
9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the ten tribes of Israel
10. Amos cried out in Iraq !
11 Babylon , which is in Iraq , destroyed Jerusalem
12. Daniel was in the lion's den in Iraq !
13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been in Iraq also as the fourth person in the Fiery Furnace!)
14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the 'writing on the wall' in Iraq
15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, carried the Jews captive into Iraq
16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq ....
17. The wise men were from Iraq ...
18. Peter preached in Iraq ...
19. The 'Empire of Man' described in Revelation is called Babylon , which was a city in Iraq !
And you have probably seen this one: Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible.
But do you know which nation is second?
It is Iraq !
However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible.
The names used in the Bible are Babylon , Land of Shinar , and Mesopotamia . The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris
And Euphrates Rivers
The name Iraq , means country with deep roots.
Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible..
No other nation, except Israel , has more history and prophecy associated
With it than Iraq
And also, This is something to think about: Since America is typically represented by an eagle.
Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages ...
The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)
Koran ( 9:11 ) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah;
And there was peace.
(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?!

GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS
You might have read or heard about this before. It is a beautiful story and
makes you understand that things happen for a reason…..
The new pastor and his wife, newly assigned
to their first ministry, was to reopen a church
in suburban Brooklyn. They arrived in early October
excited about their opportunities. When they saw
their church, it was very run down and needed
much work. They set a goal to have everything
done in time to have their first service
on Christmas Eve.
They worked hard, repairing pews, plastering walls,
painting, etc. They were ahead of the schedule and
on December 18 they were just about finished.
On December 19 a terrible tempest - a driving
rainstorm hit the area and lasted for two days.
On the 21st, the pastor went over to the church.
His heart sank when he saw that the roof had
leaked, causing a large area of plaster about
20 feet by 8 feet to fall off the front wall of the
sanctuary just behind the pulpit, beginning about
head high.
The pastor cleaned up the mess on the floor,
and not knowing what else to do but postpone
the Christmas Eve service, headed home.
On the way he noticed that a local business was
having a flea market type sale for charity so he
stopped in. One of the items was a beautiful,
handmade, ivory colored, crocheted tablecloth
with exquisite work, fine colors and a Cross
embroidered right in the center. It was just
the right size to cover up the hole in the front
wall. He bought it and headed back to the church.
By this time it had started to snow. An older
woman running from the opposite direction was
trying to catch the bus.. She missed it. The pastor
invited her to wait in the warm church for
the next bus 45 minutes later.
She sat in a pew and paid no attention to the pastor
while he got a ladder, hangers, etc., to put
up the tablecloth as a wall tapestry. The pastor
could hardly believe how beautiful it looked and
it covered up the entire problem area.
Then he noticed the woman walking down the center
aisle. "Pastor,” she asked, "where did you get that tablecloth?"
The pastor explained. The woman asked him to check
the lower right corner to see if the initials ‘EBG’ were crocheted into
it there. They were. These were the initials of the woman, and she had
made this tablecloth 35 years before, in Austria
The woman could hardly believe it as the pastor
told how he had just gotten the tablecloth. The
woman explained that before the war she and
her husband were well-to-do people in Austria .
When the Nazis came, she was forced to leave.
Her husband was going to follow her the next week.
He was captured, sent to prison and never saw her
husband or her home again.
The pastor wanted to give her the tablecloth;
but she made the pastor keep it for the church.
The pastor insisted on driving her home, that
was the least he could do.. She lived on the other
side of Staten Island and was only in Brooklyn
for the day for a housecleaning job.
What a wonderful service they had on Christmas
Eve. The church was almost full. The music and the
spirit were great. At the end of the service, the
pastor and his wife greeted everyone at the door
and many said that they would return.
One older man, whom the pastor recognized
from the neighborhood continued to sit in one of the
pews and stare, and the pastor wondered why he
wasn't leaving.
The man asked him where he got the tablecloth on
the front wall because it was identical to one
that his wife had made years ago when
they lived in Austria before the war and how
could there be two tablecloths so much alike.
He told the pastor how the Nazis came, how he
forced his wife to flee for her safety and he was
supposed to follow her, but he was arrested and
put in a prison.. He never saw his wife or his home
again all the 35 years in between.
The pastor asked him if he would allow him to
take him for a little ride. They drove to Staten
Island and to the same house where the pastor
had taken the woman three days earlier.
He helped the man climb the three flights of
stairs to the woman's apartment, knocked on
the door and he witnessed the greatest Christmas
reunion he could ever imagine.
I was told that this is a true Story - submitted by Pastor Rob Reid
who says God does work in mysterious ways..
I asked the Lord to bless you as I prayed for
you today, to guide you and protect you as you go
along your way. His love is always with you, His
promises are true, and when we give Him all our
cares you know He will see us through.
So when the road you're traveling on seems
difficult at best.. Just remember I'm here
praying and God will do the rest.
When there is nothing left but God, that is when
you find out that God is all you need.
Father, bless all my friends and family in what
ever it is that You know they may be needing this
day! May their life be full of your peace,
prosperity and power as they seek to have a
closer relationship with You. Amen.
SMART SPENDER TEST - GOOD READING
Smart Spender Test
By Alvin T. Tabañag, RFP
Author of “Kaya Mo, Pinoy! 12 Steps to Build Wealth on Any Income”
When it comes to building wealth and achieving financial security how much you spend (and save) is more important than how much you earn. Even if you earn P100,000 a month, you could still end up in financial trouble if you also spend P100,000 (or more) monthly.
Here’s a simple test to see if you are a smart spender or you are spending yourself to financial death. Simply answer each question with “Yes” or “No.”
1. Bumibili ako ng mga damit o gamit tuwing may sale para makatipid?
2. Pinapalitan ko ang aking TV at iba pang mga appliances tuwing kada 3 - 5 taon o bumibili ako ng bagong cell phone taun-taon?
3. Malakas akong manigarilyo o madalas uminom o mahilig kumain sa labas?
4. May nakalaan akong budget para sa lotto, sweepstakes, ending at ibang pang laro na may premyo?
5. Ang mga binibili kong damit at gamit ay may mga tatak o kilalang brand na mamahalin?
6. Nahihirapan akong bayaran ng buo ang aking credit card at iba pang utang sa loob ng isang buwan?
7. Nauubos o kinakapos ang pera ko tuwing Disyembre o kung kailang may selebrasyon?
8. Kapag nawalan ako ng trabaho bukas, mahihirapan akong tustusan ang pangangailangan ng aking pamilya sa susunod na anim na buwan?
9. Mas masaya ako kung mas marami akong pera na pwedeng gastusin?
10. Nahihirapan akong mag-ipon o wala akong perang pwedeng maipon buwan-buwan?
What your score reveals about your spending habits: (Give 1 point for every “Yes” answer)
0 to 2 points
Magaling ka sa pagtitipid. Kayang-kaya mong mag-ipon at magpundar ng yaman para sa mas magandang kinabukasan.
3 to 5 points
Naiintindihan mo ang halaga ng pagtitipid pero pwede mo pang galingan para makapag-ipon ng mas malaki.
6 to 8 points
Mag-ingat! Baka mabaon ka sa utang. Nahihirapan kang kontrolin ang iyong paggastos. Dapat matuto kang magtipid at mag-ipon bago mahuli ang lahat.
9 to 10 points
Kamag-anak ka yata ni Asyong Aksaya. Sobra ka kung gumastos. Kapag nagpatuloy ang ganitong paraan ng paghawak at paggastos ng pera, lulubog ka sa utang at malalagay sa sa alanganin ang kinabukasan ng iyong pamilya.
If you are financially sick now, nurse yourself back to financial health by spending your money wisely.

EATING FRUITS AND DRINKING WATER GUIDELINES
FYI – Good info
* We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It's not so easy as you think....
* It's important to know how and when to eat.
WHAT IS THE CORRECT WAY OF EATING FRUITS?
* It means not eating fruits after your meals!
* Fruits should be eaten on an empty stomach.
* If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.
FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD.
*Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so.
* In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.
* So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You have heard people complaining every time...
>I ate water-melon I burped.
>When I ate durian my stomach bloated up....
>When I ate banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc...
*Actually all these will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach.
* The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat!
*Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes all these will not happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.
*There is no such thing as some fruits like orange and lemon are acidic because all fruits become alkaline in our body according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did a research on this matter.
* If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.
*When you need to drink fruit juice, drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT From the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste.
* Cooking destroys all the vitamins but eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice... If you should drink juice then drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it.
* You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body...
* Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!
KIWI: Tiny but mighty.
* This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, Vitamin E & fiber. Its Vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.
APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away?
*Although an apple has a low Vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of Vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke..
STRAWBERRY: Protective fruit
* Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessels - clogging free radicals.
ORANGE: Sweetest medicine.
* Taking 2 -4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as it lessens the risk of colon cancer..
WATERMELON: Coolest
* Thirst Quencher composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, w/c helps boost our immune system.
*Also a key source of lycopene-the cancer fighting oxidant.
*Other nutrients found in watermelon are Vit. C & Potassium.
GUAVA & PAPAYA: Vit.. C Top awards
* They are the clear winners for their high Vit. C content.
* Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation.
*Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for the eyes.
DRINKING/TAKING IN WATER = taking plenty of water is advisable but beware how you take it!!!
*Cold water after meal = Cancer! Can u believe this?
*For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It's nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer.
*It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. A serious note about heart attacks
HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE: (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)
1. Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.
2. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.
3. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware.
4. The more we know, the better chance we could survive. A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to others, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.
Read this. It could save your life!! Let's say it's 6:15 pm and you're driving home. Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home.
Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE
*Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
*However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.
*A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm.
* In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
Tell to as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!
