5 Money Habits That Will Help You Take Your Dream Vacation

                              http://www.glamour.com/story/5-money-habits-that-will-help-you-take-your-dream-vacation
                       Hey!Am back this time out not with a sad and depressing article but with some tips I have learnt about having the vacation of your dreams even when u don't have enough money. Vacation is that period of time you spent away from work or home and travel just go somewhere to relax and free your mind from the stress of work and other things.I love vacation but since I don't have enough money I decided to find out some things I can do to save up some money and how I spent the little money I have.First in order for you to have the vacation you have been dreaming for,u need to start learning how to save your money.In my opinion since you don't have enough,you can choose to open an account maybe call it "Vacation Trip account" where you can be putting the  little you get from your pay check. I believe this can help a lot.Secondly I believe controlling how much you send when u go shopping can also help. Some people go shopping and turn to buy what they don't really need thus wasting that money they would have saved to pay for the vacation of their dreams.Also,you have to keep a weekly money date.You need to push yourself to have a specific date to put money in you account as earlier said above and you have to respect that date.Finally,get some friends and share the idea with maybe they can help u follow and respect your goals in order to have a nice vacation someday.So to end it up,I hope these four tips helps someone who read my opinion on  money habits that will help you take the vacation of your dreams.

The benefits of paid leave for children are real,majority of research says.

http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/29/health/paid-leave-benefits-to-children-research/index.html?eref=rss_health
                           Taking a paid parental leave is as important as taking a vacation.From the article,I have learnt that the are both short and long term benefits,and all economic benefits involved in paid parental leaves.However,I found out the that the United States is that country that does not give paid parental leave.All I sat down wondering was why?Paid parental leave I think is very important both for moms and dads.One of the benefits is that the child get to be with her mom and they both can spend time together which creates a bond between them.With dads,a paid leave is equally important as it gives the dad time to take his child out to the park and have a father-child moment together as this helps the child know her dad better too.Secondly,I learnt that breast feeding is also a benefit to the child as she is gonna be protected from the risk of contracting so many diseases.Also it keeps mom safe from diseases like cancer and others when they breast feed.In my own opinion i equally think taking a paid parental leave can reduce the rate of depression in a country because i think the woman deserves to rest for a while before maybe going back to work.Thus,to conclude I think is very important and the United States companies and organisations should look forward in give paid parental leave to its workers.

African Politics.

http://www.sierraexpressmedia.com/?p=77722                                                                                                                               Africa is a continent with different countries in it.Politics in African continents as a whole has never been easy as that of other countries.I say so because in most of the countries in Africa,when a person is made president,he will never want to give chance for others when his time of rule expires. I believe when one becomes president,its a very good thing but also we all have to know there are others out there who can take over and improve on what the former one started but many will never see it in that way.I personally like what the African Union  thinks in this whole drama of African leaders not wanting to leave office. No one is meant to be president forever.When we look back to the days of Nelson Mandela who serves as a good example,we see he has gained so much respect today from many not only because he helped to bring South Africa's freedom but also because he was willing to give a chance for others who wished to rule and be in power.Many of our leaders are cruel and fail to know there is a time limit for everything.Many of them know they are wrong in what they are doing but pretend like they don't know.The same people who voted for them thinking they were the best leaders have been failed cause these leaders don't think about the development and growth of all these countries in Africa. Africa is changing and so are the minds of people changing.I think if these leaders ain't careful one day we will either their death bodies lying on the streets are the very people who put them in power will one day chase them out of power. African   politics and its leaders are not bad people to say but all we need them to do for us is to help finish and complete what other leaders didn't achieve or acquire.When we all look at the United States we see it has a maximum limit as to when a leader is to stay in power  and for how long one president can rule for.I think this is what these African leaders and union  needs to do by setting a limit as to when one leader is required to rule and the number of times that leader can be re-elected.Our leaders need to let our continent Africa grow and develop by letting or giving chance to others.

'Angela's beautiful life':one mom's struggle with mental illness.

                           http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/25/health/cnnphotos-angelas-beautiful-life/index.html?eref=rss_health
                                   Hey!Guess everyone will agree with me that ,having a family and dealing with an illness is often a very painful and sad experience.This  is always more hurting when you have kids,as you wont want your children to see you going through such.I am just from reading this article about a woman who has a husband and four kids,and she is going through a mental illness.Oh! what a sad story as tears fill my eyes while i was reading it.Its not always that easy to know you are sick and at same time have to live a normal life because you need to be strong for your family.I think this lady is very brave to be able to deal with her mental illness and with the support from her husband,she has braved it all these years.I equally think she deciding to share her life experience with others is a good thing she has done as this will help those who are mentally ill to learn a lot from her.In my opinion i just love the fact that she has opted to help others know and be aware about mental illness is a good thing she has done in order to help the community.I now know that not every illness has to put you in bed but with your illness,it can cause you to be of help to many.So with this,i encourage everyone out there not only those who suffer from mental illness but also a lot more people that,we should all follow the example from Angela and help make our community  and all those who suffer from this variety of illnesses to be comfortable and live longer.

Logan tom continues volleyball career in Indonesia.

                                    http://olympics.nbcsports.com/2016/02/16/logan-tom-volleyball-olympics/
                                Hey guys,am back again with yet another interesting story.This time it is about my favorite sport.Volleyball is a worldwide sport and I love playing it.This game is  an indoor and outdoor sport. Beach volleyball is considered as the outdoor sport. Its a very interesting and lovely  sport and played by both men and women. Logan tom is a woman, who has made a name for herself in the history of American volleyball. She is one of those who has seen that, volleyball cannot only be played for fun but can also be used as a career, which she has made good use of the opportunity. Logan has decided to play for a team in Indonesia after going through a lot of experiences in her past volleyball life. Been a star is not a days job . Tom has worked her way in becoming that star and wherever she is today is because of her hard work in the past years.In my opinion,she going to Indonesia to continue with her career  in the volleyball field is a bold and encouraging step she has taken,as this is going to help her go higher highs.She has been a good and wonderful player and I know her former teammates are going to miss her but her going to Indonesia is equally going to be a stepping stone for the Indonesian team as they are going to be receiving a world known athlete. Finally,this transfer of hers saddest my heart because am not going to be seeing her in the Olympic games this year and i believe that's what many others who enjoy watching this game will be feeling too.Hope this helps all those who are struggling in using the sport as a career.I hope one day am like her and even play better than she does.

Zika virus

http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/12/health/zika-olympics-threat/ 
         
    The Zika virus is a viral infection caused by  mosquito bite. Many have been affected and many others are dying too. The virus is gradually spreading to different countries such as Colombia, and El Salvador. Brazil has the most cases of infected persons and with its outbreak,there is a doubt that the Olympics might not hold.With the outbreak of this virus, I think the Olympics in Brazil should be postponed or cancelled.I  say so because most people and travelers get engaged with different activities and in the cause of this,can either get it from someone or they can transmit it to another. Equally, due to the fact that this Zika virus has no medication or vaccines to cure or treat it,makes it worse as researchers and many companies are still working on the vaccines.My opinion concerning this situation is that this year the Olympics should be hosted by another country.This will therefore give scientists and researchers enough time to research and figure out exactly what vaccine and what medications to produce that will help fight the virus.Many people also think that since the virus is caused by mosquito bites,participants of the Olympics should take with them malaria medications to prevent the infection and also vaccinate themselves against yellow fever.That can help to a certain extend but i think since that is not the only virus affecting the Brazilian community,its might not work as the other viruses could equally be transmissible.As such,the Olympics to be be held at Rio in Brazil this 2016, should either be cancelled or moved to a different country so as to reduce the risk of transmission.Not only is the Zika  virus the only infectious disease in Brazil. There are other viruses that have been there,so with this,in my own opinion,the Olympics should be cancelled  and moved to another country.
