Making peace with animals
Villagers living near a national park in Tanzania were complaining about elephants damaging their crops. WSPA human-animal conflict project staff taught the villagers how to protect their crops and keep the elephants out of their gardens. They soaked thin rope in pepper flavoured and old engine oil and fenced off their gardens. This simple technique kept the elephants out. Now they co-exist peacefully. Deforestation in Tanzania is pushing the elephants and humans to live closer together.

Feng Shui and your child
Kids will be going back to school in a few days. How can we, as parents, help them do better in school? Start with their bedroom.
If your child is hyper and needs grounding add dark colours to their bedroom. A dark brown rug on the floor would be a great way to ground them. Also pay attention to the colour of the walls and the art/decorations you have on the walls. Are they soothing or adding to the hyperactivity?
If your child is shy and quiet, then use bright colours and some red to charge them. Also include red or orange pieces in their wardrobe. A few shirts in those colours will go a long way to bring them out of their shell.
Try it.

75 years left? Really?
I watched a documentary on TV a few days ago in which scientists from different disciplines had ideas about the end of the world. They all had different ideas and time lines, one in particular that caught my attention predicted that life on Earth would end in about 75 years.
Really?
I don't subscribe to any of these theories for the simple reason that God is protecting Earth and life on it. However, this does not mean that we should not take care of the environment and our natural resources, or make peace with each other as nations so that we don't have to use nukes to blow each other up to dust.
Humanity is here to learn lessons and ascend to a higher vibration; not blow up in some cosmic accident or blow up the planet by our own hand.
