That’s where you will have learned the most, grew the most, and that journey is what’s important. The lessons, experience that emerged from your losses make a solid foundation that make your success so much stronger and allow you to appreciate it much more. |
May 21, the End of World? It’s Never Too Late.By Editor - May 21st, 2011 |
 |
|
Written by: Gayathri R. I’m generally not one to believe in superstitions, so the claim that today (May.21) is “Judgment day” and that the world will end in the “Greatest Earthquake Ever” was not one I truly believed. This isn’t the first time a group prophesized the world was ending on a particular day. Remember Y2K? Or the end of the Mayan calendar? Maybe we just have wait until next year for 2012? |

The Writing of HistoryBy Editor - December 15th, 2010 |
 |
|
We live in a world where we are surrounded by information. The knowledge that is available in this world is available to us readily, in a useable form, and timely. Information is available to us in more books than we can read, in more online databases that we can count, and in highly powerful and efficient search engines than we could have ever imagined. However, knowledge was not always passed down through print as we do today. |
