Legal Matters

Lawsuits are serious legal matters where the client wants reimbursement for his sufferings or loss of money by getting a paid lawyer to litigate his case in court.
For your information, Actos is an oral diabetes medicine that has been shown by recent studies to lead to serious injuries such as heart attacks, heart failure, and an increased risk of bladder cancer, which can result in an Actos lawsuit. Pioglitazone, the chemical name for Actos was sold under the trade names Actos, ActoplusMet, Competact and Duetact.

So beware of what you are buying off the shelves from the pharmacy in your neighborhood. Some of the medication that we take may have adverse side effects. So it is better to do some research on the internet first before purchasing that medication or as prescribed by your doctor who may be unaware of the lawsuits. Hence, it is good to seek second or even third opinion from the medical experts if you can afford it. You can never take your health for granted and trust to consume every medication given to you safely.

Some of the side effects may take years to be discovered by clients or patients. By then it may be too late for you already. So, be in the know all the time as knowledge is power and brings good health. Some of the medication may cause obesity or numbness of the peripherals. Others may have worse side effects.

Skipping Church Today

Later on, I will be going with my colleague to Kedah to meet up with a client and have to skip church service today. My friend has been tithing to church every week in the region of 4 figures in RM. On a side note, whenever she tithes faithfully and attend church service, the messages by the pastors or deacons are exalting and encouraging with much grace. But whenever she skips church due to business and did not tithe the RM 1k per week, the church management is not too happy about it and start preaching about condemnation and law! So, money certainly speaks the loudest here in my local church where the management seems to take our tithes for granted and expects it to be given faithfully every week! Now where was the humble attitude once upon a time??

Gambling is a disease

Gambling is a disease. I have seen my own close relatives lost a lot of money due to gambling. My very own paternal grandma lost a fortune in gambling. Being educated until primary six, the only way she knows to make money is through gambling in the hope of striking it rich. But the end result is that she lost a fortune and had to hawk laksa in the streets just to bring up 4 children by herself – it is unfortunate that her husband passed away early in his thirties due to sickness. My own uncle lost a house and now had to rent an apartment in the low cost flats all due to gambling. So, no, for me, I am against gambling at all costs. I have seen the hardships suffered by my relatives due to foolishness in being addicted to gambling. From a life of abundance, they had to lead a life of poverty and living at subsistence level and practise austerity.

Missed Church for 2 weeks already

I have skipped church service for 2 weeks in a row now due to the pain on my left thigh. And I have visited the doctor 3 times already with an injection during the second visit. In 3 days time, I will be flying off to Macau, Shenzhen and Hong Kong for a 5 days 4 nights tour with my 2 younger sisters. I just hope that my left leg will recover on time for the tour and not having my sisters push me around in a wheel chair. And to rent a wheel chair from Royal Plaza Hotel in Hong Kong cost RM 1,500 or Hong Kong dollars of $3,000.00. Everything is money and you need to have lots of cash to tour and be comfortable during the visit.

God has Blessed me

God has indeed blessed me with a comfortable life - a secure job to work at home, generous helpful friends who make your day, enough to eat and a roof over my head. I also live in a secure country where there is no uprising unlike the Middle East. This is a democratic country and you get to vote for your leaders. We don't have leaders sitting on the throne for half a century, embezzling billions of dollars from the national coffer. But I am not sure about Dr Mahathir's time - nobody knows what has happened to the money and the country was almost bankrupt during his tenure! Thank goodness this mamak blabber mouth politician is no longer the Prime Minister! He knows when to step down!

Tithing is a Personal Matter

You cannot force everyone to tithe or coerce church members to continue tithing. People have their own reasons not to tithe but give offering instead. So, it is up to the creativity of the church management to come up with ways to make more money like opening a Christian kindergarten for their church building fund. Not every one has the revelation to tithe or give 10% of your income.

Blessed to Work from Home

I know of many friends and ex-colleagues who keep job hopping and can never get confirmed beyond the probation period. That's because they are either lazy, have no initiative or simply darn late for work! They also could not work in a team and think that they are the boss. Because of this wrong attitude, they cannot find permanent employment! Unless they are lucky with rich parents to support them, most of them have to live below the poverty line with barely enough to feed themselves.
