    " The best way to predict your future is to create it." 
                                 Charles Ketterer



          


When you visually see your 100+ Goals_you are mentally seeing your future. Now, Create your future reality one goal at-a-time, one victory after another. 

Reflection: I completely agree with this quote because I think you're in charge of your own life and you're the only one to decide whether you will succeed or not. In addition, I also believe that you create yourself,and your're the only one who can stop yourself from not achieving. It all depends on you.

                                February 24, 2015

Whenever someone sneezes, you say "Bless You" or hear someone else say these words.

1.Why? Why are these words spoken?
I was told that back in the days, people believed that when someone sneezed it would mean your body and soul were separating. To keep the devil from stealing your soul when you sneezed, some would say, "(God) bless you"and this would prevent your soul getting stolen. 
However, I personally believe people say, "Bless you," simply because sneezing is a sign that you are sick and saying those words basically mean like, "Get better." 

2.When? When did this saying originate?

I was informed, that this saying came from Pope Gregory

 I the Great (AD 540-604) because he believed people

should instantly blessed in hope that they did not get 

infected by the bubonic plague.



3.How? How did this saying originate?

This saying then became popular around the country, it started spreading, and eventually everyone began to use it.

4.Where? Where did this saying originate?

I think this saying originated from a place called, "Syria," located in Asia.
