Without a strong foundation in my faith I would crumble.  It keeps me sane, gives me hope and encourages me to get pass the negative circumstances that I face day in and day out.  If I’m having a bad day at work or am in a financial bind it helps to pray and ask for the help and strength I need to get through.  It is hard at times to admit I can not do it alone, but I am so thankful I have someone who can take that burden away from me and carry the load for a while.

    A community/city has to be alert to a fire possibility as the damage/loss to men, materials and resources often turn out to be staggering. It takes little time for a fire to spread and cause complete wipe-off. A fire marshall has an important role for tacking a fire-situation. He is actually a volunteer from the workforce only; he undergoes special and specific training, equipped to take steps to mitigate damages of a potential fire. He acts as an intermediary between firefighters and normal persons. Informing the authorities, interacting with the staff, following safety practices and laid-out rules is his paramount duty. He is abreast of the accessibility of fire marshall equipment, has mock fire drills conducted to keep staff well-informed and alert. He ensures everyone understands what to do in a fire-situation so that injuries, loss of lives and material are minimized and fighters can tackle the fire hassle-free. So it is crystal clear that having a well trained fire marshall is not a luxury but a must for any and every community to prevent fire firstly and then enable tackling it later in case of a fire-breakout.

  • Over the years they have been advancing with technology and it keeps getting better.  I love how you can be on top of a mountain in Denver, Colorado and talk to a friend who is serving our country in Afghanistan.  There are a lot of other great inventions, but the telephone has made our lives much simpler.  Before phones word had to travel from person to person or through a letter sometimes taking days and now you can pick up a phone and instantly transmit, whatever message it is you need to get across, in a matter of seconds.

    I would go backward to the pre-contact Americas because I would be interested to see how my ancestors lived before contact with pioneers and the establishment of America. It is a way of life that was idealized to me while I was growing up and engrained into my mind as the best era of our history. I would welcome the opportunity to live closely with the natural world and observe a place I know well before there was any development. I would also be interested I experiencing a nomadic lifestyle and understanding the country I live in at its inception.

    I would  confront  the man my mother had an affair with and left her family for. Despite the fact that it was clearly her that had the obligation to us and not him, I really resent him a lot and would like an opportunity as an adult who has sifted through the consequences of the decision they made together to explain what a devastating effect his choices had on people that he never knew or thought about. It would not change the way things unfolded or the way that I feel about them know but I think it would be therapeutic to explain to him that he had a profound and negative effect on my life without ever having thought of me or met me.

  • Who We Were

    I miss my brothers and sisters. They are all alive and well but they are grown now, and are not the childhood playmates that they were. I miss my family in general, and the first thing that comes to mind is that I miss having dinner with them. I can have dinner with those people, but they are adults now. I am an adult now. Our parents are divorced, some of our extended family is dead, and things have just changed a lot, so much so that it would be impossible to replicate the dinners that are in my memory.

    My goals in life are to raise my children, live to an old age, have a successful career, and to travel. I have partially accomplished all of them and am on track to finish strong. I hope that I meet them but it is impossible to know for sure.  I know that if I can influence the outcomes of any of those goals that I will achieve them all. However, I also understand that life throws us curves and that as people change, goals change and that as time goes on, sometimes old dreams are forgotten and the life led by chance takes its course.

    Dorgard are the basically devices made for opening or closing the door automatically, it is quite useful in home, offices, schools, and big multinationals buildings. the main use of dorgard is to open the door automatically after hearing the fire alarm, and that helps very much when buildings or schools get fire, another use of dorgard for doors is that it maintains the strength of door, and makes a smooth closing of the door, if dorgard id present on the door we can leave the door after opening and it will slowly get closed.

    If I could relive the last five years of my life, the only thing I would change would be financial. I would have earned more money, planned for my spouse to earn more money, and put more in savings. I would not change any of the other things that have happened, good or bad, because I truly feel that life has taught me that we are who we are because of the experiences we have. I understand the temptation to revive a lost friend or take back a conversation or action that had unintended consequences, but I really believe that our experiences are preordained and crucially important to our selves and futures.

  • Time

    I would certainly regret anything I had done to contribute to my death, and probably regret those the most deeply if the circumstance applied. I would regret the loss of relationships with former romantic partners and close friends from the past.  I haven’t done anything to reconnect with those people because time, distance, and emotional entanglements would make the process precarious. However, there are people from my past who always brought an easy smile to my face and I would regret not having more time with them. If I only had two weeks to live I would spend every single second of those two weeks with my husband, children, and siblings. I think I would even stay up to watch them sleep.
