YOU ARE NOT ALONE
Dear Muriel, Recently a lot of things have been sending me shooting down - every time I think, yes I have the plan - bammmmm - it goes stumbling down - again and again and again. Helllpppppppppp!
A) Sounds to me you are a little confused about the word ‘PLAN.’
Plan is usually defined as something you want to achieve.
Imagine you have a piece of furniture with 6 drawers one above the other. Write down what it is you want to achieve and the time span you require and put it in the top drawer.
Write down how you are going to achieve it, presumably it is something rational (in other words you do not have the desire to become an Astronaut but you have a fear of heights)! Put what you have written in the bottom drawer.
Then formulate each step you need to complete before you can achieve your goal, voila, you have a working plan. Put each step in the drawers above the bottom one. By the time you have worked out your plan, you will have a good idea if you have all the tools in place, and the time it will take you to reach and attain your goal.
Designing a plan is systematic; to achieve it you have to have a clear goal and a defined formula of how to reach it.
I wish you luck and the great sense of happiness your achievement will bring you.

Homeopathy In Sharm
When you visit the doctor, he will ask you what is wrong. "My foot hurts," you might say, and the doctor will lift the foot and look at it from all angles.
He has seen this before. Within 15 minutes, he will learn all of the details he needs to make a diagnosis. He will write on a pad, hand you a slip of paper, and you will hobble out the door. This is how medicine is done, right?
Why is it then, that for the same complaint, a homeopath will require that you sit in her office for at least an hour? Why will she ask you about your childhood, your dreams, your preferences for food, and so on?
What are these tiny white pills she has recommended you, and why do they have a name that sounds so strange?

Do You Believe In The Evil Eye?
Hello Muriel, Do you believe in the evil eye? Thanks, Mona
Dear Mona,
I don’t think it is about belief; it is more about respect and acceptance for other people’s beliefs. It is not about my opinion either as opinions become diluted with age.
The ‘Evil Eye’ is believed by many cultures to be able to cause bad luck or injury on the person to whom it is directed.
The concept and significance of it varies widely between cultures, but for me the psychodynamics are of ‘envy.’
It has been mentioned several times in the Bible and is also mentioned in the Koran.
