Testing for humility

Add comment June 5th, 2006

You can test your own humility here. I took the test, and my results are:

Your score = 85

What does your score mean?

You are the humblest of the humble. According to your test results, you don’t have an arrogant bone in your body. Maybe you just don’t give a fig whether you impress others, or simply don’t feel the need to toot your own horn. Hopefully, though, you really do like yourself! A lack of self-confidence can lead to all kinds of problems like depression, unhappy relationships and a fear of going after the things we really want. If you do have a high self-esteem but just prefer keeping that knowledge to yourself, good for you! Being humble is certainly more attractive than being cocky and full of yourself. The bottom line, which you seem to recognize, is: the way you feel about who you are is more important than what anyone else thinks.

6.6.06 - The end of the world?

2 comments June 5th, 2006

I’m sure you’ve heard the stories about 666 being the number of ‘the beast’, of the antichrist, or of the devil.  There’s stories that 6th of June, 2006, is when the antichrist makes his presence known, and it’s the ‘end of the world’. 

Today is the 6th day of the 6th month in 2006.  Right now, for me, in New Zealand.  In America, it’s still the 5th, and will be for quite a lot of hours yet.  The 6th hasn’t happened.

The question I have is….

The Secret

Deidre and I watched the documentary called The Secret on Saturday night. It’s about the Law of Attraction.

The Law of Attraction is a universal law, which you might also know as ‘like attracts like’. Whatever is on your mind is what becomes a reality in your life. As was said in the show, “Thoughts… become… things…” The trick is to think of things you want, instead of the things you don’t want.

Terrorism budget cuts because of admin punishments?

1 comment June 3rd, 2006

The anti-terrorism budgets handed out by the Department of Homeland Security were cut by 40% because the city faxed their application instead of emailing it. So to punish NYC for their administrative error, their budget was cut by 40%. The faxed form was fine, nothing was wrong with it. Apparently, if they had sent it by email, they would have got 100% of their budget. But they were bad children, and so they must be punished by reducing the budget and letting terrorists have an easier time of attacking the city.
