<description><![CDATA[I believe this is something most women out there are struggling with with age - rounder (sagging) bottoms. You can defy it with every single cell in your body. You can use the law of attraction to attract a firm albeit older bottom but it is going to hit you sooner and later. What is worse is that it doesn't just happen to women who have given birth or women who are rounder overall. It is just in our genes that our butts will sag. A sad fact of life.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[There are times that I am completely taken aback when reading what others are capable of. It is as if I have spent the past twelve years writing up stuff that means so little, made so little impact.

<description><![CDATA[Cancer is not the number killer in the world. And the reason is? Stress is. No matter how many of us out here would like to impress upon others that we are living the life and that everything is like a whole bed of roses, our kids don't raise our blood pressure, that we don't worry about finances and the car is working like clockwork all the time, I think most of us can safely assume that there is some form of dirt under the carpet.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Many people initially thought the world had gone bonkers when Twitter was introduced, with some folks clearly thinking that they would rather have their toenails pulled out, one by painful one, than to join in the 'Me Me MEEE!' behavior of Twitter. Frankly, it is kind of true that Twitter is one of the most narcissistic tools in the world but here is the deal - it is also through Twitter that we find old friends and make new ones.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[It's not that I am a fantastic writer. In fact, sometimes, I think I am far from it and can't help feeling humbled whenever a good writeup is stumbled-upon. But if people asked me what keeps my blogging going, I would say one thing. Talking to people. And reading. That's two things but they are related.

He excitedly jumps up and exclaims happily, 'You finally wrote a book?!' I shook my head sadly, 'No, silly. I did not. This book was written by someone else'.

<description><![CDATA[It is a funny thing but when people talk about being successful, the first yardstick (probably the ONLY yardstick) goes up - how rich are you? Do you have your own business? A million bucks in your bank account? Are you a CEO of some company? Do you own a closet full of shoes, clothes, jewelry, invitations to swanky affairs, and maybe a Jaguar in the garage? Having seen a side of this society, suffice to say that I now avoid it.]]></description>

But there are also things that we tweet about that make people say 'hang on, I think I want to hear what this person has to say'.]]></description>

Have you ever felt like you were better than anyone else in doing whatever it was that you did? Have you ever scoffed at the efforts of someone striving to do the same thing that you have done a million times over and not reach out to help them because you are afraid that they are going to be like you and be competition to you and you are going to lose your place?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[A good ad copywriter is someone who can and dares to put their foot out of the box of convention. Conventional ad copywriters don't make heads turn...this is a fact.
