Forever Holding Your Piece for Peace?

In my earlier posts I said that nothing is taboo in Jeny’s Closet. Except politics. I take that back. Nothing is taboo in Jeny’s Closet, period. Too long have I been in a society where to speak up warrants getting into trouble. With your boss, with the law. Anyone or anybody who deems to think that they are off the higher authority. I am not one who loves confrontation or for that matter stirring up a revolution but I do like to think that when an injustice occurs or something is just not right, you stand up for it. You stand up for it not to stir trouble but just because it is the right thing to do. I like to think that we all have something to say and policy makers and laws need to know that. Any changes made affects us, doesn’t it? If...

7 Ways to Pull Yourself Together

From time to time, we all get a little down, maybe even a little depressed. Maybe we are feeling overwhelmed, or feel bad because we’re not doing well with our goals. There are many reasons for feeling down, and I’m not qualified to discuss all of them, their implications, or clinical treatment. What I can talk about are some things that have worked for me. So God help me, last month has been pretty rough on me. I won’t get into details but lets just say it was so bad I had to put writing on my blog on hold because I was feeling it a little too much. Feeling a little depressed can interfere with achieving our goals. We know we should be doing something, but we just don’t feel like doing anything. This can last for a long time if you don’t...

I can Copy, Right?? Copyrights Explained

I blog (duh.) in case you don’t notice. So I know how frustrating it is to see someone else copying my blog content word for word and not giving me due credit for the chain of thoughts, research or just the fact that I’m staring into space for an hour to come up with a content I find useful or interesting. I may write poorly but it is still my piece of work. Something got to be right if someone is using it still, right? Not that I am hard for credits.I am no lawyer or law student so finding simple explanations for what exactly is ‘copyright’ is a task unto itself. Haven’t you wanted to for once claim defense on your piece of work only to be thrown legal jargons you get even more confused with? No wonder lawyers make a lot of money. My take,...

What are your 43 things?

I stumbled upon 43 things recently and although I don't use it on a daily basis I love that it forces me to think about what I wanted to achieve in my life. I think about I want today and as the day progresses it reminds me to take small actions to achieve them in a small way. That way it doesn't become a 5 or a 10 year goal because I never like to plan it that long. Also, I don't know if I'll still be here tomorrow.The cool thing is you can look at other people’s goals, and get ideas and inspiration from people all over the world. There are also other kinds of lists … books you’d like to read, places you want to visit, your lists of favorites or things you’d like to do before you die. Many possibilities, all of them good. If you haven't...
