Let Food be Your Medicine
Dino is pleased to introduce a new section on this blog called ‘Instant Cure for Health’, which will bring to you several tips for good health each week. Over the years Dino’s mom has collected hundreds of natural home remedies for simple problems such as headaches, coughs, colds, skin rashes, digestive disorders and much more. Her friends and family often consult her for these quick fixes which could be as simple as adding a pinch of cinnamon to your tea or something slightly undesirable as scrubbing a banana peel on your skin. In any case, these remedies are very effective and may produce instant results. Almost all the ingredients can be found in your kitchen, if not you can find it at the nearest supermarket. Storing some of these ingredients at home will save you the time and stress of running to the pharmacy if you suddenly suffer from midnight indigestion or a severe tooth ache.

Believe It and You Will Achieve It
In this video, Dino shares a simple process that we could use to clear out limiting beliefs.
It's never too late to appreciate
Appreciation is so simple, yet so difficult. In this video, Dino reminds us how important it is to appreciate every moment of our lives, and shares his experience during his eye surgeries.
Dino blogs via video..
Today, Dino is pleased to introduce a new video section on his blog. Traditional blogging seems to be phasing out as people seem to be more interested in video casts and podcasts. We just don't have the time to read through so much information. If a minute or minute and a half video can deliver the message, why bother with all the details? You can always look it up at a later date if necessary. And, besides it's always much more entertaining to watch a video than just read static information on a webpage.
Therefore, starting now, Dino will deliver his blog entries via a short video clip like the one below,
and hopes that you enjoy the new format, although, occasionally there may be some text entries.
In any case, Dino hopes that you will enjoy this adventure, as much as he does.
That's all for now, thank you, and have a nice day.
I get knocked down, but I get up again
With a patch in one eye, and the other eye too weak from the pain, Dino felt like a wounded bird that had just lost its wings. One week, he was soaring above the clouds, and today it took a nose dive and hit the ground. True friends and family called and visited with words of motivation and offered their genuine support, while others noticing a wounded bird on the ground decided to trample it by immature comments and worthless advice.
Lesson: If we do not 
have a complete understanding of a situation, it is better off that we ask and learn about it before we downpour our so-called expertise upon anyone. Furthermore, when someone is in pain and drugged up on medication, don’t tell them how handsome they look, or invite them to watch a movie with someone twice their age. Speak with them as a mature adult and not as three year old child who had just lost a tooth.
An even greater lesson to learn from this situation is that we do not have the power to control the thoughts or words of others; all we can do is to monitor the way we react or respond to such behavior. It is difficult to avoid striking out at such folks when your inner state of being is hijacked by large doses of medication and its side effects. However, by simply reminding ourselves that our reaction and state of mind will affect us much more than the other in this situation, we can easily avoid it.
