We all procrastinate in one form or another. Either we put things off or say that we'll do them later. If we adopt the attitude of do it now, it can make a tremendous difference in our lives. Sometimes fear stops us, sometimes guilt stops us, sometimes it's just plain laziness that stops us; but, no matter what we blame on the fact that we're not doing it now, the fact is that we're still not doing it now. So, if you are interested in overcoming procrastination; keep reading and start living in the NOW.

The word Deepawali is derived from two Sanskrit words, "Deep" and "Aavali". Among these, Deep means "Diya" (or light which represents knowledge) and Awali means "chain". That is, Deepawali means given or series of lights. It is also called Deepotsav or Deepavali or Diwali. Of these, the term Diwali is most commonly used. The meaning of Deepawali also reflects the meaning of the name of Bharat (India). Bha means "light and knowledge" and Rat means "devoted". Deepawali means a series of lamp i.e. series of knowledge and Bharat means dedicated to knowledge and light.

Is critical essay writing art or science? It's both.

If you're in or anywhere near the state of Arizona, you had better be prepared to show your papers to prove your status in the state of Arizona.

A site on which one can publish one's fiction. The social networking aspect of the site seems to be limited to the posting of reviews. Having not yet registered an account on this site, I don't know whether or not one can screen the reviews of one's stories. As each story page seems to link to a page of reviews of the story appearing on that page, if the answer to this question is "no", then what one would have, in effect, would be a guestbook that one couldn't moderate, with all of the possibilities for abuse that creates. I don't know that's the case, but I also don't know that's not the case, so I'll set up that account in a few days and learn more. I just didn't want somebody blindly stumbling into trouble, thinking that I had checked out something that I hadn't, yet.

As human beings, we're taught to believe that we're so small and insignificant that what we think, act, and do doesn't matter in the big scope of things.
