What are you waiting for?
Some knew about the red light on cars,
but not the *112..
It was about 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. Lauren's parents have always told her never to pull over for an unmarked car on the side of the road, but rather to wait until they get to a gas station,
etc.
Lauren had actually listened to her parents advice, and promptly called *112 on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind her. The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was and there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he had back up already on the way.
Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind her. One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car behind. They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man was a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes.
I never knew about the *112 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a woman alone in a car,you should not pull over for an unmarked car. Apparently police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe place.
*Speaking to a service representative at ** Bell ** Mobility confirmed that *112 was a direct link to State trooper info. So, now it's your turn to let your friends know about *112.
You may want to send this to every woman (and man) you know; it may save a life.
This information is enforced in all 50 states.

Spread the Stupidity
Only in America.....do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy
cigarettes at the front.
Only in America......do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries,
and a DIET coke.
Only in America.....do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
Only in America......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Only in America.....do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
Only in America.....do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.
DEPRESSION
It's a word we use casually, lightly ignoring the fact that true depression---whether its cause is biological or brought about by life events---can be utterly devastating.
The depressed person is emotionally paralyzed, cut off from the stream of daily life.
And the condition is self-perpetuating.
Just finding the energy to seek help can seem like an insurmountable task.
So how do people find their way out of the darkness and into the light?
The motivations to seek help and the ways people find to lift themselves out of the pit of depression are as varied as individual personalities.
Waiting for a chill to pass before rising at dawn,
waiting
for the water to boil for tea
waiting
for the mail to come
waiting
for children to barge from the gate through the door
waiting
for their father to return from a journey
waiting
for darkness to force the family inside
waiting
for fire embers to die
waiting
for glances of love to forgive the pettiness of my day
waiting
for sleep to come
PLEASE remind me to wait when my temper flares..
TO wait past hurt or hate for words that heal..
...when I was a child, I needed love most when I deserved it the least.
So what's the point of it all?
Why does CREATOR allow us to suffer pain, illness, loss?
The answers to these questions will probably never be revealed to us in this life. But when we take stock of our experiences, the good and the bad, we find that the dark times have left us with more than just unpleasant memories. Perhaps we have gained new insights into our own personalities, found strengh and depth we never knew we had.
And what do we do with these emotional gains?
We may go on to lead richer, more enlightened lives. We may also seek to comfort those who hurt as we have hurt, thus heeding CREATOR'S call to look after our fellow humans.
Is this perhaps why CREATOR has permitted suffering in our lives?
We can't answer that question. But our lack of sure knowledge should not stop us from trying to act as CREATOR'S tools for good here on earth.
Someone is there, I realized.
Someone is watching life as it unfolds on this great earth.
More, Someone is there who loves me.
It was a startling feeling of wild hope,
a feeling so new and overwhelming that it seemed fully worth risking my life on.
I still struggle and do not expect to find all the answers to the multitude of questions which perplex my soul.
My certainties have been few;
My doubts have been many.
Yet the bedrock assurance which has held my feet from slipping is the confidence that HE loves me and nothing occurs outside of HIS providential control.
CREATOR made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners...
CREATOR left us great clues as to what foods help what part of our body!
CREATOR's Pharmacy!
Amazing!
A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... and YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.
A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.
Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.
A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.
Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.
Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.
Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers.
And how profound is this?
It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).
Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.
Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.
Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries.
Oranges, Grapefruits , and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.
Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic , also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.
A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.
What food might this contain?' the mouse wondered.
He was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap.
Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning : There is a mousetrap in the house!
There is a mousetrap in the house!'
The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, 'Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a grave
concern to you, but it is of no consequence
to me. I cannot be bothered by it.'
The mouse turned to the pig and told him, 'There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!'
The pig sympathized, but said, 'I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers.'
The mouse turned to the cow and said, 'There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!'
The cow said, 'Wow, Mr. Mouse.
I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose.'
So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap . . . alone. That very night a sound was heard
throughout the house -- like the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught.
In the darkness, she did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital, and she returned home with a fever.
Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient.
But his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock.
To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig. The farmer's wife did not get well; she died. So many people came for her funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them.
The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness.
So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think it doesn't concern you, remember
When one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
We are all involved in this journey called life.
We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another.
SEND THIS TO EVERYONE WHO
HAS EVER HELPED YOU OUT
AND LET THEM KNOW HOW
IMPORTANT THEY ARE.
REMEMBER. .. . . . .
EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY; OUR LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHER FOR A REASON.
One of the best things to hold onto in this world is a FRIEND.
