Middle Wife :))
The 'Middle Wife' by an Anonymous 2nd grade teacher
I've been teaching now for about fifteen years. I have two kids myself, but the best birth story I know is the one I saw in my own second grade classroom a few years back.
When I was a kid, I loved show-and-tell. So I always have a few sessions with my students. It helps them get over shyness and usually, show-and-tell is pretty tame. Kids bring in pet turtles, model airplanes, pictures of fish they catch, stuff like that. And I never, ever place any boundaries or limitations on them. If they want to lug it in to school and talk about it, they're welcome.
Well, one day this little girl, Erica, a very bright, very outgoing kid, takes her turn and waddles up to the front of the class with a pillow stuffed under her sweater. She holds up a snapshot of an infant. 'This is Luke, my baby brother, and I'm going to tell you about his birthday.'
‘First, Mom and Dad made him as a symbol of their love, and then Dad put a seed in my Mom's stomach, and Luke grew in there. He ate for nine months through an umbrella cord.'
She's standing there with her hands on the pillow, and I'm trying not to laugh and wishing I had my camcorder with me. The kids are watching her in amazement.
'Then, about two Saturdays ago, my Mom starts saying and going, 'Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh!' Erica puts a hand behind her back and groans. 'She walked around the house for, like an hour, 'Oh, oh, oh!' (Now this kid is doing a hysterical duck walk and groaning.)
' My Dad called the middle wife. She delivers babies, but she doesn't have a sign on the car like the Domino's man. They got my Mom to lie down in bed like this.' (Then Erica lies down with her back against the wall.)
'And then, pop! My Mom had this bag of water she kept in there in case he got thirsty, and it just blew up and spilled all over the bed, like psshhheew!' (This kid has her legs spread with her little hands mimicking water flowing away. It was too much!)
'Then the middle wife starts saying 'push, push,' and 'breathe, breathe.
They started counting, but never even got past ten. Then, all of a sudden, out comes my brother. He was covered in yucky stuff that they all said it was from Mom's play-center, (placenta) so there must be a lot of toys inside there. When he got out, the middle wife spanked him for crawling up in there..'
Then Erica stood up, took a big theatrical bow and returned to her seat.
I'm sure I applauded the loudest. Ever since then, when it's show-and-tell day, I bring my camcorder, just in case another ' Middle Wife' comes along.

Experience counts ;)
" When a lady asks to choose between two things, the correct answer is the one that she has pre-decided "
Motivation
"
Life is like playing CHESS with GOD..
After your every move he makes the next move..
your moves are called CHOICES and his moves are called CHALLENGES...
But one good thing about this game is that even if you are mated,
he allows you to start a fresh game,
and with every new game, you better yourself making yourself an expert in the game
and when you actually win a challenge with him,
he induces enough pride in you and you get more confident..."

Self-Consicousness!!
The One Real Key to Your Success
Written by Mike Brooks
Every so often I feel it’s my responsibility to remind you about the single most important determinate of success, happiness and well being. Like gravity itself, this law of being is constant; it is unchanging and completely dependable. Every person relies on and uses this principle, consciously or unconsciously, and it never fails to deliver the exact results according to your understanding of it. The rich, the poor, the successful, the struggling – all manner of men and women the planet over are using this law or principle of being, and it has been this way since the beginning of time. Right now, right here as you are reading this, you are using it, too.
The exciting thing about this principle is that as soon as you truly understand and begin using it constructively with belief and expectation, you can turn your life, circumstance, your income, health, or anything else completely around. This law can be summed up very simply:
“Everything in your life is an exact duplication of your consciousness.”
In other words, whatever images you hold in your mind, in your consciousness, will always be manifested outward as your experience. It is the simplest of truths that you cannot hold one belief and image in your mind and manifest another.
That’s why some sales reps (the top 20%) are, and always will be, more successful than others. That is how they believe themselves to be; it is how they see themselves, and they will always produce the exact results according to their belief. There’s a very easy way to prove that this is so. Ask yourself, “Isn’t it true that the results in your life, in every area, down to every detail, are an exact mirror of what you think about it all day long?”
If you’re honest, your answer is yes. Now the question may come into your mind, “Yeah, but the reason I’m thinking about it all day long is because that’s how it is for me. The circumstances are there (I’m not making enough money; don’t have the house/car/relationship I want, etc.) so of course that’s what I think about all the time.”
Let me ask you: “What if it was EXACTLY the other way around?” What if your thoughts actually caused you to take repetitive actions that actually CAUSED the unwanted situations in your life to recur?
If you’re willing to consider that your thinking and beliefs might actually be the cause – rather than the results – in your life, then you are ready to finally claim the spiritual power that is the one truth that rules all of existence – that everything in your life is an exact duplication of your current consciousness.
There are books written about this power of manifestation (some call it the Law of Attraction), and it is and always will be true. I think Dr. Robert Anthony said it best in his book, “Advanced Formula for Total Success”:
“Take all the money away from a person who is a millionaire – one who has the consciousness of a millionaire today – and within a short time he or she will be a millionaire again. Riches start from the mind, not your pocketbook, bank account or investment. The pocketbook, bank account and investments are the effects, not the cause. The cause is always an idea or belief. A person is not rich because they have money. They have money because they are rich in consciousness. They believe that they are rich.
Again, this is the reason that the rich will always get richer and the poor will always stay poor until they change their consciousness.”
This is why an astounding 90% of all lottery winners or people who inherit or win large sums of money end up broke and in debt – in other words, back to their original level of consciousness – in 3 years or less. This is a concrete and measurable example of this law in action.
So, what can do you do about it?
First, stop blaming other people, companies, competition or the economy for your current circumstances. They are not the cause; your current beliefs and repetitive thinking are and always will be the cause.
Second, make a commitment to begin treating the source – your consciousness. You can do this by picking up and reading daily, any of the books you currently own on the power of belief,law of attraction, consciousness conditioning, and begin reminding yourself of the truth, daily.
Third, begin changing these believes and your consciousness with whatever techniques you find work for you. There are many different ones to chose from: You can use affirmations, meditations, becoming aware of and changing your self-talk, hypnosis sessions, prayer, practicing gratitude, or any other practice that will develop and change your consciousness.
I hope some of what you’ve read here today resonates with the truth inside of you. If you have used your power before, then you know what I’m talking about. Make a decision that today is the day you begin believing in and creating the life you know is possible for you. Just remember: “If someone else can have the things in life that you want, then YOU can have it, too.”
And you will, as soon as you change in the images in your consciousness!!
