No matter how nice we try to put things, there is no denying that life is a battle. Everyday is a struggle.
However, with every struggle is a blessing. We are blessed to be alive and given the chance to make changes everyday.
People say, “live your life to the fullest”; I am here to do just that.
Hi, My name is Nadrah and this is my story.
I'm a daughter, a sister, a granddaughter, a cousin, a friend, a wife and a mother but most of all, I will always be a little girl at heart.
This blog is about my life and how I try to live it to the fullest while keeping it well balanced.

Always Paraphrase to Verify



Nowadays, people love to name things after something that is totally different.

For example, a child was named after a fruit. Does Apple ring a bell?

When you say penguin, Person A can think "Animal" whilst Person B can think of "Linux".

In order to practice effective listening, it is always important to paraphrase.

Exhibit A, 2 broke friends...

Friend A: B, tomorrow is your birthday.. What would you like?

Friend B: Ice Cream Sandwich

Friend A: Ice Cream Sandwich?

Friend B: Yes!

Friend A: Are you referring to the Food
                  or my FOOT?!!!! (The android)

Friend B: LOL! Just trying my luck!

Ok, excuse my lameness... Just need to take a break from the agendas to attend...
