ANCIENT CHINESE BELIEF: When a child is born invisible red threads extend from the child's spirit and connect to all the significant people who will be part of the child's life. As the child grows, the threads shorten, drawing closer those people who are destined to be together.

Surgery Update

Today we finally got confirmation that Johanna's next surgery will be July 22. We will be traveling to my parents house in LA where the other kids will stay while we are in the hospital with Johanna. This will work out nicely because the kids and I can stay at my parents for as long as Johanna needs and Chuck can get back home to work. We will head home when Johanna is up to traveling. Ashley our oldest has graciously offered to stay at our house while we are gone to take care of our animals. It will be fun for her as she did most of her growing up here and will get to spend time with old friends. Please keep Johanna in your prayers! It is heartbreaking to see her go through these surgeries. In my opinion she is at the worst age to have them done. She is old enough to be aware of what is happening, but not old enough to really understand why this must be done. I just have to keep reminding myself that Gods timing is perfect and she is in His hands.

The Best Things in Life are Free***People say that nothing in life is free. Well that may have been the case for the old school internet marketers, but the age of information has changed the way people look at things like this beyond belief. http://www.ourtips.info/postlaunchprofits.phpPeople go to the internet, with the intention of making money and that is their only intention. This may have been okay when the Internet was in its infancy, but now the internet has matured and the fossils have been left behind. By the fossils, I mean the people that just want to sell, sell, sell. They dont want to help you make money, they just want to take it.One of, and if not the most important things to do today, is to help people and give them as much information as possible. Thats right, give them the information. That means for free! Once you have done this, they will be willing and wanting to give you their money, because they know that you are the real deal and know what you are doing is in their best interests.I cannot emphasize strongly enough, the fact that you should give away free information, that contains great content, before you try and start to make money. If you go on the internet and just try to sell an information product (or anything for that matter), then you are going to be very disappointed in the results. Establishing yourself in any business is the key to success, so make sure you can create quality free products and help people.If you give away good advice and the know how of a good business, then people will want to learn more and they will come back to you, because you have already told them what they need to know and have build up a friendly relationship with them.If someone just has to pay for advice from you, then you are not going to be noticed as much as if you give away that piece of advice or knowledge. Then they will look at your stuff with more than a glancing interest even though you are not giving away everything. This means that you can follow up that advice, which they will want to pay you for.There is no such thing as a free lunch, but with dedication and help (that can be free), anyone can make a successful business on the internet, so the importance of the freebie is undoubtedly more important than the initial sale, especially if you build a list on the back end.http://www.ourtips.info/postlaunchprofits.phpThe best things in life are free andPost Launch Profits Secrets is one of them.http://www.ourtips.info/postlaunchprofits.php
