War and Irony

I feel the irony of life's nurturing molestation with painfully sweet romantic rejection
The Weapon driven home comfortably
In the womb of a moment's passing silence under big, green umbrellas
Outside a little cafe as the rain softly patterns
On the shiny brand new tanks and thousands of armor-piercing rounds, stacked high,
Right next door to dollies with blonde hair and blue eyes
While puppies yelp and wag their tails, nostrils flaring, 
At the smell of the sulfur and tears mixing with soot from the smoke stacks
As our children pray for the bombs to cease their taunting cackle
So they might curl beneath their blankets hoping perhaps this year
They saw on television right after the anti-violence commercial

Keep The Children Healthy during Ramadan

Shaum/Sawm is one of The Five Pillars of Islam. Ramadan (a complete fasting), we do the fast for about 29 or 30 days in a row. It is the Holy Month for Muslims. Those twelve years old and above must complete their fast from dawn to sunset.  I've started to teach my child to fast from the last two years when he was 6 years old, even he's just done his first fast for only a couple hours, at least he tried. There are many even as young as four or five are encouraged to fast for a few hours a day during Ramadan by their parents. It's to begin appreciating the significance of the Holy month of Ramadan. Alhamdulillah , I'm very grateful, this Ramadan my son now is 8 years old and so excited about following Ramadan completely.

Conducting A SWOT Analysis for Business

I’ve been dealing with business for more than 3 years. Conducting a SWOT analysis for my business after years of operation is a great practice. It allows me to consider my business position, identify areas of improvement, and capitalize on opportunities for further growth.  SWOT analysis holds significance for several reasons in business. It’s a strategic planning tool used to evaluate a business venture, project, or in this case, any situation that requires strategic assessment.
