The Key Point

In an email regarding GPF 2007 Philippines1, M. Trombin said:

"... the key point is the same. If we, together with our partners, do not work practically and invest in changing the life and conscience of the people for the better, we will never achieve the goals proposed by Hyun Jin Nim2 via the GPF. For that we need to act on short and long terms projects and becoming a real movement for change."

Giving hope

Wonder when the concept of borrowing and lending started. People have been helping relatives and friends naturally all along. "Help" might be either 100%, i.e. w/o expectation of returning, or 0%, i.e. the concept of lending with expectation of exact returns, or still 0%, although it seems like <0%, i.e. lending with interests.

Nevertheless, I feel that when someone is willing to lend, he is willing to give you your hopes. However, one needs to establish necessary credibility to be given hopes.

Usually, the lenders are clear of their risks and are professionals. Rarely this is the case for consumer borrowers, while businessmen are clear of their profits when borrowing. In this modern age, it is wise to learn more about loans, the different types such as Unsecured Personal Loans, Payday Loans and many others you can find in these links. They also have some general articles.

The rights to choose

Personally, I am not familiar with the concept of holiday season. Still, for many people, the headaches that come with the coming holiday season is near. I didn't have much experiences in the joy of receiving gifts, less that of giving gifts. However, that little experiences is enough to know the trouble of choosing the right gift. On one hand, the most convenient way is just to send cash, but this is very lacking of sincerity. On the other hand, to buy the actual gift itself include the risk that your selection does not match the preference of the receiver.

Thus, I think vouchers and coupons provide the conveniency, but still allow the giver to show the efforts of selecting the appropriate type/brand/range of gifts for the receiver. At the same time, the receiver has the rights to choose the design/specifications that is preferred.

With online stores, it is more convenient and environmental friendly to give vouchers and coupons. E.g. getting Overstock.com coupons may suggest some kind of efforts to help in the lessening the problem of throwing away good and new products. Instead of sticking to a certain brand, you can also give a coupons of certain type of product, e.g. choose from many wireless products by getting net10wireless coupons.

So, its about time to choose your own promo codes!
