Could constant inhalation of environmental toxins be linked to Congenital Heart Disease in Children?

Congenital heart diseases develop when the heart or blood vessels close to the heart do not develop normally during birth. Presently there are ongoing researches which seeks to ascertain if these toxic discharged into the air could affect the foetus of a pregnant woman at close proximity.... Personally I would think positive of this theory been brought forward as the high levels of carbon monoxide and industrial emissions in the atmosphere is alarming.  In my opinion virtually all commercial vehicles in  Lagos state should be banned from using our roads. The heavy duty  trucks are not left out of this.

No matter the age or occupation, everyone could use a little fresh air from time to time. Taking a road trip with friends and colleagues could prove an ideal way to de-stress, shed off some old skin, forget your troubles for a while and make some fond memories along the way.  So excited about this journey I am about to embark on..... But there's this vague feeling I can not describe. What to expect? How to dress? ....Need i inform you that I had to tell the dressmaker to make my dress modest and simple.  If I hadn't done this what could be my fate? I fear the possibility of getting embarrassed or even denied entry into choice places.  The chills i feel at memories of recent happenings that have been making the headlines lately make me want to stay off the trip...on a second thought I just can't.  It's my dear friend's big day and I would love to share the day with him. I hope to get back happy, having made new friends and had a feel of their hospitality.

Purity of Intentions!!!..... What does this mean? Cast your mind back to the times you've intended doing something beneficial for someone and you got hit back for those same reasons. We hear stories of people been robbed while trying to help pregnant ladies on the high-ways, People rendering help to friends and even strangers and getting ill-luck afterwards and so on and so forth. Life could be so unfair! The questions is ...'Do we stop been the persons we are just because someone wouldn't appreciate it? At the cenacle yesterday, members shared their opinions on this topic and we all came to this conclusion. Do all things with the purest of intentions! Whenever you are uncertain about a particular decision to take, Take time to think before you act, Meditate on
