A young Cow herd who lived alone, met Weaver Girl and fell in love with her, which is also the Goddess's seventh daughter, who had just escaped from boring heaven to look for fun. Soon, they got married without the knowledge of the Goddess. They lived happily and had two children. But the Goddess  found out that Weaver Girl, a fairy girl, had married a mere mortal. The Goddess was furious and ordered Weaver Girl to return to heaven. (Alternatively, the Goddess forced the fairy back to her former duty of weaving colorful clouds, a task she neglected while living on earth with a mortal.) On Earth, Cowherd was very upset that his wife had disappeared. Suddenly, his ox began to talk, telling him that if he killed it and put on its hide, he would be able to go up to Heaven to find his wife. Crying bitterly, he killed the ox, put on the skin, and carried his two beloved children off to Heaven to find Weaver Girl. The Goddess discovered this and was very angry. Taking out her hairpin, the Goddess scratched a wide river in the sky to separate the two lovers forever, thus forming the Milky Way between Altair and Vega. Weaver Girl must sit forever on one side of the river, sadly weaving on her loom, while Cowherd watches her from afar while taking care of their two children (his flanking stars β and γ Aquilae). But once a year all the magpies in the world would take pity on them and fly up into heaven to form a bridge (the bridge of magpies) over the star Denebin the Cygnus constellation so the lovers may be together for a single night, which is the seventh night of the seventh moon. However, sometimes in the year, there are no stars regarding to the mythology appearing in the sky.

Nowadays, girls take part in worshiping the celestials during rituals. They will go to the local temple to pray to Weaver Girl for wisdom. Paper items are usually burned as offerings. Girls may recite traditional prayers for dexterity in needlework, which symbolize the traditional talents of a good spouse. Divination could take place to determine possible dexterity in needlework. They make wishes for marrying someone who would be a good and loving husband. During the festival, girls make a display of their domestic skills. Traditionally, there would be contests amongst those who attempted to be the best in threading needles under low-light conditions like the glow of an ember or a half moon. Some girls also gather toiletries in honor of the seven maidens.

The festival also held an importance for newlywed couples. Traditionally, they would worship the celestial couple for the last time and bid farewell to them. The celebration stood symbol for a happy marriage and showed that the married woman was treasured by her new family.

During this festival, a festoon is placed in the yard. Single and newlywed women make offerings to Cowherd and Weaver Girl, which may include fruit, flowers, tea, and face powder. After finishing the offerings, half of the face powder is thrown on the roof and the other half divided among the young women. It is believed that, by doing this, the women are bound in beauty with Weaver Girl. Tales say that it will rain on this fateful day if there's crying in heaven. Other tales say that you can hear the lovers talking if you stand under grapevines on this night.

On this day, the Chinese gaze to the sky to look for Vega and Altair shining in the Milky Way, while a third star forms a symbolic bridge between the two stars. It was said that if it rains on this day that it was caused by a river sweeping away the magpie bridge or that the rain is the tears of the separated couple. Based on the legend of a flock of magpies forming a bridge to reunite the couple, a pair of magpies came to symbolize conjugal happiness and faithfulness.

On this day too, it is known as Chinese Valentine Day! Have you prepared gift for your love one?

I just recently finished the doctors 2016 starred by Park Shin Hye and Kim Rae Won, I knew I’m too late for this but this drama really showed me a different side of surgeon unlike the doctor stranger. I am right now so admire of surgeons. Through this drama I learnt quite a lot about neurosurgeon and neurology.

It really surprised me when I see them handling emergency patients, where they actually can conclude the condition of the patient within minutes, even about pupil dilated details.

One of the patients that I hold deep impression is a kid around 8 to 9 years old. He always smile no matter what happened, his brother fell, he laughed. Isn’t it weird? Yes, it is.

It is a PBA or which they called Pseudobulbar Affect. I had done research this because I was so curious of it. This PBA usually occurs in neurological conditions of injured such as;

1. Stroke


2. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)


3. Multiple sclerosis (MS)


4. Traumatic brain injury


5. Alzheimer's disease


6. Parkinson's disease

It is also believed that it is the result from damage to the prefrontal cortex which is brain area that controls emotion. You may take a look around you for these PBA symptoms;

1. Sudden, extra intense fits of crying or laughter that you can't control


2. Crying or laughter that doesn't seem right for the situation


3. Episodes that last longer than you expect


4. Outbursts of frustration and anger


5. Facial expressions that don't match emotions

If there are some people around you had one of these symptoms, you may try to consult to doctor to prevent it getting worse.

Kindly share this, let everyone aware of this.

Hi guys! Another short fact about health that I would like to share! Do you guys know that our bodies are weak around 03.00 AM till 04.00 AM?

When it’s around 03.00 AM, asthma attacks are 300 times more likely to happen due to the airways narrowing as adrenaline and anti-inflammatory hormones are at their lowest.

While around 04.00 AM, hospitals tends to receive more patients, because in this time, it is more likely to die the highest possibility is because your blood pressure is at its lowest.

How body works when you are asleep!



9.00 pm – 11.00 pm: At this time, your body eliminates toxic chemicals from the immune system (lymph nodes).

11.00 pm – 1.00 am: This is the time your liver eliminates poisons and rejuvenates itself. It is best to be sound asleep by 9 pm or 10 pm for your body to properly execute this important function.
12.00 midnight – 4.00 am: this is the time your bone marrow produces blood.
1.00 am – 3.00 am: This is the time your gall bladder eliminates toxins and rejuvenates itself.
3.00 am – 5.00 am: This is the time your lungs eliminate toxins and rejuvenate themselves.
4.00 am – 7.00 am: This is the time your colon eliminates poisons and rejuvenates itself. This is the proper time to empty your bowel.
7.00 am – 9.00 am: This is the time that vitamins, minerals, proteins and nutrients are absorbed in your small intestines. Definitely it is healthy to eat breakfast at this time.



Do you know?

The best time is to go in bed and asleep before 8 pm, good enough before 9pm, latest before 10 pm it is still healthy. Generally in some sense from 8pm till 10pm rest our intelligence, ability to make Balanced and Healthy decisions. From 10pm till 12 mid night rest our mind, ability to think and contemplate. Ability to cope, digest and show in healthy way our emotions. From 12 mid night rest our growth material body.
