My Visit To Andrea Jurgens In Heaven

 Andrea Jurgens  (last name pronounce as Yo-Gins) was a German singer ,who died in 2017 from a stroke.

 I always wanted to meet her. When I was  younger and looking at the night sky, I  had  always believed that ,when a person dies ,that person becomes a shiny star in the heavens.

 If so ,then Andrea Jurgens must be there somewhere;  I thought to myself, maybe I can pray to God, to see if  I can go visit her in heaven, just for one time.

At night praying beside my bed, I have had asked God if I may visit Andrea Jurgens in heaven ?, and went to bed, after  few minutes I  had felt a breeze, the next thing I knew, I was whisked off ,to a new land. Was I  in  heaven? It must have been  heaven, because I  had always wanted to give Andrea a yellow rose, that has had suddenly appeared out of no where.

Lo and behold, there standing in front of me was Andrea Jurgens, wearing black clothing and two necklaces, one of them was a cross, the other a  giant five point star, which I assume was made out of pure silver. I  gave  Andrea the yellow rose, she in return gave me the necklace with the giant silver five-pointed star and place it around my neck.

Suddenly Andrea had told me "You can say it, Stanley, I know your thoughts and I  also know your feelings,.......  you can say that you love me.....don't be afraid to say you love me, I will not be offended or be scared off or run away from you.. ",and that is what I  exactly what I did;  Crying , and almost down on my knees, my hand over my heart about to break down, I told Andrea in a choked voice and with many tears in my eyes  , that I love her. .  At that moment, I had felt another breeze, and found myself suddenly back in my own bed.

Did I actually had visited heaven or was it a dream? If it was a dream, then how do I explain, the silver five-point necklace star I had found that I was wearing around my neck? 

Maybe I already had such necklace, or someone probably lost it, and I found it. I got up from my bed and placed the necklace on top of my dresser drawers, and was going to put a lost and found ad in the newspaper the next day, then headed back to bed.

Soon as I had hit the mattress:  I saw a golden glow aura surrounding the necklace , it flew up by itself , in mid-air,  flew towards me and it was draped around my neck. 

Then suddenly I have heard Andrea's sweet angelic voice: "Stanley, keep the necklace, I gave it to you and thank you for your love, and remember..... 

There are millions of stars,..

 There are millions of rainbows,...

  And there are millions of fishes in the sea". (end)

Figuring Percentages In Your Head

 Okay, can you figure the answer to this equation in your head? What is 16% of 50?, see if you can figure it out in your head, I'll wait, pretend that Jeopardy music is playing :)

Remember the percent sign ("%") is a constant meaning it has a value, and the value of the percent sign alone with no numbers in front has the value of 1/100. So instead of writing the equation 16% of 50, we can write the formula this way 16 x (1/100) x 50 notice, it makes no difference if we multiply it forward ,or backwards, or start with any number ,and then multiplying the other two,it will always come out with the same answer (so long there is no other math functions  getting in our way). So the equation can be written another way, since it makes no difference  in which order we multiply them.

                             What is 16 % of 50 ? can be re- written it in our heads in a different way, by moving the percent sign, assigning the percent sign to the 50 rather than the 16:  

50 % of 16 which of course gives us the answer of 8; Yes, 16% of 50 equals eight ,and so  does 50% of 16 equals 8.

Okay, here is another one what is 40% of 30 ?  This is really simple, forget the zeroes and simply multiply ( 4 x 3) giving us the answer of 12. Yes, like before 40% of 30 equals 12, so does 30% of 40 equals 12. When a equation says "of" it means to multiply

Here is another one: What is 20% of 120 ? Again we forget  about the zeroes and simply multiply ( 2 x 12) giving us the answer of 24.As long both the percentage and the number are ending in zeroes, we are good.

So if one sees a dress that had an original price of $150 and  they have a 20% sell, you know that  you will be saving $30. 

By the way the symbol "/" means divided by, so what is 1 divided by 2 ? The answer of course is 1/2. If you have one apple and want to divide it with a friend you will give her/him one-half of it. (end)
