Healing Burn
I did a little research on the "net" and found lots of verification to this
story. First cool the area with water, then apply egg white. As it starts
to dry, rinse off with cool water and reapply egg white.

THINK & GROW RICH - Persistence
I thought about you when I read this book last night right before I go to sleep.
You probably already know this book by reading my title.... at least I hope so.
Here you go what Napoleon Hill wrote in his book....
THE LAST GREAT PROPHET - Reviewed by Thomas Sugrue
Mohammed ( Nabi Mohammad ) was a prophet, but he never performed a miracle. He was not a mystic; he had no formal schooling; he did not begin his mission until he was forty. When he announced that he was the Messenger of God (Allah), bringing word of the true religion, he was ridiculed and labeled a lunatic. Children tripped him and women threw filth upon him. He was banished from his native city, Mecca, and his followers were stripped of their worldly goods and sent into the desert after him. When he had been preaching then years he had nothing to show for it but banishment, poverty and ridicule. Yet before another ten years had passed, he was dictator of all Arabia, ruler of Mecca, sweep to the Danube and the Pyrenees before exhausting the impetus he gave it. That impetus was three fold; the power of words, the efficacy of prayer and man's kinship with God.
His career never made sense. Mohammed was born to impoverished members of a leading family of Mecca. Because Mecca, the crossroads of the world, home of the magic stone called the Caaba, (kaabah), great city of trade and the center of trade routes, was unsanitary, its children were sent to be raised in the desert by Bedouins. Mohammed was thus nurtured, drawing strength and health form the milk of nomad,vicarious mothers. he tended sheep and soon hired out to a rich widow as leader of her caravans. He traveled to all parts of the Eastern World, talked with many men of diverse beliefs and observed the decline of Christianity into warring sects.
When he was a twenty-eight, Khadija, the widow, looked upon him with favor, and married him. Her father wold have objected to sch a marriage, so she got him drunk and held him up while he gave the paternal blessing. For the next twelve years Mohammed lived as a rich and respected and very shrewd trader. Then he took to wandering in the desert, and one day he returned with the first verse of the Koran (Quran) and told Khadija that the archangel Gabriel had appeared to him and said that he was to be the Messenger of God.
The Koran, the revealed word of God, was the closest thing to a miracle in Mohammed's life. He had not been a poet; he had no gift of words. Yet the verses of the Koran, as he received them and recited them to the faithful, were better than any verses which the professional poets of the tribes could produce. This, to the Arabs, was a miracle. To them the gift of words was the greatest gift, the poet was all-powerful. In addition the Koran said that the world should be a democratic state -Islam. It was this political hersey, plus Mohammed's desire to destroy all the 360 idols in the courtyard of the Caaba, which brought about his banishment. The idols brought the desert tribes to Mecca, and that meant trade. So the businessmen of Mecca, the capitalists, of which he had been one, set and demanded sovereignty over the world.
The rise of Islam began. Out of the desert came a flame which would not be extinguished-a democratic army fighting as a unit and prepared to die without wincing. Mohammed had invited the Jews and Christians to join him; for he was not building a new religion. He was calling all who believed in one God to join in a single faith. If the Jews and Christians had accepted his invitation Islam would have conquered the world. They didn't. They would not even accept Mohammed's innovation of humane warfare.When the armies of the prophet entered Jerusalem not a single person was killed because of his faith. When the crusaders entered the city, centuries later, not a Moslem (orang Islam) man, women, or child was spared. But the Christians did accept one Moslem idea-the place of learning, the university.
What a great Leader he was Nabi Mohammad. I wonder why Moslem now unable to be at peace. why we must use Allah name to kill others....??????
