☆ What this holiday of sacrifice teaches us about mindfulness
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-16 | by ( Monica Haider | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +8 min

The three-day holiday of Eid-al-Adha commemorates the story in the Quran of God appearing to Ibrahim, or Abraham, in a dream and commanding him to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience. Muslims believe that as Abraham was about to sacrifice his son, an angel of God stopped him and gave him a ram to sacrifice in place of his son. Many people kick off the holiday by calling and texting Muslims they know throughout the world with “Eid Mubarak,” which means blessed feast or festival. Here are some mindful takeaways from the Eid holiday that you can include in your routine – no matter what you believe in. It sounds like a miraculous happening, but when applied to daily life, one can view it as doing one’s work and trusting that things fall into place.

Payden's assets have grown with the firm: As majority owner, she boasts an estimated net worth of roughly $700 million and is a "newcomer" on Forbes' recently published 2024 list of America's Richest Self-Made Women. "I was hired at a 25% discount because I didn't know the difference between a bond and stock," Payden told the Los Angeles Times in 1999. Within a couple years, she moved to Los Angeles to join Scudder, Stevens & Clark, a prestigious money management firm. She failed at least one of those attempts because she "didn't play golf" at an annual meeting on a men-only course, Payden told students at Notre Dame in 2011. Since then, she's built her firm into one of the largest private money management firms in the U.S.

The immediate takeaway from the landmark $2.8 billion settlement that the N.C.A.A. and the major athletic conferences accepted on Thursday was that it cut straight at the heart of the organization’s cherished model of amateurism: Schools can now pay their athletes directly. But another bedrock principle remains intact, and maintaining it is likely to be a priority for the N.C.A.A. : that players who are paid by the universities are not employed by them, and therefore do not have the right to collectively bargain. That stance came under greater legal and political scrutiny in recent years, leading to the settlement, which still requires approval by a judge.

AdvertisementThere's room for debate over what exactly counts as a tourist trap — can the historic and gorgeous Venice canals really be considered a tourist trap, even with the souvenir vendors and flocks of selfie-taking visitors? Although nearly all respondents acknowledged recently visiting a tourist trap, almost 70% said their visit to a tourist trap diminished their overall enjoyment of their trip. Avoiding so-called tourist traps, or at least spending less time at them, could also help curb the impacts of overtourism.

CNN —Police launched an investigation Wednesday into the fire that tore through Copenhagen’s famous stock exchange building, causing the collapse of its spire and damaging centuries-old artwork and architecture. “It gives me hope because we have decided to rebuild the stock exchange because it’s part of European history as a trading continent,” he said. The old stock exchange – located only a few minutes walk from Christiansborg Palace – dates back to 1625. It was built in the Dutch Renaissance style at the request of King Christian IV and had recently been undergoing renovations with its facade covered in scaffolding and protective coverings. It has been at the heart of Danish business since then; while it no longer houses the Danish stock exchange, it serves as the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce.

As I show in my book, “God’s Ghostwriters: Enslaved Christians and the Marking of the Bible,” ancient dictation was bare bones and idiosyncratic. Someone might respond that while enslaved and formerly enslaved secretaries and copyists were present, they were still not authors.

And it just makes the presidential transition – if Trump wins – more complicated, unpleasant and problematic than it needed to be.”What about other qualifications for candidacy?
