I recently visted one of the most amazing places in the world! The Country was Costa Rica and the town was Dominical! Dominical is a small, I mean really small, town in the south western part of Costa Rica. Up until recently very few people had ever heard of Dominical. It's a place were your more likely to find a surf shop then a convenience store. A group of hippies back in the 60's and early 70's were the first Americans to really ever visit there and many of them still live there! Who wouldn't want to though. It's paradise, actually its even better than paradise because the surfing is next to none.

Unfortunately I didn't go to Dominical on vacation, I went there to serve my father! Even though Dominical is a gorgeous area, its infested with poverty. The natives that have been living there for centuries haven't been blessed like most of us living in the states, so hunger and homelessness are common. Our mission was to go down to Dominical and brighten up a group of children at a local school. To be honest I was a little nervous before going. I mean I didn't exactly know what to expect. What I found though was more amazing then I ever imagined. We were welcomed with open arms, maybe thats because we came bearing gifts, but its probably because we brought a sign of hope.

This trip was the most amazing experience of my life! It opened my mind up to the true definition of love and it taught me that the most important thing we have in ours lives are our relationships with those we are surrounded by. Relationships are the key to success and can bring happiness in any time of darkness.

Now's the time for first time home buyers to get on the ball and purchase their first home! For 20 or so more days a first time home buyer can take advantage of down payment assistance and the 10% or $7,500 tax credit. As of October 1, 2008 down payment assistance on FHA loans will be no more. Add to that the fact that minimum down payment will increase from 3% to 3.5%, and your headline has crossed the wire.

For the first time home buyer the next few days will represent the best time to move into home ownership. Make your best offer and close the deal while sellers are still biting their nails that this market could go lower. Move now and you will be the intelligent buyer people will be talking about in the spring of '09. Buyers need to realize this oppurtunity and act fast.
