How Well do You Know Him? Image result for free clipart images of women 

Sometime women will get in  serious relationships without know much about the men. This can leave a woman at a disadvantage because sometimes the man is either married or he is involved in another relationship.

Before you get too deeply involved with him get to know as much about him as you possibly can. Your life and your future is not something that you should take chances with. Find out where he lives and what kind of person he is in his community, does he have a bad reputation or is he a respectful citizen. When starting a relationship take it, get to know something about him and then decide if this is the person you want to invest your time and energy in.

Remember that all that glitters is not gold and it is better to play it safe rather than end up being sorry and hurt.

What a Woman Wants From Her Man

What a woman often wants most from a relationship is to have a man who loves, respect, and appreciates her. She wants a man who makes her feel special; one who thinks about her feelings and not just his own.

A woman wants a man who will not lie to her or give her a reason to feel jealous. She needs to be able to trust him with her heart. She wants someone who is serious about her and their relationship and is willing to put in as much effort to make it work as she does. She wants a man who will commit to her and  who will be there for her when she needs him.

Be Confident

As a woman you may find that you have to work twice as hard as your male counterpart to get recognition. There will be doubters, those who believe that you will never succeed.Stay confident and feed your mind with positive thought. When others tell you that you can’t know that you can. Here is a friendly reminder from the poet.

It couldn’t be Done by Edgar Albert Guest

Somebody said that it couldn’t be done
      But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
      Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
      On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
      That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you’ll never do that;
      At least no one ever has done it;”
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat
      And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
      Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
      That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
 
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
      There are thousands to prophesy failure,
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
      The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
      Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing
      That “cannot be done,” and you’ll do it

Meditation

The hustle and bustle of daily life can take a toll on us and sometimes it  gets too much. You can improve your life if you slow down and take a quiet moment for meditation and reflection. There are many reasons why meditation is good for you.

Meditation reduces stress, improves concentration, reduces anxiety, increases self-awareness and encourages a healthy lifestyle. It quiets the mind and gives you a sense of peace.

We did not break the glass ceiling, Hillary did not win the presidential election but the fact that she came this far gives us hope as women that nothing is unattainable if we work hard at it. Yes a small fire burns within us and we hold hope in our hearts that a woman can one day become president of this nation.

We know the road will not be easy. We know that we will have to work twice as hard but I believe that one day a woman will create history by becoming the leader of  one of the greatest nation on earth, The United States of America.

Thank you Hillary Clinton for giving women hope and a voice.

2016 Presidential Election

Whatever the outcome of the election we must stand and have faith that we will continue to progress as individuals. We must ensure that love and acceptance prevail and we must never accept any message of hate towards our fellowmen. I hope that everyone will be able to live in love and harmony.

The future right now is uncertain but we must all remain positive and hope for the best. We must pray that the people of the United States of America will be united because a nation divided among itself will fall. I hope for the best for America and I hope you do too.

Stay Positive

No matter how far you seem to be from where you want to be in life, never stop trying and never stop believing that you are going to get there. The seasons are always changing so if you are going through tough times your season of change is coming.  Don’t give way to doubt and think positive thoughts. God will not only fill your cup but He will let it overflow with blessings.

RELATIONSHIPS

One Sign That he may be an Abuser  “ISOLATION”

A majority of women get into relationships having no idea that their intended partners are abusers.  This happens because you cannot tell that a man is an abuser simply by looking at him.  He often appears to be your regular nice guy.  He puts on the charm.  He wines and dine you and make you feel important.  He says the right words that you want to hear.

However charming he may appear at first be careful and take nothing for granted.  Keep your eyes open for any warning signs that he may not be all that he wants you to believe that he is because he could be an abuser.

One of the first signs to watch for is ‘Isolation’.  One of the first things he may try to do is isolate you from your friends and relatives.  If he wants you to cut ties with your friends don’t for one moment believe that he is thinking of your best interest.  If he tries to keep you away from your family or try to make you choose between your family and him be warned; he is up to no good.  He could be setting the stage for abuse!

When he gets you in a position where you are isolated from your family and friends it gives him power over you because when the abuse starts you will find yourself alone with no one to come to your aid and that is exactly what he wants.  Do not ignore that first clue!

Euthanasia

 

Euthanasia may sound like a nice word but it is really nothing more than a method by which thousands of elderly people are made to die each year by relatives who often think they are doing what is best for them.

How does euthanasia work you might ask. It is quite simple acutally and is widely accomodated in hospice care even though the practice is illegal in some states. Death by euthanasia in some cases means that the elderly person is deprived of food and water until his or her body shuts down and they die. Injections and drugs can also be used.

Ehthnasia is like a two edged sword on one hand it can relieve those who are terminally ill and suffering, from their pain and misery, on the other hand it can send those whose family members are tired of caring from them to an early grave. Do you think it justifiable to have an elderly relative who is still capable of eating and drinking and stave them to death. You thoughts are highly appreciated.
