Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Tips To Manage Your Own Pleasure In Life

By Jean Tumbler


You control your own happiness. While ridding yourself of all the negativity around may not be easy, especially if you are going through a rough time, it is important to understand that you are the only person that can directly control whether you are happy or sad. Understanding this is the first step to attaining true happiness.

Smiling is good for you. Not only does it make you look friendlier, it reduces stress and improves your immune system. Smiling just might save your life someday.

Some people become sedentary and don't move around that much. This is a very bad way to be; it's not healthy and it's very boring. Get up and take a walk around your neighborhood. This energizes you, switches your day up a little bit, and helps you get in shape. Don't spend so much time on the couch.

Remember when your mother forced to eat your vegetables? She was on the right track. Fruits and veggies keep you healthy and reduce the risk of contracting many bad diseases. As the old saying goes, an apple a day keeps the doctor away. And lowers your health care costs.

Many of us become preoccupied watching TV. Reading books has been known to make us better readers and make us smarter people. It helps you focus, gives you knowledge, and makes your memory better. Try putting down the remote and picking up a book.

Be careful not to neglect your friends. No human being is an island; we all need people to be around and make us feel good. You may feel you're living a good existence acting like a hermit, but human beings are social creatures. Establish good friendships and maintain them. You don't have to spend hours on the phone, but call a friend every now and again and have a good conversation. It does wonders for you.

Volunteer at an old folks' home or a day care. You can gain incredible insight from a conversation with an older person, and children always have a rejuvenating quality about them that does you good.

It's not hard to be happy. Make the most of what you have, treat people how you want to be treated, and try to enjoy yourself as much as you possibly can. Follow those tips, and you should see a definite improvement in the quality of your life.

How To Move Ahead After A Split Up

By Ashley Spears


Sometimes, we get to see our relationship turn for the worse. One moment we are living the moment and the next, we take a sharp turn and we end up losing someone we really love. Breakups are very emotional. They put you in a downward spiral if you are left to fend for yourself. Here are some of the things you can do to keep yourself together after a breakup.

For couples who have been staying together under one roof, it is much better that you go away from that place. Go far away as much as possible so that you can have the time and space to be yourself. And lessen the chances that you might run into each other.

Make a list of the good things that have happened inside your relationship with your former partner and the bad things that have happened. If the good ones outweigh the bad ones then you should think thoroughly what just happened but if the bad tips the scale then you made a good choice.

Never go a day without treating yourself a bag of chips or a back massage. The main purpose behind this is to make you feel good about yourself after being emotionally bruised from your previous relationship.

Break the routine. Couples usually have their own little routine and when the relationship ends, you have adapted to that routine which ultimately keeps you from moving on. By breaking that routine, you are also breaking free from that inside turmoil.

Have someone to talk to. Talking and crying can help relieve you of the pain that you have been keeping for days. The more you talk to people that you trust the more you will realize that life has a lot of other things to offer.

Delete everything from pictures to that old stuff toy your partner has given to you. If you want to forget about him then throw away those things. It will only open up wounds of the past detouring your way to moving on.

Have a deadline to yourself. Put a date on the day that you will see yourself getting over your partner. With this, you actually have something to look forward to everyday and will help you remind that you need to move on from that life.
