- Listen to your child : Often, your child just needs a chance to feel heard. Whether your child is 6 months or sixteen, they need you to listen to the feelings they are expressing. Once they feel and express their feelings, they’ll let them go and get on with their life. But to feel safe letting those feelings up and out, they need to know you’re fully present and listening. When children are not encouraged to talk about their feelings they suppress these emotions. Over time, these suppressed emotions become tantrums. When we help our children feel safe enough to feel and express their emotions, we help them trust their own emotional process so that they can handle their own emotions as they get older, without tantrums or repression.
- Empathize with your child : Listen to their perspective and empathize with them. You do not have to agree with them but let them know that you understand their point of view. Just being understood helps humans let go of troubling emotions. Having their position heard and acknowledged will help your child let go of negative emotions. Children develop empathy by experiencing it from others.
- Talk to your child : Talk to your child about emotions. For little ones, just knowing there’s a name for their feeling is an early tool in learning to manage the emotions that flood them. Accept your child’s emotions, rather than denying or minimizing them, which gives children the message that some feelings are shameful or unacceptable. We can teach them to identify their emotions whether it is joy or sadness or frustration. Then, we teach them how to deal with their negative emotions in a constructive way. For example, we can teach them that when they feel angry, they should analyse the emotion. Where does it come from? What can they do to change the underlying cause? We teach them to ask for help when they are overwhelmed by an emotion such as stress or frustration. By doing so, we teach them that they are part of a bigger picture, they are not alone. We strengthen their sense of family bonding. We also teach them that they are responsible for their own emotions and that they are in control.
- Keep an eye on any behaviour changes: As a parent, you will always have to keep an eye on their behaviour. Sudden or drastic changes in behaviour are often a result of children being overwhelmed by some emotion. Sometimes they may hide these emotions from you and they may not even realise that they are behaving differently. Make sure you let your child try to handle their emotions on their own at first, to help build a problem solving ability. It is your job as a parent to keep a watch on these changes, allow them a chance to deal with their emotions on their own and if you find they are unable to do so, talk to them and help them.
- Work on their social skills: Encourage your child to interact with other children, other people. Never undermine or ignore their attempts to converse with you. For younger children, teach them how to start a conversation ( a simple “hi” and “bye” will do). Teach them to observe other people conversing, to note their facial expressions. This can help them identify how to show their own emotions and converse more effectively. If your child is shy or under confident in approaching other children or groups and joining in on their conversation, help them build their confidence. Create more opportunities for them to mix up with other children.
1. Self-awareness – Knowing our own emotions.
2. Self-regulation – Being able to regulate and control how we react to our emotions.
3. Internal motivation – Having a sense of what’s important in life.
4. Empathy – Understanding the emotions of others.
5. Social skills – Being able to build social connections.
At Abhinav, we urge parents to take interest in all aspects of their ward’s development. We regularly hold sessions for parents on various topics related to their ward’s overall development. We believe that it is a joint effort of both parents and teachers to ensure a child’s proper upbringing.

Marriage on Roller Skates
Believe it or not, getting married on a pair of roller skates is nothing new and it’s not entirely uncommon.
Saying your ‘I Do’s on roller skates actually dates back to 1912 when a couple in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, became man and wife in the first recorded ceremony to take place on roller skates.
In 1939, the marriage between the captain of the boys and girls European Roller Skating Team were wed and it made the newsreels quite possibly being one of the first wedding videos to be taking.
From first dances as husband and wife to roller skaters around the world, here are some of the highlights of marriage on roller skates through the years.

Look at me like you love me
29 April 2022 - 22 May 2022
Prahran Square (outdoor) [i]
Cato St, Prahran
In Look at me like you love me, Jess T.Dugan reflects on desire, intimacy, companionship, and the ways our identities are shaped by these experiences. In this highly personal collection of work, Dugan brings together self-portraits, portraits of individuals and couples, and still lifes, interwoven with diaristic writings reflecting on relationships, solitude, family, loss, healing, and the transformations that define a life.
Dugan has long used photography to understand their own identity and to connect with others on a deeper level. Their process of working slowly and collaboratively discloses moments of heightened psychological intensity in images that transcend the specifics of a particular person or place, engaging with what it means to know oneself alongside and through others.
Look at me like you love me transforms Prahran Square into a public moment of connection, sharing intimacy and love on a community scale.

Parents would not want communication with their child to break down. No child enjoys a rift from Mom or Dad. Yet it happens.
“My parents turned off the Wi-Fi while I am watching a YouTube video! I don’t like them!”
“My father always jumps to his own conclusion about me! So unfair!”
“To Mom, a girl should be slim and gentle. But I can still be feminine if big sized and straightforward. She scolds me for eating too much rice. I feel very hurt and tend to defy her!”
What can parents do when they hit a disconnect with their children? Two fathers share what they and their wives did.
Christopher Tan, 62, recalls this part of his parenting journey …
“I was fetching my second son from school, after he attended a motivational session in school. When I quizzed him about it, he became unusually quiet and looked distress. Suddenly, he burst out crying and asked why he was less loved than his other brothers. I was stumped! I was troubled by his sudden burst of emotional outrage.
My wife, Rebecca and I were always thankful for him. The middle child of three sons, he brought us joy. He was such a good boy that we did not feel the need to spend as much time with him as we did with his older brother. I realized he had wrongly perceived my time with his brother as an act of favouritism.
Upon reflection, I could have done better to affirm my second son. He did not need us to intervene much in his school work or life. It is easy for a child to silently compare himself with his siblings based on how their parents related with them. My wife and I had always treated our boys fairly when it came to gifts or rewards, firmly avoiding favouritism. What we needed to also give was equal time and attention.
I apologized to my son that I had wronged him, and had not spent adequate time with him. I assured him we couldn’t ask the Lord for a more perfect (at least, in our eyes) son than him. I was more mindful to make time for him to hear from him how school went, his joys and challenges.
This incident was short lived. Although he accepted my apology and explanation, it took him a while to fully realize we truly valued him. In later years, he became a positive influence to his younger brother and was much respected by his older brother.
To avoid a communication breakdown, Christopher adds:
First, never be afraid to say, “I am sorry”. Our children deserve to know we can err in our ways with them. (Colossians 3:21). Second, pray that God will help you be the parent He wants you to become, and they watch you honour God in your words and actions, they want to honour Him too. (Deuteronomy 6:4-9). Third, find time to talk. The presence of God must be realized in and through our conversations with them. (Proverbs 17:6)”
Christopher and Rebecca are from Emmaus Evangelical Free Church. Christopher is the National Director of Our Daily Bread Ministries, Singapore. From 1999 to 2004, he served as National Director of Singapore Youth For Christ.
Wee Boon Choon navigated a stormy ride with his son but now enjoys a smooth ride together. He shares what he did.
My eldest son did many things in his teens I disapproved of. Once, I paid him a surprise visit at his part time job, and caught him wearing an earring. I asked, “What do you think you are wearing?” He took it off at once. We did not talk about it.
I was very hard on him in his teens. He did not like to study and preferred volleyball (he came from a top school team). Being old-fashioned, I wanted him to study hard and get a degree. This was our main reason of conflict. Just before his ‘O’ level examinations, our tension was even verbal, involving a war of words. I estranged my son. I humbled myself and sought counseling.
When he was 17, I apologized to him. He remarked that just saying sorry didn’t mean everything was over and wanted me to prove it. He walked off. We would not talk about our hurt again. My attempt was not really from my heart. I felt, “Why should I be the one to say sorry? He’s at fault!”
While in polytechnic, my son could not cope with his course. I knew he was afraid to tell me he wanted to quit. I thank God I managed this issue better.
It was already 2 am. I waited for him to talk. What surprised him was I did not jump at him. I told him I realized he was not inclined to his course and encouraged him to consider early enlistment. He was interviewed, picked for military intelligence and signed on for 10 years. Army life did him a lot of good. We communicated better, respecting each other. On the surface, we were cordial but our ‘wound’ was in ‘cold storage. ’
Years later, at a session by The World Needs A Father (TWNAF), the Lord convicted me to seek my son’s forgiveness. By then, he was a 34 year old father of four.
We got him over for dinner alone. After our meal, I spoke up. He brushed it aside. My wife, Kim Hong, intervened. I went on, “Daddy really wants to make it right and ask you to forgive me for all my harshness and the hurt I’ve caused you.” I continued. He nodded and finally responded, “Daddy, I forgive you” and we hugged. The healing began.
I made myself accountable to others. My tension with my son became less and we got better at talking with each other.
To Boon Choon, it is never too late to seek reconciliation with your child. He shares:
First, recognize you have hurt your child. Second, the onus is on you as the parent to think of a way to reconnect with your child one-on-one. It could be inviting him or her for a walk together or in my case, having my son over alone for dinner (he loves his mother’s cooking). Third, be ready and truly sincere to reconcile.
Boon Choon (left most) and Kim Hong attend Lighthouse Evangelism. He helps couples and families in crisis. He is a trainer and facilitator for Centre for Fathering-Dads For Life workshops and Breakfast with Dad programmes, and a volunteer in the Singapore core team of The World Needs a Father.

My 93-year-old father always said that “You cannot choose your parents or your siblings, but you can always choose your spouse”. We meet someone, date them, and ultimately choose one person to spend the rest of our lives with. However, in any relationship, things happen – challenging things - that may cause two people to go their separate ways.
For those whose relationships are just starting out, or who are in a committed relationship, we encourage you to sit down with your partner to discuss this important topic. Money is one of the top three leading causes of divorce in the world1, and you may find that you differ in your expectations for spending, saving, and managing money:
- Save or spend?
- Fun first; Pay bills later, or the reverse?
- How do we pay bills?
- Split down the middle, each spouse pays for their assigned billing items?
- Pay bills from a joint bank account?
- Do we contribute to retirement accounts or not?
- Should we buy a home or rent?
- How will we use credit cards?
- Pay in full or just the minimum?
- How do we decide to buy something that we do not have cash to pay for?
There is no right or wrong answer to any of these questions. The key is to communicate your view. Feeling empowered with money begins with accepting who you are, your relationship with money, and finding courage to share that part of you with the person you plan to spend the rest of your life with. In working with women throughout the years, I have learned that a long-lasting marriage usually requires a blend of open communication, intimacy, and empathy.
In working with our female divorcees, we have found that each person's circumstance is unique. Moreover, we have noticed that those who plan well while they are in a relationship were more in control of their finances after the relationship ends. Regardless of who makes the final decision to divorce, you want to be in a place of confidence. Divorced women who feel financially capable are more able use their time and energy to deal with the process of divorce, grieving, and healing.
For those who are experiencing or considering a divorce, we encourage you to take a proactive approach, especially when it comes to dividing assets such as a home.
- If you own a home, speak to a mortgage advisor to understand your options, even if you think you lack enough income to support a mortgage on your own.
- Consider the timeline for certain transactions as some options are not available during an ongoing divorce.
- Avoid making verbal agreements with your spouse that may not be fiscally realistic.
- Understand your income needs.
- Feel free to reach out for connections to professionals within our network to guide you through those financial aspects of a divorce that can be especially complicated.
An in-depth checklist for securing your financial future before or after divorce can be found here: Checklist: Divorce
When I was a child, I heard my mom jokingly say to my dad, "My money is my money. Your money is my money. Are you with me?" Although this message is a bit tongue-in-cheek, it has stuck with me and has guided me to be in charge of my finances. She worked all her life and was a good saver. She sent both children to college outside of the country. She retired at age 58. Although she is still happily married to my dad, going 61 years strong, she would have been financially okay if her marriage did not work out. My mom has proven to be in control of her money in both bad times and good times. If someone you know is experiencing or preparing for a divorce, please feel free to connect them with our firm.

This page includes some family photos. If you have some photos you'd like to share with other family members, please
send them to me and I'll post them here.
Black Family Vault, St Judes, Randwick
Burials in the Black Family Vault include John Henry Black (1799-1867), his wife Louisa Skinner (1808-1874), and two
of their sons, Albert Thomas Black (1840-1890), and Sydney Augustus Black (1847-1900).


One can hardly describe a mixture of feelings a man experiences while spending time with London escorts girls. Pride for himself, passion, adventure, adrenaline and some fear of exposure. All these feelings give a good charge of energy and fresh emotions. The fact London escort submissive girl should be always satisfied (money, sex and attention) brings that spicy moments. No woman can be kept without sex. So, see her at least a couple times a month. Otherwise, she will get bored and find another partner. Scandals a wife arranges out of jealousy may be completely baseless. During such moments, you feel quite tempted to really cheat on her. However, if you think petite London escorts are not jealous, I will disappoint you: they are. They are just calmer and less aggressive. When a girl is seriously sad, this means she loves you. Avoid being rough. When you feel tired of a lover, break the relationship smoothly. Generally, finding a new partner for a girl is an ideal completion of relations.


By the time you read these lines, I’ll be gone. It may shock you, but I've been thinking about leaving you for months—since that day at the beach last summer. But let's not go there. Not now.
Over the last few years, you slowly began to demand more of my time—time usually spent with friends or family. I was dependent on you, at a period in my life when I needed to be independent. I feel sad admitting I won't be able to be with you anymore. But I know I'll be a more complete person as a result. You will be angry. You will resent me. You have that right. I cannot stop that.
Alcohol, we have been through a lot together. Our romance was a whirlwind romance. When we first met in high school, you validated me in ways that no one had before. With you in those early days, I felt a sense of belonging--a belonging I had never felt.
In your murky depths, I saw a reflection of myself. You allowed me to be whomever I wanted to be. You listened. For a while, our relationship worked well for me.
But you changed. I changed.
By the end, we were all wrong for each other.
I just felt betrayed by you one too many times. The false hopes. The empty promises. I slowly came to realize that your smiles were placating and sycophantic. You turned into my enabler. Perhaps I was the real betrayer. I acknowledge this. I betrayed myself by allowing you into my life. You never forced yourself upon me. It was I who sought you out.
I don’t blame you for anything. I have no resentment. I only want to move on.
You may ask, "What about all those late nights? All the times we made love?"
My answer is that, in the end, I was just going through the motions. I faked it. I lost pleasure in our encounters a long time ago. Yes, I can admit that now. I don't feel good about it.
But I do remember the good times. I'll miss the laughter, the mirth. I'll miss our circle of friends- scotch, bourbon, beer.
And who could ever forget wine? Yes, wine with her purple eyes, her long, sleek neck.
But there is someone new in my life. Her name is Coffee. She is hot, lovely. She's also black. Does this surprise you? Coffee picks me up in ways that you never could. By the end of our time together, you could only bring me down.
Coffee and I are beginning to create more of a life together than I could ever hope to have with you.
I hope you can one day understand and come to terms with what I have done. I can only thank you for our time together, and for everything you have taught me about myself.
We'll always have college.
Please, don’t try to find me.

TLimS Week 9: Mark 10
I think, if I am not mistaken, this will be my last post of this series. It's really just because, well, I am out of things to say :). I wanted to investigate the idea of God as our shepherd and how He has provided for me in my life. I wanted to share my experience with my awesome shepherd, and I know, for me, this has been reflective and useful in my life, as well as a great reminder of how great God is, has been, and promises to be.
I want to end by talking about our special relationships--our significant others. The last two weeks, I've been discussing the way God provides for our emotional needs. People all need to be loved in a sacrificial way, in a way that knows our deepest souls and secrets, a way that only God can love us. And last week, I was sharing about how if we don't fill ourselves first with God's love, then our community and our friendships often (unknowingly and unintentionally) suffer.
Of course, with those who are closest to us, our boy/girlfriends and wives/husbands, the same is true.
To be honest, there's not much to add or say that I haven't already said last week (hence why this is the last post of the series). I could definitely say a lot more about relationships in general, but I want to focus in on specifically why God is so important when it comes to marriage.
My own experience with this came at some point in my dating life. I heard of this idea through the book Boundaries by Henry Cloud and John Townsend. They are Christian psychiatrists/counselors who write about relationships and how to have healthy ones. One simple idea I remember from them is taken from Mark 10, that marriage is about two becoming one, and in order for that to happen, you have to have two independent, distinct people first.
In context, they did not mean that each person needs to be perfect before having a healthy marriage or getting married, but instead, they meant that each person has to be complete. In other words, marriage was not created as a way to complete two people through a relationship.
Maybe that sounds obvious, I mean, if I asked anyone if that is what marriage is about, I bet close to no one would say yes. But I think nowadays, we have some ways of talking and thinking that actually embodies this idea of two people being complete through marriage/dating without saying it so obviously.
The whole compatibility idea seems fraught with this idea of completion. People talk about how you should be "compatible" with your spouse. Whenever I ask what that means, the examples I get usually imply something about being incomplete without the other person. For example, I heard at a Christian seminar once that compatibility is like where whenever one person is tired or cranky, the other person is there to help cheer them up or be really positive. Other common examples of "compatibility" are where opposites attract, like one person is anti-social while the other is super social so together they have good balance. Or one person tends to over-react to things, while the other is really calm, so they together compliment each other.
I'm not arguing or saying that compatibility is necessarily wrong--I'm just saying it's not biblical :). I mean, compatibility is no where in the Bible. Trust me. Again, that doesn't mean it's necessarily wrong, after all, if it's not in the Bible, then the Bible doesn't say it's wrong! But I think somewhere inside the idea hides this notion that the other person completes you. Somehow, your spouse and partner in life makes you a more whole person, and if that is happening, then you should get married, implying that the foundation of a good solid marriage is that two people are completed (or more complete) in the union.
Another example of a common belief about marriage/dating that seems to hide within it the idea that two people are completed through the relationships is "finding your soul mate." I'm not actually sure if this is still a commonly held idea, but I certainly have heard this in movies, where someone believes in finding their ONE true love, aka soul mate. I honestly have no idea what a soul mate is... I think Elanor is my soul mate... but I also think she became my soul mate once we got married!
Anyway, I think the soul mate idea could be (in some cases) about completing oneself. Usually, people describe the soul mate as someone who just gets you--who you have some supernatural connection with and it just seems like it was all destined and meant to be because of the electric connection. I really do get the image in my head of two puzzle pieces in a 1 billion piece puzzle finding each other and realizing the connect.
Well, clearly this idea might imply that indeed two people somehow complete each other in the process of finding one another, especially the embedded idea that your soul mate just gets you or knows your inner soul unlike anyone else in the world. This really seems to suggest that they provide a deep, intimate love that perhaps you need... that marriage is about feeling loved and known by someone in this deep, intimate way, and that this somehow completes you.
Indeed, one could easily interpret the Mark 10, "two become one" idea as being about completion, right? Two becoming one... that definitely sounds like making a complete whole, no? But it is important to note that the metaphor is not about two puzzle pieces joining as one, or two halves making a whole. Instead, it's about two people, already whole and complete, meeting each other in a joining union.
If we come to our relationships and our attitudes about marriage with the idea that some how, this person is going to fulfill something in me that I could not otherwise obtain on my own, those relationships are going to let us down.
As I talked about last week, only God can know us fully, intimately, and without fail. No boyfriend, girlfriend, wife, or husband will ever be able to know our every thought, desire, and need. No relationship, no matter how perfect, can ever fulfill us, provide meaning in our lives, and love us the way we don't even realize we need to be loved. Only God can.
Marriage (and by extension, dating) is about two people coming together because, put quite simply, that's where God led each person. Marriage is about attraction, commitment, and learning to love. Marriage is two people, already whole, completed because of Christ in their lives, coming together to become one--living their lives together, and seeking out to become of one mind and one heart--with each other, and with the God that lives inside of them.
It's true, then, that the best thing you can do for yourself in preparing yourself for marriage or dating is to become a whole person. I don't mean working hard to become perfect, or becoming super independent and self-reliant. In fact, I mean the opposite--become a person that relies fully on God to fulfill our every need. Even more importantly, become someone who understands and knows that you are loved by God in a way that no one and no thing, anywhere in this world could ever provide.
If we cannot accept God's love, we cannot learn to show love to others, and therefore we cannot become people who have healthy relationships. It starts with God loving us first, providing for us as an eternally loving shepherd who deeply loves His sheep.
Be a sheep. Learn to become one. Sheep are stupid. They follow anything blindly. They are crazy cute too :)! And they place their entire lives (every part of it) in the hands of their shepherd. Food, water, rest, protection, direction, companionship, and love. Sheep rely on their shepherd for all these things. Become a sheep, because we want God to become our amazing shepherd.

Y’all, I’m so behind on my writing. This happened a few months ago and I jotted some notes down but I’m just now getting around to posting this…I mean, I have a book to write but I’ll never get to it if I can’t get all this other mental clutter out first.
A few months ago, I met a high school acquaintance for dinner. We spoke fairly regularly for a few years and then she got married and we drifted apart. I never thought her marriage would last and sure enough, when we started catching up with each other over enchiladas, she told me she had been divorced for about two years.
Ironically, the divorce was the best thing going on in her life. Shortly after she and her husband split, she realized she never loved him the way she should have and wasted nine years of her life with him. But she did get a free house, car, and dog out of the deal so it wasn’t a total bust. But other than that, she felt inadequate and turned to alcohol and random sex partners to ease the hurt of being alive.
The more we talked, the more I realized we were basically the same person, Siamese twins conjoined at our crippling insecurities. I felt bad for her and felt even worse when I had no advice to offer up. Usually I can dole out a few words of wisdom and guidance that soothes whatever aches the person I talk to but with her, I had nothing because I’m going through the same problems.
She doesn’t have a job and lies in bed all day and drinks. She said she stays, at a minimum, buzzed, and at maximum, blacked out drunk. She has one night stands. She has no purpose, no guidance, no one to love her. She thinks she’s disgusting, which she’s not. She’s a very pretty girl but all she can see is the “big girl she used to be.” I also understood that. No matter how much weight I’ve lost or will lose, I’ll always feel like the fat guy.
I wanted to both hug and throttle her but couldn’t because 1) I don’t like touching people and 2) I know I wouldn’t have gotten through to her. I think she’s just going to have to go through whatever she’s going through and either become numb to the whole thing or finally snap out of it somehow. I didn’t think there was a cure for what ailed her. There was only control. She can control her symptoms. She can minimize the hurt but if she’s anything like me, and I believe she is, the pain will never go away.


This goes out to my first ever ex-boyfriend.
I know you broke up with me because you thought you couldn't make me happy. I understand that there are parts of your life that you can't control, and those things result in you having little time for me. You broke up with me because you felt like I deserved better. You broke up with me because you thought we needed it.
I am writing this to tell you how wrong your thinking was.
You assumed I was not happy because you had barely any time for me and could never properly express your affections for me. True, there were times that I felt sad because I missed you after not having seen you a few weeks, but I never felt that the time you gave me wasn't enough. It was in fact one of the best feelings, knowing that there was someone who used what little free time they had to go out of their way to come see me. I never complained about that. And whenever you couldn't bring yourself to tell me you loved me? Yes, it was saddening at times especially when I needed to hear it the most. There were nights when I doubted if you loved me at all. Those nights were the most challenging. But I didn't give up on you because I believed you loved me even without those words. You were able to prove it to me, time and again. Hearing or reading the words would have been nice every once in a while, but it was never a requirement. We loved each other, and we were always sure to show it.
You assumed I was not happy because you were not good enough. The truth is that I always thought you were way out of my league. Hell, maybe half the time we were together I was scared that you'd realize that, too. I was always the one feeling inadequate. I'm not good-looking like you, or successful, or intelligent, or own a car, or have any exciting hobbies. All I ever had to offer was my love for you. And I tried to give you as much of it as possible, to compensate for my lack of anything else. You were more... way more than I could have ever asked for. And I had you. And I failed you.
You assumed we needed to break up as it would have been better for us both, considering the circumstances. If only you knew how much you inspired me. If only you knew how much you motivated me to do well in school, so I could graduate, get a job, and finally be able to help build a future with you. You were the reason I strived so hard. Thinking about you, talking to you, having you to cheer me on the whole way, those were my fuel. I thought music was my passion, but never have I felt more passionate about it than when I had you to give me purpose. I wrote songs about you -- about what you meant to me and how happy I was with you. I needed you. I still do.
I have felt angry and depressed at your decision. But I cannot deny that I still love you, and that I miss you and I want you back.
You said this would only be temporary; that someday we'd get back together when things in your work and family life calmed down. You told me you still loved me and that we'd still be friends. Lately, though, we haven't been speaking much. Our conversations are short, cold, awkward, distant, and lifeless. You seem disinterested in me now. Do I not mean anything anymore? Is this how you really feel, or are you just coping? Do you really still love me and are willing to try again someday?
Or is it all over? I hope not. I'm not over you.
I haven't given up on us. Please don't give up on us either. I need you to be my puppy again.

Do you hear and see love in the world? It is there and usually in the places where love is needed most. Rev. Benjamin E.E.

The amazing man in my life came to visit me this past weekend for a little over 24 hours. It was the perfect little visit to catch up and see each other after two weeks apart. Long distance is hard, but totally worth it because 124 days from now I will be married to him and we will get to spend the rest of our lives together. I know that God placed Brent in my life so that together we could somehow better serve Him kingdom. I cannot wait to find out what God has in store for the rest of our lives together!
Romans 12: 9-13


In finding the perfect theme for a wedding, the couple should discuss all aspects with each other. They have to figure out what they really want. In addition, when they do know what they want already, they can then turn to their wedding planners. These planners can then incorporate the preferences of the couple into the wedding package that they are preparing. If the couple prefers to prepare their wedding themselves, this can also be arranged. With a little push and shove from the Internet, you can find various themes that you can use for your wedding.

Do not make rigid forms of your social relationships, kind of saying to yourself and silently to the other one that now we are pals, friends or lovers. Such rigid forms make you not able to adapt to the changing situations. When the relationsip needs you, you are not there. And when the other one is not trustworthy, you still are there as if she or he were the embodiment of trustworthiness. So you ruin a relationship with rigid forms. Instead be reactive. Give yourself room to live in and the give it to the other one too. When the rigid forms do not make you agitated, you feel more happy and fullfilled, and so every kind of relationships work better too. Let your feelings, fair play and each moment dictate what you do - but choose fairly! Sometimes you need new distance and to let the relationship be born anew again. Sometimes you need to be trustworthy to the extreme for your friend to find safety and a long term reliable friend in your comany. Fairness is the rule that you need to play by: not naive and not a bastard. Let your emotions give spirit to each time you meet and let the other one live by his or her own rythms too, finding pleasure in your company. To like and to be liked, and to share common interests and the pleasure of having company and a reliable friend.

Don't let it get to you, no babe
Girl I know your fed up
But things gon' get a lot better
Don't let it get to you, no baby
Don't want to see you give up
Whatever you do don't let up
Girl I know that things are hard now
And you're feelin' like you're all alone
Mom and Dad's no longer 'round now
Cause now you're grown, with kids of your own
Babies dad is no where to be found
While you play the role of Mom and Papi
Raisin' the all by your self
Always home and can't go out now
Can't remember the last time that you were happy
Whatever you do
Every man that you meet on the streets
You're lookin at him like he's an enemy
(Just give us one more chance)
Girl I know that you can't hurt no more
You've been damaged can't trust nobody
And I know that you can just move on
If you let your past go with the wind
And smile more often
You will find that guy you always wanted
From friend to husband.
No matter how bad things get
Girl don't let it ge to you
I no your tryin to make ends meet
Girl don't let it get to you

If a loved one has moved away, or you have moved across the country or to a different country, you’ll want to know how you can stay in touch with your friends and family. Thankfully, due to modern technology, distance no longer means the end of a friendship or the end of contact. Whilst letters would still be a fun and sentimental way of communicating, there is nothing like seeing your friends face to face, and just having a light-hearted chat you couldn’t do through letters. Read on to find out ways that you can stay in touch with long-distance friends and family.
- Arrange regular video calls or phone calls. Make sure both of you have good wi-fi, or a plan that allows for cheap international phone calls if necessary (contact Vodafone Sligo for a good plan) as well as access to technology like a phone, tablet or laptop that you can use to make video calls. Having a regular time to speak to each other is a good way to avoid there being long periods of time without communication, and the hassle of trying to find a good time to speak over and over again.
- When you’re not talking to each other, find ways to show your friend or family member that you are still thinking of them. You could send them a message saying ‘good morning’ with a photo of the sunny sky or something you’ve seen on your way to work- like a pretty flower you think they’d appreciate. If you do some baking, you could share a photo of what you made. If you like memes, you could send these to joke with your friend.
- Lastly, get creative about how you can celebrate together if it’s someone’s birthday for example. You could have a virtual party and send surprise gifts to their house.

Understanding whether the person is a saver or spender, whether they budget and how they approach financial honesty are all good steps in determining whether your new love will make a good long-term financial fit, experts say.
People are still old-fashioned about certain financial arrangements. Despite changes in how women approach work and earn money, there are still some old-fashioned traditions that have stuck around.
One that continues to remain: Men paying the bill on the first date, as 84 percent of men surveyed by TD Bank claim to do. Their female dates back up that claim, with just 6 percent reporting that they pick up the bill on the first date.
Even couples in committed relationships tend to defer to the male mate when the bill arrives, with 63 percent of men saying they pay for date nights while just 8 percent of women say they do the same.
The same goes for wedding expenses. Old-fashioned rules remain. Respondents still think the bride’s parents should have a role in paying for the wedding, with 14 percent saying the parents of the bride are responsible. Just 1 percent thought the parents of the groom should have a role in paying for the wedding. On a more modern note, 33 percent said the couple marrying should pay, and 51 percent said costs should be shared among the couple and their families.
Also keeping with tradition, women respondents were more likely to say they make everyday shopping decisions, while men were more likely to report taking the lead on large-scale purchases.
Divorce doesn’t have to be a financial disaster. Ending a marriage can be financially and emotionally stressful, but some divorcees approached it positively. In fact, more than 40 percent said they were better off financially after divorce. This was reported equally across gender.
“Initially, [divorce] can be frightening,” Sweeney says. But it’s a chance for new singletons to review budgets, savings, retirement and other financial goals. It might be a chance for someone who was married to a spender to return to previous frugal habits. At her firm, Sweeney says, “we make [divorcees] set up a whole budget.” For some newly single people, this exercise helps them take back control of their money situation and regain confidence.


Valentine's Day is tomorrow and all the stores are full of red, pink, and hearts everywhere! I thought it would be fun to do a linkup for this day of love. I hope you can be a part of it. How do you be a part of the linkup? Well, the question is,
WHO OR WHAT DO YOU LOVE, WHO LOVES YOU, OR WHAT DOES LOVE MEAN TO YOU?
I can't wait to read all your posts and hopefully make some new blog friends along the way! So, let's get on to it...
WHAT DOES LOVE MEAN TO ME?
Since I don't have a sweetheart at this moment, I've been thinking about this question a lot lately. There are many people in my life who show me love. My parents, brother, sister in law, friends, coworkers, etc. I hope eventually I will find that special person to show me love as well. With that being said, to me, love means:
1. Being giving and selfless
2. Supporting someone even when they make poor decisions
3. Forgiving someone when they let you down
4. Being there for someone when they need you
5. Appreciating the person for who they are and loving them and their faults
6. Sharing your experiences with them to help them avoid painful mistakes
7. Cherishing the time you have with that person no matter how short or long
8. Standing up for that person and being loyal to them
9. Doing little things for the person to remind them you care
10. Telling someone you love them

If you are thinking about filing a consumer proposal to resolve your debt problems, you might be asking: “does a consumer proposal affect my spouse?”
Well, here’s some good news: unless you have shared debts, shared assets or own a house together, a consumer proposal doesn’t impact anyone else but you.
Read on to learn more.
Does a consumer proposal affect my spouse or partner?
In most cases, a consumer proposal doesn’t affect your spouse or common-law partner.
Just because you are married or living together as common-law doesn’t mean your debts affect that person.
If the debts belong solely to the person filing the proposal, only that person is affected. The debts are in your name, and they will only affect your credit, not your spouse or partner.
However, if you have shared debts, your partner is liable if you file a consumer proposal. In situations where two people share similar debts, a joint consumer proposal is an alternative option.
Lastly, you don’t have to enter into a consumer proposal just because your spouse does.
Does my spouse’s income affect my consumer proposal payment?
If you decide to file a proposal, your spouse or partner will be asked to provide their income.
This allows your Licensed Insolvency Trustee to calculate your total household income.
Your spouse or partner can decline to provide this information, but it makes it easier if they do.
If you have shared debts, such as a loan or joint credit card, a consumer proposal impacts your spouse or partner because each person is equally responsible for the debt.
Ultimately, the lender has the right to request payment from either person if one cannot pay.
So, if you file a consumer proposal, your spouse would be liable for whatever portion of the debt that remains after a consumer proposal.
If you’re not sure if your spouse or partner has responsibility for certain debts, you must find out before filing.
You can do this by checking your statements, calling the creditor or reviewing your credit report. By doing so, you know that the debts are solely yours.
Can you file a consumer proposal if you own a house together?
If two people have a mortgage together, the person filing the consumer proposal may owe creditors a portion of the equity in the house.
The person who is not filing keeps their share of the home equity, and this portion does not go to your creditors. This process may also apply to other assets, such as a vehicle.
A joint consumer proposal is when two people enter into a consumer proposal as one filing because they share the same debts.
To qualify, both parties should share equal responsibility for the majority of the debts in question.
See also: Filing a joint consumer proposal
If you file a consumer proposal, your spouse or partner will not be affected unless you have shared debts or assets. If this is the case, it is possible to file a joint consumer proposal.
You must prepare and file a consumer proposal with a Licensed Insolvency Trustee.

ok so this post isnt really that interesting or necessary but i REALLY wanted u guys to know! i had THE WEIRDEST dream last night!!!!! like k so im at home sitting in my bed and the doorbell rings... guess who it is... YOU! like actually it was just a girl with black hair and she was really skinny and she says to me "happiness??? OMG!!! it is u! oh wow i cant believe i found u!" after i figured it out i invited her in (idk how to explain 'her' but it was all of u guys like all ur personalities in this one girl!) we talked in my room for a bit, like she told me how she just bought new skinnies (size 00) and i told her how i grew back into my old size 7s :(
we talked about sex, sexuality (aka my lezz or bi friends and hers too, idk why!) then we went outside for a walk, and we ran into some of my old guy friends. one i used to date for a while (running back-football coach now) and we went for a drive with them, and she was texting me the whole time.. nothing really interesting but we were best friends, like idk how to explain it, we made inside jokes, laughed, talked about everything, had no secrets.... she was my best friend and she just randomly came to find me! but it wasnt just one girl (although ill admit when i woke up i thought it was Isla Lynn) it was all of u guys...
i guess i've really gotten close to a lot of u girls, more then i thought :)
you guys are more then just my 'online friends' you guys support me and make me feel loved. you are my family when i have no one to turn to. and its not just a one sided friendship, i love and support each and every one of u! i wish that one day all my weird dreams of meeting u guys come true! maybe one day... (my life goal is to travel soo.....)
- me and KD are still together, over 7 months and we are going really good
- im out of treatment and trying my best to give myself a future!
- this blog is now 100% about recovery and if u ever want to say anything or ask anything have no fear! u will never be yelled at for ur thoughts!

Tiger Woods has just announced that he and his wife Elin are getting a divorce. Everyone, sports fan or not, is well-versed in the Tiger saga that began with a bang last November, so I won't rehash it here.
Just a few of Tiger's alleged mistresses
A joint statement on Wood's website states that "We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future." According to the Associated Press the couple will share custody of their two children and "reports" are floating around that Elin will walk away with between $100-$500 million.
The couple in happier times
Hopefully this story will now go away. Some of the things I have read about Tiger are now seared into my mind like scenes from a horror movie. I would be very, very happy if Tiger's sex life (shudder) was kept well-hidden from now on.


It is important that you speak about activities that the ex appreciated. Quite a bit of men and women screw up since they only speak about things that they miss. Make sure you are referring to stuff that your ex misses as well. Here is a good illustration of how this should be finished.
Most men like to divide and conquer. With that being claimed, don’t make it way too quick for him to come back back. Even so, prior to deciding to reach this phase, you might want to first Establish fascination on his portion in desirous to get back together with you.
Once you’ve mirrored over the circumstances surrounding your breakup, it’s time and energy to target setting up self-clarity.
Consider how you felt while you had been in the connection. How was your self-esteem and self-assurance? Did you think your associate showed appreciation and like for you personally? And why Are you interested in to acquire back together with your ex?
Truly, in my investigate I found that loads of professionals suggest contacting (after the no Call period.) I have examine numerous stories of girls who've essentially experienced some success with this technique. Even so, I don’t like the cellphone for many reasons.
First of all, don’t stumble upon him “on goal”. You understand what Meaning. 2nd of all, should you really accidentally bump into him, then right here’s just what to do. Be upbeat, positive, and in a good temper Whilst you’re talking to him. Let him direct the conversation and decide the topics, and whatsoever you are doing don’t deliver up interactions or your romance with him.
The answers to those concerns will help you figure out the likelihood of finding back together and no matter whether that’s a good plan. Regardless that a breakup hurts, that doesn’t automatically imply you need to continue combating to get a relationship that isn’t Functioning.
This is about trusting that giving him time will make him miss you, and stepping into a much better attitude so you're as beautiful to him as is possible.
Wherever achievable, and when you finally have the ability to do this following the agonizing interval has handed, get back to getting you, do things which cause you to joyful and do all it is possible to therefore you live your life to The purpose of the radiance coming off you. Gals who have them selves in this manner are extremely desirable to Males.
Just chuckle and nonchalantly say “It’s only espresso” or “arrive on it’s only lunch” normally that “umm I don’t know” will change into an “ok”
I stared at this new Jeff before me. I could just wander away and Are living The one existence for some time. Have fun. Enjoy the sphere. Forget about all about him and obtain someone new. But I'd invested an more info excessive amount of On this particular person, and deep down, I understood that he seriously did appreciate and take care of me.
A man sites increased value on what he has to operate for. When you miss out on your ex, Will not allow it to be easy for him. In place of calling him all through a weak second, contact a supportive Good friend rather.
Usually men don’t like to harm your emotions. Therefore, it is actually fully attainable that whatsoever purpose they gave you with the breakup will not be completely real. I’ll admit that we men from time to time don’t even know why we want away from a romantic relationship we just do.
In any relationship, you always have in order to exhibit that you understand what you wish. Do you have a vision for the future?


I remember when the first our conversation.
I remember when you touch my face and hold my hand.
I love everything you did to me.
now, everything suddenly change. you never make our night conversation so sweet.
Idk why...maybe you've find another girl that more than me.
although it hurts, I still pretend nothing happened. how strong I am...
Walaupun gitu, I still love you...Gege‹з


This is so incredibly true. But I love for so much more than this too. Real love isn’t just loving the way someone lights up when they’re happy. Its loving someone because of that look on their face when they’re most vulnerable. The way they talk when they’ve had a horrible day, but you still want to talk to them. Its not all about the happy. Any relationship, friend or otherwise, is about loving and understanding all of those moods. And loving them all the same.


Since when did it become more important to remember your smart phone on a dinner date than your manners?
My husband and I were out for dinner the other night, and I noticed a couple seated nearby. They were both on their cellphones for the entire evening. I don’t think there was a single minute that the phones went away. Every now and then one of them would stop and look up, wait awkwardly with no one to talk to, and then get back to the phone. They were glued to their devices for over 2 hours.
The only time I saw either of them smile was when they were posing for a photo when their meal came out, so they could Instagram it and show their friends what a fabulous evening they were having.
The great irony in this world of ieverything, is that in our attempt to miss nothing, we are missing so much.
I want to spend more time experiencing the moment, than instagramming it.
I want to spend more time talking to the person next to me, than texting someone who’s not with me.
I want to hear the stories that the person across the table has to tell me, rather than the latest news story.
I want to be present, and to engage all my senses to truly appreciate the moments that life offers.


Transparency is vital to success in any marriage. Before the Fall, Adam and Eve were “naked and not ashamed”. They had nothing separating their relationship. But, the entrance of sin caused them to hide from God and from each other. Shame, fear, anxiety, guilt flooded their beings; we have inherited the vulnerability to those feelings as human beings ever since. Are you feeling any of those feelings or other negative feelings now? One of the best ways to deal with them is through sharing them with God and with your spouse. Light drives our darkness. By telling the truth, you are set free. Keep in mind that feelings in themselves are not right or wrong. It is what we do with the feelings that can be problematic.
Hiding behind our feelings for any reason separates us. Over time those emotions can grow in power and cause trouble. But, if we can TRUST each other and be TRANSPARENT, we can be real. That’s important because often we can be tempted to be who we are not because we fear rejection. We can say to ourselves, if he or she knew me, they would not love me. That belief motivates withdrawal into safety but it can isolate us. Over time, God’s Word tells us that it is not good to be alone.
To be fully known and fully accepted is the pathway to health. Always tell the truth to one another according to Ephesians 4. If you are troubled and your partner asks you how are you doing? Risk rejection, be vulnerable. We need to be able to tell each other that it is safe to share our feelings whatever they may be. If I truly believe that it is safe to let my spouse know me and love me, I can come out of hiding and find acceptance. The alternative is to remain in darkness. Take a look at John 3, notice that Jesus is calling us into the light. Be honest with God, confess, be real, tell the truth. If we fail to do that with God, we suffer for it. If we fail to do it in our marriage, it will cause pain. Bottom line, acceptance of one another’s feelings is how we are emotionally intimate in our marriages. Emotional intimacy is every bit as important as physical intimacy. Being One Flesh, being “naked and not ashamed” goes far deeper than our bodies, now we are talking about our souls.


Had a guy hit me up today asking could we be friends. So I’m like what kind of friends you talking about. He gone say friends so we can know each other better. I’m like what. We have to get to know each other better to become friends. You can’t just hit me up saying you wanna be my friend and think I’m a be like yea sure we can be friends. Truth be told I don’t want no damn friends. I’m Cool with being alone. Only real reason I need to be spending time with someone is if there spending money, we making money together or we getting a nut. Either way money comes first. We really have no other reason to be in each others company.

We represent our clients:
- in divorces,
- in disputes over the regulation of rights and obligations towards
minors (contact arrangements, maintenance, failure to fulfil
obligations, educational measures)
- in proceedings concerning the adoption of a child
We seek to achieve agreement between parents in the interest of minors while
also cooperating with experienced professionals (child psychologists). Our
priorities are the best interest of the child, communication with parents
regarding the need for professional assistance, and working to improve
communication between the parents at least concerning the children.
After a divorce, clients also usually contact us in an effort to resolve and settle
a tenancy by the entirety.


In our investigation into the nature of reality and God, much seems to rest on the simplest things. Specifically, the family appears to be central to our understanding. That is, every aspect is reflective of both the message of Christ and our relationship with God.
As children, our hope, fears, and faith our placed on parents. The same is our relationship with God throughout our entire lives. As a parent, we ideally exercise personal live towards our children - interest in their development and progress towards adults. It appears God's relationship to us is similar.
The ideal family relationship is often reflected in exercising unselfish love towards one another. This often expands to our extended family, whom are naturally the first we look for with assistance in times of trouble.
Christianity as a whole has always propagated this idea, though it is especially emphasized in Mormon theology.
Familial love, children, marital partnership - these essential aspects of our humanity and understanding Christ and our relationship with God.
Of course, these same things are specifically undermined in the modern world. It seems, top down, to be an attempt to subvert this archetype of our relationship with God. The sexual revolution undermines the unique and sacred marital relationship, and specifically its supernatural and material link to children. The "right" to separate this role from the creation of children, and more specifically the right to murder undesired children. The easy with which one can separate the scared marital union. Finally, of course, of late is the undermining of marriage itself. The corruption and mocking of its meaning and attack on the reality of gender itself. The delaying of children, the subversion of this most important role for women.
It is, not only the archetype of our relationship with God, but of course it is the most important thing to man himself - by extension community, ethnicity, country. That is, so goes family so goes man.
To step away from the cynicism and evil of this is to celebrate God and most important. That is, to make family the most important thing next to God. To embrace it, to make it a priority.
What churches are emphasizing this? What churches are celebrating it in its proper role as the most important thing? Who dares to stand for God in the face of rampant subversion and evil?
That is no exaggeration, for man himself is nought without our familial relations to one another and God Himself.


If you have Chlamydia you should let any sexual partner(s) you may have know as soon as you can.
Chlamydia is passed from one person to another by sexual contact.If you have Chlamydia, then it is very likely that one or more of your sexual partners also have this infection.
Telling your sexual partners is important because it:
- is the only way most people will know they have this infection
- stops you getting the infection back again
- shows your partner that you care about them
- reduces the chance of your partner developing serious problems such as infertility.
- stops your partner passing the infection to others
Remember, most men and women with Chlamydia don’t have any symptoms and so they don’t know they have the infection.

Histone-like nucleoid structuring (H-NS) protein is a component of bacterial chromatin and influences gene expression both locally and on a global scale. Although H-NS is broadly considered a silencer of transcription, the mechanisms by which H-NS inhibits gene expression remain poorly understood. Here we discuss recent advances in the context of a ‘love-hate’ relationship between H-NS and RNA polymerase, in which these factors recognise similar DNA sequences but interfere with each other’s activity. Understanding the complex relationship between H-NS and RNA polymerase may unite the multiple models that have been proposed to describe gene silencing by H-NS.


are my father you are my mother you are my lover and best friend.
You are the mountain you are the ocean you are beginning and the end.
I love you Lord ’cause you make me see, see you in all, see
you in me.
I’m in you and you’re in me

What if you were to start to see the value of you in every relationship you have?
Join Rachael for an 8 weeks exploration of the book Divorceless Relationships by Gary M. Douglas & Dr. Dain Heer.
Whenever you divorce any part of you and whenever you doubt that your own point of view has any value, you devalue you and make it as though you are nothing. That is not acknowledging you nor is it seeing the value of you.
What if you were willing to always be you and state your point of view without trying to see the rightness or the wrongness of anyone point of view, including yours
Whenever we go to the wrongness of us and judge ourselves, we are deciding that we have no value.
What if the value of you was greater than you were able to see?


Random sketches with Older!Hiccup and Viking!Jack~
Gonna leave my headcanon here if Jack was in the sequel:
《MILD SPOILERS BELOW》
After Valka was kidnapped, she understood that dragons weren’t as dangerous as people in Berk thought them to be. After some years, Valka stumbles upon Jack, who is just a kid, and discovers that he had been shipwrecked and had lost his family, so she takes him with her and teaches him everything about dragons. Years pass and while Hiccup is trying to escape from responsabilities, Valka manages to find him and bring him to her cove, where he discovers her true identity and is introduced to Jack, who is now a grown up boy. The relationship between Jack and Hiccup is kind of awkward because Jack had never spoken to anyone except for Valka, but they eventually get to know eachother and grow closer. Valka, who had already understood that there was something between them, decides to leave them be. Hiccup slowly becomes aware of the romantic feelings that are growing for the white-haired boy, while the latter is just confused because he feels funny around the other boy.
With the battle against Drago, where their lives are put in danger, they understand their feelings and ( after the confession and an overly dramatic kissing scene ) finally manage to defeat Drago while protecting eachother.
In the end, Valka reunites with Stoick and Hiccup brings Jack to Berk with him where they live together as a happy family, the one that both Hiccup and Jack had always wished for.
(Sorry for the bad English >.> )
Well, I really hope that my little idea can inspire someone to actually write a fic based on this xD
Sorry for the long post and enjoy my favourite dorks being flirty with eachother (~-▼-)~


Ack!! How fun!! Can't wait to hear more details!
pinksundrops: I know! K.
I wish I had the means to travel like you do. :)
abzdragon: Yeah, I have been really lucky. But I think I've given up some things to do it-- like, I really envy you for your amazing relationship with your fiance! I just don't have the time for a meaningful relationship of any sort. So we all have our pluses and minuses in life.K.
I am so jealous!
l sass: I'm rather jealous of me too!K.


From “America’s librarian” and NPR books commentator Nancy Pearl comes an emotionally riveting debut novel about an unlikely marriage at a crossroads.
George and Lizzie have radically different understandings of what love and marriage should be. George grew up in a warm and loving family—his father an orthodontist, his mother a stay-at-home mom—while Lizzie grew up as the only child of two famous psychologists, who viewed her more as an in-house experiment than a child to love.
Over the course of their marriage, nothing has changed—George is happy; Lizzie remains…unfulfilled. When a shameful secret from Lizzie’s past resurfaces, she’ll need to face her fears in order to accept the true nature of the relationship she and George have built over a decade together.

Although the mechanisms are not clear, APOE4 is associated with an increased response to neuroinflammation and a higher risk of developing late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here in the Yassine Lab, we wanted to further understand the relationship between APOE4 genotype and cPLA2 activity. cPLA2 activation is involved in inflammatory signaling and becomes elevated within the plaques of AD brains. This was identified in clinical studies that noted greater cPLA2 activation around AD brain plaques and in the CSF of patients with AD. We executed this research through experiments that used Mouse primary astrocytes along with mouse and human brain samples. These specimens had differing APOE genotypes and were collected to evaluate cPLA2 expression, phosphorylation, and measures of inflammation and oxidative stress. The observations that came from this research were astonishing. In the primary astrocytes, brains of ApoE-targeted replacement mice, and in human brain homogenates of patients with AD dementia, higher cPLA2 activity, and greater cPLA2 phosphorylation were identified in ApoE4 compared to ApoE3. Along with this, increased cPLA2 translocation to cytosol was observed in human postmortem frontal cortical synaptosomes with recombinant ApoE4 than ApoE3 ex vivo.
Throughout this research, our findings implicate greater activation of the cPLA2 signaling system with APOE4. This can be monumental in playing a role as a potential drug target for mitigating the increased neuroinflammation with APOE4 and AD.
