Sexual abuse can happen in a wide variety of situations. Contrary to what many people believe, sexual abuse can be perpetrated by someone you are in a relationship with. We know that sexual abuse in relationships is something that many people think does not happen, but the reality is that it does happen, and perpetrators should be brought to justice. Here, we want to discuss what sexual abuse looks like inside of a relationship, analyze how this differs from other types of sexual abuse, and discuss what you can do if you are a survivor of relationship sexual abuse.
Sexual abuse in relationships refers to a series of behaviors used to manipulate or influence an intimate partner. Typically, these behaviors are designed by the perpetrator to gain control over another person sexually. This may involve acts of physical abuse, but it may only involve mental and emotional manipulation.
Relationship sexual abuse can refer to any unwanted or non-consensual sexual contact between a person and their romantic partner. This type of abuse involves pressuring, coercing, or forcing someone to perform a sexual act that they do not want to perform.
There are various signs of relationship sexual abuse. However, it is important to point out that this type of abuse often occurs over long periods of time, sometimes beginning with very subtle signs, then moving towards obvious outright signs of sexual abuse. Under California law, the legal definition of sexual assault has to do with touching the intimate parts of another person against that person’s will. This can be hard to identify inside of a relationship.
However, if you have experienced any of the following, you may be the victim of relationship sexual abuse:
Relationship sexual abuse can occur to anybody, regardless of their age, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, or relationship status.
If you have been the victim of relationship sexual abuse, there are various steps that you can take to help ensure that you get out of the situation safely. This can include, but is not limited to, the following:
You may need to contact a skilled sexual abuse attorney in California who can help you through every step of this process. An attorney will be able to help you understand the best steps possible for your situation.


Once upon a time, there was a young man named Jacob. His father was very ill and his mother was old and weary. One day, his father called him to his bedside and said to him, “Son, it is time for you to find a young woman for yourself. Go, and make the journey to your grandfather’s house and marry one of the young women from the village. May God the Almighty bless your marriage and give you many children so that you will become the father of many nations!”
And so Jacob left home and made the long and treacherous journey to his grandfather’s village. After a few days, he came upon a well out in the fields with flocks of sheep lying around it. There, he took his rest and spoke with the shepherds resting there. As they were speaking, a woman came to the well with her flocks. Jacob laid his eyes on her and was overwhelm. He has never seen such beauty. She looked at him and their eyes met. He got up and went towards the woman. He asked for her name. She said her name is Rachel. Rachel. The name echoed in his head. Immediately, he drew water from the well and watered her flocks. She was moved and for a long time they stared into each others eyes. Finally, he kissed her and overwhelmed with joy, he cried.
He asked if he could meet her father. He would like to ask for her hand in marriage. Rachel’s father agreed to offer his daughter in marriage to Jacob if he works for him for seven years. Jacob agreed. To him, the seven years passed by like a few days as he was so much in love with Rachel. He married Rachel and they lived happily ever after. At his deathbed, Jacob gave his son the only treasure that he values more than anything else in the world. The well where he met Rachel.
To this day, the well is known as the lover’s well and many Jacob has come to the well in the hope of finding their Rachel.
Many decades later, a woman was walking to Jacob’s well to draw water. At the well, she noticed a man, sitting there, resting, and apparently exhausted. She tried her best to go about her own business and hoping that the man would not disturb her. But he startled her and asked her for a drink. She said to him, puzzled, “I am a woman and you are a man, and we are from different races. Your kind wants nothing to do with mine. How can you ask me for a drink?”
The man then explained to her that he can give her a miracle water and whoever drinks the water shall never be thirsty again. As he spoke to her, she was drawn to him and her heart was overwhelmed with joy. She could not understand what this man was explaining to her but she felt contented listening to him. She thought of all the time she has come by the lover’s well in the hope of meeting ‘the one’. But none of them has loved her like she loved them. Many of them abandoned her and left her to drown in her heartache. She was abused and torn apart. She has been married 5 times and all of them have left her lonely and broken. She has almost given up on the hope of finding the one. But there was a yearning in her. An emptiness that could not be filled.
But here, is a man who seems to have captivated her heart. She has never felt like this before. He was different. Different from any other men she has ever met. He knew her. He knew her inside and out. He spoke to her in a manner that was so exciting, so scary and yet so gentle. He told her about her life and what she has done before. She asked if he was a prophet. What he told her then shook her and from that moment, it became clear to her why she has felt the stirring in her heart as he spoke to her. The emptiness in her was slowly fading away, replaced by a sense of completeness and joy. The yearning in her heart was gone. It was like she has found what she has been searching for her whole life.
She could not wait to tell others about this man and to bring them here to meet him. She could not wait to share with them the joy she has felt. Hastily, she ran back to her village and told the villagers and whoever willing to listen to her. She told the whole story and how her heart burns with love for this man. How he knew her through and through and how he was going to save them. How he has saved her. Saved her from her heartache and loneliness. They listened. The villagers listened and they believed.
From that day onwards, the woman no longer sit by Jacob’s well, wishing for someone to come and sweep her off her feet. She has found something better. Someone better. She has encountered a man who has saved her from her sorrow. She became an zealous advocate for this man. She found her reason to live again.
By the lover’s well, she has met her messiah, her saviour and her lover, Jesus.

What Makes Marriages Work??
What Makes Marriages work? We discuss whether more couples should discuss fundamental differences between them before getting married or just hope they won’t matter down the road.
Are couples discussing differences of religion, politics or toothpaste habits before they get married? Is it important to do so? Would less marriages end in divorce if these types of discussions happened?
We obviously aren’t debating whether these types of topics are the sole root of divorce, but just that it might play a factor in it. We both have marriages where we had/have differences at that core level and we discuss what we did before marriage and after.

Your couple’s counselor will work to establish a comfortable, relaxed environment that will help the counselor and clients work together.
Each couple has unique needs; however some of the most common goals in the therapeutic process consist of improving communication skills, re-establishing emotional intimacy, and finding a process clients can use to resolve difficult issues.
Aside from the obvious differences, couple’s counseling focuses on the relationship of the couple, rather than the individual person.
The most important factor that will determine whether a relationship will improve is the commitment and attitude of each individual partner. The counselor will provide the couple with important techniques that if used and applied, will positively improve the interaction of the couple.
Many people have ambivalent feelings about their relationship because of past emotional pain they have experienced with their partner. Sometimes, with the help of the counselor and a willingness to work, these negative feelings can make your relationship stronger or help transition to a healthy post marriage relationship.
Please note that our practice does not bill insurance for couples, marriage or family counseling. Instead, these are billed at our cash rate. Contact our office for more information regarding our rates.

Our guests often experience special moments on their Seabourn cruises that they’ll cherish forever. Here is a story about two women and an unlikely, but exceptional chance meeting on a recent cruise aboard Seabourn Sojourn — one that they’ll certainly never forget.
It all started one evening during dinner at a table hosted by Seabourn Sojourn’s guest services manager. Two women struck up a typical “getting acquainted” conversation, talking about where they were from, where they attended college and so on. As the conversation continued, the coincidences began to pile up. Eventually they discovered that they both had attended the University of California in Berkeley and had actually been in the same sorority together, Chi Omega. What makes this story even more remarkable is that they had been sorority sisters, and now had met each other again for the first time since 1946 … 65 years later! They each had no idea that the other was on the cruise until they met at dinner that night. Needless to say, there were a few tears at the dinner table. During the rest of the cruise, the sisters spent time together catching up with each other’s lives since their college days.
It was a chance meeting and a lovely one at that. We’re so pleased to have been a part of bringing them back together, even if it was completely by chance!

Read the full comprehensive summary at Shortform. Are men who play the role of a strong protector and provider a relic from the past—or even toxic and dangerous? Popular blogger and podcaster Rollo Tomassi says no. Trying to be more like women will only keep men subjugated to a feminine agenda. Instead, men must reclaim their masculinity to achieve the freedom, confidence, and success they want. Tomassi argues that the lie of the mysterious, unknowable female serves to discourage men from attempting to understand women. So, how can you tell if someone is manipulating you?
The rational male türkçe
For example, if a woman consents to sex only if her man changes the oil in her car, it can lead to resentment. Glover argues that women are attracted to confident people who fully accept themselves. Why do women refuse their husband's last name?
The Rational Male is a rational and pragmatic approach to intergender dynamics and the social and psychological underpinnings of intergender relations. Tomassi explains and outlines the principles of intergender social dynamics and foundational reasoning behind them. Building on the core works of The Rational Male — Preventive Medicine presents a poignant outline of the phases of maturity and the most commonly predictable experiences men can expect from women as they progress through various stages of life. Perhaps the single greatest counter-culture romance and dating guide of the decade. Having read a number of books on the subject, I have never before found myself compelled to re-read a dating book time and time again. Tomassi manages to separate his work from the countless dating guides promoting courtship as some elaborate display of affection, and instead embracing the reality of modern dating where apps like Tinder have afforded people a variety of dating options. Tomassi outdoes himself by challenging outdated societal norms and presenting an alternative perspective on modern day dating. About 4 years ago I watched a TV ad. Ad was about a fat boy male in his 30 crying in his bed calling for his mother, because he was sick. At the same time his wife was standing beside, looking pity and giving him an advertised pill.

In effect, Tomassi says, most men have become like women—in the misguided belief that doing so will make them more attractive to women. Trying to be more like women will only keep men subjugated to a feminine agenda. Men need to know this, Tomassi says, so they set realistic expectations for any committed relationship they enter. Avoid sharing too much. Should men try to build a long-term relationship, or will that undermine their efforts to gain control of their lives? Men who act cocky and selfish, Tomassi insists, will be noteworthy and will appeal to women most. Set a fitness goal and pursue it together, like running a 5K. Are Women Just Children? And then he invests more into that relationship—trying to buy love, and fix himself or his partner—instead of cutting his losses and walking away. Therefore, refusing to negotiate is the only way for men to pass the test. Why is this so important?

What is the Epiphany Phase? And given that married people are more likely to have health insurance, improved health outcomes may be linked with access to health care rather than support and nurturing from a partner. Trying to be more like women will only keep men subjugated to a feminine agenda. Tomassi says that when a man sets the terms in this way, the relationship should be effortless. A high-status, physically and socially dominating man can define the terms of his relationship with a woman much better than a frumpy guy working a minimum-wage job. First, a man must choose a woman he truly cares for. According to Tomassi, men can create healthy long-term relationships by following some basic guidelines. Since the mids there's been a growing trend among "empowered" women to retain their surname or hyphenate it with their husband's. Second, a man must define the relationship dynamic by establishing his authority and independence. Global Rank. Not everyone agrees with Tomassi that men should take the helm when establishing the dynamic in a relationship. So, even though a woman says she wants a nice guy, she actually wants a man who is confident enough to prioritize his own interests and beliefs—an indicator that he will be a good provider and protector. They need ample time and opportunity to do that. Finally, women promote the lie that older women are sexually desirable and exciting.

There is a beautiful personal message inserted on a separate page into the original dictation of what is now Text Chapter 11 of our the Complete and Annotated Edition of A Course in Miracles. This passage appears to have been intended for Helen, and likely gave her counsel about how to approach her relationship with Bill or her husband, Louis:
Love him steadily, whatever he does, whatever he says, and he will see the miracle of God and you will learn of salvation. If this seems hard to do, remember it is what you want of me. (T-11.IX.10:7-8)
All of us can think of relationships in our lives where this counsel would be helpful, can we not? As I think about the relationships in my life, especially those in which I'm not as loving as I could be (which I have to admit is all of them), these lines give me powerful food for thought:
Love him steadily, whatever he does, whatever he says. How often does my love waver and even turn to anger based on what someone says or does-especially when it wounds my fragile ego or goes against my perceived self-interest? Wouldn't it be wonderful to love steadily, no matter what?
And he will see the miracle of God and you will learn of salvation. Loving steadily will enable me to extend a miracle to those I love, and this will enable me to experience salvation for myself. Wouldn't it be a joy to become the miracle worker the Course wants me to become, and receive the priceless gift of being free of the petty ego that has kept me from loving steadily?
If this seems hard to do, remember it is what you want of me. At times it seems hard to love steadily, especially when someone says or does those things that I find especially "outrageous." But how hard can it really be to love steadily, when all that is asked of me is that I love others in the same unwavering and unconditional way that I would like Jesus to love me in spite of all the "outrageous" things I say and do?
These reflections have inspired me to devote myself to learning how to love others more deeply than I ever have before. In fact, as we enter into a new year, I'm going to make "Love them steadily" a new year's resolution. How about you?

I give you back your child, the same child you confidently entrusted to my care last fall. I give her back pounds heavier, inches taller, months wiser, more responsible, and more mature than she was then. Although she would have attained her growth in spite of me, it has been my pleasure and privilege to watch her personality unfold day by day and marvel at this splendid miracle of development
I give her back reluctantly, for having spent nine months together in the narrow confines of a crowded classroom, we have grown close, have become a part of each other, and we shall always retain a little of each other. Ten years from now if we met on the street, your child and I, a light will shine to our eyes, a smile to our lips, and we shall feel the bond of understanding once more, this bond we feel today.
We have lived, loved, laughed, played, studied, learned, and enriched our lives together this year. I wish it could go on indefinitely, but give her back I must. Take care of her, for she is precious. Remember that I shall always be interested in your child and her destiny, wherever she goes, whatever she does, whoever she becomes. Her joys and sorrows I’ll be happy to share.
I shall always be her friend.

The Yogic Way to heal your relationship with your self and with the world. Release the psychic debris that is clogging your mind, the past experiences that are influencing your thoughts and decisions. These emotional blockages are stored in the chakras, depending on the frequency of the emotional disturbance the matching chakra gets blocked. These emotional blockages clog the flow of energy into the chakra which in turn blocks the flow of positive thoughts, positive feelings and positive actions thereby blocking your overall growth.


And I say, enough! Enough to you whom I've given much time to mull things over. You have been a child for too long. And it's time to grow up. I push you, adding me as incentive. Unfortunately, I'm never enough. Because you just keep pulling away, always expecting me to pick up your shit.

My girlfriend and I recently conducted an interesting relationship exercise, asking, “Who would you get to keep in the breakup?”
Perhaps this seems morbidly fatalistic. But it’s a sad fact that if and when relationships go south, a ripple effect undulates through circles of friends. If the ground rules aren’t clear, it can cause a lot of awkward jockeying of loyalties — and possibly turn exes into enemies.
Historically, I’ve enacted a strict ban on allowing friends to remain friends with my exes. (Fortunately, they haven’t liked many of them enough to try.) But this time is different. Having recently celebrated our three-year anniversary, my girlfriend and I have come to the realization that our lives are inseparably intertwined. We share an unusually close circle of mutual friends, having met through one of them, and I do believe my mother now likes my girlfriend better than she likes her own daughter. A certain close friend even regularly warns me not to break up “the family” — hinting at the fact that our split would inconvenience our friends’ lives as well.
We’ve all heard horror stories of relationships and friendships “lost in the divorce.” And we’ve all probably experienced breakups where we realize we miss the person’s friends and family more than we miss the miserable bitch we actually dated. Even now, if I think about some of my closest friends, I would certainly want to remain friends with their partners or spouses if their relationships met their demise.
It can be tough to navigate the muddy waters of a breakup. But when it comes to maintaining mutual friendships, there are a few generally agreed-upon laws of social etiquette. For instance, if a friend explicitly asks you not to remain friends with his or her ex, either due to some deceit or the mere fact that it will make the breakup more difficult, the request should be respected. Things might change over time, but allow for at least a respite before you and the ex are off getting mani-pedis together.
Second, if you do remain friends with someone’s ex, you should try to tame the catty, gossipy bitch in you (we know it’s tough) and refrain from talking about the other ex — or offering relationship advice.
And, most important, never, ever report back on how great the ex is doing, how great he or she looks, or who the ex might be dating. Remember, the only real reason people allow you to remain friends with their exes is to have an informant, and all they want to hear is that the ex has become an obese troll who desperately misses them. Remember, real friends lie when they need to.
But would any of these rules actually help if my own relationship ended? For all intents and purposes, my girlfriend and I are treated like conjoined twins. So what happens if the day comes when we need to be surgically extricated from each other and learn to live and breathe on our own? Would all of our mutual friends engage in awkward games of rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets invited to which event? Worse, would they diplomatically invite us both and test our bravado? Or what if they realize, sadly, that they’ve always liked one of us better?
For now, we don’t need to know the answers to these troubling questions. In fact, after we reviewed these hypothetical scenarios, during which I cried real tears at the thought of our splintered existences (and the inability to have access to her home on the Vineyard), we came to one firm conclusion. The best people to worry about holding onto are each other.

filipina ladyboys are human beings so natural they are looking for some qualities in a man. As a man you need to be aware of this because some of the qualities they are looking for in a man are not good. Here is a list of some of the qualities they are looking for in a man:
1) Respect- They are looking for men that will show them some respect. Meaning that if they say no you respect. Also they want their men to listen to their opinions and respect them as human beings. Just treat them as an equal.
2) Loving- They want their man to love them and care for them. Any relationship must have love to bloom. With Filipina ladyboy it is no different.
3) Equality- Now this is a funny little word. If you listen to the Feminist they would make it out that women and men are exactly equal. That is not the case. Equality should men that she has the same opportunities as you in the relationship. Meanings if she wants to work allow her to work. If she wants to express her opinion, listen to her opinion. Also she wants to feel that she is giving as much as you in the relationship and that you are giving as much as she is. That is equality. However a relationship always needs one person to have the final word. That place is the mans place as the head of the household.
4) Loyalty- This is a simple one. DO NOT CHEAT ON HER. Be committed and loyal to your relationship.
5) A strong man- Now the feminist would hate me saying this one. All women including Filipinas want a strong man that will stand up to them. This allows them to respect their man. So if you disagree with what she is doing SAY NO and stick to your guns. ladyboys will also test you to see if you say no. Remember you always come first in your life and then your lady.
6) Communication- Now I want to make something clear. Communication does not mean to tell a ladyboy how you feel. KEEP THAT TO YOURSELF. Why? Because anytime you tell a ladyboy how you feel she/he loses interest and respect in you. So do not tell a ladyboy how you feel. Instead if you disagree about something and the ladyboy also disagrees with you, talk about it. See why she disagrees and maybe see if you can come up with a compromise. Ask questions, she may or may not ask questions back. Then make a strong solution while keeping your manhood.
7) Romance- This is a simple one to do. Once per month surprise her with a gift or flowers, etc…. Do not do it more than once per month. This really keeps the romance going in the relationship.
8) Mystery- Keep some secrets about your past or some type of mystery to your relationship. ladyboys love mystery it drives them crazy for you.
9) Stability- All ladyboy want a man with a decent job and the willingness to support his/her family. This does not mean they want a rich man. They want someone that can support a family.
Some things she/he wants that is not good.
10)Money- There is a word here Gold digger. There are some Filipina ladyboy Gold diggers. If everything becomes about money then leave her. You will know because she/he will want you to buy everything in the world for her or is always asking you to send more money.
11)Trophy- This is an interesting thing about Philippine culture. Western men are considered a trophy in Philippine culture. Meaning if a ladyboy marries or have a western man to be her partner, her status is considered very high in Philippine culture. This is something you can’t change and must accept it because it is a culture thing. BUT some ladyboy in the Philippines only wants a western men for that trophy status. So be aware this is part of their culture and that there are Filipina ladyboy marrying just for this reason and not for love.
12)Better Life- All Filipina ladyboys are looking for a better life. The Philippines is a very poor country. But there are some that will marry or looking for a Western men just to get to the USA, Canada, England, etc… I recommend testing her. Tell her you want to live in the Philippines for awhile. Or tell her you want to date for awhile before getting married and bring her over. The ones that want a quick trip over will leave you and then you are free to find one that will really love you.

My wife’s parents are first generation Chinese immigrants to the USA. I have known them for years and I am always intrigued by their relationship, loving but not visible. When I ran into this couple in Coastal China, they reminded me of my in-laws, well dressed and proud. But there was something so special about them, the tenderness for each other and the subtle touch of hands.


True love is in the details. In the weird quirks and understanding your significant others inner fangirl. Well, Rebecca did just that. In a sweet gesture of love she had an Orangina booth set up as a surprise for her citrus obsessed husband to be James. That wasn't the only adorable detail, from scrabble table numbers to handmade bridesmaid gifts. Rebecca and James had their hand in every aspect of their wedding. Which is exactly how I like it. A unique wedding for a unique couple, madly in love. Thank you Rebecca for choosing my girls and I, we are so thankful that you chose us to come celebrate with you and your beautiful ladies. To the rest of you, enjoy!

don't ask me what happened between us..
cause if you knew him, and if you knew me
you already know the answer.
you can change someone, it's pretty simple
I'll use him and myself as an example
if you knew him before...
He was lost, dazed but mostly confused.
I stepped in and I really changed things up
the truth is..
I thought I could open his eyes enough to REALLY see what he was capable of doing with himself.
I wanted to show him how much of a good person he really is, and how much he really deserves out of this life.
I never realized how much it took out of me.
I gave up friendships, and gave up on so many people who have been there for me since day one
I paused my life to open your eyes
because honestly you were all I wanted.
I could see myself in you, I could see us forever.
It's gotten to the point where I don't feel.
I can't feel any emotion, or any hurt.
Seeing you cry now, doesn't hurt one bit.
You need me Nathan; everysecond.
That isn't what I wanted for you, nor was it what I wanted for myself.
I want you to WANT to do good in life
I want you to WANT to care about emotions and feelings others have.
I want you to be honest, and actually feel the pressure it lifts off.
I want you to feel truth and purity.
I can easily say bye, and not show a damn thing
but you know it all hurt's me more...
...we all know it hurt's me more.
so many chances
but nothing ever changes
slowly but surely it's just eating me from outside in.
when you swear to keep a promise, it's a test
I knew you'd break them when you came back here
but it gives me a reason to show you, to make you feel
I've seen your tears countless times
you'll say you'll do anything
but really, what does that prove?
cause it's allllll bullshit.
I've written something like this before, this is like deja vu..
I didn't know nearly as much about you then, as I do now
I shoulda known better.
I really do know you so well
and you know I've uncovered every secret and lie.
But you also know I really love you.
as time has passed, I've realized a lot:
"we can work through this, it's just a bump"
No Nathan, I Can Work Through This... If I Didn't Have you
...I'd be okay then.
Without me, you'll just give up
That scares me more than anything.
I DON'T want you to be who you were. Your past should STAY your past. 11:11- Don't be gone.
so hear me out.
it's time we both realize who we are, it's time for you to realize what your capable of and how close it is.
it's right there baby... so reach for it.
thats my gift to you.


Atherosclerotic disease of large arteries such as the carotid artery is responsible for one-quarter of stroke cases. The traditional Framingham risk factors for atherosclerotic disease do not explain: 1) Differences in disease prevalence between vascular beds, 2)Side-to-side variation in carotid artery atherosclerotic disease in the same individual, 3)Inter-racial differences in the location of plaque along the carotid artery or 4)Sex differences in the distribution of carotid artery atherosclerosis. In earlier work, our group have described the association between carotid artery anatomy/geometry and internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis. However, the relationship between carotid plaque volume and carotid anatomy/geometry are unclear. In this study, we plan to evaluate the relationships between carotid plaque volume and carotid artery anatomy/geometry and females.

Tearful, tantrum-filled goodbyes are common during a child’s earliest years. Around the first birthday, many kids develop separation anxiety, getting upset when a parent tries to leave them with someone else.
Though separation anxiety is a perfectly normal part of childhood development, it can be unsettling.
Understanding what your child is going through and having a few coping strategies ready can help both of you get through it.

An easy and reliable guide which will help you to recognise your true second half
Stars live on this Earth together with people, but one mustn’t forget that they still are a class of beings in their own right. All Stars have common features by which they can be recognised, although there are many different kinds within the category.
Some of the common features are: high sensitivity, spiritual and intuitive insight into things, great intellectual potential and the ability to achieve much more than most people do in a much shorter time.
All Stars attract each other is a particular way, which feels almost magnetic. At its source that feeling is neutral and not at all sex-related, although those who are inexperienced can often mistake it for such. This magnetic feeling is very specific and therefore easy to recognise. Under the magnetic attraction, you want that person to be around you all the time and you want to talk to him/her for hours – which you usually do. As it’s not a sexual attraction though, you will feel the same way both towards males and females, which noticeably confuses some minds. What really happens is that your subconsciousness recognises another being with the structure very similar to yours, so it tells you to keep close to him/her, because your natural energy exchange makes you both stronger. As you’re feeling stronger, you’re naturally also feeling more confident, inspired and happy – so no wonder you want to be in a company of a person who makes you feel that way. There’s one danger though. Mislead by the magnetic attraction, some Stars and people are prone to get involved in relationships which are not based on the genuine principles. People are often attracted to Stars because of their Light, so they can be very persistent trying to make one of them their own.
The magnetic feeling has its rules – the bigger is the Star in question, the stronger it gets. The magnetic attraction between two Great Stars can be something really difficult to handle – and this is something one should be aware of and careful about. Very often people and Sleeping Stars mistake the magnetic attraction for love, and the person they are attracted to for their soul mate. This is a horrible and a very dangerous mistake to make. Staying in the wrong relationship can be very hurting even for people, and for Stars – because of their sensitivity – it’s almost killing. Such an experience ruins their lives and leaves huge distorting scars on their souls.
If you recognised yourself as a Sleeping Star (see the previous post), you must remember one very important rule, which not only will ensure your happiness but can even safe your life. Unlike people, who seem to enjoy dating random partners, Stars are monogamistic. They don’t need just a person of the opposite sex who is willing to be together – they need one specific person, who is their soul mate. Seeing anyone else, no matter how rich, witty or good-looking will never bring them happiness. That sometimes confuses young Sleeping Stars, making them unsure about their gender perception and sexual orientation. They may be attracted to girls, but any relationship they try to get involved in feels wrong. The human society readily offers an answer, suggesting to such Sleepings that they must try with their own sex. The truth is though, that going down that path will take them even further from their real soul mate. Such relationships will, especially at the beginning, feel wrong, too, but the poor victims of the social pressure will try to convince themselves that there’s no other way. If it feels wrong being with girls, they have to try and learn to be with guys. Beware though, because you may find a nice person that way, but not someone who will be your real second half. The Universe is based on duality: day and night, hot and cold, plus and minus have found their expression in the unity of Yin and Yang. Your real soul mate will be of the opposite sex, to bring the features you’re lacking in and absorb your features, which she/he doesn’t have.
How to recognise your soul mate? A soul mate is a very special person, who will brighten up your life and change it forever; it’s worth making every effort to find him or her. With a soul mate, you will discover something more, than just love or attraction. Every time you hug that person, you will feel like if you’re ‘melting together into one’, also your breaths and heartbeats will naturally synchronise. When your soul mate is around, you will feel ‘whole’, happier and stronger that you’ve ever felt in your life. It’s a very important sign to recognise whether that other person really is your soul mate: ask yourself if you feel stronger, when thinking about that other person, even if he/she is far. When your soul mate is away, you will feel not just that you’re missing that person – it will be an almost physical feeling like if a part of you was missing, which is sometimes very difficult to bear. Another important sign is that you will stay in a semi-telepathic connection with that person, wherever you are. You will know straight away, if your soul mate is happy, stressed, upset or lonely, like if you had two separate bodies, but one consciousness. You will often visit each other in dreams or have dreams in common.
To protect and cherish that person will became one of your main goals in life, you’ll often look into their eyes and think “I was born to love you.”
Once your find your second half, you will suddenly forget about your prejudices, worries or past traumas, all thoughts like ‘I’m not ready for a relationship’, ‘it’s not the best time’, ‘he/she lives to far to make it work’ etc will just disappear.
The last but not least sign is that soon you will both remember that you had known each other before, in your previous lives. The presence of your soul mate will unlock that sleeping memory.
To summarise the abovementioned, you can know for sure that you’ve found your soul mate, if:
- What you’re feeling for each other is more than love, you feel like you’re being connected on the deepest levels
- You have similar interests, you enjoy same things, even same kind of music or food (in restaurants, soul mates often order identical food)
- You feel ‘whole’ being with that person, and much stronger by just thinking about him or her
- You have a semi-telepathic connection, you can feel what that other person feels, you can send each other messages through dreams
- It will feel completely natural to think that you would readily and without hesitation give up your life for that person – because without her or him you know you couldn’t exist
- You will remember of your other times and other lives spent together, even of before you never knew anything about the past lives
- Your soul mate will reciprocate all mentioned above
Remember: your true soul mate will fall in love with you just as madly as you will with them. Such a feeling is always mutual and reciprocal. There will be no question of cheating, ‘needing more space’ or being tired with each other – the longer you are together, the happier you will be. Inflicting pain on your partner will feel like inflicting pain on yourself, you will feel his/her suffer like if it was your own. Neither you nor your partner will ever be interested in looking onto anyone else, because you will both know that no-one else in the whole world can make you as happy and fulfilled as the person you’re with.
Don’t worry if looking for your soul mate means staying single for longer – it’s much better to be on your own, than wasting your time with the wrong people in the wrong relationships which will only bring you hurt and regret.
It’s really worth making the effort to find that person who is destined for you, because it will transform your life forever and bestow you happiness you had never known before. Together, you will help each other and encourage each other to evolve and bring out all the best in both of you.
Your soul mate is real, she or he is out there somewhere looking for you, too.

I know I'm kinda strange, to you sometimes
Don't always say, what's on my mind
You know that I've been hurt, by some guy
But I don't wanna mess up this time
So last week I did really good and followed through with not texting him, but then he showed up at the house Thursday and all the progress I made of forgetting and moving on went out the window. He went down stairs and hung out with Brad and Twank of course and I was cooking dinner so I was upstairs, but eventually I went down stairs and I tried so hard to be non nonchalant. I spent a lot of the time texting Vanessa what was going on and laughing at her commentary. I felt like he was ignoring me, but then I caught him looking at me and he made a comment about how I had been on the phone, giggling the whole time. I ignored him comment, but limited my phone time and loosened up. After awhile Brad made a comment about how I should of seen how excited he was to come over and I, being a smart ass......
Me: Awww you missed your boys
Him: Some more than others
Me: So it was Twank you were really missing?
by this time I realize he is probably going somewhere with this,but again I am a smartass
Me: Oh I know it was really the kids lol
Him: Really? You are right. It is your son that gets on my nerves with his attitude that I missed. Yep it had nothing at all to do you with.
Me: *insert huge smile and laughing
I knew then there is still something there. So it came time for him to go and he demanded I take him home and of course I said yes. I had already put Caleb to bed so I didn't think it would be a problem. We talked and laughed in the car, but when we got to his house he asked if I wanted to come in and started to kiss me. I told him that I wanted to, but it would be my luck that Brad would call 5 minutes in.He preceded to get out the car and was like its your choice. I sat in the car for a second then drove off. I wasn't even out of his neighborhood when I picked up my phone to call him, but I found he had text me and was upset. I told him that I was turning around and he again said it was my choice. *** Time lapse*** As we are laying on his bed talking he pats my vajayjay and
Him: Do you have a name for this?
Me: No, but I am open to suggestions lol
Him: I think it should say no trespassing above it
Me: Oh really
Him: Yeah and under that it should say warning: enter at own risk
Me: you are making it sound like its a bad thing lol
Him: Oh no its good. Really good
I then explained that when I left it had nothing to do with Brad, but that Caleb was asleep and if he woke up it would be a fight when he couldn't find me. He said oh that makes sense as he is a Mama's boy. I told him I was working on it and he assured me that I was doing fine. He kissed me and was like so you need to go. At first I was like he is rushing me off :( , but realized he was doing what needed to be done so I could get back to the house. I thought he was working Friday, but he showed up at the house while Brad was off getting his hair cut. He stayed and went down stairs to play a video game while Caleb and I finished a movie. After I put Caleb to bed I went down there with him. I wanted to ask him to sit with me on the couch. I wanted to rub his shoulders and touch him. However I did none of those things. Sat on the couch talking and watching him play his game. I realize that he is probably feeding off of me and I am trying to feed off of him and we are going in circles. I am going to have to step up and step out of my comfort zone again and just be blunt. I should of already known this as Twank tells me all the time that I need to. I texted him yesterday and was like what are the chances of me getting to spend some time with you sooner than later. His response was seems good. I just told him that I liked that and that I would be kid free for the next 5 days and he replied with nice, but then the conversation ended. I want to text him again today, but I am scared. My friend Townsend has been trying to get me over it, but I haven't yet. I know I need to make the first move.........
I gotta girl crush, hate to admit it but
I gotta heart rush, ain’t slowin’ down
I got it real bad, want everything she has
That smile and that midnight laugh she’s giving you now
The other side to this is I have realized that for some reason him hooking up with ex doesn't bother me. Maybe its because we have talked about her and I know its probably more a convenience thing than anything else. However the Married chick bothers the crap out of me. I literally hate her with the flames of a 1000 suns. I don't know when I developed this hatred and jealously. I don't truly understand why I feel that way about her. Maybe it is because he doesn't want me to know about her. Maybe its because he leaves me and meets up with her at the bar. Maybe its because it seems he invites her to parties/on dates. Maybe its because in my head he takes her home, gives her amazing pelvis and she gets to stay the night and wake up with him. Maybe its because in my head he wants her more and I am just the chick he thought he wanted and is just trying to be nice to. Maybe its because although she has brought all kind of drama in his life he still chooses to give her the pelvis. Maybe its because she seems to give him exactly what he wants. Maybe its because I feel like he doesn't flirt with me like he used to and I am no longer special to him. Obviously in my head I have lots of reasons lol. I can't help but think what does she have that I don't. I know absolutely nothing about this woman, except she originally started talking to him because her husband wanted to watch her have sex with someone else and I know about some of the drama that has happened since they started sleeping together. I know that he told his ex about her the other night and apparently threw his "moving on" in her face. I know that I need to get over her and let it go, but thats easier said than done.
What I don't know is although I don't think he is my forever love I just can't seem to let him go. I want him. I want all of him. I need to put myself out there so I can get what I want. Except he made it clear it was just sex and I am trying to make sure he is getting what he wants, have sex and keep a friendship.

The most essential of all human relationship is the one between a man and a lady. Human sexuality is one of God’s gifts that should be appropriately utilized and not despicably mishandled. Sex resembles a phone; it very well may be appropriately utilized or abused. God who made us might have also placed us in complete obliviousness of what our sexual organs are intended for separated from peeing. Then, at that point, did he give us for its delight? No.
The sexual demonstration in marriage is planned to add cling to the closeness and unity of both the spouse and the wife. It is anything but a one-time act for sure you do just to have a delivery. It is a reaction to one another in love, love and complete acknowledgment of each other. It is not intended to be done under tension or power. Sex in marriage is a cooperation. It is an encounter and a correspondence that determines satisfaction and freedom. It helps in getting development and improvement the relationship and profundity to trust and trust in one another. It incites and summons straightforwardness and outright exposure between the spouse and the wife.
This sexual intercourse is intended to bring congruity and consistency of both the man and his significant other, according to the actual point of view alone, yet the profound. for example it acquires unity and warmness all region of the couple’s life.

Leave me alone more scriptural around here. At the point when a heavenly messenger stayed with Mary the mother of Jesus and told her that she will imagine Chaturbate Profiles and bear a child. Hear what the holy book recorded. Then, at that point, Mary said unto the heavenly messenger, how might this is, seeing I know not a man? It ought to stun you here that the Ruler James Variant of the holy book utilized knows to mean sex around here. Know here means to have appropriate data about a man’s body due to your experience of him. It discusses your commonality about the working of a man’s body. Thusly, Mary is saying that she is shy of involvement with this area since she has not come to encounter any man through intercourse.


I had tea and lunch with one of best friends in Tadoku group. We haven't met these days, so we had lots of things to chat. We talked about children's education, how our parents are doing, what books we've read and so on. I talked about who and what I'm chatting on skype.
She often says that I have special power to get acquainted with someone who turned out to be an important person for my life by chance. It's like a magnet, she says.
For example, about two weeks ago, when I was taking a walk around my neighbors, I saw a man who I could tell with just one look that he was not a Japanese. He said KONNICHIWA when we passed and I knew from the way of his Japanese that he spoke English.
First I didn't say anything but bowed a little instead of saying hello. Several minutes later, I met him again on the street, so I said hello this time and had a small conversation with him even he's a total stranger to me. And this story didn't end here.
Several days after I met him first, I saw him again while I was riding on a bike and had a street- conversation. What a coincidence.
This meeting seems to be a tiny thing but it means a lot to me.
Because he just came to Japan when I met him, so his English was not influenced by Japanese.
Even though, I was able to say hello casually and talked without much difficulty.
This encounter gave me a motivation to keep studying English and blogging in English.


The relationship between Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, the two main players in building the Chicago Bulls dynasty in the NBA, is strangely twisted.

In case parents divorce, court of jurisdiction in charge of the divorce proceedings has to rule on the child custody arrangement. According to the common statutory provision, if the parents had children together while they were married, both of them have a joint guardianship over their children and their parental rights are equal. Contact your Everett divorce lawyer today.
When determining the legal home where the children are to be placed, the court always strives to reach a decision that is in the best interest of the children. This decision is arrived at by considering wishes of the parents, child’s relationship with each parent, siblings or any other person who may substantially impact the child’s interest, the child’s comfy in his or her home and school and both mental and physical health of his or her parents.
Types of child’s custody
The parent granted child custody control decision, pertains to child’s health care, up bring and education. The court has an option to choose one of the following types of child’s custody when ruling on family law child custody. Contact your local lawyer firm today to learn more.
This type of custody means that one parent has the right to have the child live physically with him or her. A joint physical custody may be granted if the child spends more time with both his or her parent, but this only works best when both parents live close to each other.
However, if the child lives with one of the parents and the other parent granted visitation, the parent living with the child has a sole physical custody of the child- custodial parent, while the other becomes non custodial parent.
This simply means to have the right and obligation to make regarding the child. A parent with legal custody makes decisions on child’s medical care, religious up bringing and schooling. Often, courts grant joint legal custody, where both parents make decision concerning their child together. If one violate the agreement and exclude the other parent from decision making, the one excluded can go back to court and ask for enforcement of the ruling.
If a parent believes that the situation between him or her and the other parent makes it almost impossible to have a joint custody, the parent has to convenience the court that it is not in the best interest of the child when joint custody is consider, therefore a sole custody will be considered.
Sole custody means that one parent either sole physical custody or sole legal custody of the child. The court will not hesitate to grant sole custody to one parent if the other parent is deemed unfit, for example charges of child abuse, over dependency on alcohol or drug abuse, or general child neglect.
Sole custody is very hard to be issued in family law child custody because many state courts encourage the role of both parents play in the upbringing of their child and may opt for a sole physical custody but still grant a joint legal custody. In this case, one parent is deemed as a physical caretaker of the child, but legal decisions on their child are still made jointly.


Growing up in a very loving household with my mum, dad, sister and Nan I only recently realised that we never really said ‘I Love You’ to each other. We all felt very loved and secure but looking back we never said the actual words ‘I Love You’ hardly ever.
It was when I had previously suffered a miscarriage and then went on to fall pregnant with my daughter and began to bleed at about 7 weeks; I called my mum at 5am beside myself. I was full of fear that I was miscarrying again and she did her best over the phone to calm me down and reassure me it would be ok. I think she also felt the same as me that it did not look good and it was likely I was going to have another miscarriage.
When we were ending the call she said something that she had never said to me in any other phone call that I can recall, ‘I Love You’. The words were so powerful and full of emotion it felt like a bolt out of the blue. Although my mum had made me feel more than loved throughout my whole life, to hear her actually say the words caught me off-guard.
I think in that moment of anxiety and desperation and virtual acceptance of what we felt was inevitable she had chosen those words to offer me extra comfort.
It was many months later and thankfully I had managed to hold on to my pregnancy, touch and go for about 16 weeks, that I remembered the words my mum had said. It seemed really strange to imagine my mum actually saying those words. My mum is by far the best mum in the world (obviously don’t we all think the same?) but we as children and as grown-ups had not used those words to each other much. It made me realise that because we just always knew we were loved deeply by the way we were treated we never felt the need to reassure each other and hear those words, we just knew regardless that we were loved.
When I married my husband, quite early on I realised that he needed to hear those words, and hear them often, it was not enough to know he was loved by the way I treated him he had to also hear the words a lot. Since being together I feel that I have shown him by my actions that saying the words ‘I Love You’ don’t count for much if you don’t show it in an unselfish way in your relationships with your loved ones that surround you.
Unfortunately, his childhood had been much more volatile and I understood that he needed the security of those words being spoken in a way that I didn’t. Don’t get me wrong I won’t just say it for the sake of it but I will make a point, now and again, to say ‘I Love You’ to him without him having to say it first or prompt me.
Growing up did you often say ‘I Love You’ to your family? Have you told your loved ones recently how much they are loved or shown them how you feel?

I love my family. They are complicated and unique, and just like every family have their mountains and their valley's but at the end of the day, they are family. In addition to my family, I have my "friend family". These are people that support me and love me like family, and whom I try to support and love like family. Most of our biological family live out of state, so our friend family is so important to us. Do you have friends that are like family to you?


I had such a great first day in California. One of my highlights happened before I even stepped on the plane. Seeing couples like this at the airport is one of my favorite images for my heart to capture. I just wanted to share it with all of you. I think we keep forgetting how rare and beautiful it is to have so much love for someone who returns that same rare affection. I cherish those who cherish that gift. I cherish these moments even when they aren’t mine, because they remind me love is always out there.


“Sis” needed me tonight. Apparently, she’s been struggling with her anxiety this week. She’s not sure what exactly has sparked it. She asked me to pick up my goddaughter from preschool as she struggled to function today. She even turned down meeting “Big Brother” on his lunch break today…which she never does unless she’s sick or stuck somewhere.
We met up later for dinner and she just let it all out to me. I simply let her talk and said words of understanding and encouragement. She’s concerned a couple of her medicines are causing it. She even went as far as taking a couple of pregnancy tests as she is feeling like she did when she was pregnant with my goddaughter. Each came up negative. I told her she may want to check with her OB on her concerns and maybe do a blood test as the other may be registering a false negative. She hadn’t considered that possibility and agreed it may be a good idea to do that.
I could see just talking with me and me being there for her put her at ease from when we met at the restaurant. I’m on this journey to figure things out on who I am and what makes me happy and being there for my family and friends is a part of who I am. Especially when they’re going through something like this. I consider myself fortunate that I really don’t struggle with anxiety and depression and I hate it when those most important to me go through it. I always tell them I’m here if they need anything.
When we got ready to part ways for the night, “Sis” said she was so grateful for everything. I simply smiled and said always. I’m glad I could be there for her when she needed someone. I know she and “Big Brother” would do the same for me.


Infertility issues are very common among men and women during the reproductive age. The struggle of infertility is real and at times it can affect the relationship negatively. Both men and women have different ways to show their emotions. This guide will help you understand in a better way the effect of infertility on the relationship.
Infertility effect on the relationship
Most people experience struggle in the same manner. Women are known to be emotional caretakers or providers of the relationship. Women tend to feel that if something bad happens then it is due to her and this makes her feel out of control.
In the same way, when a woman gets to know about infertility they take all the responsibility for this condition.
At such times, their partner needs to accompany her to appointments but most couples get concerned about the cost and time. No doubt, it is relevant and important. The men are known to be financial providers in the relationship and they are responsible to protect their families. They are trained to be instructional and need to make the decisions keeping the emotions aside.
Luckily, consulting our IVF doctor you can get to know what you need to do. The infertility treatment will help to improve your chances of conception. If you are struggling through this condition, then visit our IVF centre for a better treatment plan.
How does infertility impact women?
The women take the responsibility of infertility which results in different emotions like fear, anger, or pain. Also, it can make her feel anxious or depressed. The feeling affects her in such a way that she does not understand how to ask for help, especially from her partner as she wants to protect him from this situation. She fears that she would make him feel disappointed. On the other hand, men, feel that they are helpless and cannot help her to make everything better
This is the time when the couple feels like they have failed in such an important phase of their life. Many couples feel hesitant to talk about this condition and they do not even agree this condition is affecting their relationship.
Consulting the doctor
You need to consult the fertility doctor and she can guide you in which treatment plan will suit your condition the best. You should ask the doctor:
- How can I support my partner?
- What do I need to get for my partner?
Tips to help your partner during infertility
- Communicate with your partner.
- Keep in mind there is nothing wrong or right. Once you identify your partner’s feelings and what they want, you can help them in a better manner.
- Ask your partner what he or she wants.
- Share about the treatment process and how you are feeling.


"As two people newly in love, we talked and talked," Molly Pascal, writes in The New York Times Sunday Style Section, but in reflecting on her marriage, she shares how she and her husband had to learn how to "talk again" and in so doing "fell in love again."
“Seven years into it, our marriage was different. After the machinations of getting the children to sleep, we would sit side by side in bed with computers on our laps, surfing the internet. We were not talking, not sleeping, so close and yet so far apart. This dynamic — of being physically together but emotionally disengaged — had also bled into the mundane of the everyday, with too much silence and space between us on the couch and with us cooking on opposite sides of the kitchen island.”
“Couples spend so much time together throughout a life. We human beings live a lot longer than we used to. Some of us stay married to the same person for 50 or 60 years. It’s no wonder we run out of things to talk about. It’s no surprise that we join the ranks of the dining dead. But it doesn’t have to be that way.”

It’s Time To Find Connection Again
The constant fighting, blaming and disagreements pull you apart. The distance can no longer be ignored. At it’s best, a loving relationship can be a source of comfort and fulfilment. It can help us feel supported and like we matter. But when arguments and resentment get in the way, it can feel even lonelier than if you were apart. Things are spinning out of control and the teamwok is nowhere to be found.
Loneliness and disappointment, when all you want is to feel connected and happy. Even if you are both want the same thing, it is not easy how to bring this about. Work, children and other relationships can get in the way of the closeness and intimacy you once enjoyed.
It is painful to see the gap between you widening, and it is painful to not know how to make it better. Couples can get sept under negative cycles that wreak havoc in their relationships, leading to more pain.
A Licensed and qualified therapist has the ability to assist couples to discover the underlying causes that lie beneath the surface of disagreements. Often uncovering the emotions, fears and triggers that can get in the way of fulfilling relationships .
Research is now substantiating the importance of healthy relationships, how they can affect our mental health, physical health and outlook on life. It is normal for many coupes to hit roadblocks along the way.
Questioning support can be difficult , but it can also have lifelong advantages , not just for you and your partner, but for those whom you are close to.
I work with couples and families in an harmonious and profound way assisting them to re build their connections, rewire, and begin to explore the reasons behind disconnection, anger and loss. Offering a gentle, compassionate, and calm approach, along with good humour and a gentle, supportive, and respectful manner, mindful of the need to assist couples to understand themselves better in the context of their relationships and begin to view other perspectives.
As a clinical member of the International and National licensed registering bodies for Psychotherapists, Australian Relationship Counsellors and Family Therapists; Kristina has undertaken extensive clinical supervision, experience and training enabling her to become accredited in this field.

“My husband and I began couples therapy with Kristina. She was gentle, passionate I we both felt extremely safe in her presence. At the beginning my husband and I were not communicating well, we were fighting, staying in separate rooms and struggling to communicate. Often as Kristina explains – ‘Flipping our lid’. Kristina explored our attachment histories and our inter-generational values and beliefs, providing strategies to communicate with each other. My husband and I are forever grateful for the assistance she has provided us. We have developed empathy for each other, and learnt not to take those comments personally. Understanding now, that conflict is healthy in a relationship, its how you fight that makes the difference.”

It Doesn’t Have to Be Like This Forever
A therapist can help to find the real issues that lie beneath the surface of disagreements. These can be hard to spot when you are in the relationship, when you emotions and fears get in the way of seeing things from an outsider’s perspective. In couple’s therapy, we can explore the emotions that lie beneath the actions and discover what is driving the negative patterns in your relationship. This understanding can change the ways you interact with each other, opening the door to more positive ways of relating to one another. Couples that learn to stop these negative cycles when they arise and share their feelings end up experiencing more satisfaction and intimacy in their relationships.
In our sessions, we will focus on the specific issues that bring you to therapy. We will collaborate from a place of mutual trust to find the underlying probelm beneath this issue and find the best way to approach it.
“We searched for a couple’s counsellor for a few months. After attending to couples sessions with other therapists, we finally found Kristina upon recommendation from another therapist. We immediately felt comfortable with Kristina. She provided a warm and comfortable environment. Helping us to understand each other and understand each other’s perspective, providing us with tools and learning not to take things to heart.”

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on patterns of thinking, with decreased attention on patterns of behavior and emotional components of relationships. Researchers have given an enormous amount of attention to CBT and its application to a variety of individual mental health concerns, but they also have appropriated it for working with couples and families. Many systems purists argue that CBT is an individual-oriented theory that lacks systemic concepts necessary to conceptualize family or couple issues. In the end, you will have to make the decision as a couples and family helping professional as to whether CBT can address the relational demands of practitioner work with couples and families.
Choose one media resource from this week’s resources to review. As you begin to formulate a theory-based treatment plan, consider how you would maintain focus on the cognitive-behavioral realm of the couples and/or families, yet attend to the emotional dynamics present in the video.
The Assignment (2–3 pages)
Based on the theory demonstrated in the video you chose (CBT with either a couple or family):
- Define the problem.
- Formulate a theory-based treatment plan including short- and long-term goals for the couples and/or families.
- Describe two theory-based interventions you would use and justify your selection.
- Explain one anticipated outcome of each.

To the parents of Uvalde, I hurt with you.
Like you, I was not with my child when she died.
Like you, I didn't get to say goodbye.
Like you, I know the pain of losing your child suddenly and tragically.
Like you, I couldn't breathe.
Like you, I screamed.
Like you, my world fell apart.
Like you, I had to get up the next day when I didn't want to.
Like you, I woke up thinking I needed to get her ready for the day, only to have the world crash down on me again when I realized she was not here anymore.
To the parents of Uvalde, I stand with you.
I cry with you.
I hear you.
I sit in the pain with you.
I am angry like you.
I am broken like you.
To the parents of Uvalde, none of this is okay.

I believe in god but not in religion.
My ideal boy
Everyone knows that im going through the hardest thing that ive ever had to deal with in my entire life atm. I just broke up with someone who im still really in love with. But im trying to move on and i know there are other men out there for me and they will come when the time is right. But, my dream, most perfect, amazing man would be…………….. Someone with Dreds, who is tan, who has blue eyes that are almost teal, has a british accent, who has an amazing voice that can sing me to sleep, who is positive, carefree, loving, caring, nonjudgmental, doesn’t do drugs, wants to live on the beach with me, loves to meditate, do yoga, believes in most of the same beliefs as I, but also has his own input and opinions and who doesn’t agree with everything that i say just to keep me quite, someone who isnt afraid to dance, loves house and reggae music, who isnt afraid to look ridiculous and act silly with me, who will always try to help me become a better person, who loves my flaws, who tells me im beautiful and not just sexy or hott, and someone who i can just spend the rest of my life with and be happy with no matter what kind of situation we are in. That would be perfect(:


Imagine my surprise when one of my very best friends for over 15 years messaged me on facebook asking me what I was doing on a particular Saturday. Luckily I was doing nothing, because he was getting married, and he asked me to be there to document it. Its been a pleasure hearing all about his new bride over the past months, whom I just met for the first time that day. Trevor, you are lucky to have found someone as sweet and sassy as Mickey; Mickey, you have an amazing husband and friend in Trevor. This was a very intimate wedding, just the couple, the pastor and Trevor’s parents and sisters and brother in laws. How amazingly sweet to be a part of something so special. Thank you both for allowing me to be part of the day.

An interactive timeline showing when each plant in the Arboretum was acquired, with several other metadata. Also search by Genus, Family, and Country of Origin
This project uses data collected from color sensors to visually display conditions across the Arnold Arboretum. The Arboretum is split into four zones. Each zone displays the colors of the sky, ground and surrounding trees.
This project uses scatterplot graphs to show the relationship between the date a plant was acquired and its size.
This project uses a bubble chart to show the relationship between the number of trees in each family of trees and the date that the first tree of that family was acquired.
