what is love?

It is one of the most difficult questions for the mankind. Centuries have passed by, relationships have bloomed and so has love. But no one can give the proper definition of love. To some “Love is friendship set on fire” for others “Maybe love is like luck. You have to go all the way to find it”. No matter how you define it or feel it, love is the eternal truth in the history of mankind.
Love is patient, love is kind. It has no envy, nor it boasts itself and it is never proud. It rejoices over the evil and is the truth seeker.
Love protects; preserves and hopes for the positive aspect of life. Always stand steadfast in love, not fall into it. It is like the dream of your matter of affection coming true. Love can occur between two or more individuals. It bonds them and connects them in a unified link of trust, intimacy and interdependence. It enhances the relationship and comforts the soul. Love should be experienced and not just felt. The depth of love can not be measured. Look at the relationship between a mother and a child. The mother loves the child unconditionally and it can not be measured at all.
A different dimension can be attained between any relationships with the magic of love. Love can be created. You just need to focus on the goodness of the other person. If this can be done easily, then you can also love easily. And remember we all have some positive aspect in us, no matter how bad our deeds maybe. And as God said “Love all”
Depending on context, love can be of different varieties. Romantic love is a deep, intense and unending. It shared on a very intimate and interpersonal and sexual relationship. The term Platonic love, familial love and religious love are also matter of great affection. It is more of desire, preference and feelings. The meaning of love will change with each different relationship and depends more on its concept of depth, versatility, and complexity. But at times the very existence of love is questioned. Some say it is false and meaningless. It says that it never exist, because there has been many instances of hatred and brutality in relationships. The history of our world has witnessed many such events. There has been hatred between brothers, parents and children, sibling rivalry and spouses have failed each other. Friends have betrayed each other; the son has killed his parents for the throne, the count is endless. Even the modern generation is also facing with such dilemmas everyday. But “love” is not responsible for that. It is us, the people, who have forgotten the meaning of love and have undertaken such gruesome apathy.
In the past religion have done many speculations on the phenomenon of love. But love has always ruled, in music, poetry, and paintings. Religion has also done lot of dissection to the essence of love, just like what biology, has also done to it.
Psychology portrays love as a cognitive phenomenon with a social cause. It is said to have three components in the book of psychology: Intimacy, Commitment, and Passion. Also, in an ancient proverb love is defined as a high form of tolerance. And this view has been accepted and advocated by both philosophers and scholars.
Love also includes compatibility. But it is more journeys to the unknown when the concept of compatibility comes into picture. Maybe the person whom we see in front of us, may be least compatible than the person who is miles away. We might talk to each other and portray that we love each other, but practically we do not end up into any relationship.
Also in compatibility, the key is to think about the long term successful relationship, not a short journey. We need to understand each other and must always remember that no body is perfect.
Be together, share your joy and sorrow, understand each other, provide space to each other, but always be there for each others need. And surely love will blossom to strengthen your relationship with your matter of affection.

television habit

Television habit

Television can cause you a lot, Any time we spend our time doing something (or nothing) there is an opportunity cost. As ZUNDGOLFE demonstrates, it is not difficult to think of places we spend our time where we could be making money instead. As IMLISSY points out, there is value in these actions and to consider the opportunity cost without also consider the value of these actions is pointless, at best. The math is a bit fishy, too. It assumes you watch commercials. It adds in gaming, which is a separate thing altogether. It absurdly uses the full minimum wage as the opportunity cost, which requires the unrealistic assumption that you can work basically non-stop. It doesn't give any points for thriftiness (my entertainment center cost me a lot.
But worst of all, it doesn't consider the costs of working rather than watching TV. You'll have more stress especially since you're not watching TV to relax! meaning greater medical bills. You'll probably have to wand with your problems that surround your daily life which will probably cost you money somehow or some ways.
The funny part is when it is all said and done you sit thinking about the time you wasted watching movies other than doing some important. Television is good I suppose but not as good as you will think all of the time. Even though it helps get your mind of things at time, it also helps destroy you by keeping you in bed or on the carts all day. Now in this ways you are wasting time, on unnecessary things.
Television also has it possible side also. It helps you know and understand things that happen in the world and also in the country we live in. for example the are some educative programs that most parents will like for their children to watch, some of these programs may be to catch the predictor on NBC with Chris Hanson, I am one of those people who watch that program on a regular basics. I some times forget that I have to study when that program is on, all I do is pop some corn, get a glass of juice and have fun watching television. what a bad habit to develop as a young lady. Another television station that has serious impact on me is the life time movies network.” life time network has a lot of beautiful movies, that is educating and helps woman to be very careful in making certain decisions and choices in their daily activities and life. It also relaxes your mind after a hard day of work and helps your get some bed rest with ease. Life time is the watch most of the times by ladies, it is the choice of most ladies.

NETWORKING

Net work is an interesting movie; it was made 30 years ago and perfectly describes the situations and issued surrounding the televisions, news, and media today. I felt bad over the fact and idea that Howard had die,due to the fact that he could not performed his madness correctly to keep U.B.S station in the money making business. In this movie Howard is describe as the mad prophet of the air ways, even though he’s describes as the mad prophet, I describe him as a mad dog of the of the airways in this movie, because he did perform some of the mad things by making television viewers to put their heads out the window and shout I’ am not going to take this anymore!!!!!!! .another mad ass thing he did was to go on national television and say he was going to kill his self because he could not live with out broadcasting. I also think he treated his self like a bitch; if he had listened to his friend (Max) earlier he would not find his self in such situation. All Howard wanted was to be seen on national television, and also continue be part of networking business, he did not understand he was sick, old, and needed medical attention. He allow Diana to used him as a bitch and obtain her goals. All Diana thought of was being at the top of the networking business, she was not capable enough to create a simple intimacy between she and her partner, she was one of those ladies who make love like a chicken and climax like a duck, what a bitch and the half she is. Even though she was a bitch, Max still love her and decided leave his family and be with her, so bad he had to leave his family for such a pushing bitch, he did realize her disgusting attitude and decided to go home and be with his depressed red headed wife .that was so nice of him, what a nice way of saying good bye to nonsense life. I think I like that one, that was cool though.

My favorite movies channel is the life time movies net work


The life time movies channel is an American television devoted to movies, sitcoms and drama. All of which are either geared toward women or feature women in lead roles. The network is owned by The Walt Disney Company and Hearst Corporation.

Lifetime was established as the result of a merger of Hearst's Daytime network, established in March 1982 as a four hour per day service with women's programming and Viacom's Cable Health Network, established in June 1982 as a 24-hour service that carried health and wellness programming.

I personally felt in love with the life time movies network when I saw this one movie “when Andrew came home,” this is all about separated parents and their kids how the kids do respond to the separation of their parents.
In this movie Andrew mom and dad separated and his mom felt in love with some guy when he was a kid. His dad normally picks him up during the week-ends to spend some time with him. But as days went by, Andrew dad thought of a new idea, the idea was to take Andrew away from his mom and run away with him to another country. His planed did work out, he ran away with Andrew when he pick him up on that week end and ran away with him. He took little Andrew and did not sent him to school, all he did was to beat on him, and sexually abuse him all the days of his life. As he grew up, all he knew was to be somber kid and never had a mind as kids because of what he went through with his dad. After some years of ill-treatment with his dad, his dad decided to call his mom on an unknown and ask her to pick her son up from the bus station. When she got at the station she never made Andrew up because of his bad looks she sobs bitterly and took him for medical attention.
When Andrew got home he was down hearted, and blame his mom for what ever occurrences in his life, he said his mom could have went the extra miles to find him other than letting him go through what he went through with his dad. His moms plead with him and ask him to forgive her. When I saw this movie, I felt so hurt and sorry that tears ran off my eyes. It is because of this movie that I find comfort in life time movies network. Life time network serve as a guide and adviser for because most of the movies show on life time network help ladies to be smart in what ever decision they are take or planning on taking. This network also helps release me from stress and tension in my daily activity and helps me to relax well.
The best time I find pleasure watching this station is at night, when I am done with my school work and need my mind to relaxed or get my self from thinking on unnecessary things .
life time network is always about situations that woman goes through with man ,it helps you be very careful with man and how to deal with situation that come your ways and try to break you down.

Topic: Relationship between parents, kids, and caregiver.


Relationship is a connection between two or more people or things. It is also the state of being related to something else. In developing an idea of a valuable caring relationship between children, parents, and caregivers we need to distinguish
Each other as a particular not interchangeable person and it requires reciprocity. This does not mean that children need to be able to articulate their interests, or that they need to be self-reflectively aware of their parents' interests or personhood. Instead, parents and children manifest their understanding of one another as unique, irreplaceable individuals, with identifiable needs and interests through their interactions with one another.
In developing an account of valuable caring relationships between children and parents in this essay, I thought of ideas of care or love broadly conceived .thinking about care or love in friendship. I do not focus only on what children need and their parents should give. Instead, I aim to understand what makes relationships between children and parents ethically valuable. Suggests that care ethics might be thought or add to the moral terrain by "treating relationships as having normative content.
To give an account of caring relationships between children and their caregivers, we need to distinguish among caring about, taking care of, care giving, care receiving, and being in a caring relationship. We can care about people, ideas, and things, without assuming responsibility for them, entering into a relationship with them, or providing care for them although we may doubt the legitimacy of the caring if opportunities to do these things consistently arise without being acted upon. Both taking care of and caring for assume some responsibility for the parental care.
I have distinguished between taking care of and care giving in that taking care of "involves assuming responsibility for what you care about but may involve delegating the tasks involved in care giving to another." Care giving is more personal than taking care of someone need be. In doing it, "the caregiver must be ready to revise her care giving strategy according to moment-by-moment or day-by-day conditions". We frequently conceive of care giving as involving physical care, but it could be direct and intimate without primarily meeting the cared for children's basic physical needs.
A caring relationship requires both parties to be aware of each other as a particular not interchangeable person, to be aware of being in relation, and it requires some reciprocity. In another scene, a caring attitude focuses on attitudes rather than relationships requires empathy, and "involves respect for the wishes of or for what is distinctive about the other". Caring relationships require that time and attention, are devoted to establishing intimacy, for without those we will not know what is distinctive about the other.
Since the requirements of a caring relationship go beyond the fact that care has been given, we may take care of somebody by assuming the responsibility of ensuring that someone is found to meet their needs, provide direct care for children, or acknowledge care received, all without being in a caring relationship.
In summary, a caring relationship requires that both parties are aware of one another as particular individuals, that some time is spent together in order to develop that awareness and that each person is willing to be vulnerable enough to disclose their particular characteristics to the other. Caring relationships also involve some reciprocity. Does this mean they can only occur between people who are equals and equally devoted to meeting one another's needs? This means that both argue in favor of recognizing that reciprocity need not be symmetrical or between equals. A young person, who does not understand and discuss the content of having children should not get involve with having children because it requires mutual respect and mutual recognition, and that each party must "acknowledge that the others are ends in themselves and not means only". Considers ultimately rejects the suggestion that "each partner must pay attention to each other, and to the child or children needs” Because young children are limited in their ability to discuss needs and ideas in ways that agree. Children and their parents need to be aware of one another's interests, but this does not mean that children need to be able to articulate their needs. To conclude children are very precious to us, we need to give them all necessary attentions and satifitions.

Routine, expectation and adventure


This year offers an extra 24 hours on Sundays, and a chance to enjoy the extra time I've occasionally whined for. Now the question is, "how wisely will I spend it?"
Unfortunately by now, most of us have booked Sunday on the calendar like any other Sunday with activities. These may be organized by cleaning up, going to church, shopping, wishing some sport channel and reading to get prepare for classes on Monday.
If you're kid-less, you are you are right on track like me, because your routine probably be set as you expect it to be. the one above, substituting "kids" and "sports" with the words "work" and "more work makes your days long with out a set or basic routine.
Sunday is the only day I have to catch up on clutter and chaos, I have planned my day around organizing dust animals, paying bills or trying to find the best I can do things like assignments, read and get ready for classes on Monday. Before I realize how late it is, it will be time to fix dinner, eat, clean dishes and get ready to begin another day.
Do any of these scenarios sound familiar? If not, you are finished with this column and you may move on to the comics or sports pages because you are a well-balanced individual who sees no point to what I'm saying. In fact, I'm probably gracing the bottom of your birdcage already.
However, if you are thinking: "Yes. I know. You are so right. Wow! you have read my mind. I can't believe you doesn't have me an own talk show," then please continue.
There's no intended preaching here, rather a subtle wake-up call suggesting you might grasp the 24 extra hours this year and turn it into something special rather than clubbing and drinking. It's kind of changing.

Remember your expectation is confident belief or strong hopes that are particular events of life. Many of us students today have a high expectation of doing well in all of our classes. Our family members, friends, and parents also depend on us to make them pride in days and years to come. Even though life is full of temptations, and surprises, we have to living up to certain stander and expectation to deal with life. Some of the standard that are needed by me on a day to day basic are going to my classes on time, reading my notes, and making grades that are required by my institution, and also help keep up my financial Aid until I earn my degrees. The greatest expectation in life is successes.
When you have been successful in life through your hard work; you can go on adventured in so many countries to explore the goodies of life. Life becomes fun for you that ways, because you don’t have too many stresses on your mind, as it have being with you in college or high school. You are visiting other countries, learning lot of cultures and experiencing a new style of life. Adventures are great because out there, you get to know a lot of people and developed a sense of how other countries looks. Fun, fun, adventure is fun and experience.

Names
Names come in so many ways; some parents name their kids after some good family friends, or give them names of their later mother or later father. For me I got my name Juah from my later grand mother, she did name me after her mother, and my dad name my sweetie. My dads name me sweetie because he said I am the sweetest child he ever had.
I love the name sweetie and decided to use it for school, but as I grew bigger, my friends took it out content and had a lot of different ways of calling me, and also had a lot of interoperations to my name. this had me discourage to the extend that I decided, to change my school name by using Sweetie as my middle name, and used Juah as my first name.

Some parents give names to their kids, by combining both parents’ names, I also think that is a good idea. I have this friend who got her name from her both parents, her name is Oralee. Her mom name is Ora, and her dad name is Lee. They combine their names and named her after them. What a wonderful ways to give names to kids.

Some people think their names are not pleasant for the ears, and decide to change it, or add more beauties to their names. This happens in the African setting most of the time. I am saying this, because some Africans names are very hard to pronounce and most of the African kids change their names when they leave Africa and travel to the western world. For example if your parents named you Oweniyou, entering the western world, you feel that Oweniyou is so long and hard to pronounce, you will think of something shorter that sounds like your name, and add more beauties to it by saying my name is Owen. Well people will prefer Owen to Oweniyou in the western world, because that’s the shortest ways to you long name and it sounds more pleasant to the ears ,this is some of the reasons people change their names.

Most of the times people have issue with others names; they always said they hate the name. Like the name Maverick, a lot of people dislike this name; they feel that this name is sucks. Some say the name Maverick makes them feel like a movies top gum, other feel the name sound very stupid, and should be use only as a first name and not last name. But I personally feel that every name have a meaning and the name Maverick is a nice name. For me I feel names are names, and the best names to give kids are biblical names, because I feel names also have impact on kids, it is good to bring kids up in a God fearing ways, and the name given to them should also have impact in their lives by helping them behaved like the person they were name after in the bible.

walking life

Walking life

Dreaming is defined as the subjective experience of imaginary images, sounds, voices, thoughts or sensations during sleep. Dreams represent a world of imagery in which our darkest fears, deepest secrets, and most passionate fantasies break out from the unconscious mind and only at this time become present to our own consciousness. There are several key questions that need to be addressed; for instance, "Why do we dream? What do dreams mean? And, where do dreams come from?" The answers to these questions are not that simple.Dreaming usually occurs in the movement of eye during sleep, in which brain activity is high and signaled by rapid horizontal movements of the eyes. Sometimes dreams occur during the other stages of sleep; however, these are much less memorable and less clear. They can sometimes last for a few seconds, or as long as twenty minutes. Dreams are a symbol and link to the inner core of the human subconscious. They can vary from normal and mundane, to surreal and bizarre. Dreams can often times bring creative thought, or provoke a sense of thing that might happen to you. dream is not destiny,dreams are just thoughts that comes to the mind.it is not true.

I personally agreed with density been truth because it is something that is destine by God ,that will happen to you in the future, or that has happen to you before. Destiny is like keeping a unique place ever in life. It is a powerful belief which can never be giving away so easily. When you are destine to do a particular job, no matter how long, or how many years go by, you will do that job.
In order for humans to fulfilled God ordained destiny on earth, you need to be courageous, have the ability, passion, strength, and weakness. Having courage you should always encourage your self by saying I can what ever is right for me to do.
Do learn to be a weakness ahead of you, always put you energy and the ability to work and put weakness away. Learn to be positive in what ever goals you decide to reach .with these things at the back of your mind, and by the help of God your destiny will come true. It is good to fellow your destiny order than dreaming about things that will not come to pass.
