  To love your community and have a sense of fellowship with all of mankind is love manifested into action. To care for those in need and show support for those who need a helping hand emotionally, physically and even financially is a responsibility that all of the human race should take on. From children up to the elderly there are allot of people who are facing trials within their life that tend to be a bit more than they alone can face. Just a few minutes here and there helping someone out can make a big and lasting difference. I believe we all are one big family called the human race and we should take care of one  another just like a family would and should. If you have the love and compassion within you to help your brothers and sisters then go volunteer at hospitals, retirement homes, churches, soup kitchen and etc. or be creative and find your own path in helping out others. Almost every major religion supports charity and community, This is what i think the religious leaders should be focusing on for that is the way mankind should be.

Well Work Calls, So enough rambling for now

   Being torn between science, religion and faith is the torment of the modern man. Science though sometimes factual is usually conjecture or unproven theories. So many times has the facts of science been overturn, proven inaccurate or were just plain wrong.
Darwin’s theory of evolution has gaps and flawed facts and I do believe creatures evolve to some extent since there is proof out there living today, I don’t think man had came from apes. Yes Genetically we are cousins to the apes and that does not destroy my belief in Eden and the creation story.
   I don’t see why god wouldn’t create lower forms that are similar to man for us to study and learn from when science would appear. Also the Big Bang is another theory that does not conflict far as I am concerned with the biblical creation story. Now dinosaurs have been a thorn in Christians sides for a while but if one looks back across time there has been proof of dinosaurs existing during mankind’s existence though they were called Dragons and sea serpents.

Check out this video (playlist its a 6 part series) it will show you more on the dinosaur issue.

Well Enough Rambling for now.

All the hype and media that is out there trying to tell us the end is near is more of a distraction than a help. What if it is the end in December of 2012, We can not prevent what we truly have no control over. The End can come at any given date in the future, It all depends on the choices we make and how we take care of our home we call earth. The only other way the end will come besides by our own hands is by a random catastrophic event caused by nature or brought to us from the dangerous objects flying through space. Since we are not technologically advanced yet to alter the paths or comets, meteors and other space debris, we should focus on the things we can either change or prepare for.

  Most weather events we can prepare for and survive through except for the occasional massive and severe hurricanes, tornados, volcanic activity and earth quakes.  Global warming we can slow and possibly even reverse in time, but only if the whole world works towards that goal. I would not waste energy worrying over 2012, I would instead about the dangers we are certain exist and can be avoided if not overcame through the collective effort of all peoples of the earth.

  Maybe 2012 is the year we come together as a world, All governments working together with the common goal of world prosperity and peace. I do not want it to be a one world nation because absolute power would corrupt such a government. Though maybe a U.N. kind of thing but with each nation with equal voting power. Though I know the U.N. has many problems, but it is the closest thing we have to the nations of the world working together for the common good. Allot of work would be needed if the U.N. was the choice that is for sure.

2012 is probably nothing but another year ,But I Hope 2012 is a more of a beginning of a new era than the end of Mankind.
 
I guess only time will tell what 2012 will be

To enrich a relationship and keep it strong you must work at it. No relationship can fly on autopilot without crashing eventually. Several key components to a successful relationship are as follows

Communication : Communicate your feelings and just talk to each other not at each other.

Quality Time:   Spend time with your mate doing activities that you both enjoy

Self Time:  Just as you need quality time with your mate you both need time away from each other.

Acceptance:  You must accept your partners faults along with your own. (Nobody is Perfect)

Impulsiveness:  Be impulsive occasionally, surprise your mate in one way or another to keep things stirred up.

Sometimes there  will be times both you and your mate will have to do things that the other likes and you don’t. 
Just remember true love is unconditional and is giving of itself. You must understand that both you and your mate are two individuals with different backgrounds and different upbringing. No two people is completely alike and the difference between people is what makes each and every one of us interesting. Instead of wasting time wishing your mate would do one thing or another put that energy into enjoying the things your mate does that you enjoy.

Every person has good points and faults and only one who can correct those flaws is the person with them. You can not change anyone who isn’t willing to change. so instead of wasting time trying to change them, accept their flaws and improve yourself. If you both learn to accept one another for who you two really are you might be surprised how little the flaws in one another matters. And as we all know our time here on earth is a short amount of time, We can spend it enjoying the goodness in ourselves and those we care about or we can waste that time being judgmental and angry at the fact the world and the people in it are not perfect. 

There isn’t a perfect formula to having a perfect relationship only because there is no such thing as a perfect relationship. Remember that and then maybe you can help your relationship become a good one.

Imagination, a key to a happier and healthier mind and body. To allow your mind to wander and be creative during the day allows the brain to work out problems and to stimulate the chemicals that reduces stress and  it also relaxes the body. Seems as we get older our desire to imagination gets less either due to lack of time or to our illusion of it being immature and a waste of time. Just like dreaming at night it is a necessary part of life. Even simple fantasizing or day dreaming can relax you and help you to escape the stresses of modern life. From my own experience i have noticed a drop in blood pressure after day dreaming and imaginative Visualization. It lowered both Systolic and diolostic pressures by 4 points or better. It also helps me to become more peaceful when i find my self upset.

  So once or twice a week try to daydream or have a imaginative visualization and see how it helps you feel more relaxed. If that is all it will do for you that in itself is a good benefit for your body and mind.

The 3 F’s of life, Friendship, Fairness and most importantly faith. A real friend will be there to support you when times are tough. The same friend will be right beside you when times are grand. Friendship is a valuable tool in the wellbeing of your mental and emotional health. Fairness instills humility and a unselfish mentality. The virtues of being humble and selfless has been written about both in the religious papers and in philosophies from ancient times Faith is bringer of hope and  the sustainer of the weary. The 3’fs are just the basic tools one needs to make it through this world and through this life.

Without friendship one will be lonely. Without fairness there would be cruelty. and without faith there would be despair.  So the 3 F’s of life are needed in order to maintain happiness and instill humility.

 

Just something to think about is all….
