Let us stop for a moment and look at oulselves in another way. From time to time it seems that despite of all our efforts, we experience various negative emotions in our lives, such as despair, anxiety, fear, apathy, mistrust or anger. When we have troubled relationships with our family members or collegues at work. When our destiny leads us into some difficult situations in business or we have problems with health. Or we just feel tired of our daily routine... Sometimes all of us might feel lost in this life, when we need support and encouragement as well as wise words, that may help to look at the situation from another point of view. Maybe it would be a spiritual conversation with a person, that you feel trust and respect for. Or reading of the Bible, or other spiritual literature. Or you can spent some quiet moments in the forest, by the lake, or other place in nature, trying to listen to the voice of your heart, as when you learn to listen, it might tell you much more then you could expected. In this page we offer you to have a look at inspirational stories. Sometimes they encourage us to seek for our dreams, trust life and ourselves and never give up. They teach us to notice the magical beauty of the world that we live in and that surround you every day, as well as they show, what are the true values that are worth aiming for in our lives. Also they tell about God‘s caring and the power of unconditional love. We get inspired by the strength of the human spirit and we learn, how to be a better person, more sensitive, supportive, kind and loving. After all, inspirational stories help us to feel harmony with the world that is around us and find true happiness inside ourselves. You say oh you are in your 30's, age is no longer on your side, you say the society will say this and that just because you are not married at that age, then a man shows up, within you, you know he's bad but because it always seem you chase them off then you say to yourself let me manage this man, he's bad like every other one in the past, oh for how long am I gonna stay single, then you agree to marry him saying half bread is better than none.. My sister must you eat half bread when you can eat a full bowl of eba.. Don't marry a bad man because age is no longer on your side or because the society will question your being single, if your marriage collapses the same society will mock you!! ***Please Choose Wisely**** |

Are your legs tired? (girl: Why?) Because you have been running through my mind all day! 4."I lost my phone number, can I borrow yours?" 5. Can you give me directions to your heart? I've seemed to have lost myself in your eyes. 6. (Take a look at the tag on the girls shirt, jacket, etc.) She would say,"What are you doing" respond,"Oh, just checking to see if you were made in Heaven." 7. (Pick up a flower and walk over to girl.) "I was just showing this flower how beautiful you are." 8. Is it hot in here or is it just you? 9. Walk up to a gal and say:"Are you from Greece?" "No" She answers. "Oh, I thought all the Women goddess were from Greece" 10. Do you believe in love at first sight, or do I have to walk by you again??

Princecalm:Thanks for your support fella. |
Let us begin by thinking about the various kinds of insult that we receive here in NL and those we recieve out there. First, there are, of course, verbal insults, which can be either direct or, more commonly, indirect. Examples of indirect verbal insults are jokes and ironic comments, backhanded compliments, mimicry, and false fascination. As our eyes and facial expressions can substitute for speech, such things as a cold or constant stare, a false or exaggerated smile, or a raised eyebrow can also count as an indirect verbal insult. Then there are much more obviously physical insults such as punching, slapping, or spitting. All of the above involve actively doing something and therefore count as insults of commission. But insults of omission are equally if not more common. Examples of insults of omission are not inviting or including someone, not deferring to his rank, not laughing at his jokes, and studiously avoiding eye contact with him. So, what is the best way to deal with any or all of these insults? 1. Anger. This is the weakest possible response, and this for three main reasons. First, it shows that we take the insult, and therefore the insulter, seriously. Second, it suggests that there is truth in the insult. And third, it destabilizes us and causes us pain. 2. Acceptance. This may seem like a very weak response, but in many cases it is actually the strongest response of all. When someone insults us, we ought to consider three things: whether the insult is true, who it came from, and why. If the insult is true, the person it came from is reasonable, and his motive is worthy, then the insult is not an insult but a statement of fact and, moreover, one that is potentially very helpful to us. Thus it is usually the case that we do not or ought not take offense at our teacher, parent, or best friend. In general, if I respect the person who insulted me, I ought to give thought to the insult and learn as much as I can from it. On the other hand, if I think that the person who insulted me is not worthy of my consideration, I have no reason to take offense at him, just as I have no reason to take offense at a naughty child or a barking dog. Notice that, whatever the case, I have no reason to take offense. 3. Returning the insult. There are several problems with the put-down, even if it is a very clever one. First, it does have to be clever, and, second, it has to occur to us at just the right moment. But even if we are as sharp and witty as Oscar Wilde, a clever put- down is unlikely to constitute our best defence. You see, the problem with the clever put-down is that, however clever it is, it tends to equalize us with our insulter, raising him up to our level and bringing us down to his. This gives him, and therefore his insult, far too much credibility. In fact, the clever put-down should only be used amongst friends, and only to add to the merriment of the occasion. And it should end with something like a toast or a rub on the shoulder. In short, it should only be used for the purpose of humor. 4. Humor. Humor is an especially effective response for three reasons: it undermines the insult, it brings the audience (if any) on side, and it diffuses the tension of the situation. Here is an example of the effective use of humor. Cato the Younger, the Roman statesman and stoic philosopher, was pleading a case when his adversary Lentulus spat in his face. After wiping off the spittle, Cato said, “I will swear to anyone, Lentulus, that people are wrong to say that you cannot use your mouth.” Sometimes, it might even be appropriate to exaggerate or add to the insult so as to make a mockery of the insulter and, by extension, of the insult. "Ah, if only you had known me better, you would have found greater fault still!" 5. Ignoring the insult. One downside of humor is that it requires quick thinking. In contrast, ignoring the insult is easier and, in fact, more powerful. One day, a boor struck Cato whilst he was out at the public baths. When the boor realized that it was Cato whom he had struck, he came to offer his apology. Instead of getting angry or accepting the apology, Cato replied, “I don’t remember being struck.” Subtext of his reply: “You are so insignificant that I don’t even care to register your apology, let alone to take offense at your insult.” In conclusion, we need never take offense at an insult. Offense exists not in the insult but in our reaction to it, and our reactions are completely within our control. It is unreasonable to expect a boor to be anything but a boor; if we take offense at his bad behaviour, we have only ourselves to blame.
