RomanceLiving With Hiv Since Birth – Wes Donaldson’s Story by Nprecious(op): 9:02am On Oct 03, 2018
IS IT POSSIBLE TO LIVE A NORMAL LIFE WITH HIV?

Short answer:

Yes, I basically forget I have it unless I’m chomping down on my meds, when I get a wound, or if I think about how I can’t join the military.

Otherwise my life is as normal as life is around where I’m from. I have a wife and son without them being infected because of modern medicine which is a huge medical blessing.

Long Answer with details of my life living with HIV:

I was born with HIV in 1988. My parents got it while doing drugs and because of the limited treatment back then they succomed to AIDs and died years after I was born.

My dad died when I was four years old and my mom when I was seven. My last memories of them are similar.

My dad rolled over in his death bed and said “I love you”. I remember I was visiting him.

My mom was in care and the last time I went to visit her she gave me a stuffed animal. She cried and said “I ruined it I’m so sorry”. It was all she had to give me and she said that because she dropped her cigarette on it and it burned a hole in it.

It hurt to see my mom hurting like that, and that stuffed animal I cherished for many many years. I grew up with my grandparents afterwards.

Doctors didn’t think I had a chance of living many years because treatment was limited. I even got to make a wish with the make a wish foundation and go fishing with Paul Newman at The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp!

But new medicines continued to come out that held AIDs at bay and kept the HIV virus from multiplying-as long as I took the medicine. If I missed a dose or two the risk of the HIV virus becoming resisitent to the medicine greatly increased.

I was told I had HIV when I was six years old. The first thing I thought was that I wouldn’t have a wife or kids. That thought however didn’t affect me too much. But slowly, throughout the years, mental effects of being born with HIV started to set in.

First, I was annoyed at having to take so many pills every night. Then, I started to like girls but I forced myself to never attach or pursue them because in my mind I wasn’t allowed and they’d reject me anyway. Without parents and with HIV I started to feel not normal and didn’t see where I fit in with anyone. With this secret I started feeling like a weird freak.

Then began the depression and hidden thoughts of suicide. I went through middle school and high school feeling more and more alone and misunderstood. It only got worse but I hid it well. I distracted myself by pursuing things that made me happy.

I dated a few girls I liked a few times but it only hurt to know/think I would just be immediately rejected by them once they knew. I pretty much was torturing myself as I believed I wasn’t ever meant to have someone that loved me back because of what I had. I couldn’t and wouldn’t live like a normal teenage boy because of being born with HIV, I couldn’t risk giving what I had to some girl I really liked. So, I focused on being around friends who I could live through their happiness and normal-ness. It was a blast.

But the depression and suicidal thoughts never went away. I had a huge void within. Once I discovered drugs it helped to fill the void temporarily. But only made life without being high much much worse (in my head).

The first time I really tried killing myself was after i told my first real ‘serious’ girlfriend what I had. Of course we had already been having mostly protected sex. It was a devastatingly HUGE mistake but thankfully she didn’t get what I had. And she and her parents where very supportive and open and understanding….I told her over the phone (like a coward) and she was very upset and hung up. I thought that was it and believed I had truly ruined the life of the girl I loved at the time. I couldn’t face my consequences so I took all my medicine at once and drank a lot of bleach. I threw up shortly afterwords and was sick all night. Needless to say I couldn’t smell bleach without gagging for over a year. Surprisingly We stayed together, she loved me back (something I thought was never in the cards) and she told me she was upset because she thought I was going to die.

Flash forward a couple years and she broke up with me over normal reasons. But at the time this really devasted me. I was in college and my emotions effected my grades and self worth. So began my second brilliant attempt at suicide.

Hereditary also plays a significant role in a person's life aside these horoscopical readings, which is why often times what they forecast do not entirely tally with how our lives eventually turn out.

BusinessWhatsapp's Co-founder Brian Acton Regrets Selling Whatsapp To Facebook by Nprecious(op): 9:07am On Sep 27, 2018
Facebook acquired messaging platform WhatsApp in 2014 for $16 billion. At the time the company’s co-founders Brian Acton and Jan Koum vowed that the merger would not compromise their vision for the company.

In 2016, they implemented end-to-end encryption into the app, and it quickly became a point of contention. Facebook wanted to be able to use the platform for targeted advertising and monetization of corporate analytics tools. Acton ended up walking away from $850 million in stock options over then matter, and Koum followed suit less than a year later.

In a recent interview with Forbes, Acton alluded that he feels some remorse for selling the company to the social media titan Facebook.

“At the end of the day, I sold my company,” he said. “I sold my users’ privacy to a larger benefit. I made a choice and a compromise. I live with that every day.”

According to Acton, Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg were the primary instigators in his departure. They pushed for the monetization efforts, and when Acton pushed back, the two just redoubled their efforts. Acton could tell that they were not going to back down, so he quit.

WebmastersLogo Design Mistakes by Nprecious(op): 7:50am On Sep 20, 2018
DROPLETS-https://dropletsweb.com/

Here are the common logo design mistakes to be avoided while designing a Logo

AVOID FOLLOWING TRENDS
Logo design trends such as swooshes, bevels or glows are temporary. Moreover, many designers have already followed them. Therefore, trends ultimately end up in being nothing more than cliché. So, avoid imitating old or frequently used designs. To avoid the trends, you should be aware of them.


KEEP AWAY FROM RASTER IMAGES
You should avoid using raster images to design your business logos. Raster images can cause issues with reproduction. Since raster images consist of pixels, they are prone to distortion when zoomed a little to bigger sizes. Surely, you would like your logo to look great in all sizes. Make sure that you understand difference between vector and rafter digital graphic files.


DO NOT USE STOCK ART
Another blatant mistake many designers make is use of stock images. You must keep at bay the temptation of incorporating stock art in logo. Often, small businesses resort to using such images for lack of adequate funds. But they forget the pitfalls of incorporating stock art in creation of logos. Since stock images have already been used in many designs, their use in your logo will compel people to take your business as substandard, non-serious and unprofessional. Besides, you may also face legal issues if you use stock images meant strictly for personal use and not for commercial purposes such as logos. Logos need to be original and unique, especially if they’re licensed to you. Stock vectors aren’t licensed to your company exclusively because they’re used by others across the globe. If your logo features a stock vector image or even part of one, you’re potentially liable for breaking the supplying website’s license agreement

DESIGN FOR YOU TARGET AUDIENCE
Chief aim of a logo is to communicate a message to target audience. But if a logo design aims more at pleasing a client or designer himself rather than potential customers of client’s business, such logo design fails to make an impact on consumers. Hence, it fails in its purpose of building brand identity for company it represents. Make sure that you design for your target audience.

AVOID CREATING A COMPLEX LOGO
Some designers create complex logo designs to impress clients. That is a big mistake. Logos must look simple to the people and target customers so that they can easily grab a message, which is main purpose behind designing a logo. Moreover, a complex design may lose its shape, size and key design details when printed on different surfaces such as newspaper and billboards. So, avoid creating highly detailed logos. Keep the design as simple as you can.


AVOID ABSTRACT LOGOS
An abstract could grow to be an unforgettable one in several cases. It could keep a company aside and make their design succeed as being earlier than the times and even a piece of art in its own right. However, then there are the abstract logos that are not simply interpretable.

To conclude, your logo design must stand out in the overcrowded market where plenty of logos are vying for consumers’ attention. As you rule out such mistakes in creating your logo, your company is closer to boasting of a unique and memorable logo design that is capable to grab attention of the audience instantly.
