Use Writing as Therapy

Suicide

I'm watching the local and international news stations and I keep hearing of suicides, and suicide bombings. You know it is all so sad, because sometimes these people who do these things, they are just in need of a little love and care from someone.

There are young people out there throwing away their lives, because they are facing something they think they cannot get over. All of it is so hurtful to think of. I know depression, I was depressed once. Thank God I'm free. But others are not, and people can have so many reasons to be sad and believe things will never be better and give up.

You might have someone in your life picking on you, hurting you, and making you feel ugly, stupid, unwanted. I felt all of that, but guess what, life is so funny; you don't know what can happen for you tomorrow. Hope for tomorrow.

That's what disbelief does to us, it makes us feel that what is in front of us, is all there is to reality, and that's not true. So don't give up, don't commit suicide.

Use writing, like I did, to help you cope. Write to someone in a similar situation and encourage them, or write about how your sadness makes you feel and get it out. Keeping it in will destroy you.

Take care now, and do some writing today...

Never Give Up!

Life can be a chore. Sometimes it gets exciting, and you get hopeful. But sometimes it crashes, like a torpedo taking a dive, and you feel like, well, crap. These ups and downs of life are really based on our feelings. Feelings change everyday, many times. To determine that your life is a failure or success based on your feelings is therefore unreliable and dangerous. Why? We go through so many things everyday. Some things are bad and some things are good. If every time you feel bad about something, you become hopeless and sink into despair, you are putting your whole life at risk, over a moment in time. And conversely, if you have something great going on now and you feel good and make decisions on how you feel, even though you might be happy now, those decisions might make you unhappy later. Never make decisions on your feelings. I know this now, because I have made the mistakes and I have gotten so low in my feelings that I have actually attempted suicide more than once. Don...

Advice for Freelancers! Hello again! I hope this new post finds you in good health and much peace of mind. I know how difficult it can be to try to establish yourself in a new market or even to try anything new. It is always good to start with advice, especially from people who were actually in your position and have done well for themselves.

For Fun and Health

Everyone, these days, is afraid of getting a huge gut. 😊 And of course we all understand why, right? Well, huge stomachs, unless you are pregnant, are associated with poor health, right? Sometimes when I'm walking on the road, and I see people with huge stomachs, I wonder how they got those really, big bellies. I have heard that drinking a lot of beer regularly can cause you to get a big belly. I have heard eating late at nights, and then going to sleep does the same thing. Even lack of activity is said to be a culprit. And maybe these are all legitimate causes. But recently, I discovered another culprit for a big gut. I bet you will never guess what. Seriously, you would never think about this one. Let me give you some time to wrack your brain 😁😁😁😁😁😁. Here it is.....your belly is full of sh_t. Yep. It appears that if you haven't done a detox, especially a colon cleanse in a while, your intestine is packed, and loaded with all that excess baggage. If you have a tummy,...
