welcome to the Friday Series; Health Matters. Here we discuss issues to improve on general well being, mostly to improve womens health.
What you do shortly after you rise and shine can determine whether you're going to be in a positive or negative mood all day long. Make sure that you start yourself off on the right foot by taking these happiness-boosting actions first thing in the a.m.
Get Chatty
You may think that keeping quiet while taking public transportation will make you happier—but talking with a stranger during your morning commute is actually a better way to brighten your day, according to a study published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General.
Don't take a bus or train to work? Try striking up a conversation with the person in line behind you at the coffee shop, or while you line up @ the BRT stand.
Log on to Facebook
Here's the best excuse to check Facebook that we've ever heard: Browsing through old Facebook photos can help make you happier, according to a study out of the University of Portsmouth in the U.K. Take a trip down memory lane before you head to work to boost your mood all day long.
Listen to Music
You forgot your lunch, and your dress already has a spot on it. Turn your morning around by listening to upbeat music. A University of Missouri study found that happy tunes can indeed give you a pick-me-up. Looks like Pharrell is on to something!- one reason I love Pharrel's because I'm happy song...
Throw Your Bad Mood Away
Something as simple as writing negative thoughts on a piece of paper and then tossing them out can do wonders for your mood. Research published in the journal Psychological Science found that this exercise can trick your brain into disposing of those bad thoughts.
Wake Up Earlier
Believe it or not, rising earlier than you normally do may make you happier; a 2012 study published in the journal Emotion found that morning people are usually happier and more positive than night owls.
Eat Your Omega-3s
People who eat lots of good-for-you fats are more upbeat. Add some walnuts to your cereal for an omega-3 boost.
Starting off your day with omega-3 fatty acids is a great way to have a happier morning. Good for you fats include;oats, eggs, fish, apples, smoothies...

Types of men to avoid....
Types of guys you should Never date... general, women tend to rely on words, whereas men rely on actions. So, when men speak sweetly to women, women believe them, even if they don't behave accordingly. Men, on the other hand, see how women behave, and interpret the behavior to mean what they want to believe, regardless of what the woman says.
This discrepancy between words and behavior is especially problematic in marriage-bound relationships. So, watch out if your man is one of these five types:
The "help me until I'm ready" guy. The "need help" type is totally entrenched in his own insecurities. He only talks about his own problems -- never yours -- but he wants a lady by his side because it makes him feel worthy. So, he keeps her there by asking her to help him "until he's ready." But, guess what: He'll never be ready, and so, he is not husband material.
The "dare to discuss marriage" guy. Since he knows women believe in words not actions, he dares talk about marriage and future plans with you, knowing it's what you want to hear. But that's all he'll do; no further action is ever taken. There is never a timeframe for actions; actions are even never discussed, and if they come up, the conversation suddenly goes in different directions.
The "be my guest and discuss marriage" guy. This guy lets you do all the talking about marriage you like. He knows you dream about it; he listens to you discuss it in great detail -- where your home will be, what kind of furniture you'll buy, what kind of wedding you want. And when you ask him about dreams, he says, "Whatever you want, honey." Always look at his actions. If there aren't any, if he's all talk, he's not husband material.
The "bear with me" guy. He finds nice, logical excuses that seem acceptable. You know, he can't take action now because he's busy with his career, or his weight loss, or his parents' needs. You name it, and the statement is "Bear with me."
The "let's have fun first" guy. He sticks around for the thrill of the game. When the fun is out, he's onto a new adventure and a new thrill. He's not here for future plans or kids or family or even settling down and confiding in one woman. He wants and talks about fun and about sex. Whenever you talk marriage, the face changes, the fun ends, and the statement he repeats is, "You are spoiling the moment," hoping you'll eventually drop the subject. If you don't, soon he'll be out and about for another thrill.
Survival code: If u meet any of these guys, lady please I suggest you remove your shoes, hold it in your hands and girl:RUN...run like you are about to win a medal.*winks*

TO DO....and YOU MUST
False, unhealthy beliefs about humans and relationships... In todays mémoire we bust another of this général beliefs.
My thoughts; I dare to say in keeping any kind of Relationship alive, There are key important factors which one must Never play around with.
1. COMMUNICATION
I am talking about deep level communication, one that Is open and constant, one that stimulates and builds up not tear down. In communicating; know that we are different.
Trick Tart: Remember that men and women communicate differently, so do not think he/she would talk to You about something the way You would.
Men tend to be linear minded; that Is communicate one subject at a time While women Can jump from one topic to another without Much trouble.
BOTTOMLINE: remember the différence between both of You.
2. BE WILLING; be willing to talk about everything. It keeps Relationship healthy and growing, when You communicate with an open mind.
3. LISTEN to each other: I find out that its so easy to get défensive thèse days. You think that your partner has done or said something to hurt You, so You Just shut down and withdraw.
Trick Tart: please take time to listen...
My Point Is Pay attention to communication in your Relationship today and make Learning how to communicate one of the Most important thing You do in your Relationship.

Wisdom and its outcome
My people...hope y'all had a wonderful weekend? I did.... So I was reading a wonderful book quotations.com; its a little book on lovely powerful quotes from famous people.
I was able to gather a few from the famous Leo Buscaglia...here is a little biography:
Felice Leonardo Buscaglia Ph.D. (31 March 1924 - 11 June 1998) was a professor of Italian descent at the University of Southern California, who authored a number of New York Times bestselling inspirational books on of love and human reticences on the subject, including The Fall of Freddie the Leaf, Bus 9 to Paradise, Living Loving and Learning, and Love. In lectures he often protested, in outrage at the comparative absence of writings on the subject, "I got the copyright for love!!!"
Here are a few quotes from him; thèse quotes are centered on love, life and Learning.
1. A wonderful realization will be the day you realize that you are unique in all the world. There is nothing that is an accident. You are a special combination for a purpose-and don't let them tell you otherwise, even if they tell you that purpose is an illusion. (Live an illusion if you have to). You are that combination so that you can do what is essential for you to do. Don't ever believe that you have nothing to contribute. The world is an incredible unfulfilled tapestry. And only you can fulfill
2. Time has no meaning in itself unless we choose to give it significance.
3. Love is life;and if you miss love, you miss life.
4. Love can never grow old. Locks may lose their brown and gold. Cheeks may fade and hollow grow. But the hearts that love will know, never winter's frost and chill, summer's warmth is in them still.
5. Don't smother each other. No one can grow in the shade.
6. Don't hold to anger, hurt or pain. They steal your energy and keep you from love.
7. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
8. Each of our acts makes a statement as to our purpose.
9. The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another, smile at someone and receive a smile in return, are to me continual spiritual exercises.
10. Your talent is God's gift to you; what you do with it, is your gift to God.
11. The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position.
12. What you are is God's gift to you, what you do with yourself is your gift to God.
13. A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.
14. If we wish to free ourselves from enslavement, we must choose freedom and the responsibility this entails.
15. There are two big forces in this world. External and Internal. This one we have little control over: external forces such as tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, disasters, illness and pain. What really matters is the internal force. How do I respond to those disasters? Over that I have complete control.
16. I have a very strong feeling that the opposite of love is not hate -- it's apathy. It's not giving a damn.
17. We all need each other.
18. If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.
19. Most of us are pawns in a game of love we don't understand.
Hope You Read and let the bug of wisdom bite You.
Enjoy
