Finding Myself
Hello there! You’re probably wondering what a person who’s “finding themselves” can tell to someone who’s already established, but if i could have just a few minutes of your spare time I’d love to share my thoughts on said subject.....so here it goes. We won’t go back to childhood or teen years(I’d be writing all night if i did) so we’ll start with early adulthood. Have you ever stopped and just wondered to yourself “what is it exactly that i want in life?” Well I’ve been there too many times to count! But in my earlier 20’s, i only wanted one thing....freedom. Freedom from emotional stress, physical pains, mental breakdowns, spiritual bondage, financial strain, intellectual inabilities. It was pretty bad. And at some point i felt i could or should just try and tackle everything all at once so i can be happy and have minimum worries. Well that led to a series of mental and emotional traumas that became too much for me to handle on my own. Of course I sought help and assistance where it given and offered, but i still felt incomplete! So i began moving around a lot in search of my genuine happiness and guess what? I had to lose everything i had in my attempts of rushing to my happiness in or order for me to sit down and actually THINK about what it is I really want in life. When you’re soul searching, so much goes into it from moving to the right location, being around the right kind of people, having the right accommodations. I know it sounds like “oh she wants everything to be perfect and that’s impossible” but think about it. If you really want peace, happiness, freedom, and your own means of life wouldn’t being properly accommodated make that so much easier? Well, I’ve made a list which I add to weekly or monthly in the things i need to accomplish and aquire to get to where I’m going. Sometimes I’m able to mark things off pretty quickly feeling very productive and accomplished. But then i become content and lose sight of the bigger picture to my long term goals and things start slipping from the foundation up. Not this time tho. This time I won’t stop until I have everything I ever dreamed of, if i have to cross a couple of oceans to get to my dreams that’s exactly what I’ll do! My life lessons have been to love myself first, take care of me before trying to pull others along for the ride, enjoy the small things i do have, when red flags appear take heed instead of being soooo optimistic,& focus and determination gets you a lot further then taking giant leaps of faith every single time!

Living With Stage 4 Cirrhosis
I walked into the doctor's office to get the results of my biopsy, blood work, ultasound, and fibroscan nearly a year ago. At that time I had fatty liver disease and fibrosis of the liver. I didn't expect any dramatic changes because I felt fine at the time, nothing seemed drastically wrong. I left my husband outside in the van cause he hates sitting in the doctor's office. My name was called and I was led to a very nice room to await the doctor.

How to Quit Smoking Cold Turkey: Saved by the Power of Sudoku
Before telling you how my wife quit cold turkey, I need to tell you just a little bit about her story. I told my wife that she was killing me slowly often, but that was not a good enough reason for her to stop lighting up. Her smoking didn't put me off from dating her when we were younger, however it did put a damper on me wanting to be around her when she did. You see, I have a history of bronchitis issues and asthma. When we moved to North Carolina, I found that I had added severe allergies to the list of problems I with which I had to suffer. Mine is so bad that I could sneeze through paint on a wall. Winters are especially rough with me as it was often too cold for her to take her cigarettes outside.

What All Can Lead To The Failure Of A Hair Transplant?
Losing hair is always a tough thing to accept and while many people will choose to ignore it initially, there are several who will immediately head to a transplant clinic to get a transplant. Simply put, both approaches are wrong – if you are noticing severe hair loss, you need to make sure that you go meet a specialist or a doctor, to figure out exactly what is causing the hair loss. Alternately, directly jumping into a hair transplant is also wrong, because not all people with hair loss will prove to be ideal candidates for a transplant. The latter is one of the most common reason for transplants not being successful, but this just one amongst many.

The Past Is Not Who You Are - Realize That to Be Free
In many people, the personality is almost entirely identified with the past. For those people, what they have done is essential for them and is all their ego recognizes as real and important, as the key factor to evaluate who they are, their achievements, or future goals.
