The Natural Health Boom

By Eric Cho The 20th century has registered a veritable explosive development of alternative medicine. Defined as any health practice which takes the place of, or is not compatible with conventional medicine, alternative medicine differentiates itself from complementary medicine because it uses only nontraditional methods. Alternative medicine features a very broad range of practices. While some of the healing therapies come from Ancient Chinese principles, like acupuncture, and the use of herbal compounds, others are based on Ayurvedic or Hindu therapies. The latter include some of the most well-known therapies, such as the practice of yoga, diet changes and cultivating the connection between mind, body, and spirit. The emphasis on mind, body, and spirit also constitutes the landmark of holistic health, which can be both alternative and complementary. One of the popular figures of this kind of medicine is Dr. Deepak Chopra, who leans toward alternative rather than medical thinking. Despite the fact that he is a graduate of a Western medical university, his teachings are largely contested by the medical community. Massage, chiropractic techniques and practice, meditation, spiritual healing, aromatherapy and exercise practices such as Tai Chi are some other examples of popular alternative therapies. However, there is an almost inexhaustible list of alternative practices. In fact, many people use different forms of alternative medicine, sometimes even without realizing it, for example when they take herbal supplements or vitamins without seeing the doctor first. As such, using the natural supplement Airborne when having a cold instead of consulting the doctor means that alternative medicine is practiced rather than traditional medicine. Studies have showed that over 70 percent of adults over 50 years of age use some kind of alternative therapy in order to treat illness and disease and to maintain a good health. Although the Western medical community strongly opposes these practices, the ascension of alternative practices continues. This happens mainly because alternative practitioners often point to millenary traditions, although few clinical trials have proved their efficiency. However, given the advancement of complementary medicine there is now an entire host of medical schools where alternative methods are taught. Moreover, many physicians are now keen on learning about alternative medicine, as it offers more options in dealing with a medical condition. More and more people now turn to alternative medicine because the traditional medicine can not provide them the means to cure when experiencing a certain condition. In fact, many Western physicians acknowledge the already established practices of alternative medicine and even recommend these therapies for patients whom they cannot help otherwise. Although a large range of physicians still remain skeptical, alternative medicine appears to many as a last resort solution. Despite its popularity, alternative medicine is generally not covered by health insurance companies. Sometimes chiropractics may be part of a health plan, but otherwise nutritional supplements, acupuncture, yoga classes, or other alternative therapies must all be paid for by the beneficiary. However, alternative methods are increasingly popular because they pay attention not just to the physical body, but also to the spiritual, emotional and mental aspects of ones health.

The “Goofiest” Of All Fishing Trips

By A.J. Klott There are a lot of places in this world where one can go to find solace, peace and tranquility while wetting a line for fish. Walt Disney World in Orlando Florida is not the first place that comes to mind. Nonetheless, right there beneath the shadow of the Magic Kingdom, amongst wide-eyed roller coaster riders, a stones throw from Tinkerbell’s safety harness, exists one of the prime Largemouth Bass fishing waters you will find anywhere. Remote? No. Pristine? Hardly. Filled with hungry fat Largemouth Bass….YES!! I’m not really sure what compelled me to book a two hour Disney Bass fishing adventure. I don’t know if I was curious that possibly a rather large mouse might show up at the dock with a fishing vest full of sponsor patches,and a big wad of chew between his cheek and gum. Or, if mechanical alligators might raise up out of the water- jaws agape-while I reached down to pick up my bass by the lips. Or, if perhaps cannonballs might be landing dangerously close to the boat as we all sang yo-ho yo- ho a fisherman’s life for me…. Or maybe, just maybe, after wandering around the Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot and MGM for four days, bouncing off of an endless stream of six year olds with attached parents in tow,eating space burgers,frontier burgers,Yeti burgers, and trying to figure out how to amuse myself in line for 60 minutes while waiting to have the POOH scared out of me…..maybe, just maybe I thought that I might just find a few hours away from the hustle,bustle and silent freakish stares of Chip and Dale. I must admit, as we were making plans for a family trip to the mother of all amusement parks, I had spotted this fishing adventure on the Disney website. As my wife locked us in for five days of “Disney Magic”, I writhed in agony wondering just how many princesses there must be if it takes five days to see them.My six year old daughter was obviously thrilled. Being a card carrying member of the “I want to go fishing club”, I figured this may be my only opportunity to sneak in some fishing on this trip. And if you have ever looked at a map of the Orlando area, you will see that this is an abundant area of lakes, not to mention short drives to the coastal areas and ocean fishing galore. In other words it was killing me, knowing how close to great fishing I was–but unless they had trout swimming along the waterways of Splash Mountain–I was never going to see any of them. So, after the third day of posing for pictures with oversized rodents, dragons, and perky princesses, I called the Disney central reservation line for “active fun”-as if screaming and doing isometric hand grips on Expedition Everest, or ogling Pocahontas is not considered active fun!- and booked a bass fishing trip for the next morning. Evidently, the line and waiting period for the “largemouth bass ride” is not nearly as long as the wait for Peter Pan, because the nice girl (I think it may have been Cinderella) was able to get us a fishing trip out of the Contemporary Hotel Marina with no problem. Didn’t even have to get a FastPass!! Best of all, we didn’t have to get up early. We were scheduled for 10:00 a.m. Like all Disney events and productions, great attention to detail and planning is done to insure the perfect family experience. That is why catch and release is the practice on Seven Seas lagoon and Bay lake, (the two primary fishing waters at Walt Disney World) and probably a big reason for the reliable fishery. AND like all Disney adventures and productions, the perfect family experience has it’s price. $230.00 for two hours of fishing! That’s a lotta rubber worms. In fairness, that is the rental of the boat and the boat can handle up to five fishermen(four if they are wearing mouse ears.) so really you technically can get it under fifty bucks a person. AND like all Disney events-it was well worth the price to see the excited look on my daughters face when I told her we were gonna catch us ” a messa bass”. Most of the guides showed up at the marina a few minutes early and looked like they had part time roles on The Animal Planet. The boats were spotless, fully equipped and ready to go. Since there were three of us and we had a “little one” on board, we were given a pontoon type boat rather than a bass boat. I expected Steve the crocodile hunter to be our guide for the day,but as it turned out our guide was to be a lovely lady by the name of Holly. Guess Goofy had the day off. After quick introductions we were on board our Tracker and on our way. Now, for those of you that have read any previous articles I have written, you will quickly realize that I was going fishing with three members of the “e-factor” estrogen fishing society. If you are not familiar with this secret society, let’s just say that I had about as much of a chance of outfishing these ladies as getting a date with Ariel or Snow White. As we motored our way out of the natural waters of Bay lake and into the man made Seven Seas lagoon, Holly, a veteran of over twenty years in the Disney corporation, gave us some interesting facts on her background with Disney World. Having spent the first part of her career with Disney in “guest relations” she had mainly handled “guest” complaints, so the fishing guide position she had held for the last eight years was a welcome relief. She had grown up in Louisiana fishing for bass, and she was well qualified for obviously one of the most coveted positions that the 70,000 or so folks on the Disney World payroll could have. Spending your day out on the water away from the crowds certainly seemed a better tour of duty, than trying to manipulate a pen with oversized paws inside a large fur coat in 90 degree weather. But that’s just me. We motored on by the big ferry boat loaded with another group of guests ready for a d-day like assault on the Magic Kingdom, and pulled up to the shallows near an island. I knew I would have to catch my fish early on, before the “estrogen” effect would occur and I would be relegated to camera duty. Even though catch and release is the practice on these waters, live bait is still the bait of choice. Being a steelhead and salmon fisherman from Oregon I was unfamiliar with the little “shiners” that they use down south to produce the big bass, but as if on cue, within a minute of tossing the little fellar into the drink I had my first largemouth on–and it was a nice one too! I hoisted a chubby four pound bass onto the boat, and as I grabbed him by the “largemouth” I made sure he was real, and not some animatronic Disney bass that was about to break into a chorus of “You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog”. Pretty soon Sara, my daughter, had her first bass on and mom was right behind her with her first bass. Dang, the estrogen had kicked in early. As promised, Disney had already delivered a great family experience and since most of the fish caught by my daughter had been crappie sized fish out of her Grandpa’s pond, the look of excitement that Sara had on her face when she hoisted her first largemouth bass was well worth the price of admission. We each caught several more bass with the biggest running close to five pounds. Sara, like any six year old, quickly lost interest in the labor involved with catching fish, and turned her interest to the “shiners” swimming in the live well. I guess you might say she took a shine to ‘em!! HA! Anyway, she became are unofficial “shiner” go-fer, and kept the little fish in shape, by chasing them around trying to catch them with her bare hands. After a short dry spell, we headed off to other “pristine” waters. This spot happened to be at the ferry landing, where all the people line up for the d-day assault.Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of Disney patrons and a couple of Herons and Egrets, we went bass fishing. After landing another big chubby in front of the bored line sitters, they all let out a loud cheer and like the shy fella I am, I hoisted my trophy like I had just won Bassmaster’s $10,000 first prize on ESPN. Unfortunately, one of our released fish didn’t fare to well and soon was floating belly up near the ferry boat. A Heron made a heroic effort to hoist the big fish from the waters, but the two pound fish was too much and he retired back to his front row seat on shore. Although there is always going to be a certain amount of attrition, even when you are catching and releasing fish, I think the Disney folks would just as soon their bass went belly up away from the gates to Fantasyland, and we soon had a radio call from Holly’s boss telling us to move from the docks-because it was too windy. Seemed odd since there was only the faintest of breezes in the air. We still felt bad, and certainly didn’t want to be responsible for kids being permanently scarred for life, so we moved. Not that Disney does anything to ever permanently scar kids!!?? It was just as well, because by now my wife was using her unfair estrogen advantage to outfish me two to one, which was even noticed by the ferry boat- line operator, who made it a point to walk over to our boat and tell us of his keen observation. Darn estrogen. By the time we motored our way back into Bay lake our “two hour cruise” was pretty much at an end. Of course there was still the matter of settling up on the bill, and receiving a nice complimentary subscription to a bass fishing magazine—which of course happens to be owned by Disney….. As we left the boat and headed back into the perfect world of magical princesses, long lines, and the ever present gift shops, I couldn’t help but think that I had just got off the best ride at Disney World. Well-except for the Mad Tea Cups…. A.J. Klott Author, writer of fishing humor,and “fly tack” peddler.A.J. writes about the people,characters and modern day events that surround the fishing world.

Drinking & Dieting - How To lose Half a Stone Quickly

By Kelly Price If you want to lose weight fast then what you drink is just as important as what you eat. Here we are going to look at drinking and dieting and how by making some simple changes in your drinks you can lose weight fast. These drinking and dieting tips are easy so lets look at them. 1. Coffee Its great that we have so many different varieties of coffee and specialist coffee shops have been one of the major growth industries in recent years. Only one problem - many coffees contain up to 400 calories the equivalent of a filling snack. Also caffeine gives an energy boost followed by a slump, so you are then more likely to eat to satisfy your craving for energy. If you must drink coffee take it black (or coffee with skimmed milk at around 10 calories its the best option. Or try drinking tea. Green tea is a great option. It has been found that drinking 5 cups a day boosts the metabolism that can see you burn up to 70 extra calories a day. 2. Drink water Drink plenty of fresh water. Water is an important catalyst in losing weight and keeping it off. It acts as a natural appetite suppressant by keeping your stomach full and fending off dehydration which can lead to hunger pangs. When we get “hunger signals”, in many cases they are thirst signals”, so drink 1.5 2 liters a day to fend them off Water also helps your body metabolize stored fat by helping the kidneys flush out waste. Drinking eight glasses of cold iced water each day burns about 60 calories. Your body has to work to raise that waters temperature to your body’s temperature. This results in burning about 420 calories per week. 3. Carbonated Drinks Here you need to consider that a can of coke has around 150 calories so 4 day means 600 the equivalent of a meal. Switch to diet options or cut down. Carbonated drinks in terms of calories add up! 4. A tasty foiling lunch drink Soup is fantastic for weight loss, is full of goodness and is filling and their great in the winter to. Make sure you go for healthy options lots of vegetables, fish, beans and chicken are good options. Vegetables have slow realise carbs for energy and the meat protein which makes you feel full for far longer. 5. In the morning get started with Juice full of goodness and tasty but be careful. You need to drink juice with pulp in it (i.e the bits) as these are shown to keep you full longer and prevent snacking. Buy fruit juice without added processed sugar make sure its organic and full of pulp. 6. Alcohol The killer on a diet but you dont have to give up entirely. Consider the fact that alcohol is laden with calories and increases appetite and you can see how it can ruin your diet. Lets be honest though many of us like a drink, but you need to be sensible. If you are out and want a drink then the best option is a sprit and a diet mixer or the occasioal glass of wine with a meal is ok. How much can simple drink changes make to your diet? When dieting drinking and dieting are closely linked and unless you are careful about your drinking your diet will suffer. Follow the above tips though and you will soon be losing weight fast and feeling great so try them.

My Favorite Wiper Tactics

By Mark Coleman We’re nowhere near the height of the open water season, but I thought I would summarize what I know about wiper fishing. Bait fishing: Slip or egg-sinker rig, with 1-3′ leader, baited with cut baits like carp, or shrimp, or live baits like crawlers or minnows. Worm harnesses bounced on the bottom, or pulled behind bottom bouncers from a boat also work on the bottom. Certain soft plastic jerkbaits are also said to work, although I haven’t tried them. Bobber fishing: At the right time of year (Spring, early Summer, and Fall), a 3″ live shiner or sunfish suspended 4′ below a large bobber can produce nice fish in areas where wipers come in to feed around dusk (along dams or riprap, or on sandy bottom flats. Poppers: Long-bodied poppers, like the Rapala Skitter Pop and similar poppers can produce well in the early morning and around dusk, especially when shad are schooling high in the water column. Crankbaits: Trolling a Rat-L Trap 1/4 oz. can be deadly during the spring and well into summer, and during the fall. It also works to cast them into schools of shad when you run into wipers pounding them at the surface. Other crankbaits produce wipers, too, such as the Rattlin’ Rapala and classic floating or suspending Rapalas in fairly short lengths that have a more vigorous action than longer Rapalas. I haven’t tried jointed Rapalas, but I suspect they will work well also. Experiment with colors and patterns, but I find that silver and blue Rat-L Traps work as well as any crankbait. Streamers - Fly fishing: Wipers are always hit or miss, so some people don’t like to expend the energy required to cast heavy streamers with heavy rods. Those that do are often rewarded by hungry wipers. I fish Lefty’s Deceivers and Clouser Minnows tied on stainless steel hooks in sizes 2, 4, and 6. I like chartreuse and white, pink and white, blue and white, black and white, and brown and white. I keep switching until I find the right colors. You can use #1, 2 or 3 fly leaders, if you want, but it’s more economical to just use 12 lb. test mono (about 7-10 ft.) because you don’t need a tapered leader when you’re throwing heavy streamers. I have used floating, neutral, or sinking lines with success. Wipers are hit and miss in most places, but when they are on, you won’t find a fish with more game. They produce nice fillets, too. http://www.fishinsecrets.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Mark_Coleman http://EzineArticles.com/?My-Favorite-Wiper-Tactics&id=238064 zyprexa ambien alcohol ambien cold turkey ativan burns online pharmacy2c ambien

10 Ways to Identify if Your Lawyer is Right for You

By Paul W Wilson An ideal lawyer will not just have a string of impressive credentials or gold lettering on his door. He or she will be caring, concerned, and devoted to their work. You need to think carefully before laying your trust in a lawyer after all in some cases your life, future, money or property will be in his hands. Apart from doing extensive research to short list possible lawyers you must ensure that there is not conflict of interest, that you understand everything the retainer agreement states, and that you have checked the references and details regarding the practice. You will know the lawyer you have chosen is the perfect one if: 1. He makes an effort to spend time to understand your case himself. He will not assign a legal assistant to take facts of the case down. 2. From experience and knowledge he will know what is relevant and what is not. He will set aside and ignore irrelevant facts, opinions, and personal emotions that cloud the case on hand. 3. He will insist that the footwork for the case be done thoroughly. All facts must be checked for accuracy and solid arguments jotted down with backing of earlier rulings. 4. He will not just focus on the problem at hand but examine the problem from all sides. This will create a complete picture highlighting all factors of relevance and the different ways one can approach the case. 5. He will use his foresight and anticipate moves by the opposition or opinions of the jury or judge and plan way ahead. Like a master chess player he will plan the case not by the day but by many hearings ahead. 6. He will not waste time beating around the bush or create verbose statementsmany words strung together which look impressive but mean nothing. He will insist that the case and its arguments be clearly stated. 7. He will be self-disciplined, thorough, and self confident. Courteous at all times he will respect you as well as all the staff who work for him. 8. He is recommended by not just his friends and relatives but by other professionals of good standing and from his field. 9. He will not just present to you his victories but be happy to tell you why and how he lost certain cases. 10. He will lay the cards on the table and tell you clearly whether your case stands to win or loose. He will not claim that winning is guaranteed. He will be honest and upfront about his opinions and advice. The bottom line is that the lawyer must be worthy of your trust. Use your inborn instincts and dont go by the lawyers good looks or fancy car or office. After all it is competence in law and in court that is of essence to you.

Modern Wedding Invitations for the Tragically Hip

By Amy Lee Johnson Modern living isn’t just a lifestyle - it’s a look. Think streamlined. Understated. It’s all about high-quality materials and simple lines. How do you get this in a modern wedding invitation? Think design, color, and texture. Modern Design Yesterday’s wedding invitations were ornate creations on heavy white paper. Rectangular paper. Really rebellious people used a colored ink for the text. Boring. Now, it’s all about choices. Modern invitations come in any shape you can dream up. Squares. Circles. Or in the form of ticket stubs. And the envelopes that hold them are gorgeous. Stroll through a specialty paper store. You’ll find envelopes that open like flowers. Or origami-like structures with intricate folds. The modern invitation isn’t just a message. It’s a work of art. And a keepsake in its own right. Modern Color White never goes out of style. But it isn’t the only option. Choose a paper in a vivid color if that suits your personality. A more modern invitation has layers. Choose a deep color for the base layer. Glue on a smaller sheet in a neutral shade. Coordinate the invitation colors with your wedding. You’ve just created eye candy. Modern Texture The modern invitation moves beyond your basic smooth paper. You can find paper embedded with leaves. Or flowers. Two-tone shimmery paper. Paper so nubby you start petting it. With all these choices, it’s easy to go crazy. You want your wedding invitations to be fun. And beautiful. But your guests should know what it is when it comes in the mail. For the perfect modern look, balance all of these factors. Let your outer envelope sport a nubby texture. Or a cool shape. Let your guest find a clean white square mounted on a lavish background color. Let the color, texture, and design draw them into the mood of your wedding. Before they even arrive. The modern invitation isn’t just a look. It’s an experience. It’s perfection. Amy Lee Johnson is a freelance writer who often contributes to Wedding-Vows-4u.com a site that gives useful hints and tips such as buying wedding invitations or writing wedding vows.

How to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Heather_Colman] Heather Colman Concerta, a brand name for the drug Methylphenidate, is an amphetamine-like prescription stimulant commonly used to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD in children and adults. Other brand names include Ritalin, Ritalina, Metadate, Methylin and Rubifen. Concerta is also one of the primary drugs used to treat symptoms of traumatic brain injury and the daytime drowsiness symptoms of narcolepsy and chronic fatigue syndrome. This drug and was initially prescribed as a treatment for depression, chronic fatigue, and narcolepsy, among other ailments. Beginning in the 1960s, it was used to treat children with ADHD, known at the time as hyperactivity or minimal brain dysfunction. Today Concerta is a popular medication prescribed to treat ADHD around the world. According to most estimates, more than 75 percent of prescriptions containing Methylphenidate are written for children. Boys being about four times as likely to take Concerta as girls. Concerta is a central nervous system stimulant. It has a “calming” effect on many children who have ADHD, reducing impulsive behavior and the tendency to “act out”, and helps them concentrate on schoolwork and other tasks. Adults who have ADHD often find that Concerta increases their ability to focus on tasks and organize their lives. Concerta has been found to have a lower incidence of side-effects compared to dextroamphetamine, a less commonly prescribed medication. When prescribed at the correct dosage, Concerta is usually well-tolerated by patients. Some consider the treatment of children with stimulant medication to be controversial since the number of children taking them has increased dramatically over the years. However, criticism that Concerta and other brand name drugs that contain methylphenidate are over prescribed may be unfounded. The incidence of ADHD is believed to be between three and five percent of the population, while the number of children in America taking Concerta and Ritalin is estimated at one to two percent. Some have argued that prescription of stimulant medications sets children up for future addictions. However, recent research suggests that boys with ADHD who are treated with stimulants like Concerta are actually less likely to abuse drugs including alcohol later in life. As long-term use of Concerta and other drugs that contain methylphenidate was relatively uncommon before the 1990s. The long-term neurological effects were not well researched. In a 2005 study, no “clinically significant” effects on growth, vital signs, tics, or laboratory tests including urinalysis, hematology/complete blood counts, electrolytes, and liver function tests were observed after 2 years of treatment. Disclaimer: The information presented here should not be interpreted as medical advice. Please seek professional medical advice regarding the use of Concerta or any other medication containing Methylphenidate. [Copyright 2007, Heather Colman.

10 Simple Steps for Fixing Your Cell Phone If It Gets Wet!

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=David_Woodford]David Woodford Who hasn’t experienced the gut-wrenching sensation of seeing their cell phone fall in to the pool; or the sharp intake of breath when a cup of coffee is spilled over the phone! What do you do (other than panic) when that happens? Look at the 10 suggested steps below - and maybe not all is lost after all. 1. First - and most important - get it out of the water! 2. Also urgent - remove the battery. Prevent any interactions FAST! 3. Remove your SIM card. All your vital information is here. Even if you don’t rescue your phone, at least rescue your SIM card. For now, just put it to one side to dry out naturally. 4. Remove as much water as possible as quickly as possible. Just use an absorbent material (toweling or paper tissues) 5. An alternate drying technique is to seal the phone (with everything removed) in a plastic bag with a few of silica packs that you get with electronic goods etc. Leave the phone in the bag for a day or two, and it may be that the silica will absorb the moisture 6. Give time for the phone to dry. Don’t experiment with putting the battery back on to see if it works as this would risk damaging the phone with a short circuit. 7. Be patient and wait. Yes - be patient! Let nature have its way; just leave it in a warm place and let the water evaporate. 8. Try replacing the battery if all else fails. They are not expensive and it may solve the problem 9. See if there is a loan phone available. That will also make the waiting process easier. 10. Test it out. After being patient for 3 days, make sure everything is clean and dry and re-attach the battery to the phone and see if it works. If your phone does not work, wait another few days. If it still won’t work, try taking your cell phone to an authorized dealer. Sometimes they can fix it. Other ideas * Place it on top of the vent of a cable box, monitor or TV for at least 24 hours (up to 3 days). The low heat emitted is enough to gently dry out the phone. * If your phone falls in to salt water (like the ocean for instance), remove the battery and rinse with fresh water before crystals can form. * Consider soaking your phone in distilled water to wash away any minerals it picked up from the original water. Be careful * Do not under any circumstances heat the battery - it could leak or explode. Lithium-ion batteries are sensitive. If you use an oven or hairdryer, remove the battery first. * If you use alcohol for the drying process, only do so to the outside, and do not apply heat in any way shape or form, not even the gentlest of heat. Do not connect the battery until the alcohol smell goes away * And, if it’s not stating the obvious, do not put the phone into the microwave. You will fry the components and probably ruin the microwave! If you want to find out what to do if the phone still doesnt work go to http://www.info4u-services.com/cellphone - it will be worth it!

Men Cry Too

By Susan Russo “It is the way we react to circumstances that determines our feelings.” -Dale Carnegie When we think about talking about our feelings or being emotional, generally we think of women. Psychologists have discovered that men clearly deal with their emotions differently than women. Men Are From Mars Women Are From Venus, by by John Gray speaks to the many differences in the genders. It’s almost as if we brush men’s feelings under the rug because we know they will handle it on their own and bounce back. But, we come running to the aid of our girlfriends because they “need” us. Let’s face it, it’s a whole lot easier for awoman to cry on your shoulder than it is for a man. Women come with a built in support system. If they’re heart broken they simply call a friend and get to cry their hearts out. If a guy is hurting over someone and calls a friend; more than likely there won’t be a whole lot of crying going on. They may hear stuff like: Sarah who? She wasn’t worth it anyway. Or, forget that b*tch and let’s go out. Or, come on man, feel bad for 5 minutes and get over it, the games on tonight. Feelings aren’t something that men share with their buddies. Unless they have friends that are women they will have to deal with all of their emotions; alone. Even though it’s more accepted for men to talk about their feelings now, they typically aren’t consoled the same way a women would be. But, the reality is; that it is just as painful for men to go through a breakup or divorce as it is for a women. We may have are many differences, but a broken heart feels the same whether it’s in a man’s body or a woman’s. So for all of you men out there who are quietly suffering through your heartache, it’s time to reach out and touch someone. Don’t be afraid to talk to your “girl” friends, you’ll never find anyone more understanding. Find your way to a “relationship forum” on the internet. There you can anonymously pour your heart out and get some pretty good advice. Go to the book store and read something that soothes your soul. Hang out with good friends. Keeping yourself busy is key to letting go of the past and moving forward. We all know it’s no fun to have to go through, but the sooner you deal with your feelings and let them go; the better you will begin to feel. Things don’t always work out the way we want. But, as you know, it’s not what happens to us that matters as much as how we handle it and who we become after we’ve lived through it. Just like we tell our girlfriends, “Don’t worry, you’ll get over it.” They always do and you will too!
