    bestwriter wrote a new post, Saying ‘I love you’ Fortifies a Relationship 8 years ago

    I came across a blog here which talked about how this couple court even after 44 years of their marriage. This link will take you there:

    I could add something more to what is already expressed there.

    Love is […]

    • Love can be anything. I love a plant. I regularly nourish it. I daily give it water and manure it with appropriate quantity. When it gives flowers i use them. Even when it stops giving flower I love it. I do not want to forgo it at any time to anybody. The body is stronger than any other thing. I take every precaution so that nobody goes near it and play with it removing the leaves, cutting the branches etc. I do not tolerate it if anybody does it and even do not tolerate such thing even in my dream. I take every care that is needed. I want to possess it for myself. This is a kind of selfishness. Love needs selfishness. The plant also loves me But it can not express it as it can not talk.

      But in the case of a love between human beings they can express it. Here also the element of selfishness exists. But time and distance may sometimes separate them. Even then there exists love.

      One should always remember that love does not mean living under one roof. It can exist and survive even without roof.

      • Loving someone and possessing someone are two different. We tend to possess and not love.

    • Yes, love has power to strengthen relationship of every kind as matrimonial relationship, love relationship. business relationship, teacher-student relationship…but love must be sincere not fake love because love is the child human holy soul.

      But each kind of love has its own distinctive feel. The kind of love we feel for a parent is different from our love for a baby brother or best friend. And the kind of love we feel in romantic relationships is its own unique type of love.

      Our ability to feel romantic love develops during adolescence. Teens all over the world notice passionate feelings of attraction. Even in cultures where people are not allowed to act on or express these feelings, they’re still there. It’s a natural part of growing up to develop romantic feelings and sexual attractions to others. These new feelings can be exciting — or even confusing at first.

      Love is the best thing on earth and it is gift of God for men and women on earth to spread among the loveless mass.

      • There is a tendency to mistake passion, romance, chemistry and infatuation for love.

    • Love is a mutual thing between two people. It has to be go eh and received in return. No one wants to give out love and get no love back in return. When you love someone the feeling has to be felt both ways. The only difference that we may experience with love is when we don’t know how to communicate it to our partners. Women usually communicate their love with feelings whereas men use the visual part of it. And sometimes when feelings are not communicated they spell out neglect to women, and women always want to hear stuff like I love you, I miss you and the like, but for men it’s quite different. for a man to communicate that he loves a woman he will buy her gifts and take her out those are the things that man will do and that will feel like they have fulfilled the wants of their women. But that’s not it something more has to be done and that’s what men just don’t get. All in all I think saying I love you is a good way to start in a relationship but as the relationship progresses on then one is expected to know how the partner may want to be recognized and treated in a special way.

      • Although it is said actions speak louder than words a conversation has power. And yes it should be both ways.

        • I do agree with your statement that actions speak louder than words but there are cases when we have to express our love for someone.

          Sometimes it becomes the need of the hour to express our love.

          Expressing our love in the form of some proper words enables us to handle difficult situation with great ease.

    There are many types of palms and adding them in a garden gives it a classy look. I have the Royal Palm, Bottle Palm and Ficus Palm. Palms need very little maintenance and most of these palms give out succulents – […]

    • Yes, palm trees are most beautiful tress on earth but without shade for the tired travelers. There are many trees that have no shade as palm,date tree…..but why they have no shade God knows who have created them on earth. But I think a my mystery lies in it human beings unknown to it.

      The long popular ficus trees belong to the fig genus. Although only a few are seen in cultivation, there are hundreds of species of ficus. They are native throughout the tropics, including Asia, America and Africa.

      It is a house tree that looks good growing in the home garden. Décor is one of the main reasons many people grow plants within a home, and it’s easy to see why. The look and feel of a living room, bedroom or even hallway can be transformed with indoor plants.

      I think that Palm plants and shrubs bring empty spaces and large rooms, alive. Many can tolerate fairly low light conditions which allows them to be placed near doors, stairs, in hallways, and next to fire surrounds.

      One of the huge advantages of growing plants indoors is the improvement of air quality and the removal of toxins from the environment. Most of you will be aware from school teachings that plants convert carbon dioxide into the air we breath (oxygen), so it makes sense to allow some space in the home for them to promote good health .

      Nasa (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) created a clean air study for space stations and produced a list of house plants that do more than just turn carbon dioxide into oxygen. The list Nasa produced of various house plants remove large quantities of benzene, formaldehyde, and trichloroethylene from the atmosphere.

    • Each tree has its own purpose and so do palms. They are meant to add decor to gardens and avenues

    • Suicide is never the only recourse left. Sadly, however, some people think that it is. When they commit suicide it’s far too late for them to say “Uumm … I changed my mind!” My prayer is that we can get to those who are contemplating such a drastic measure before they do the deed and hopefully save their life. Life is precious. It’s not something you should throw away.

      • Not being able to face what would be in store perhaps drives some towards suicide. One needs strength to overcome those fears.

    • Those who commit suicide are cowards and cannot face the darkest realities life but I think that those who have no nice friend often seen commits suicide due to severe disappointment. It is very serious matter for the parents and the government to do something for such persons and try to research its root causes roaming in the society.

      Many teens who attempt or die by suicide have a mental health condition. As a result, they have trouble coping with the stress of being a teen, such as dealing with rejection, failure, breakups and family turmoil. They might also be unable to see that they can turn their lives around — and that suicide is a permanent response, not a solution, to a temporary problem.

      I think these may be the the main causes of committing suicide as

      What are the risk factors for teen suicide?

      A teen might feel suicidal due to certain life circumstances such as:

      Having a psychiatric disorder, including depression
      Loss of or conflict with close friends or family members
      History of physical or sexual abuse or exposure to violence
      Problems with alcohol or drugs
      Physical or medical issues, for example, becoming pregnant or having a sexually transmitted infection
      Being the victim of bullying
      Being uncertain of sexual orientation
      Exposure to the suicide of a family member or friend

    Things happen in life.   One experiences various unpleasant events.  Whether it is the Nanny who poisons the child’s mind against the parent, whether it is the abusive man who uses his wife for a punching bag, o […]

    • I don’t think Jody needs to go over the “Yvette inputs”. Jody could just make a conscience decision to just start over with her mother again using a “clean slate”. Start a brand new relationship. Why not? Her mother started out their relationship in their lives when Jody was a “blank slate”.

      Any child that doesn’t give their parent honor and respect is likely going down the wrong path. That’s generally speaking. Yes there are some parents who have mistreated their children and abused them. But even they can be forgiven. Though they may have a created a “hell” for you (the child) when you were growing up under their roof, that doesn’t mean you have to stay in that hell now that you’re all grown up.

      It’s your life now. Make the best of it. Don’t carry around grudges and bad memories. That’s just an extra unnecessary burden that you’re bearing. Sure! You’re damaged goods. But you’re sill here on planet earth! Childhood under a parent or parents usually only last about 18 years. After that most people live another 40 or 50 years. What are you going to do? Spend your entire life being miserable and unhappy? Once you walked out the door of your parents’ home you took charge of yourself! Any screw ups after that … it’s on you!

      I can’t speak about an abusive relationship with a spouse from personal experience. But I dare say if you’re in a life and death situation on a daily basis, you need to run for your life!!

      • “Make Believe That Part Didn’t Happen” does not work. One can not pretend or decide to simply ‘block out’. One must confront the events. Nancy did the retrospective so that she could see how her Ex had pushed her, caused her to react, then could ‘punish her’.

        Because she realised this, having to work with him on a project she was alert to the tricks he would use. So after a pleasant first contact when she made a suggestion and he jumped on the other side, expecting her to ‘defend’ her point and open the door to his attack she didn’t. She let it go.

        This meant he had absolutely no power over her.

        Jody can not ever develope a normal relationship with her mother until she fully examines what happened.

    • Those who stuff poison of in the children’s mid are those who become tired of husband’s negative behavior no change from the marriage to children’s birth and when they grow up women think to take revenge their husband I have seen they do right things because men take interest in other women I have received from many clients of different countries that their husbands take interest in other women ignoring their real wives. How can we mend them in positive ways.

      When I make horoscope both of the I see and wonder husbands become fault and really they ignore their wives at homes and take interest in other women out of homes.

      Well the topic is quite general and can be said to be an integral part of every couples’ life. Even the happiest couples have been failed to escape the fight phase between them even though they once thought that they are the perfect couple and nothing can wrong between them

      Even though it sounds silly but it is indeed one of the main reasons of fights among couples. And in this case the patriarchy rules while they put the entire blame of taking hours to get ready on their female counterpart. While girls do manage to look stunning after hours of hard-work and ignoring with a smile all the rushes that their husbands try to put them through, yet little arguments or conflicts do take place because of this reason.

      Some might say getting insecure is over possessiveness but at times it is justified as it might just be a word of concern from your partner’s side. Understanding your partner’s point of view is also equally important which most of the couple lacks to a great extent, and that is exactly where the blame-game starts.

      • Jody never analysed, never went through the events to understand what happened, and work it out. Nancy did.

        Jody does not have a good relationship with her mother; the psychological damage is there. Nancy, having done this, was alert when her Ex tried to provoke her and came through the encounter stronger.

    • We all go through certain issues in life.difficulties are part and parcel of our lives we cannot even try to run away from it whatever we do. Parents have a really big role to play in a child’s life, And when that is not done that is when children go astray.
      And then we are always told that as parents you should always be involved in the life of your child. It’s always good to know what they are up to, who they are talking to, where they go and so on and so forth. This way you will always know if a child is going astray or if there is something wrong with them even without asking.
      Like in the case of jody , I am doubting that the mum was involved in her life. Looks like the house help did most of the things that the mother should be a been doing. From what I have read she probably had a lot of time with the kid to have been able to poison her against her own mother. She seems to have believed in her more than the mother because she was there for her more often. I feel when the child walked away to go and live with her aunt the mum should have been th3 authority there at that time and try and find the reasons why the child has taken such a drastic move, but she didn’t. The best thing that should happen right now, is not to bury the feelings of the past, but to walk path backwards with the mum and see where it all started. Then of course they will be able to find the root cause of that problem and find ways to resolve th3whole thing and get doubts out of their minds and shade off the hatred that has manifested in their lives for years. Only then will that get back to their nornal lives walking away from problems or misunderstandings never made anything better.

      • That is exactly what should be done. The mother had to work. The child, now adult, would understand that.

    One might say this quote ‘ A stitch in time saves nine’ does not hold water any more as no one stitches torn clothes or darns them any more. But it could be applied to several other areas pertaining to our day to […]

    • Yes, you say right, a stitch in time saves nine is applied in other ways these days . I think it is a proverb and is not used to darn and and stitches in clothes but it actually means if you do any work in time will save you time for other pieces of work at home and out of home.

      For if you do school work in time you will get the first position in the class because you did home work in time from the very beginning and stood first.

      The same formula is applied in all walk of life but our politicians do not stitch in time the torn clothes of country as poverty and corruption.

      I think the countries that acted upon this formula are called progressive and developed countries all over the world. while under developed countries did not stitch in time in the torn country economics clothes and backward on earth.

      Our forefathers save said all things right but modern men have forgot all their forefathers’ sayings. Some consider it old wives’ tales.

      • Yes.It is a proverb but derived from the fact that if a tear is not darned on time the tear will widen.
        We tend to procrastinate when we find any job boring but it leads to disastrous consequences.

    • It is very difficult to apply this saying. I do face the same situation. I do bookmark every site and make a long list of book marks. I do not know how to get rid of this bad habit. Hope you share something more in this connection so that it may help me sorting up my book marks.

      • I too have a long list of bookmarks. You can do one thing. Open that tab and see if any of the bookmarks have not been used at all by you, which means your enthusiasm on that particular subject has died downand you may not feel the need for it at all. You can delete such bookmarks.

    • A word stinche time save Nine have to do with a word procasination many people do procasinate when he or she surpose to apply action, for my own understanding were in the moving vehicle and you find out that the vehicle has developed falt and instead of you to stop and find out what the falt is all about and you keep on moving until the vehicle broke down, if you stop and find out what the error that vehicle you have save nine, but if you continue moving until it broke down on the way that stinch time, that is way i understand it.

    • Yes, you say right but the year you write is true. keep in mind the accurate prediction of the Fire of London was William Lilly who predicted the Fire of London in 1666 when the bad fixed star will cross the ascendant of London and according to natural law fire will break out in the city. According to William Lilly prediction fire broke at 2 September 1666.

      And it had It had destroyed 13,200 houses, 87 parish churches, 6 chapels, 44 Company Halls, the Royal Exchange, the Custom House, St Paul’s Cathedral, the Guildhall, the Bride well and other City prisons, the Session House, four bridges across the Thames and Fleet rivers, three city gates and made homeless 100,000 people, one sixth of the inhabitants.

      After this Lily was called in the King’s Court to investigate how he predicted the year of destruction. He was charged of detective but Lily said thus:

      When asked if he had foreseen in which year the fire would break out, Lilly said

      “I did not, or was desirous. Of that I made no scrutiny”.

      The Committee appeared to have been satisfied with his explanation and much to his relief, was thanked for his evidence, then dismissed.

      But had Lilly been completely honest with them? A close inspection of the hieroglyphic in question reveals that he was not.

      See Lilly’ hieroglyph of the fire

      The exact date of the worst disaster that had ever befallen London and the time, within a few hours, were secreted within the drawing … and he knew it!

      See Lilly’s horoscope for the Great Fire of London

      He also knew that he could not publish nineteen drawings without some form of explanation, nor could he resist teasing his public and especially his fellow astrologers with his secret knowledge.

      “Had the curtesie of the present times deserved it at my hands, thou hadst seene an Explanation of the sixteen Pages following, which in Aenigmaticall Types, Forms, Figures, Shapes, doth perfectly represent the future condition of the ENGLISH Nation and Commonwealth for many hundreds of years yet to come. I have borrowed so much time from my morning sleepe, as hath brought forth these Conceptions. You that read these Lines must know I doe no new thing, I doe herein but imitate the ANTIENTS, who so often as they resolved to concele their intentions from prophane hands, used HEIROGLIPHICKS, IMAGES, &C. The AEGYPTIAN PRIESTS were herein excellant, and their judgement commendable; our Savour also himself commandeth; NE DETUR SACRUM CANIBUS. If Providence shall hereafter assigne me a quiet life, and prolong my years, I may then perhaps leave unto the Sons of Art the several Changes of every Kingdome and Commonwealth in EUROPE, in such CARACTERS as these which now follow”.

    • It is fantastic to see the population of robots .. so few real people remain.

    • Every invention of man has a potential for misuse and abuse by someone. Either use the invention for good and do positive things with it or don’t. Computers, televisions, telephones, automobiles, etc.… it’s all the same. I remember when accounting spreadsheets were prepared with a calculator, a pencil and an accounting worksheet. I remember when Microsoft Excel was introduced into the workplace to do the same work I had been doing manually. I remember the typewriter and white-out. I remember typewriters with correctable tape. I remember word processors. Got the same job done only with the introduction of certain work tools, got the job done quicker. Computers are no different. Use them for good! Teach kids to use them for good! Human intelligence can never be replaced by a machine.

      • If I had a computer when I was at school, I could have done my research for my topics. I would have learned more. I could have understood why 1492, why Columbus, and tied it into the Bubonic Plague, and understood so much more. But computers weren’t invented. They are available now. Kids can have that homework and get online and get so much information.

        But they play mindless games.

    • Computer is the best invention of modern age but there are such people and students who misuse computers. They in stead of learning from computer watch pornography all day sitting at homes with friends is a wrong thinking for the children.

      Computer technology has changed the way we deal with the world, from allowing us to communicate more efficiently to giving us easier access to cat videos. Newer generations are growing up with this technology, and while it does have its benefits, primarily in education and access to information,

      it can also be detrimental to children during a very important time of growth. Too much computer use can affect children’s physiological and psychological health as well as social skills.

      Constant computer use can affect a child’s attention span and focus. While some computer games have been shown to help a child develop certain cognitive skills, many games and other forms of computer entertainment do nothing to stimulate a child’s mind.

      Constant switching between programs, games or videos makes it more difficult to focus on tasks for longer periods of time, and this can affect a student’s studies and grades. In more extreme cases, children with computer addiction will fail their classes completely.

      • I agree; computers have a very good upside. But the problem is the way they are used/abused and the fact that these aren’t learning games.

    • yes it did that to us and the whold people, computer is good and bad at the same time, the problem is like addition , i remember when i first wanted to use the pc, my friedn told me its addiction, i told her, no its not i can leave it any second i want, but now i agree she is right, i can not really leave it though it is making me laz

      The best way to make money from hobbies without spending a lot of money is to use the internet.

      I’m talking about creating a blog/website about your hobby. And making videos to show it off on Youtube will likely be a large part of your money making strategy too.

      As I go through the list, I’ll talk about a few ways to monetize each hobby so you can get an idea of what it will take to make money with it.

    Imagine parents, who love their child, searching to find a life partner.   Parents know their kids, (if you are a parent, nod, if you are kid, trust me your folks do know you).

    I am not talking about parents […]

    • For my entire life I have only known of two people in “arranged marriages”. One couple stayed together and as best I can tell are happy to be with each other. The other couple ended their marriage in divorce. Don’t know if the guy was happy but the lady was relieved. She said love never developed between them even though they had a child. She did not divorce until her son was old enough to take care of himself. So based on my observation I guess the chances for a successful arranged marriage are 50/50. 🙂

      In my circles, we don’t really want to arrange the marriages for our children but we do hope and pray they will “marry in the Lord”.

      • What I have found, (talking to people who rejected the arranged marriage) is that after making their own mistakes they realised that they had looked for the wrong traits where the parents know what is important.

    • Marriage is marriage be arranged or love marriage because if you think that marriage is a sacred ceremony and a solid process of birth for someone because you married a girl now you will marry your daughter to pay your debt of nature.

      But I want to clarify what we’re talking about when we think of “failure” in marriage. Many people might think that failure equals divorce, but for others that is not so. There are many people who stay in marriages for decades, living unhappy lives and being miserable in their relationships.

      I wouldn’t think of this as a “successful” marriage. We might call it a marriage of convenience, a union born of and sustained in fear of living separate and independent lives, or an alliance rooted in and perpetuated by certain patterns of being and relating that are deeply ingrained and that the participants are afraid to challenge much less break.

      If we look at the couple as a unit, as an organism, we might say that the couple either “succeeds” or “fails” in being able to grow, as a couple, allowing for the growth and development of each partner in the couple

      Beyond just basic email scams, there are other methods that scammers use to defraud people of their money through the Internet. Today, I would like to examine five additional Internet scams that are very commonplace, but unfortunately not quite as many people are aware of them.

      These are scams that trip up the most people every year and lead to a substantial financial loss. Take the time to read through and understand these scams so that you never find yourself a victim of them.

      I remember watching a documentary a few years ago that detailed how scammers, usually located in third world countries, set up computer clusters connected to the Internet and send out thousands of Nigerian scam emails every day.

      The name of the scam comes from the original form of this scam, which consisted of emails outlining a situation in Nigeria that required a massive transfer of money from that country into the United States for safety. For assisting with the money transfer, the recipient of the email is promised a percentage of the transfer amount, usually totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars to a few million.

      The second most common Internet scam is email phishing. Dean mentioned this in his article (fake links in emails to banks or Paypal), and MUO covered SonicWALL, which can detect phishing emails. However, did you know that even if you don’t click on a fake link and you follow the advice to type in your bank or Paypal’s URL directly into the browser, that the site could still be counterfeit?

      It’s true. If you visit the wrong website or download the wrong file from an infected email attachment, you could end up with malware on your PC that specifically targets a browser security flaw. Internet Explorer seems to be the most vulnerable to these. The Malware basically re-routes your browser URL query to a different page than the domain that you typed in.

    If we go back to 1970, for example, we will find most major cities having various poor neighbourhoods.  Whether called slums or ghettoes the rental paid for a flat was very low.

    The areas were high crime/must […]

    • it is bad enough when perfectly capable people lose their job and have to sustain from country help, but to lose your home is terrible. If low rents are alternative i am completely for this solution, but even if home is for free until people find solution it should not be some disgusting hole filled with rats. Sometimes homeless have no blame in losing homes, there was situations in which contractor in failure took flats or apartments and people we re forced to live wherever.

      • A slum, a cheap slum was turned into a decent neighbourhood without any consideration of what happened to the people.

    I only say it because support mentioned that even if articles are just around 300 words they could earn more than 15 cents. The only time I earned more than 15 cents was when I posted longer posts which is quite rare.
