Does your heart rule your head?

the heart of the matter...


its always hard to deal with matters of the heart, yet many of us face these types of predicaments everyday..our heart tells us to do something and our head tells us to do something else...now many of us have been told to follow what our hearts say in emotional situations and follow what our heads say in non-emotional situations...what if that line is blurred...what if you had to pull the plug on the person you loved the most...would you leave that attached to the machine because your heart wants them there, physically, or would you pull the plug because your head tells you that doing so will end their suffering...at this point what would you do???

from personal experience i have always found that if i lead with my heart i will be content with the outcome...

solely for enjoyments sake...

the GROWTH for GREEN



we're all being bombarded about "going green" and its exciting to see how this trend is effecting everything in our lives..from light bulbs, to energy saving vehicles, to organic product, the thrive to "go green" is swiftly sweeping the world. slowly things will begin to change and we will live in a healthier and energy efficient world. the only sad thing is that it took the impending destruction of the environment for us to begin to view the way that we are destroying the world around us...

the cost of style..




everyone wants to be stylish and in style yet something i never seem to understand is how far people are willing to go to be in style...people drop hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in luxury handbags, expensive jewellery, and designer clothing to fit in and be stylish..even lower end store are creating clothing and axccessories that are are more stylish and trend driven...its scary to think that people will spend a month's rent on a pair of shoes, or go into debt to buy what everyone else has..i mean i fall into the same boat, we all have at some point, but honestly how much worse is it going to get.. i know people that are literally thousands of dollars in credit card debt because they feel the need to buy the expensive things that others...i guess we're all wrapped around the fingers of celebrities and mass media...

Situational Religion



the world has had countless wars based solely on difference of religion...and many of these wars happened due to the lack of respect and understanding of others and their beliefs. many people wonder why Muslims allow polygamy as part of their religion, or why Hindus believe in a caste system..all one needs to do is look at the history of these religions to find that the answer lies in the fact that these things are a form of situational religious practices...back in the early days, Muslim villages had very few men in ratio to the number of women..so in order to provide care to these women, men had 3 or 4 wives...time moves on and culture blends with religion to create the misconception that we all see...Hindu's face a similar situation...the Aryan race viewed themselves as greater than the non-Aryans...hence they created the caste system depending upon the individuals closeness, ancestrally, to the Aryan race...again culture merged with religion and the caste system became confused with Hinduism...

the bottom line is that all religions share the same values and beliefs, specifically about loving one another, its only the cultural situations that alter religious beliefs...LOVE ALL, SERVE ALL

what professionalism really means....



its funny to hear people talk about the fact that they only want to marry a lawyer, a doctor, or someone that hold a high position is a dominant profession...in many cases our parents want us to marry a person like a doctor or lawyer because they believe that those are the only people that can take care of us...but is that what "professionalism" is has started to become to a certain extent...we only get jobs that extude a professional title so that we can have everything we want including a person that is just marrying us for what we have...and then there are those people that are so career driven that they're 35 and alone because they never made the time to socialize or date..these are the people that end up depending on their title to get them a mate...its funny just to realize and witness....
