What Is The Difference Between Depression And Clinical Depression -
Susan Thom (9,936)     
Susan Thom   
I have battled with both kinds of depression, and these are my opinions. Everyone is different, and should see a doctor if they are having any of the symptoms I will be mentioning. Have you ever gone to see a movie, and walked out of the theater crying? "Brian's Song" is one of those movies, or... ( added 6 days 6 hours ago.) |
Blind Devotion -
Dianne Lehmann (4,729)  
Dianne Lehmann
A woman walks up to her local 99 cent store. She has been there at least a hundred times before. She pushes on the front door to enter the shop and the door does not open. In the past, it has always opened when she pushed on it. She pulls out her cell phone and checks the time. Yes, she is there... ( added 12 days 10 hours ago.) |
Who Do You Consider A Friend -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
We have many "acquaintances" throughout our lives, but there are very few people special enough to be a "true friend." The requirements are selfless and exhausting at times. Acquaintances receive the old, "I'm fine" when asked how we are? A true friend gets every detail until they feel they were... ( added 14 days 6 hours ago.) |

20 Things To Ponder -
Robin Newman (478)  
Robin Newman
You cannot think 2 thoughts at once so if you are thinking happy thoughts you cannot be thinking sad, angry, miserable, jealous or grumpy ones. You cannot change someone else into being what you want them to be but you can change yourself into what you want to be. There is no point having a day... ( added 7 days 10 hours ago.) |
We All Must Learn How To Be Alone -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
Isolation can either be devastating, or peaceful. And the emotions involved start as early as birth. We, as parents, have to do our part to soothe a baby and make them feel safe and comfortable, while they are alone in their playpen or crib. Dinner has to be made, carpets need to be vacuumed...

Do You Do Things For The Good Of All Involved -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
I don't ever remember my mother telling me to make my decisions based on "for the good of all involved." She believed in the concept, but used her own words. I wasn't introduced to this particular saying until I went into a twelve step program. I have to admit, it was a little foreign to me. And... ( added 10 days 22 hours ago.) |

How An Ugly Duckling Became a Swan -

Over the past 40-plus years as a journalist and marketing communication consultant, I have frequently been told that I am an exceptionally good writer by teachers, friends, colleagues, and clients. But I wasn't always a good writer; in fact, I used be a very bad one.

Opinions And The Truth Aren't Always The Same -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
Everyone has their own opinions of any given set of events. A fly ball hits someone's foot, and bounces into another's hands. The person who's foot was touched, thinks they are rightfully the owner of the ball. However, the person with the ball in their hands, will see it differently. Everyone's...

Who Do You Think You Are -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
We are taught to have manners when we are young. "Yes please, no thank you." We're told to have respect for our elders, and never answer them back.

Inner Peace Tip - Taking Responsibility.. -
- Catherine VanWetter (98) 
Catherine VanWetter
I don't follow the news much these days, partly because I have been aware of how I am affected by all of the negative spin that has been put on what is happening globally. With that in mind, I have made a conscious choice to be very deliberate in what I do watch, learning to put everything into... ( added 1 day 6 hours ago.) |
New Ideas About Retirement -
Steve Gillman (10,239) 
The very concept of retirement is flawed. It is based on several false premises. First is the premise that at a certain age you are no longer able to provide economic value. That is clearly nonsense as shown by the many millionaire entrepreneurs and business people in the sixties, seventies and... ( added 12 days 9 hours ago.) |
There's More To The Law Of Attraction Than Just Thinking Positively -

Maria Meiners
I hate to break it to you but the Law of Attraction is NOT about positive thinking . This is a myth that pervades Law of Attraction thinking and confuses a lot of people. I want to clear it up right now.

How To Master Any Kind Of Information And Be An Expert -
Martin Mak (227) 
What makes a successful speaker or a seminar leader? What makes some people so engaging when they speak on the podium on a subject?

Are you heading the RIGHT way ? -
- Desmond Chua (11)
Did you remember the time when you took the wrong bus? You did not hesitate any longer; you quickly pressed the bell and alight, right? How about your career? Is it heading in the right way? If not, why are you letting the driver taking you to a destination you did not want to go?

- Yangki Christine Akiteng (107,138)  
Yangki Christine Akiteng
To be cross-culturally competent one needs to have had some international experience -- travelled extensively and experienced different cultures.

The Grass Is Still Green -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
Nature is such a constant reminder of the flexibility and resilience of the spirit. No matter what kind of day or week we may be having, the grass is still green, and the sky remains a brilliant blue. It's almost maddening at times.

Avis Ward
Lately, I've encountered some disagreeable people. I know you have heard this before: "Opinions, everyone has one." It may not be exactly as you've heard it before but close, correct?

What Happens When Your Mind Goes Beyond What Is Capable -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
It's so nice when things are running smoothly, and we are taking the time to enjoy life, our homes, and our families.

I May Slip, I May Fall, But I WILL Get Up -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
It's very difficult for those who have never suffered from severe depression, to fully understand what it's like. It isn't laziness, number one. It is the inability to motivate one's self to accomplish any task, due to stress and a depressed mindset. The mind is split in two. One part wants to... ( added 340 days 8 hours ago.) |
Why I Want To Write -

It May Simply Be Your Perception -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
I was out driving one day, and I noticed a coiled up black snake in the road. It appeared to be dead since it wasn't moving. For some reason, it intrigued me to the point of opening my door to take a look. It turned out to be a piece of rope. I smiled to myself as I realized that one's perception...

Where Will The Pendulum Stop -
Susan Thom (9,936)
Susan Thom
As we go through situations in life, how often do we wonder where the pendulum will stop, or rather, when will our bad luck end?
