Women and Self Esteem

Image
Women please love each other! Encourage one another..! Uplift one another! Stand for each other... Support one another!  80% of the average woman you see walk right past you is depressed and struggling with Self esteem! You must learn to love yourself first before you can love someone else.... Oh how wonderful the world would be when women learn to stand up for each other like the men would do! The guys would always stand up for each other amidst the difficulties! Ain't we stronger?  Rather than indulge in all sorts of malice, backbiting, envy and pulling down, why can't we do better and be better!  You can't pull someone else down just so you can rise above them.. Older Ladies with low self esteem would always hate the sight of a young good-looking lady. Rather than appreciate them, they make all sorts of excuses to pull them down. How beautiful the world will be when we just simply learn to love.  Practical steps to building your self este

Date Palm..

Dates are so amazing!! I used to think of them as been too sweet for my taste buds until I got to learn more about this amazing fruit from Suleiman..This fruit has countless benefits ranging from been a great natural aphrodisiac to been an awesome protector of the Heart.. I once read an article titled'' Dates: The World's number one food against Heart Attacks, Hypertension, Stroke and Cholesterol... I found it very interesting! Dates are packed with lots of nutrients and as seen in the picture below, Here are some of the reasons why you should eat dates.. Judging from the percentage of fat contained in a date palm, it is unarguably an ideal snack for weight watchers amidst other awesome benefits.. I guess it's ideal to say we ought not to worry so much about the sweet taste since the percentage calorie is less than 13% which in my opinion could be seen as irrelevant when placed in comparison with their other tremendous nutritional values.

Compulsive lying Disorder..

Image
   I'll be blogging about a condition that describes someone to be a pathological liar. We all have that one friend who does nothing but tell lies. Sadly for some of these people, it's not intentional while for others it is. Just before you walk away from such a pal, i would want to ask if you've ever considered the fact that they may be suffering from a disorder... Compulsive liars find comfort in lying as they tend to do this with so much ease even when the truth is staring right back at them. People with this attitude have a personality disorder and are in dire need of help although most times they do not see the need to get help. What would you do if someone around you was a pathological liar? Would you stop hanging out with them? or would you try to reform the person by talking it out with them? or would you simply live on with the person knowing that every word that ever proceeded from their mouth were all lies? I have had friends who never told the truth for once
