39) Living life without a friend like you would be like celebrating Christmas without Santa Claus or Easter without a chocolate bunny. Thanks for making my life a true celebration.

12 Powerful Gratitude Practices That Bring Joy

“Piglet noticed that even though he had a Very Small Heart, it could hold a rather large amount of Gratitude.”
~A. A. Milne

Gratitude didn’t come naturally to me. If there had been a championship for complaining, I would have been a serious contender.

For years I felt entitled to everything, including the kindness of others. This didn’t make me very happy, since it was always easy to find something or someone to complain about. The more critical I grew, the less appealing life seemed and the worse I got on with others.

The weather seemed awful, supermarket queues too slow, bosses too unappreciative, children too rowdy and messy, winters too cold, summers too hot, health too unsatisfactory, work too stressful, prices too high, quality too low, TV too boring, politicians too self-serving, traffic too slow, drivers too inconsiderate, and so on.

If I had continued living like that, I might have ended up complaining that water was too wet and the sky too blue.

Fortunately, I came across countless research studies about gratitude. How it reduced anxiety , depression, emotional exhaustion, and even suicidal thoughts, while boosting happiness and satisfaction with life. How it lowered blood pressure, boosted immunity, and encouraged healthy habits while improving sleep.

Research even suggested that gratitude improved the quality of romance and marriage! Now that seemed like an irresistible offer.

I started collecting practical tips for living in a more grateful way, and started trying them out. Warning: these ways of practicing gratitude could seriously damage your unhappiness!

1. Tell your partner exactly how a recent episode made you love them even more.

Be very specific and detailed. For example, “I love that you thought about what I would really like for our anniversary, and that you made all the bookings because you know it takes me ages to pick a hotel.”

It doesn’t have to be in connection with an annual event, such as an anniversary. It could be something as small as the way they hug you to cheer you up when they see that you’ve had a hard day. But tell them exactly what it is you loved about that, and why.

This detailed expression of gratitude signals your responsiveness to your partner. It tends to make them more responsive too. Romance thrives on mutual responsiveness.

2. If your relationship is going through a rough patch, imagine the disappearance of your partner.

This is counter-intuitive, but it makes you more grateful for all that is good in the relationship. People who suddenly

lost their partner often tell of how relatively insignificant their petty disagreements now seem. They often say they would give anything to have their loved one back.

If I even think about trying this, it immediately makes me way more grateful for my partner. It makes me realize how lucky I am.

3. Look beyond a gift.

Think consciously about the trouble that somebody took to bring something good into your life, often at some inconvenience and cost to themselves.

We enjoy watching Grand Slam tennis tournaments on TV.

We thought that we might one day get to watch a tournament in person, but tickets for the main courts sell out rapidly. Then our son surprised us with tickets for
prime seats at a Grand Slam event.

It was totally unexpected. We were so touched that he went to all the trouble and expense. The tennis and setting were magnificent, and the awareness of his love even better.

4. Relish each good moment more consciously.

Have you noticed, really consciously noticed, the many patterns that bubbles make in a warm bath? Or the bizarre

shapes of white clouds in a blue sky? Or the quirky way that an eggshell starts to crack when you strike it? Or the comforting feel of your pillow when you go to bed after a long, hard day?

Wonderful little delights await us, moment by moment. But we need to notice them consciously. Then gratitude starts flowing through each moment of life.

I fill a pan with water every morning, to boil some eggs. I love watching the bubbles in the water as they dance for me. It helps to set the tone for my day.

5. Shout for joy when something really good happens to you.

I used to be an expert in misery.

Did I gain admission to medical school? Keep it quiet, I don’t do happiness.

Was I graduating and did my parents want to celebrate?

Don’t bother coming, Mum and Dad, it’s just another day.

What was I thinking? If I could go back and shake myself hard, I would.

“Shout for joy!” I would urge my younger self. “Get up, put on your favorite song, jump around and dance like a wild child!”

Whatever you celebrate becomes more real to your mind.

And you become more grateful for it.

6. Fast forward.

When we got married, the photographer made us pose endlessly. We were relieved when it was over. In our relief, we leaned in for a kiss.

The experienced photographer immediately clicked it.

I remember thinking, “That photo’s going to make us so happy when we’re old.”

That peek into the future made me feel even luckier in the moment.

Use every opportunity to create memories that will delight you for years. You’ll feel grateful in the moment, and grateful again that you can look forward to good memories.

7. Tell someone else when you’re particularly taken by something.

We get to see some spectacular sunsets in the summer. I just have to go to our picture window and look out over rooftops. It’s as if a great artist has splashed colors across the sky.

“Wow!” I’ll call out, spontaneously. “Come and look at this!

Isn’t it stunning?”

Sharing the appreciation with someone else makes you more grateful.

8. Introduce a guest to your favorite places, people, music, food etc.

There’s a reason why you love some things so much.

Somebody else might not yet appreciate those delights. In opening their eyes, you open your own eyes again and become more grateful.

I love it when visitors stay with us, partly because I get to show them around some favorite spots. There’s one place where a man-made canal crosses high over a river with an old mill, and green hillsides with sheep climb steeply skyward. I could spend hours there, just soaking it all in.

Sometimes my guests will even notice details that I missed. Their delight multiplies my own.

9. Build a bank of gratitude.

Life won’t necessarily go your way forever. If adversity strikes, it can be difficult to recall a time when you were grateful.

Build a bank of gratitude by storing notes, pictures, and other documents about what you were thankful for.

Mine includes lots of pictures of sunsets, family, travels, and nature, and notes regarding some kindness shown to me, little improvements in my health and fitness, and things I achieved. I even store some notes about difficult times that made me wiser and stronger, and about
unhelpful people whose behavior inadvertently helped me in some way.

If you like to write on paper, you can choose a beautiful notebook and write in it each day. It shouldn’t be too difficult to find a few things you’re grateful for. If you get stuck, you can express thanks for being spared some undesirable things (life in a war zone, for example, or a
disabling illness.)

If you prefer to write on pieces of paper, you could collect these papers in a big gratitude jar. It will delight you more than a jar of sweets delights a little child.

If life ever gets on top of you and your mind is filled with complaints, you can visit your bank of gratitude to regain a sense of perspective. Gratitude and joy need never be too far away.

10. Invite someone to be your gratitude buddy.

If your partner is a naturally grateful person, you don’t have to look far. You can encourage and coach one another in
living more gratefully.

Even then, you might like to invite a trusted confidante to join you in the conscious practice of gratitude. You can
make a pact to practice one or more of these tips at least once a day, and encourage each other when you slip.

Sharing your practice in this way helps to make gratitude a habit and a new way of living.

I’m fortunate to have a naturally grateful partner, but I do enjoy sharing my gratitude practices with others. Then I
have to live up to what I proclaim.

11. Be aware of how gratitude feels in your body.

When you regularly practice gratitude, you start to feel a kind of joy in your body. It’s like a homecoming, as if you’re relaxing into a warm bath after shivering outside in the freezing winter of complaints.

Be conscious of how your limbs, your hands, your feet, your neck, your body, your face and your gut feel when you’re
expressing gratitude. Take a couple of minutes to meditate on the sensations.

Enjoy the glow of gratitude and add it to
your list of things you’re grateful for.

12. Widen your net of gratitude to include more people.

Did you have a favorite teacher? What was it you loved about them? What effect did they have on your life?

One of my big regrets in life is that my first music teacher died before I could properly thank him. He taught me a wonderful approach to musical composition. I use what he taught me almost every day, and music-making brings me so much joy in life.

Think of all the people who contributed to your life. Thank them, one by one. Write to them, phone them, email them, visit them, do anything that works, but be sure to thank them.

Be as detailed and as specific as you can. Show them how much you understand their good intentions and effort. Let them know exactly what their contribution means in your life.

That will make them glow. And it will make you glow.

Express gratitude to people at every opportunity. It strengthens the bonds of goodwill and connection on which
we humans thrive. It allows us to be part of something bigger than ourselves, and to attempt good and important things as we join others in working for meaningful causes.

Of course, gratitude is not always appropriate. Sometimes there are very good reasons for dissatisfaction and
complaint, such as in abusive relationships. Even there, a habitually grateful person can sometimes more easily find solutions because they are more warmly connected to people who can help out.

—
I like these simple practices because they’re relatively easy to do, yet they bring huge benefits. They’ve opened the door to a much more joyful way of living for me. I now experience much warmer relationships with my loved ones and others.

We know from neuroscience that what we do habitually can change even our brains. I used to be a champion complainer. Now I’m steadily improving at practicing gratitude.

If these practices work for me, a complainer by instinct, then they can work for anyone.

I’d love to hear what gratitude practices you’ve found useful. Let’s add to the list of practices and spread the joy. Thanks for the privilege of writing for you.

SAVE THE VAGINA NOW!!!

To maintain a healthy vagina you must know what to do to avoid infection and it is equally important to educate your sexual partner on some of them to also help you help the vagina.

Here are some few things you can do or avoid.

1.Fingering

During foreplay or romance, as part of it some people insert their finger or fingers into the vagina. The question is, how many people wash their hands before sexual intercourse? Some people do not even keep their nails clean so it gathers a lot of germs and during the fingering,
these germs are deposited in the vagina...leading to infection. Same thing apply to autopleasure acts or masturbation.

2. Anal sex

I am not here to tell anybody to have anal sex or not to but I simply want to draw the attention of those who engage in anal sex with the opposite sex that it is dangerous to have anal sex and continue having penovaginal sex. If this is done, the penis will pick bacteria from the anus and deliver them to the vagina even if you
are using a condom....which will lead to infection.

3. Quest to make the vagina TIGHT

Some guys complain bitterly about the vagina of their sexual partners. They complain that it's too big and they no more feel any sensation during intercourse. Some ladies are therefore pushed to find a quick solution and in
the process some use herbs or other substances in the vagina with the hope of making the vagina tight. Some of the substances cause infection or sepsis. Some of the herbs can cause the vagina to get tighter to the extent that penetration is no more possible. This will
require treatment.

4. Douching

Some parents, when bathing for their baby girls put warm water in a milk tin or dip a towel in the warm water and pour the water through a hole made beneath the tin or squeeze the water out of the towel into the vagina of the baby. This is so WRONG as it can damage the hymen.

Some parents also insert ginger or pepper or both into the vagina of adolescents as a form of punishment. This is so WRONG as it can lead to infection.

Some people are use to bathing by adding dettol or other detergents to the water and they put this solution inside
the vagina with the help of sponge or towel or just the hand with soap to clean the vagina. This is so WRONG as it will change the normal flora in the vagina, leading to infection.

5. Use of water closet

Some people have the habit of not sitting on the seat of the WC when using it so they end up urinating on the seat.

The possibility of picking infection when using it in that condition is high. Don't let your pant be at the thigh level when using the WC especially the public ones as the inner of the pant may rub the surface of the WC. Where the water is not running and people have used but have not flushed and you don't have any choice but to also use it, use enough toilet roll to cover before using the WC to avoid
any splashes on the vulva.

6. Washing and drying

Develop the habit of disinfecting your panties frequently...depending on the number of pants you have.

Keep exclusive panties to wear whenever you are menstruating and don't mix those panties with your regular panties. Pay particular attention to those panties when
washing. Ensure that the panties are made of cotton and are dried in the sun or well ironed to kill germs.

7. Change sanitary pads

Some people try to economize the use of their sanitary pads so during the period they tend to still wear the pad because there is little or no blood. This is so WRONG as it can lead to infection.

NB: If there is any bad scent from the vagina or there is a discharge coming from the vagina then it might be an
infection which you have to have it treated.

Help save the vagina by ensuring that you get the message to as many friends as possible. Help save the vagina by getting the message to your sexual partner or
sisters.

9 Tips for Anyone Who Dates Emotionally Unavailable People

“When someone tells you who they are, believe them.”
~Maya Angelou

After having been a rebound girl the summer of 2013, I swore I would never get involved with another emotionally unavailable man who had baggage and was a poor communicator.

I thought I was a pro at all of the tell tale signs. Until I met X in 2015.

He came on very strong in the beginning, telling me he deleted his dating app after our first date, that he turned down other dates because he didn’t want to waste time with other girls, and showed me in more ways than one that I was his priority.

Things were too good to be true.

Things were at the height of our relationship, and I use this word loosely because it really wasn’t a relationship.

After a heavy night of drinking he confessed that he was scared to get into another relationship because he
associates them with pain and feeling trapped. He admitted that he puts up walls, shuts down, and he just couldn’t bear to go through another break-up again.

We hadn’t even made it official and he was talking about breaking up. He told me he didn’t want to lose me, nor did he want his baggage to ruin what we had. He would give this a try.

This lasted for all of about twenty-four hours when he ended it. Poof. Gone.

Sucker punch to the gut.

How can someone do a 180 overnight? It dawned on me that he probably had one foot out the door the entire time.

Why did I, yet again, get ahead of myself and trust someone that I barely knew?

When I saw him on a dating site six weeks after the split (after him telling me earlier that he didn’t want to see other people; he just wasn’t ready for a relationship), I panicked.

I confronted him about it and he took no accountability for ending things the way he did. He has convinced himself that he is being honest with me. He became hostile and angry that I contacted him.

I came to realize he will find another awesome girl and do the same thing to her to fill his void of being alone Lather. Rinse. Repeat I sent myself in to a six-week black hole, and I will never get those six weeks back. I always thought of myself as someone who had high self-esteem , but I began questioning why I was upset over someone who shut me
out so intensely and quickly.

Why was I upset about someone whose opinion of me, quite frankly, doesn’t matter? The people whose opinions
matter are the ones who have actually stood by me through thick and thin.

Here’s what I learned through my pain:

1. Don’t put someone on a pedestal.
They are not perfect and you will always be disappointed if you continue to do so.

2. Take time to get to know someone before jumping to conclusions about your future.

It’s through tough times when you get to know someone the most, not when things are good.

3. Trust your gut instincts.
Even if he or she seems to be doing everything “right,” sometimes you need to trust your gut and use your head.

4. You will be okay.
I have gone through this before, and I will go through heartache again. Each time I pick up the pieces of my broken heart I learn a little bit more about who I am, what I deserve, and what I am capable of giving someone. I can rest my head each night knowing I stayed true to myself,
and you can too.

5. You can’t fix anyone.
I have learned this many times, the hard way. Trying to fix someone else chips away at your soul. Worry about yourself and let them figure themselves out when they are ready.

6. Just because a romantic relationship failed, that doesn’t mean you are a failure.
I look at the many healthy relationships I have in my life with friends, family, and coworkers, who choose to be in my life and are always there for me. I don’t want to be in anyone’s life that doesn’t want me in it.

7. Don’t apologize for having feelings.
I truly believe being able to express emotions is a sign of strength, not weakness. Anyone who is incapable of
accepting or reciprocating feelings is missing out on one of the most rewarding gifts in life.

8. Don’t ignore red flags.
Looking back, I saw the flags and never raised questions because my heart was in too deep. I would have saved myself a lot of time if I had the confidence to speak up.

9. Be upfront early on about what you want.
If the other person is intimidated or scared and runs away, better early on then months or years down the road. Don’t assume they feel the same way as you do.

I have so much to offer, and you do too. But some people just aren’t open to receiving it. So long as we’re willing to
acknowledge that and move on, we’ll find the love we’re looking for.

When We Hold onto Relationships That Hurt Us

“Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it’s better to leave them broken than hurt yourself trying to put it back
together.” ~Unknown

Human beings are genetically programmed to desire love. Embraces are as important to us as food and water.

Perhaps that’s why when we find someone—the wrong someone—we’re often too blind to see it.

We feel it and yet we hide it away, write it off as an odd case of commitment phobia or just a hiccup in our new relationship, oblivious to the fact that were heading into a future of sleepless nights, constant worrying, and consistent phone checking.

Even when every hidden fiber within us tells us to walk away, we stay.

I recently experienced something similar. We first met back in high school, different people from completely different worlds. He was the guy that had all the friends; I
was shy and quiet.

Fast forward five years and we meet again. This time he’s in pre-law and I’m a writer trying to figure out her calling.

We meet for drinks, coffee, a movie here and there, and before you know it we’re walking hand in hand. I’ve met his friends, his parents, even his grandparents. To someone on the outside, this looks like something every
healthy couple would do, except we weren’t healthy—far from it.

He always had his phone, and yet my texts remained unanswered. He only wanted to hang out on occasional evenings, routinely made plans without following through on them, was never where he said he was, yet still referred to me as his girlfriend when we met someone he knew.

He was a guy that sucked at communicating, and I was the girl that needed it.

He was physical, I emotional. He wanted convenience; I wanted something that swept me off my feet.

It was a relationship doomed from the start; I was just too stubborn to see it.

I would find myself constantly asking for advice, yet always heard the same thing over and over. Get out of there. Leave. My excuses remained the same. He works all day. He’s busy. I just wasn’t ready to admit the truth to myself. Ignorance at its finest.

Even when I had the courage to bring up the things that bothered me, somehow he’d challenge all my worries.

“I’m just not a texter,” he’d say. “I prefer conversations face to face.” Of course, there’s nothing wrong with that response. It was the dishonesty I felt behind it.

I didn’t feel like I was in a relationship, yet he’d confirm that we were. He seemed to know exactly what to say to get me to stay.

I couldn’t see that I was the only one putting in the effort.

I made sure I was always there for him when he needed me, listened to him, even surprised him at work with coffee, putting myself out there, hoping that he would one day reciprocate.

He only talked about himself during our conversations, and when it came time for me to share, he seemed distant and uninterested in what came out of my mouth.

He was bound to a different city in the fall, and with his lack of communicating there was a deep nagging feeling that it was only a short time before I had my heart broken again.

I had wanted a relationship to work out so bad that I had chosen to ignore all the warning signs that this one wasn’t right.

Even when he left for a month and I suspected he’d cheat on me, I still stayed. Why? I could only draw one conclusion: I had been treated like that so many times before, I expected it. And I believed it was all I had to look forward to.

Though I tried to explain to myself that I deserved so much better, I wasn’t willing to hear it.

But one day I surprised myself. I became more independent. I began to pull away from him. His texts would go unanswered for hours; my obedience to go to him whenever he called began to wane.

I stopped initiating conversations and instead sat back and began to enjoy all the things I had ignored. I made a list of things I had always wanted to do and did them. It kept my mind off things and opened my eyes to the truth.

As the time passed, I would like to think, he became the one that needed me; he had just realized it too late.

I questioned whether or not he had treated me that way because he knew I would always be there for him; then,
when I no longer was, he wanted that same caring person back. Had I been nothing but a convenience for him the
entire time? I couldn’t wrap my head around it.

When it came time for me to explain, my answer was simple: My gut knew it wasn’t going to work from day one, but falling head over heels for him at first, I chose to ignore it.

I guess I just wanted so badly for things to work out I didn’t bother to think about how unhappy I was; I chose to mask all hurt with a small smile and laughter.

Life can be confusing and cruel sometimes, but a fantasy can’t hide the truth, no matter how badly you want it to.

No one deserves to be pushed to sidelines, to feel like second best. If there’s something telling you to stay away, if even the smallest of your radars begin to go off, walk away.

Leave knowing that you dodged a barrage of emotional bullets instead of realizing you had to fight to keep your
head afloat to keep from drowning.

If someone wants to be in your life, you shouldn’t have to change anything about yourself to keep them.

If they are willing to get to know you, they will. Period. All the wrong people may step into your life, and each one will no doubt leave their own emotional scars, but when the right one comes? You’ll know. You’ll feel it. I was lucky enough to have a best friend who stuck by me even when I chose to ignore all her warnings. When I finally realized my mistake, she simply smiled and asked if I wanted to watch the newest horror movie.

Friends like that are so important to have in your life. Coming from a hopeless romantic who prefers books and
writing to real people, this was hard to admit.

I can only say that when another man comes around I’ll be taking it slow.

For all the friends out there, even if you don’t agree, just be with them for every upsetting phone call and annoyed text.

Your non-judgmental support might just be the reason they realize they could have something better.

We all need to learn for ourselves in order to truly grow.

Even as much as we would like to save someone from the heartache they will no doubt experience, we need to take a step back, wait, and console them when they need it.

To the boys and or girls reading, realize what you have while you have it, because there’s nothing worse than finding out when it’s too late.
