Windows To The Soul


When you go to an optometrist nowadays the machinery they use can quickly reveal any health problem you may have. But is this new?
My Grandma used to say that my eyes were the window to my soul. When she looked into my eyes they told her everything she needed to know about me.
In other words she would argue that our eyes are the most powerful communication system we have. They bring in information. And enable us to make sense of the world. However they also give out information. They tell other people about you.
Just stop for a moment. Think about the people you met yesterday.
Who do you feel was uncomfortable or unhappy?
Who do you feel was happy and enjoying themselves?
How did you get this information? Did they tell you or did you just pick it up?
You can gain so much information from people's eyes. Sometimes the messages from the mouth and the eyes match and then you are in no doubt about what is going on. And this enables you to build a trusting relationship.
But a large number of people, especially in work, send different messages from their eyes and their mouth. This causes you to feel uncomfortable and not trust what is being said to you.
The bottom line is: whatever you are thinking is transmitted in your eyes.
If you are thinking negative thoughts about the world and yourself then the eyes tell us that.
If you are thinking encouraging or affectionate thoughts then the eyes tell us that also.
Think about the Mona Lisa painting for a moment.
Is it the smile that gets you or the eyes? Is the picture so powerful because the eyes and the mouth are in synch? I wonder what she was thinking about when she sat for this portrait. Or was the thought in the artist's mind.
It's strange isn't it that we can see it in others but not ourselves. When all is not well within us we think that we can con the world that everything is OK.
What about you. Do you try to deceive people by thinking one thing and showing another? How many times have you said, "I'm fine" or "Very well thank you" when inside you are really unhappy?
It's interesting isn't it that although the eyes are the window of the world they are run by our thoughts. Have you ever thought about that?
What you think determines what you reveal to the world. If you think negative thoughts then you feel uncomfortable and your eyes show it.
Don't just take what we say on trust try it.
Think about someone you don't like. Think for a moment about them and what it is they have done to you. Why you dislike them so much.
Now look at your feelings. What do you feel? When I do this I get the feelings of anger, upset, and frustration. All the emotions that take away my energy and make me tired.
Now think of someone you really like. Someone very special to you. Do you feel that smile coming across your face. Do you feel the lightness in your being?
Now you can feel the energy recharging you and making you feel good.
And we bet your eyes are glistening too. We bet you've got happy eyes.
In a nutshell, the way you talk to yourself is shown every minute in your eyes. In the way you present yourself to the world. Why waste energy and your power by talking negatively to yourself? Stop thinking about how bad you are. How useless you are. How incompetent you are.
Instead, think about how good you are. Think about your successes. Think about your good deeds. Think about how lucky you are. Focus on your strengths. Focus on what you like about yourself.
Go on compliment yourself, we will all see a different you and your life will change.
It's that simple. We promise.
Go on try for just a couple of minutes and discover your power.
The way you talk to yourself is so important.
"The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."
(Marcel Proust)
Good Luck

Showering Together is it Sexy?


Although I'm not one to study hydroprghics, I do believe that I understand the lure that water has over the human psyche. After all, it is abundant in natural organic lubricant that can only be described as "wet." I don't know about you but that certainly screams intriguing to me. However, does that necessarily mean it is sexy? Water is one thing, and so is a shower, but what about sex in the shower? Is this favorite past time as overused as the dollar bill? Or is soap on a rope, and a shower enclosure for two, still as red hot as a stocking on a long leg housed in a stiletto heel?
I the chick gab chick believe that showers are still as sexy and exciting as perms in the eighties. I mean honestly, who can argue that this self-contained fun house isn't just a perfect pleasure palace? It has all the essentials for a sexual sensation. Organic matter, an abundance of wetness, and a self-cleaning mode. Not to mention the obvious lack of formal wear required while enjoying this fiberglass or acrylic vault. Yes, I believe that the shower is still a great place to have a sexual adventure. It is rustic yet sophisticated enough for even the most pampered of people.
The shower is a multi tool that not only gets things clean but can also keep things nice and dirty. With a resume like that, the shower is one bed down hot spot that will never go out of style.
Chickgab is where men and women go to laugh about love and sex. Laugh out loud funny you are sure to have a good time when you visit. http://www.chickgab.com

Is Football Season Almost Over?



It's NFL playoff season and the Super Bowl is coming up, which only means one thing for many American women - their guys disappear over the weekend doing nothing but watching football. It can be frustrating to deal with an absent boyfriend or husband, so what's a girl to do to deal with this situation?
First, like much of the other advice imparted in this site, it is important to set parameters. You don't want to try to control or change your guy... his interest in sports is a normal part of the testosterone pumping through his body. You never want to try to impose you will on your partner... like always communication is the guy. Find out when the game starts and when the game ends, and then let him be for that period of time under the caveat that he partakes in his relationship with you prior to and after the game. Compromise is the key and communicating your way to an understanding will get you through. Once he's watching the game, do your own thing or stay and watch, but don't bother him with non-football related conversation or any other activities during this time. Remember, this is his time to do what he wants. Make plans to do something with your friends and agree on when and where you will get together. After the game, however, his attention is back on you (if that's what you agreed upon), not on checking the internet on his phone or making calls to his bookie or whatever.
Most likely you have absolutely no interest in watching all the football games with your guy. But he's probably not that interested in some of your hobbies either. And that's ok. As long as both of you give each other proper space and can define what times are to be spent together and what times are to be spent apart, football season will be gone in a breeze.

New Years Resolutions a List to Get You Started



As the new year approaches, it is time to look back over the past year and decide what you want to change about your life in the new year. For many people, New Years resolutions are an opportunity to make a fresh start. For others, it is the chance to learn new habits and live a healthier and happy life. No matter what your approach is to New Years resolutions, here are the top 10 New Years resolutions that many people start with at the beginning of the year.
1 - Quit Smoking
Smoking is one of the number one health problems worldwide. Smoking can lead to a multitude of health problems, including lung cancer, emphysema, high blood pressure, esophageal cancer and many others. Quitting smoking as a New Years resolution is difficult and addiction to nicotine is extremely hard to fight. But with enough dedication and assistance, you can stop smoking.
There are several methods that have proven to be effective in stopping smoking. One of the most effective tools to stop smoking is one-on-one counseling. With counseling you'll have someone with you every step of the way to quit smoking.
2 - Get Out Of Debt
Today, Americans carry an average of over $10,000 in credit card debt and this is a major New Years resolution. In order to get out of debt, review your budget and cut out the things that you really do not need. Even getting one less daily latte or expensive pair of shoes can make a difference in your budget. If you are deeply in debt, bite the bullet and consider talking to a credit counselor. They may be able to help you consolidate your credit card debts into a single payment or eliminate at least part of your debt and give you some breathing room.
3 - Get Organized
Getting organized can be easy if you are dedicated to carrying through once you get going with it. If your New Years resolution is to get organized, break it down into specifics. Decide precisely what you want to be organized about and then take steps to put it into action. For instance, if you want to be organized about paying your bills every month, mark a day on your calendar when you will pay bills and then set aside a specific place for collecting bills. Then write out your payment checks or log online and make your payments. If you make this into a habit, then it becomes second nature to do it automatically every week or monthly.
4 - Spend More Time With Family & Friends
If your New Years resolution is to spend more time with your family and friends, then you need to set aside time to make it happen. One way to accomplish this is to have one night a week that is for social events. Call your friends and make a date for dinner or to go to the movies. Family night is another great way to spend time with your family. Spending time with friends and family is important because it fosters close relationships and trust. For kids, especially, spending time together can be emotionally healthy and help them develop into healthy adults.
5 - Get In Shape
Getting in shape is a big commitment. Most Americans are overweight and losing even a few pounds and keeping them off can be a challenge for a New Years resolution. If you are out of shape, start slowly and talk to your doctor to discuss any health problems you might have to take into consideration when making a workout plan.
You can take small walks every day and get a good amount of moderate exercise. Instead of parking as close to the mall as possible, park a little farther out and walk the extra steps to go shopping. spaced throughout the day, exercise can be easily integrated into your life.
Also make simple changes to your eating habits to get into shape. Instead of eating ice cream for dessert, choose a dish of fresh fruit. Instead of eating that burger for a quick lunch, choose a healthy salad with a vinaigrette dressing. Even doing this just a few days a week can make a big difference to your waistline.
6 - Help Others
One of the most popular New Years resolutions is to help others. Helping others can be accomplished in a number of ways. If you are active in your church, consider participating in charitable activities, like visiting residents in elderly care or nursing homes. You can also volunteer time in programs to teach adults to read or become a supportive adult to a child. Helping others can be as simple as being kind to the people around you and being willing to lend a comforting shoulder to someone in need.
7 - Learn Something New
Learning something new is one of the most popular New Years resolutions. Think about something that you have always wanted to know and take a shot at it. If you have always wanted to learn Italian, enroll in a language course online or at your local community college. Take an art appreciation course or start reading a non-fiction book on a topic of interest. If you take the attitude that you can always learn something new, then you will grow as a person.
8 - Travel to New Places
Travel is always exciting and is one of the very common New Years resolutions. Choose a place to travel where you have never been and begin to plan your trip. If you do not have someone special to go with you, then try investigating companion travel programs. Be adventurous and throw a dart at a map and go where ever the dart lands on the map.
9 - Enjoy Life More
Enjoying life more is among the top New Years resolutions. Enjoying life is about attitude. If you have a positive attitude and make the best of every situation you are presenting with in life, you will find yourself happier and more content, even through the difficult times. Enjoying life is a great goal to have for the new year.
10 - Go to School
In today's economy, people are often looking for ways to reinvent themselves. Going to school is one of the top New Years resolutions as a way to start a new career or develop new skills. Even if you goal is simply to learn about a new topic, going to school is a great way to develop new friends and engage yourself.
Most people who create New Years resolutions unfortunately fail as a result of a number of factors. These factors include creating too many New Years resolutions, not writing down your New Years resolutions, not having a support group and keeping your New Years resolutions to yourself.
How Do I Stick to My New Years Resolutions?
The secret to sticking to your New Years resolutions is to start immediately so when New Years day comes you'll be well and truly on your way to accomplishing your goals.
