Link Romantic Feelings To The Sight Of Your Face
Anchoring is an NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) term used to describe the mind's tendency to associate two unrelated events or experiences, especially when a strong emotion is present. For example, if your mother fed you chicken soup when you were ill as a child, you will always associate chicken soup to being loved and cared for. On the down side, if you once contracted food poisoning from eating tainted pickles, just the smell of pickles will be enough to bring on a feeling of nausea many years after the event.

Two Kinds of Love
Love is something we all need, and want. For love, some have lived, and many others have died. Though the scriptures say it is more blessed to give than to receive, many of us are more concerned with receiving love than giving it. Did you know that love could be proactive or reactive? Let me explain: Being proactive is to make things happen, rather than waiting for them to happen, to decide what you want and go after it, to decide what you don't want and prevent it. Proactive people take charge of their lives, assuming responsibility . . . keep reading

Being A Friend Through A Divorce
We used to joke amongst the couples we are close to, "who would get custody of the friends in a divorce". We are a very close group of friends that met in college around 20 years ago, and have remained close through many of life's changes and transitions.

Here was a couple that we shared our lives with. Her husband and mine had been roommates the same year that she and . . . keep reading
Global Conflict and Inter-Religious Dialogue: The Importance of Understanding Others
As is learned in the study of Comparative Religion, the Avitars (Moses, Muhammad, Jesus, Buddha, Confucius, Abraham and others) had amazingly similar philosophies of belief ... centered on Right Action as a path: respect others, think positively, be helpful and be compassionate.

And, as time unfolds, more and more of the new generations are seeking other paths for . . . keep reading
He's So Loving (But He Has These Black Moods)
It's strange how often abused women tell you how loving their partner is. Stranger still is that it usually happens after they have talked about extraordinary threats, behaviour or violence to which he has subjected them. Obviously, it's a denial mechanism, a way of whitewashing his character. It's also about the hunger for love - a hunger that becomes greater with every abusive outburst. In part, it's about settling for crumbs... and being grateful... because you know that the square meal you need is not on offer. But that's not . . . keep reading

What's The Attraction?
Why do people have affairs? Why not do the 'right' thing and leave a marriage first if one is inclined to step out of it? The reasons are as varied as the people involved.

How to Increase Romance with Humor
Ask any single adult what qualities he or she wants in a spouse or partner, and one of the first answers is always "a sense of humor." Yet relationships and most marriages easily lose the early excitement after living together for several years. Healthy relationships require laughter.
