Voice over Internet Protocol is this new booming technology that allows you to make phone calls using your already available internet service. Let’s you are paying your cable company or your internet service provider $50 for internet services and you are paying your regular phone company about $50, for the month you are spending about $100. Now can you image using a company like Vonage and/or RingCentral which will charge you a fee ranging from $9.95 to $25 a month, already you are saving about half of your phone bill! Now you may ask, why didn’t I know about this before, well there are many reasons why but let me tell you one: We are all afraid of change, since we have been around regular phone lines for a very long time it would be hard to just change and move to something else which we barely understand. Well that’s what VoIP does; it allows you to use your current internet service to call. There are some free services online you signup for.
We all have our different ways of dealing with stress from school, work and our day to day encounters. Many people struggle to cope with these stressful moments. There are many things that one can do to be mind free for at least a split moment. Music is recognized to be a good therapeutic agent. Whenever I am not in a good mood or just not feeling like myself, I pop in a CD into my car radio if I am driving or play something from my computer if I am at home. Listening to music helps me to calm down. I think music should be part of our spiritual growth journey. Sometimes you may be going through something and can’t think of anyone to turn to, not because you don’t have any friends or siblings but because they may not understand what it is that you are going through. And sometimes there is this one song that you can listen to that will let you know that whatever it may be that you are going through, there is someone who will always understands. He will not criticize you when you are down; rather he will raise you up above all by giving you the strength that you need to go on. There is this song by Gaither Vocal band I have learned to love “When I cry” Listen to it carefully at the end of this post. The music we listen to sometimes help us to realize things that we have lost track of. Share with us your therapeudic agent, what do you do to cope with stress or when you are going through something.
It has been said that once you get married, you and your spouse become one and many people may not know but that also does include your bank accounts. What’s yours is mine and what’s mine is yours type of deal. Yet there are so conflicting point of views when it comes to this topic. I believe that yes, both you and your partner should definitely have a joint account once you become husband and wife because you do in fact now function as one unit rather than seperate entities. Both of you should come to an understanding though on how exactly the money that comes in should be spent or what not. Now I do hear this a lot so I’m going to put it out there. How about if one day your spouse decides to leave you and they take all the money with them, so your basically left out in the cold. Well to that I would suggest that you always do keep some money on the side for a rainy day. Now the quesiton could become, well should I tell my partner about this little bank account on the side. And really I think that depends on the type of relationship you and your spouse have. If you two share a very close relationship and are open to talk about anything than I don’t see the harm in telling him/her. But if you forsee it as a problem then maybe it can be your well kept secret. I know a lot of women like to save a little something on the side and I personally don’t see anything wrong with that and it may very well be just to pamper yourself or save for a day that you might be a bit dry and you need the extra funds. This is a topic that many people do encounter in their relationships and it is one that shouldn’t be taken lightly so on that note, I want to open the floor for discussion. What do you all think about this? Let us know!
Forgiveness, is probably one of the hardest things that humanity may have to do. When someone hurts us, innately we have a drive to simply hurt them back. It is definitely a battle to supress those innate feelings that seem to take over us anytime we are confronted with a situation that requires us to forgive. For some they may say that forgivenss doesn’t entail that we forget, but is that really true. Can you truly say you have forgiven someone if you plan on not forgetting what they have done? I guess the more pertinent question is should there be any given circumstances in which someone just doesn’t deserve to be pardoned or forgiven. For instance, if someone raped your sister, would you forgive them? If someone stole your car, would you forgive them? If someone killed someone close to you, would you find it in your heart to forgive them? Under what circumstances is forgiveness granted and under what circumstances is it not? Should we not forgive our fellow man irregardless of the situation, I mean God does forgive us despite what the situation is. Please comment below and let us know your thoughts.
By the way…I just want to take a few to give shoutouts to all of our readers, without all of you this blog wouldn’t be. I hope that we can all gain some deeper insight from these topics. Love you all!
Happy Monday everyone, I hope you all had an amazing weekend. Today’s topic is about whether or not a person should marry their partner after dating them for just a few weeks. As you all may know Khloe Kardashian, Kim Kardashian’s little sister got married this weekend to Lamar Odom that plays on the Lakers. Now mind you these two started dating just about a month ago and they have already jumped the broom. Now I can’t judge on whether it was for love or for television ratings but how many people really think that after just a short period of dating someone that your ready to really commit the rest of your life, as it very well should be to them. Personally, I believe in having a great deal of time in getting to know a person before I can commit my life to them, but this is just me of course. I think that a few weeks just isn’t enough to know that you truly love someone. Love takes times and it takes you through various rollercoaster rides and I think before you jump the broom you have to be 100% sure that no matter what direction this roller coaster ride may take you that your in it for the long run. I’m not sure if you can feel like this just after a short while. Well, I would really love to hear your thoughts about this topic! Feel free to leave comments below!
What exactly would you constitute as cheating? We have had two segments on should we stay with someone that has cheated on us and we all have different opinions on what we will or should do in such situation. What should be considered as cheating on our significant other? I think it’s definitely time that we make that distinction. Would you consider dancing at a party with someone else the way you would be dancing with you partner cheating? Is looking at someone of the opposite sex when your partner is not around cheating? Or is it even ok to look at someone else? My take on this is that I find nothing is wrong with looking as long as it doesn’t go beyond just a look. If all sorts of ideas going through your mind about what you can, or would or should do to someone like that then I think that can be considered cheating. Is talking to someone else other than your other half for countless hours cheating? I think we all will have our ideas of what cheating is and for most as long as the significant other don’t sleep with someone else or even perhaps kiss with someone then it’s not cheating. Oh wait, how about if your significant other decides to go out with their “friend” something you would perhaps consider a date, would you consider that cheating? Let me know what you guys thinking cheating is and where do you cross the line in order for it to be considered a problem. Please feel free to comment below!
