25 Secrets She Wishes You Knew By Laura Milne

Of course you don't understand women. Sometimes they can't even explain themselves. But often their secrets are universal, like these 25 things she wishes you knew. Secret 1 Please listen to me. Not because what I'm about to say will rock your world, but because listening is a sign of respect that rocks my world. Secret 2 Women speak a different dialect than men. For example, "I'm fine" means "I'm so not fine," just as "No dessert for me" means "I'll be polishing off yours." Secret 3 Remember, PMS stands for "physical and mental stress." So let me cry freely, behave irrationally, and eat your dessert. My mood swings are hormonal, not personal. Secret 4 Manicures and pedicures are a woman's gift to her man. I love looking pretty for you. The time to worry is when I stop going for them. Secret 5 Always tell me when I look hot; never tell me when I don't. And don't forget: I need 20 compliments to offset...

The King’s Speech: Reflections On Oba Akiolu’s Comment To Igbos By Ahmed Olayinka Sule, CFA

Finally, there needs to be a revolution in our collective thinking. Tribalism should have no place in our country. Ethnicity and nationality are not mutually exclusive concepts. It is not an either/or; it is a both/and. We can be proud of our Yoruba/Urhobo/Igbo heritage and still be proud to be Nigerian. Every Nigerian has the right to live in any part of the country without fear of harm. Lagos will always be in the South West so people should not be afraid that "outsiders" are coming to take the land. There is enough room for all of us to live in perfect harmony. We should also realise that we are all interdependent on each other. “On Saturday, if anyone of you, I swear in the name of God, goes against my wish that Ambode will be the next governor of Lagos State, the person is going to die inside this water." Ever since Oba Akiolu, the King of Lagos said the above words to leaders of the Igbo community, the incident has become one of the most talked about topic in Niger...

HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN YOU ARE ALONE

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help,the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However,these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!! A cardiologist says If everyone who sees this post shares it to 10 people, you can bet ...

A Better Way To Recover From A Broken Heart.

Feeling emotionally bruised from a breakup? You may not want to "get over it" too quickly. Let your split linger:People who reflect on their breakups are more likely to heal their heartache than those who don’t face their feelings, finds a recent University of Arizona study. In the study, participants who frequently answered questions about their breakup showed greater recovery than those who were only prodded briefly at the beginning and end of the experiment. “When relationships end, we often suffer a big change in our fundamental sense of self,” says study author, David Sbarra, Ph.D. But the more you start to regularly think about who you really are and what you want in life—apart from that relationship—the more you regain the clarity you need to cope well, Sbarra says. Need help teasing that out? “People—and men especially—benefit by talking about their experiences and reflecting honestly about what’s happening,” says Sbarra. So stop the silent sulk and strike up a conve...

7 Life Lessons We Can Learn From Children

When each of us come into the world – we are a blank slate. We have the amazing ability to be formed and molded by our surroundings and the people who influence us in the most important of times. As we get older, we fall into routines and ways of thinking that may seem set in stone – but the beautiful part about the human mind is, we can always choose to re-mold ourselves, to learn, and grow. Then, when we become parents, we pass the life lessons we have learnedonto our children as well. But, it is important to realize that none of us know everything, and there is plenty to be gained by keeping an open mind to where new lessons can come from. Here are some ways we can benefit by thinking like a kid again: *.They always ask questions. Kids want to know why everything is the way it is. Anyone who has been around a child is aware of the string of questions that follow each other in an attempt to constantly learn. We can’t let this part of ourselves fade away. Curiosity, learning, and unde...

When A Broda Is Ready For Commitment

As a nearly 30 year old (shhhh…don’t rush it) man, I am old enough to be past the phase of scouring my contact list at 1:50am looking for an afterparty, and still young enough to remember what it was like. I am still aware of what changed in my life and my thought process that made me realize that I was done with the single life, and wanted to find someone to build something real with. Something meaningful. A future. A life. While this happens to all men (and women) at different times in their life, I believe there are certain things that cause this realization. He stops looking for someone to complete him. You, right now, are a whole complete person. If you think you need to be in a relationship in order to be “complete,” you will always be looking for something you can never find. True fulfillment and satisfaction comes from within, and you cannot fully, effectively give yourself to someone until you’ve found it. You don’t need someone to complete you, only someone to accept you comp...
