I have always wondered exactly what religious/spiritual catagory I fall into. I believe in a higher being but I do not believe in organized religion. Where would I fall? (link)
|
You might fall into the same category as I do.
I'm a spiritual person but not a religious one. I don't know if man at this point in time really has the full concept of "God" and man's place in the universe. I don't pretend to "know it all" I'm still searching and I'm 55.
Below are some quotes that I hope may inspire you.
When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion. - Abraham Lincoln
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness. - Dalai Lama
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude.-Denis Waitley
Our lack of compassion stems from our inability to see deeply into the nature of things.-Lama Surya Das

When Should You Be Concerned About Menstrual Blood Clots
These are some of the signs that you should talk with your doctor about menstrual blood clots.
* You have been passing blood clots for more than a day.
* The blood clots are large, bigger than a quarter.
* You've never passed menstrual blood clots before, so having blood clots in your menstrual flow is an unusual occurrence for you. Such changes in your menstrual cycle could be a sign of a more serious medical condition.
So, menstrual blood clots are usually a normal part of some women's menstrual cycle. But it's important to know when menstrual blood clots are a cause for concern, and to talk to your doctor if you believe menstrual blood clots are a sign that you have a more serious condition.
The above taken from the website below.

Hope this helps.
God am I glad I don't have periods anymore. I had to have a hysterectomy at 35 because I use to pass clots the size of golf balls and cramps.
Good luck and hope you are alright.

Call a reputable beautician/beauty parlor asap and have them "correct" your mistake.
You may have to pay a little extra but you'll look so much better.
(I have a really good beautician and make sure I tip her generously because I can depend on her excellent work).
Or
You could go "goth" for awhile (lol/kidding).
Good luck.

Okay I just got a guinea pig less then a month ago. And I was putting her in her cage, and i was so stupid because she jumped maybey half a foot down out of my hands ( i guess she was scared) and now she hardly puts her front left foot( or leg) down I am so scared, I am pretty sure its broke or fractured, and the closest vet in 2 hrs. away.
Will it heal in time or what?
How can i help her be happy, am i paranoid or somthing. I just feel so horrible it's all my fault!
IF I was to take her to the vet what would they do? Will it cost a couple hundred dollars or what? (link)

I would suggest you call the vet and talk to them first. See if they can "consult" you over the phone.
They probably will want you to come in.
When you "get an animal" it's almost like having a child, you are responsible for his/her (they are not it's) welfare.
I treat my two cats and dog exactly the way I would want to be treated if our roles were reversed. (Clean, fed, fresh water, companionship, warm)
I will warn you having any animal is expensive. We had hamsters a long while back and they are so small that it's hard for a vet to treat them.
If somethings broke or even strained your little friend might be in pain.
I would also like to stress, if possible always get a shelter animal vs a pet shop animal as pet shops usually always buy from animal mills.
There are so many wonderful animals out there in need of a good home.
In America alone we kill millions of animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbals, ferrits, guinea pigs etc) every year because there simply aren't enough good homes.
Good luck with your little friend and let us know how he/she is.

alright well to start of i'm 15, 5'3", female, and weigh about 145 pounds.
i really want to loose weight. i am currently a size 5 or 7 in jeans, in hollister jeans, and i want to go back to being 3 or even a 1 but thats just hopeful wishing. i am athletic, i play soccer just about year round, and participate the most in my P.E. class. i go to the gym maybe 3 times a week, but it differs.
my biggest problem is the way i eat. i have a really bad eating habbit. i eat alot, but just as much as any other 15 year old, but alot of the time its junk food. this is my usual diet on a school day.
poptart for breakfast + glass of milk
whatever school lunch is + chocolate milk (my lunch is at 1030 in the morning)
after school i usualy have some kind of snack, sometimes chicken nuggest, or cookie, or eggs or something.
and then whatever my mom makes for dinner.
its really bad and i've tried so many times to try to get into the habbit of eating better because i know once i start to do it and stick with it for awhile, i can stay with it and i know i can loose weight fast because i have a fast metablism. anyone know how i can start getting into a better habbit?

I would humbly suggest the following:
Get Calorie King's Exercise & weight journal and start logging in everything you eat and drink.
Buy a juicer or ask Santa for one. (There's tons of free recipe's on the net for juicing)
There is a book I bought my son who has lost 45 pounds it is called, "You Are What You Eat" by Dr. Gillian McKeith. She has a program on the BBC by that name and addresses.
STOP do not eat at McDonald's, Burger King, KFC or any of those fast food places.
At 15 I was still 115 and I am 5'3" like you. I lived on a farm and got up at 5:30 to feed and milk the cows. Clean out the barns and then sat down to a "country breakfast" however I had expended probably 2,000 calories by the work (exercise) I did.
I started really gaining after I was married and had children.
By 55 I was 300 and had to have a gastric bypass six weeks ago. I have lost 40 pounds but this was not "the easy way".
If you can, please try to change your eating habits to natural, healthy food and exercise, even if it's walking or swimming, join a gym.
While you are young, you think that you can do anything to your body and get away with it.
Time flies so quickly, it seems like just yesterday and I was 15 now I'm 55.
In your 20s, 30s and 40's you can fool yourself that "you're okay" but once you hit 50 you will begin to feel how well or bad you have treated your body.
How you treat your body now will determin the type of "old age" you grow into.
Do you want to sit on a porch and vegetate or at 60 going on a cruise and dancing in the moonlight?
Me I'm going to be dancing the night away.
Again, you need to really get aware of what you are eating/drinking.
If you can just get yourself into a healthy eating / exercising habit vs having to have what I had you will be happier.
CalorieKing.com 's food and exercise management log is wonderful, does all the work for you and let's you see what you're really doing and gives you a handle on developing the right eating habits.
Best of luck to you.
Be healthy!

Okay, well you know how some people's eyebrows have those really nice, high arches?! well no matter how hard i try, i can never seem to make one that looks completely natural and normal. Does it have to be like,just the way your eyebrow grows? Or can you make them? If so, would it be best to go to a place were they wax them? Thanks haha ;D (link)
|
I use to have the same problem years ago, but I went to a beautician and pay her an extra 2-3 bucks to wax and "train" my eyebrows.
They look really nice with arches now.
It's worth the couple of extra bucks.
