Two guy friends of mine and a woman. We got into the discussion on relationships and how they meet their person they are dating at to things they like and aren't happy with. It is funny that no matter who I talk to a lot of the time the same dis-likes come up and likes. I am working on a book on this subject and would like your help. Listed below is a part from the bible and below that is a quick survey. Children and Parents Relationships I have heard so many times over the years from friends that they wish their kids could stay young for ever or be young again. It is so nice when you are the most important thing in the world to your kids. I have two great kids or should I say young adults now. My kids are in College and a Senior in High School. I know I loved the times that I would come home from work and they would come running to me and give warm hugs and kisses, would want to sit on my lap and watch a movie, would want me to play games with them or go to the park. They would have their mom bring them to my work to see me and hang out. Taking time for work for more important things in life So do you work extra hours everyday? Do you take work home at night? Do you go into work on your days off? Do you tell people in your lives you can't attend a social event or do things with them because you need to work on a project? Work is important and I know with the economy that it is even more stressful to many people who don't want to lose their job. I know many people are looking for jobs also. Taking time for work for more important things in life So do you work extra hours everyday? Do you take work home at night? Do you go into work on your days off? Do you tell people in your lives you can't attend a social event or do things with them because you need to work on a project? Work is important and I know with the economy that it is even more stressful to many people who don't want to lose their job. I know many people are looking for jobs also. God will help you with your new job I was watching the news on TV and it said about how high the unemployment rate is and how many people each week file new claims for assistance. You probably know many people who have got laid off from there hob, or there hours cut or even lost there job permanently. There is so much uncertainty in the work place currently. If you have a job currently be thankful of your blessings. If you are starting a new job remember the following: Just a Dog or Just a Relationship I love getting inspirational stories from friends. I like to pass them on to the world so it may help others and lift their spirits if they are down. The below stories does make you think, and the heading "Just a Dog" a lone got me thinking of all the dogs I have had in my life. Read and enjoy; Over come worry with Faith Have you had days where you let a problem ruin it? Have you had nights that you could not sleep because you couldn't get rid of a problem. I know in the past I had times when I couldn't sleep, I wasn't hungry. During the one time I lost over 30 pounds due to stressing over a situation that was going on in my life. But after going to church and taking seminars and reading many books. This happened to me last week: Divorce is not an option article On the front page of the In Touch magazine has a head line of "Divorce is not an Option". Then is says "For the first time Jennifer speaks out about trouble with Mark and why she isn't wearing her wedding Ring. I know this could be a touchy article if you are divorced, going through a divorce, married or getting married or want to get married some day. Could Divorce not be a option in a marriage? Paradigm of friendship sign When I used to work for Nash Finch I traveled to North Carolina to help with the transfer of ownership for some stores and to supervise some existing stores. It was the first time I had traveled to North Carolina. I couldn't believe how beautiful the parts of the state I saw. For sure there was lots of trees in that area. But when I was in a hotel I saw the below sign on friendship. I feel it can help people with friendships, to worry less and enjoy life more. Here it is: How well do you take care of yourself? At work we have a Dietitian who is always on me to eat better. She is very concerned with every-one's health. I know she is right, we can enjoy life so much better when we feel good about our selves. It is a lot better to be able to do things and not be so winded. I also feel we need to have not only our physical health but our mental health. We need to keep also working on living a happy and a positive life. Here are some ways to live better: Asking for Help and Helping Others in Need How well are you able to ask for help? I know I have a hard time asking for help, I like to try to solve most problems on my own. But I am not saying that is the right thing to do, I have since I have gotten older started asking more from my friends for guidance. Do you ask others for help? Why or why not? Do others ask you for help? If they do do you help out? How do you solve problems - what route to take? What do you do when you face a problem? Do you run from it, avoid it or face it head on? Are you afraid of making a mistake if you handle the problem wrong? So many things in life to enjoy What are the things in your life that bring you happiness? Do you see little things daily as pleasures or do you feel only happy when big things go your way? Some people let their day be determined if you have a good day or not, or if their relationship went the way they wanted it to go. I know the older I get the more little things I enjoy. I know when I used to compete in sports I would get really upset if I didn't do good, now I can laugh it off most of the time and no the next hole or game could be great. For instance in a tournament this last week my second game in bowling was 174. I could have gotten upset but I didn't and my last game was a 278. How do you enjoy the day? Joel and Victoria Osteen Fan Club If you like to read books and like inspirational books you should read every book Joel or Victoria has ever written. Their books are so down to earth and inspirational. I feel reading books is like the saying hang around positive people. If you read inspirational books and positive books you are bound to be a happier person than you would if you read negative articles or books on subjects like Divorce or leaving someone. Why not make this world a happy place, why not make all relationships work, why not help others see the world as a better place? Why be sad or mad? Life is too short not to he happy and enjoy it. Here is a sample of a inspirational daily e-mail I get from Joel Osteen Ministries; Friendship is priceless We all have friends. Some people may have more than others, it doesn't matter how many friends you have or don't have. Some friends are close friends and some are casual friends. I know I am blessed with many close friends. I thank them all for always being there for me. I know any of my good friends would be there if I needed a place to stay or needed to borrow money. I was at work today and saw the following sign; Finding your purpose in life We all could have questions at time what is our purpose in life. What are we supposed to be doing? Who are we supposed to be helping? Are we supposed to have kids? Are we supposed to be married? Are we supposed to coach others? Where are we supposed to work? We all have different interests and desires. I know I feel I am to here to have my two wonderful kids, also to help others, to help inspire others to achieve there dreams. I also like to coach sports to helping people achieve financial freedom. To sum it up I feel one of my purpose in life is to be a problem solver. How to find your purpose: Live life to the fullest Are you living life to the fullest? Are you happy everyday from the time you wake up until the time you go to bed. I have a saying at work that I use a lot called " No Rainy Days". I have learned over the years that I am the only one that can control my own happiness and how I do that is keeping a positive attitude. If you watch the news you can see many people that may be having a worst day than you are. The news shows us people who lost a loved one to their home to their job and more. Here are some ways to help you keep a positive outlook on life everyday: Improving your Mind and Body in the new year The year is almost over and most people are setting their New Years resolutions. At work a lot of people are wanting to lose weight. I know some people are wanting to work on their financial situation in 2009 from making more money to paying down their debt. Others will want to exercise more either by lifting weights, gong for walks or jogging. What about also working on your memory skills? Happy Holidays to all Happy Holidays to all. I hope you all have a great Holiday and are thankful for everything you have. I am eating Dove Chocolates and two of the wrappers say "Joy is contagious" and "Miracles aren't limited to the holidays. How true those two statements are. I know some people may be alone today and missing people in their lives, but they should know that in spirit their are many people who care about them and wish they could all be together. Daily I pray for so many people, from family to friends. I hope 2009 brings even more happiness to everyone. Here is something a good friend of mine sent to me; Yes Man Movie We went to the "Yes Man" movie last night and it was good. What a positive fun movie for the Holiday time. Holiday time should be a fun time, why watch any negative movies? Could you imagine going the rest of the week or month saying "Yes" to everything? Could you do that at home, at work, with friends and others all day? What would happen if you did? Would it be positive or negative experience? What are positive things you could do this week for others? I think back from the seminar I went to in April of this year. They said; Who Believes in you? I saw the commercial today from American Express and it was on Who Believes you? It really got me thinking. Can you think of who really believes in you. Hopefully you have many people you can say that does. But I know many people I have talked to say they feel they don't have any adult friends that truly believe in them. They say their kids believe in them until they are teenagers. I know most of my friends will make comments to me about my business that makes me feel they don't believe in me. They seem not to have interest in my business. Their common question is how much are you making? Instead of showing interest and wanting to help it succeed. This is just a observation. I have read many times from studies that people want to see us fail because they won't seem like a failure. Business owners or Inventors face this type of negative messages all the time. I had a friend the other day saying how they wished their wife believed in them. So do you believe and support the people you love and your friends?

Some people don't like this time of your because they may be single or not able to be with people they love due to work. I know there is a lot of people who do not like to be alone for the holidays.
