A Fresh Look at Titanium Jewellery
by Morgan Hamilton

Do you like collecting jewellery? I've been living with few jewellery collectors so I am pretty well aware of the routine and habits that go with it. I have seen it all, from white gold, to sterling silver, to yellow gold, to platinum. They all come in various shapes and sizes and frequently have decorations made of rare stones of all kinds. Those women just love having tons of jewellery. From my personal experience I know they never go with only a new necklace, bracelet or earrings; it is proba ...

If You Can’t Hear Your Inner Music, You Must Turn Up The Volume!
by Eugenia M. Tripputi

Family, friends, work, and recreation sound like a few areas of our lives that take up most of our time. We go from one to another, filling up our days, weeks, months, and perhaps years. Oftentimes, in the process, we forget about a crucial part: taking care of ourselves! If you were raised in a guilt-ridden conservative environment, this was, and may still be, a foreign concept. However, I began to learn the importance of it from the wise words of my grandmother: “If you are going to hire hel ...

A Look at Christian Motivational Speakers
by Ross Bainbridge

For the most part, Christian motivational speakers concentrate on two areas that may overlap. The first is spreading the gospel. This does not mean that they are training for the priesthood. It means that they apply the Bible’s teachings to anything and everything going on in the world today and they speak about it at whatever opportunity arises. In the past several years, with the country leaning more and more to the right, popular radio and TV shows have sprung up, and Christian motivational ...

The Temptation of the Critical Voice
by Margaret Paul, Ph.D.

Each of us has an inner critic. There is no way to grow up in our society without having developed this inner critical voice – which comes from parents, teachers, peers, the media, and from our own conclusions. The problem is that this inner critic sounds like a voice of authority when in reality it doesn’t know what it is talking about. It is a voice based on beliefs that have been handed down through generations but that have no basis in fact. How often has this voice said to you: “Y ...

Lots of people dream of taking up courses in art in order to develop their talents. Others just need a new hobby or a good way to relax. Unfortunately very few have enough free time to spend it traveling forth and back to the nearest school of art and attending classes there.

Feudin’ and Fussin’ and A-Fightin’
by Gene Simmons

There are probably at least 17 gazillion reasons why folks get into arguments. Unfortunately none of them are very valid. Here’s what I mean. Let’s take a look at the base word first. My super-duper dictionary defines “argue” as: “To present reasons for or against a thing”. OK, so the word “thing” leaves a little to be desired but I can translate that to mean an opinion or concept. No problem. To me then, “argue” is a good, logical word that simply means stating your side of a case ...

Sneaky, Sneaky, Sneaky…
by Gene Simmons

I don’t know what else you’d call it. “Sneaky” is the only word I can think of that best describes the actions of the frequently devious little part of our mind that is commonly referred to as our “subconscious”. “Sneaky”. Just plain, out and out sneaky. Oh, that’s not to say that our subconscious always operates in the brat mode. Far from it. With the right kind of conditioning – programming, if you will – it can serve us quite nicely. It can help create a life of happiness and product ...
