BED INTRUDER SONG!!! (now on iTunes)

I s there power in positive thinking?

       I do believe that there is power in positive thinking, higher how aspiration are the more you’ll work towards them there you achieve. We all heard stories about people who come are from stories poverty ridden backgrounds and are some of the wealthiest Americans. They spoke about the passion, drive and hunger they had to reach their goal. They had to make a lot of sacrifice to achieve their goals. Comedian Steve Harvey talked about leaving his wife and three kids in order to become the successful man he is now. While living with his family they were very poor and unable to save money. He had to make a tough decision to venture out, and become a successful personality.    If you are more likely to push for your goals to happen your mentality is set on your main goal.

RELATIONSHIPS AND HAPPINESS DRAFT 1

     A number of Americans are prescribe daily with anti-depressed drugs leading them to believe it can make them achieve happiness, when The drug industry makes a huge profit off the anti-depressants that the society purchase, Whether are not these pills are harmful to some and even affect their happiness we are pursue to believe that these anti-depressant pills is the best way to achieve happiness. Therefore people with minor depression symptoms are talk into trying out an anti-depression believing it will make their life be full with happiness. Everyday Happiness should be distinguished from happiness induced by pharmaceuticals drugs.
   Many of society’s advertisements are base around pharmaceuticals drugs TV ads, bill boards, magazines. Not knowing the side effects or what the drugs is deeply needed for, many people rush to taking the drugs. That is why so much Americans rush into taking anti-depressant. “Just seeing the happiness these pills can portray make me want to leap to the greener side of the grass” Dr. Jackson Clyde states So many people believe that with taking the pill comes happiness and this is not true it doesn’t work for everyone and most cases doesn’t need to be used. Many people who are taking anti-depressants are not severely depressed, there’s a huge difference in being depressed and severely depressed. A person who usually is severely may experience thoughts and actions that are harmful to themselves and others such as suicide thoughts, sleeping disorders, eating disorders, as a person who is just slightly depressed may be mad for the moment. The majority of people who are depressed whether it severely are slightly believe anti-depressant is the answer. “Depression is not a brain disease, and chemicals don't cure it.” Irving Kirsch, Ph.D. states
   The most important step that many tend to skip past is evaluating the depressed mood, determining its severity and if it makes sense in this person's life. Many people deal with complaints of anxiety rather than depression. “Do we even know what makes us happy? And it difficult to figure out what makes us happy in the moment, how can we predict what will make us happy in the future” (Daniel Gilbert qtd in Jon Gertner 9) mildly depresses patients often jump to anti depressants pills to look for everyday happiness when it clearly a dose of anxiety in everyday life. Misjudge by what is presented with anti-depressed pills patients relay heavily on happy future. When mildly depressed patients are able to move on without it.
   There are many reason why mildly depressed people are lead to take anti-depressed, It can be because of the commercial ads, bill boards or magazine but one thing is for sure this industry is one of the highest paying industry in the world. Just like any other job it all about the money and happiness an person can attain from their job and its being provide on both sides. In “How happy we will be written by Greg Critser” He talks about a young man who been seeing his psychiatrist for years but recently sent him to wealthy man who prescribes him anti-depressed drugs. This shows that every medication that’s being distributed is also a benefit for the drug industry. So what happen to the one that’s being misdiagnosed with depressed just to benefit the industry what about the side effects. . In Ben Harder’s article, psychologist Kirsh admits that one of the side effects of antidepressants is increased risk of suicide. This can lead mildly depressed person in a deep situation that wasn’t meant for them.
   Depression can mean a lot of things that people often misjudge for a disorder it affects majority of people in America and is often lead to other things that industries can benefit off of.

What im grateful for?

What I'm grateful for ? This question makes me wonder i. Although i usually focus on the doubts and what needed I'm still grateful for many things like, I'm most thankful for my religion when things are down i have god to lean on, to cry ,and to talk to he been there for me and he always answers back without screwing his face or looking down on me. he just overall loves staying with me. Next I'm thankful for my mother she raise me into the women i am today. she has show me the path that ahead if I'm not doing right. She provided my home and pay the bills without asking me for a dime. she puts food on the table and provided for others too, she loves my friends and allows Me to be the person i want to be. She shows me life morals so that i wouldn't be taken a fool or make anyone take my happiness away, I'm also thankful for my father because without him there wouldn't be no me . He not like other fathers he was there for me and still is and he cherish me. and the last thing I'm grateful is my brother because i lost one and at least i can try to prevent my him from going into the wrong direction. There are many things I'm  thankful for i can go on and on but these things that i have mention is priceless it not thing that can be purchase in stores there one of a kind and many people don't have these gifts of joy.

RELATIONSHIPS AND HAPPINESS DRAFT 1

How do we determine the kinds of relationships that's make us happy ?
Many people believe that they need a relationship to make themselves happy but in reality relationships can be for the better or for the worst what happens after the relationship foe say goes sour and doesn't have a fairly tail ending does it have a major effect on out happiness .
Our society is base of sharing one's love with another but what if u can't love who u want to love does that lower or happiest or rise it many people who love the same or love wrong according to family tends to be way less happier than the ones who love right .
As a person whose has experience a relationship that made me happy . I fully understand how that can have a Hugh effect on my  happiest . Although the people didn't want me around a" Muslim " he made me happy I mean he was the same culture and same upbringing as I was so I didn't understand . But the effect of people thought made me unhappy. The influence everyone has on me was unbearable . I was caught between whether I'm doing the wrong thing or the right thing . I finally came to the conclusion that whatever made me feel right what the right thing to do . I felt an internal happiness when I was with him and it resulted in overall happiness . Eventually everyone learn to understand my happiness and started to except what made me happy to make themselves happy . As lord Byron stated "All who would win joy must share it; happiness was born a twin" (pg 111) meaning that happiness was meant to be share with someone and in my case happiness was spread
throughout others, it was a relationship of happiness with others.
The world we live in today is very judgemental and base upon believes that not everyone is supported by leaving the world to be fill with unhappiest by others . As the Francis bacon write "redouble joy, and cutteth griefs in half". (Pg 111) it would be a much happy world most of the time people tend to make others unhappy if we just share the happiest someone has found we would replace the unhappy  with happy .

Real Love vs "the Ideal" Blog 5

When two people meet for the 1st time nobody really comes as themselves. They change there ways to be mannerism , they change their clothes and their style to suit the other person ways and habits . This is typical for an ideal relationship, Afraid of what the other people might think and not wanting to leave the wrong impression.after a while when the ideal becomes a reality what happens?
I once watch a movie name along came Polly it about a man name Reuben who marry his "perfect" lady Lisa   and she became his wife, only to fine out on their honeymoon she was cheating with the scuba instructor Claude. this is a perfect example of a ideal relationship Lisa was the sweetest , kindness and in love until the honeymoon came, The real love kick in and she realize that's was just an idea of a perfect relationship.
Many people believe that the ideal relationship will be the perfect way of living but it proven not to be . later on the person you met earlier wont be the person a couple years later .
