BECAUSE IN MY OPINION THEY DO SUFFER FROM LOW SELF ESTEEM!
THEY DO NOT LOVE THEMSELVES! THEREFORE THEY DO NOT LOVE OTHERS!
THEY CHOOSE TO SEE THE BAD IN EVERY ONE!
NEGATIVE PEOPLE NEVER GIVE TO ANYONE A COMPLIMENT!
THEY DO SPREAD HATE!
MY ADVICE IS TO SURRENDER YOUR SELF WITH POSITIVE PEOPLE!
PEOPLE WHO WILL LOVE YOU AND NEVER WILL BRING YOU DOWN!

Hello lovers!

So many blogs about this famous virus so I decided to just post one of my own.

March 2, we had our first case here in Jordan
government took extreme measures in order to protect us.
launched awareness campaign
halted travel to/from different countries . Thousands of passengers from the last few planes that landed here were taken straight to quarantine areas - 5 star hotels for 14 days.
suspended tourist travels. I had to cancel my trips.
March 10, halted all educational institutions operations, public and private sectors closed down, started working from home
March 17, implemented our National Defense Law, total lockdown.
March 22, the government allowed Gas and Water deliveries
March 23, the government allowed doorstep deliveries of water, bread, and baby formula
March 24, small neighborhood grocery and convenience stores along with pharmacies, drinking-water stores and bakeries were allowed to open from 10:00 to 18:00 .on foot only to get basic supplies; vehicles are still not permitted.
Thursday till Sunday morning, no one allowed to go outside.

425 total cases down to 165 active cases, 7 deaths.

Things here look very promising and could go back to normal soon.

Our government acted early and able to control the spread so yes, I believe the quarantine, lockdown are helping...

meanwhile...

I'm working from home for more than a month now. The company decided to make some golden hand sanitizer so we are busy and still in business, very grateful for that, many out there are losing their job.

this lockdown thingy keeps me grounded and brought me closer to loved ones and old friends. From a distance I'm able to organize a group of young people back home to do something for our small community and help the most needy there. Sent some help to buy sacks of rice and groceries to give to the poorest of poor. Also able to give back to my beloved old convent school, with my classmates, we were able to raise some funds to give to our sisters in need and some of our mentors then. Feels good!

Somehow this virus is doing us a lot of good, we sit back, reflect and realize the most important things in life.

Be well and stay safe everyone!

We all know of the house of mirrors, when the circus comes to town...

You can be fat / thin / tall / short

What is urgently required is:
PERSONALITY Mirrors

We'll have some very sick people, about 99%

We all want to be healthy physically and mentally.
In my lifestyle I walk everyday and do aerobic exercise weekly.
I wonder what results have people obtained in their life styles to be in shape.
Please comment your experiences, how much weight you have lost or not.
I also do stretching and weight exercises once in a while.
My metabolism is very slow and weight loss is very difficult. I am average and feel great but sometimes would like to get into those old jeans I used to wear.
Diet is another factor so eating healthy is important too.

The word romance is associated with the notion of being vulnerable in men's minds. They are conditioned to perceive being romantic as being feminine or being a wimp. Even the meaning of the word romance is confusing to men in general.

I took upon myself the task of asking the men whom I encountered in my daily life about their perceptions and definitions of the word romance and discovered that there was no distinct consensus to the concept of romance among men. One individual contemplated for a moment and then he told me that romance signifies making women feeling good at the expense of making men uncertain about their identities.

The final conclusion that I draw from my discussion with men was that they are ignorant about romance as they are about every aspect of a relationship. Watching football all afternoon means being romantic to most men. Going hunting or playing ball with a group of misfits while leaving their ladies keeping the castles clean and tidy for the return of their kings from their trips, is considered romantic by some men. Cooking and cleaning after a hard day at work while the bums sitting watching television without any consideration of offering their help to their ladies, is seen in some distorted minds of men as being romantic. Spending thousands of dollars to buy bowling or golfing equipments while being absolutely stingy when it comes to buying a bouquet of flowers for a special occasion for the ladies in their lives, is conceived in some klutz of men as being romantic. Forgetting the ladies birthdays and anniversaries among other important occasions implies in the men zucchini brains as being romantic. No wonder, women have the justified notion that men are not romantic.

Women whom I encountered expressed their perceptions of romance in a manner that one can draw a common conclusion. The majority of women to whom I posed the question concerning their definitions and their perceptions of romance indicated that they wish to be appreciated, made feel wonderful about their feminine and mental assets and not be taken for granted. Some implied that being given flowers from time to time is conceived as being romantic. Preparing a candle lit dinners for two is perceived as being romantic. Buying an expensive gift and wrapping it nicely to present it to one’s lady would be considered romantic. Walking hand in hand while absorbing the beauty of nature is another manner in which a man can display his romanticism. The problems pertinent to the question of being romantic or not are originated from the variance of the perception of what would be considered romantic among the man and the woman in a relationship.

One must be honest and talk about every aspect of a relationship, including romance upon meeting for the first time and continue the discussion of their expectations from one another concerning being romantic, if the circumstances arise and they become a couple. The apprehension of discussing these issues for the fear of scaring one off, will lead to a disastrous relationship in which the woman, the man or both lack fulfillment of their romantic notions. We are conditioned to be too cautious and afraid to open up which leads to being imprisoned within walls of fear and caution. We wait for the right time, in our conditioned minds to talk freely and when that time arrives for opening up, it is too late because one is too involved to risk it all by opening up. Another factor that leads to the disappointment from the women, men or both sides concerning the fulfillment of the romantic notions within them is the pretension of being romantic that is assumed by the man or the woman to entice the other during the span of their courtship. Both the man and the woman should be completely truthful and be themselves from day one to avoid the heartaches that would result from falling in love with the person the other pretending to be.

From War to Peace
Serving in Rhodesia and other African countries during the wars in the late 70’s and early 80’s the comparison of then and now..

Then: - My eyes saw pain; they saw what no eyes should see, darkness and misery.
Now: - They see life, nature and beauty and beautiful women.

Then: - My ears, they heard the loudness of destruction, they heard the screams.
Now: - They hear music, birds singing, children playing and people laughing.

Then:-My nose, it smelt the nastiness, the acrid cordite and smells I cannot mention.
Now: - I smell the morning air, the coffee, flowers and the scent of a woman’s perfume.

Then:- My hands, they held weapons, they touched death, they touched sadness.
Now: - They touch life, they are tender but they are strong, they can hold hands with a lover, they can wipe tears away, they can still protect those who need protection.

Then: - My heart...My heart just pumped blood, it’s all It was there for.
Now: - I can give love and affection, I can feel my heartbeat faster when I am with someone special, it’s not just pumping blood.

Then: - My Mind and soul...I was just a number, my name taken from me, acceptable as collateral...no more.
Now:-I have a name, I have a personality, I have a soul, I am me...My mind can be shared, best of all I can give love.

Maslow's hierarchy of needs:- (The shortened version).............

He used the terms "physiological", "safety", "belongingness" and "love", "esteem", "self-actualization", and "self-transcendence" to describe the pattern that human motivations generally move through.

Physiological needs:-
Air, water, food, clothing and shelter. While maintaining an adequate birth rate shapes the intensity of the human s*xual instinct.

Safety needs:-
With their physical needs relatively satisfied, the individual's safety needs take precedence and dominate behavior. In the absence of physical safety – due to war, natural disaster, family violence, childhood abuse, etc. – people may (re-)experience post-traumatic stress disorder or transgenerational trauma. job security is required.

Love and belonging:-
After physiological and safety needs are fulfilled, the third level of human needs is interpersonal and involves feelings of belongingness. Friendship, Intimacy, Family

Esteem:-
All humans have a need to feel respected; this includes the need to have self-esteem and self-respect. Esteem presents the typical human desire to be accepted and valued by others. People often engage in a profession or hobby to gain recognition. These activities give the person a sense of contribution or value. Low self-esteem or an inferiority complex may result from imbalances during this level in the hierarchy. People with low self-esteem often need respect from others; they may feel the need to seek fame or glory. However, fame or glory will not help the person to build their self-esteem until they accept who they are internally. Psychological imbalances such as depression can hinder the person from obtaining a higher level of self-esteem or self-respect.

Self-actualization:-
"What a man can be, he must be." This quotation forms the basis of the perceived need for self-actualization. This level of need refers to what a person's full potential is and the realization of that potential. Maslow describes this level as the desire to accomplish everything that one can, to become the most that one can be. Maslow believed that to understand this level of need, the person must not only achieve the previous needs, but master them.

Self-transcendence:-
In his later years, Maslow explored a further dimension of needs, while criticizing his own vision on self-actualization. The self only finds its actualization in giving itself to some higher goal outside oneself, in altruism and spirituality.

--> Now take each separate point into account, and produce Pro’s and Con’s for Maslow Hierarchy of needs.

--> Always ask why, never mind who or what it is. Don’t take anything at face value, get proof first.

--> Live and learn !!! This blog is information, requiring Intelligent investigation within urself.

Hey,
i'm constructing a studio (for temp accomodations) in a workspace behind my house.

So i'm now getting at the point of ordering the bathroom + kitchen build and am still doubting how to divide it..

Are there here any volunteers that can brainstorm with me?
Or give me some advice at my ideas.

The place is about 33m2. groundfloor. One door to the outside, one door to the main house.

BLOGGERS FAMILY.
HAVE A NICE SUNDAY.
