I have three favorite quotes that I ran across on the internet years ago.
#1. I never in my life learned anything from anyone who always agreed with me.
#2.The biggest sin that we never forgive in each other is a difference of opinion.
#3. The most terrible fight is not when there is one opinion against another,the most terrible is when two men say the same thing and fight about the interpretation.

Dopamine
Medical Definition of Dopamine
Dopamine: An important neurotransmitter (messenger) in the brain.
Dopamine is classified as a catecholamine (a class of molecules that serve as neurotransmitters and hormones). It is a monoamine (a compound containing nitrogen formed from ammonia by replacement of one or more of the hydrogen atoms by hydrocarbon radicals). Dopamine is a precursor (forerunner) of adrenaline and a closely related molecule, noradrenaline. Dopamine is formed by the decarboxylation (removal of a carboxyl group) from dopa.
Dopa is used in the treatment of Parkinson disease. Parkinson disease is believed to be related to low levels of dopamine in certain parts of the brain. When dopa is taken by mouth, it crosses through the blood-brain barrier. Once it has crossed from the bloodstream into the brain, it is converted to dopamine. The resulting increase in dopamine concentrations in the brain is thought to improve nerve conduction and to assist in lessening the movement disorders in Parkinson disease.
In 1970 the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved dopa in the form of L-Dopa, or levodopa, for use in the US. The drug revolutionized the treatment of Parkinson disease.
My Monday motivation just like any other day is when someone tries to convince me that I'm never going to accomplish something that just makes me prove to them that they are wrong.
A family unit to me would be people who are together and there for one another through good and bad times.
A family unit could also be seen as a husband and wife and children who live with either of the parents and who may not for some reason or another have chosen not to dwell together within the very same household.Meaning the husband and wife or who had never been married to one another but chose to have children anyway.
Back in my day as a child the traditional family units existed cause I and my older siblings had been raised in one and the mother's remained home doing what a homemaker did back then and the fathers worked.
But through the years women and men became more focused on their careers.I have witnessed the breakdown of the traditional family unit and the effects it had.It seems to me that parents don't seem to focus on family as people once used to.
My late husband and I had raised our late son in a traditional household.
