ENJOYING YOUR LIFE

Sometimes we just need to cry;

We just need to let for a little while;

Most of our days are spent being strong, being in charge, taking care of others;

But if we don't STOP for a while and allow ourselves' to feel;

Then we will become numb to our own selves';

So remember to take care of you;

And if crying is what you need to do;

Allow yourself to shed tears of healing;

For crying is one of the most therapeutic tools there are;

And it's one we need to practice on a regular basis;

Just because you cry doesn't mean you are weak;

It's how we were created;

It's a form of release;

So make sure you are taking care of you first;

For taking care of others is not possible;

Unless first you take care of yourself.

YOU THINKING OF RETIRING EARLY AND STILL FINANCIALLY COMFORTABLE??? TIPS

Many of us want to retire early. That early retirement age might be 35, 40, or 50, but the idea is to retire sometime before the age of 65 and start enjoying life — before age and infirmity catch up with you.

The reality, though, is that the dream of early retirement will remain a dream unless you take action.

Here are 5 steps to take that will help you reach your goals of early retirement:•

Make early retirement a priority

 You say you want to retire early, but have you made the necessary commitment? Look at the way you use your financial resources. What do your actions say about your financial priorities? If you really want to retire early, you have to make it a priority — and you’ll have to make tradeoffs.

 That means that you have to give up less important things in the present in order to achieve your long-term priority of early retirement.•

Be Realistic in your expectations

 Next, you need to look at your financial situation realistically. If you’re 35, have no savings plan, and $10,000 in your retirement account, you’re going to have to make some very big changes in order to retire by age 50. Look at realistic investment returns (not the 10% predictions that many tout for stocks), and plan for conservative returns. Any plans you make must be based in reality.•

Create a plan

 Armed with the willingness to commit and realistic expectations, it’s time to create a plan. Your early retirement plan should help you save enough money each month to reach your retirement goals. This means that you have to consider cutting your expenses, and changing what you do with your money, in order to meet the requirements of your plan. And don’t forget about having an investment strategy, as well. Investing is the only way to build up enough wealth to retire early and comfortably.•

Make your plan work

 You need to put effort into making your plan work. This might mean cutting unnecessary expenses from your budget. It might mean spending less and hoarding your money until you reach your goals. It’s true: trying to retire early can mean sacrifice now.Another way to make your plan work is to increase the amount of money you make. If you know you won’t make your goal of early retirement in 20 years and you just can’t cut it anymore, try to earn more money. Improve your marketability so that you qualify for a pay raise.

Start a side hustle.

 Look for ways to increase your income so that you can put more money towards making your early retirement plan work.•

Don’t forget diversity

 Don’t forget diversity as you invest and adhere to your plan. You need the right asset allocation to see retirement portfolio success. It can also help to build diverse sources of income that can help you weather various storms before and during the retirement years. With the right income sources and asset allocation, you can get through setbacks without putting your early retirement goal at risk.

KIDS AND THE RESPECT CULLTURE

An old woman is on the floor with a bag next to her. She asks the passing school girls for any amount of cash, but the girl refuses with a middle finger. Her friends clearly don’t notice the situation, let alone care about it. The helpless woman just looks at her in desperate pain and shock as the little girl just smirks at her.

This picture breaks my heart. The senile woman is on the floor in beautiful, cultural garments, but asks for a mere donation. The girl in modern school clothing gives her a thoughtless and ignorant “f### you.”

I don’t know where this picture was taken, but it depicts what our future has become: children disrespecting elders like they were vermin killed flat on the road. I’ve seen this in many places. Little kids on their cell phones undermining what their parents have to say, little kids cussing like there’s no tomorrow, little kids worrying about their looks rather than their family. It’s everywhere; culture and respect are both dying. It’s because of the influences that these kids can easily access: media, drugs, adultery. Our world is losing grasp of the future, and we can only watch as the next generation become total monsters.

RELATIONSHIP TIPS: VACATION WITHOUT THE KIDS

QUESTION:IS IT SELFISH TO WANT TO TAKE A VACATION WITH JUST MY WIFE FOR A WEEK?

Relationship Tip: A vacation alone is anything but selfish. If you can afford a vacation and can arrange both time off and good child care, there's no reason not to take a vacation without the kids and every reason to get away for few days or a week.

 Here are our relationship tips (and reasons why you should get away as a couple!):

We often get so caught up in our children and their pursuits that we forget about our partner and the marriage suffers. It's important to have regular time together before you have relationship questions and problems.

In this age of hyper-parenting many parents stop thinking about their marital bond and immerse themselves 100 percent in their children's pursuits and happiness. Being overly involved in children's lives does the children a disservice, and the pressures of parenting 365 days a year can create all manner of friction and unhappiness in a marriage.

Getting away without the kids will give you time to yourselves and time to remember what your relationship was like before you had kids.

Let's face it without the kids around, it will be a lot easier for you to rekindle the flame and get romantic!

You're not selfish at all. Wanting to spend time with your wife is a lovely sentiment one we're sure she'll appreciate! And maybe once you return home, your kids will appreciate you both more too
