pick your taste of candy!

Loving many people at the same time is like eating candies with different flavors.
It's fun because you get to taste all of them.
But once you're done, and when they're all gone, can you tell which candy was the sweetest?

STOP FOOLING AROUND. Learn to let things go. Accept that you cannot have everything.
STICK WITH SOMEONE WHO MAKES YOU HAPPY.
get rid of the other candies and do yourself a favor, STAY WITH THE ONE WHO LOVES YOU MOST.

Nurses Week

Nurses lead the way in showing an elderly patient how to manage his or her diabetes. They lead the way in making sure their patients – children and adults – get the vaccinations they need. They lead the way in helping our young moms learn how to care for their infants. And they lead the way in conducting research to promote high-quality life for those with chronic illnesses, and to help all of us stay healthy across the lifespan.

And nurses, our trusted advisers on health issues, led the way in reaching out to their patients, neighbors, and families to make sure they enrolled in health insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. Nurses, who are on the frontlines of health care, know firsthand how important coverage can be to their patients: to their health, their peace of mind, and their financial security.

We’re continuing to rely on nurses to help educate patients, some of whom had never had health insurance before, on how to use their newly acquired coverage to get the vital preventive and primary care they need. Nurses are also helping patients use new health information technology tools to manage their own care and ultimately improve their health.

National Nurses Week History                  

By: The American Nurses Association (ANA)

National Nurses Week begins each year on May 6th and ends on May 12th, Florence Nightingale's birthday. These permanent dates enhance planning and position National Nurses Week as an established recognition event. As of 1998, May 8 was designated as National Student Nurses Day, to be celebrated annually. And as of 2003, National School Nurse Day is celebrated on the Wednesday within National Nurses Week (May 6-12) each year.

The nursing profession has been supported and promoted by the American Nurses Association (ANA) since 1896. Each of ANA's state and territorial nurses associations promotes the nursing profession at the state and regional levels. Each conducts celebrations on these dates to recognize the contributions that nurses and nursing make to the community. The ANA supports and encourages National Nurses Week recognition programs through the state and district nurses associations, other specialty nursing organizations, educational facilities, and independent health care companies and institutions.

insanity

The legal distinction between sanity and insanity rest upon free will.

Insanity is an illegal concept, it is not a medical or psychiatric term, but despite the fact that insanity is an illegal concept, it doesn't mean that someone is not sick.

Grudges

I recently received an abrasive and angry text message from someone falsely accusing me of something that on a personal level. I was shocked and hurt. My initial instinct was to reply something hurtful back in an act of self defense. My second instinct was to give him a list of reasons why he was wrong, in an attempt to refute his false accusations, thus defending my ego.

In the end my rational self know that engaging with him would only trigger more negativity, so I did stopped. I woke up the next morning with defensive thoughts running through my head, like a dark clouds hovering over me. Thoughts of something keep dancing around my mind that seemed to be a never ending cycle.

I thought about the anger a lot, and anger usually thought of being bad and destructive. There are some who argue that this is misconception. Anger itself is neutral. We may express anger in healthy and destructive ways. Healthy expression of anger enhances communication and personal growth.

I hated this feeling, in fact I hated the feeling of hating this feeling. I’m still pissed at him for the damage he did and at myself for allowing it all to go on for as long as it did. I came to point of realizing that he’s not sitting around upset about any of this, I feel stupid, I let this things happened. I let him control my life and my feelings for too long already…I refuse to give him any control over how I feel now.

When your hurt by someone you love and trust, you might become angry, sad or confused. If you dwell on hurtful events or situations, grudges filled with resentments, vengeance and hostility is developed. Never allow negative feelings to crowd out positive feelings, you might find yourself swallowed-up by your own bitterness or sense of injustice. I knew I had to release this energy to set myself free.

Now, he is no longer in control, his behavior no longer affect my life…I’m rebuilding my life, my way and be a better person. I am now responsible for whatever I want to do, what I should feel, how I should react---I am in control.

She becomes a great cook. An inspired cook. A cook so good that when the guy with the trousers tastes one of her desserts, he falls in love. "We kissed in a vanilla cloud,'' he tells his secretary.
