Happy Quiters
People picture people who smoke cranky and always mad because they are taking them away from their pride and joy. No doubt quitting cancer sticks will ensure better health but no one looked how it effected their pschycological well-being. Addiction and fright are not good do quitting. My grandpa smoked damn near his whole life, starting when he was in his 20's. Quitting has been off and on for him, off, on, off, on, etc. He finally quit this year and I've noticed a difference. He doesnt get as mad and overall is just happy. So if your a smoker, quit now and be happy the rest of your life! :)
Sexual Orientation
Most people are heterosexual. They tend to like the opposite sex. Some people are homosexual, attracted to the same sex. Some are bisexual, attracted to both sexes. There are actually more than 3 sexual orientations. Some people just aren't interested, some people tend to dress as the opposite sex. This is only naming a small portion. Psychologists have come with theories as to why homosexual orientation exsists, but are truly baffeled, as no true answer is apparent. As you read through this blog, keep an open mind, and see how many of these apply to you. It doesn't mean you are homosexual or bisexual.
Personality
Each person desires something different from others. One may want prosperity, one may want success, one may want failure (it has happened). Everyone wants something different. One child may suffice playing with him/herself, where another may have a handful of friends, and still need more. One child may get little affection from his/her parents and be greatful, where another may get more, but still want even more. Many men with homosexual preferences tend to be more sensitive. They can be "in love" easier, but also get hurt easier.
Biology
It is very doubtful that biology plays a part, but there may be some hints that there is a gene or chromosome that differs from a heterosexual's own. Most homosexuals know that they are attracted to the same sex at a very early age, which can almost immediately identify this. Some wont know until late in life, possibly by a tramatic event with a loved spouse. There is no true evidence that says homosexuality is biological though.
Paternal Relationships (for men with a heterosexual father)
The relationship with a father can mean the difference between homosexuality and heterosexuality. If the relationship was not well, homosexuality is likely to occur. If the relationship was very well, heterosexuality is likely to occur.
Maternal Relationships (for men)
The relationship with a mother can also be important. The mother can either allow a strong relationship with a father, or dominate and diminish the relationship with the father. If the wife-husband relationship was not well, and a divorce took place, you may not have been able to see what the relationship was suppose to look like. If this happened, you may not have had the "correct" image of a boy. I quoted correct because it is not neccessarily correct or incorrect.
Self-worth
Low self-worth and self-esteem are common in homosexual males and females. Usually the same sex can understand each other better, as they have more likelihood of being in the same situation. Those who understand each other are usually better in companionship.
homosexuality is becoming more common, but less accepted today. My belief is that homosexuals may not be able to breed and repopulate, but people love who they love. Allow them to live a long, happy, prosporous life without hurting their self-esteem more than it is. They wont become straight, unless they are bi-curious, which may not even happen then. Please, allow them a fruitful and happy life. They probably deserve it.

Social Rejection
We've all suffered the pain and/or fear of social rejection. We want to be accepted as people by people. If not, we are made fun of, and cast away from the "cool people". These people are often referred to as "loners", basically saying that they are alone. This can be because of their style of dressing, their religious view, what ever reason people can and will find. People try to find the flaws in others to subdue the flaws in themselves. Social Rejection is something to be taken seriously, as people have commited suicide when they were not accepted.
Fear
Fear is a distressing negative sensation induced by a perceived threat. It can be brought up by specific stimuli such as pain, or danger. This leads to the "fight or flight" responce, which allows you to choose (very quickly) whether or not to fight, or run away. In extreme fear, a sort of shock in which the body goes num, the thoughts are racing, and a type of rigor mortis, or disuse of the muscles takes place. In essence, you can't move. Today, we use fear as a fun activity. Haunted houses, scary movies, all types of things we use to engage fear and laugh. Scientists say it is possible that we may even be curing phobias by provoking the fear hormone. Common fears that exsist include, but are far from limited to: ghosts, evil powers, bugs, animals, heights, water, closed space, tunnels, bridges, needles, failure, social rejection, public speaking, fire, etc. There are many fears, just about of everything that exsists in the world. Fear is a commonly known thing, that may be pleasant, or painful. Don't be fearful of how you use it, as it can only help.
Music
Music is widely loved, and widely cherished. Most people adore music, and don't know what life would be like without it. It has been used since before the medieval times. Some people are effected by the mood of music. For instance, sad music strikes a sad feeling, whereas happy music strikes feelings of happy and joy. My personal favorite song to make me happy is I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. I can sing along with it, which allows happiness. Singing and dancing can engage a certain hormone which provokes happiness. Sing, dance, and listen to joyful music and the world will be at your feet.
Lord of the Flies
Lord of the Flies was a novel, and a movie about a group of people on a plane. The plane crashed down, and none of the adults survived the crash, leaving the boys to fend for themselves on a nearby island. Psychology has its name writen all over the cover of this story. It takes hold of the whole story. Government was one boy's idea, Ralph. He ran the other boys for a short while, but most finally rebelled. This is because it is within the human mind to push away from those who want to help, and those who want to lead, and try to do things for ourselves. Piggy, Ralph's friend, is killed by the rebels. Could this be because they didn't want Ralph around? Because they were annoyed of Piggy? Because they wanted to push Ralph to his limits? All possiblities, all psychology.
2012
Why does 2012 have people packing food in their basements, collecting water to drink, and afraid for their lives? Because everyone else is. What will you do? Will you pack food in the basement, or will you sit back and relax? That's what determines your need to follow. 12, 21, 2012 is the end of the mayan calender. That's all. Do you believe that the mayans could foresee the future? Or do you think that the mayans just ran out of room on there stone calender? It's your choice.
