First of all I want to thank you for your great tips and this enlightening question.
This is a question that makes you think about all the good things you have and how grateful one must be for all of them. My name is Sahar, I'm 35, Iranian, well educated, from a really good family and just recently married to a man I love and he loves me back! (too many big blessings!) I really am thankful for everything I have inside and out. from love, friendship, opportunities, my way of living, my job and even my appearance!
I'm not a beauty but am healthy and that is all I need to be happy about my looks! So,Thank God, I'm thankful for everything, and thanks to you who let me count my blessings and be grateful for all of them. Wish you the best

They are all terrific and I look forward to having everyone home this year for Christmas. I'm grateful for my life and the daily joys and beauty that surrounds me. Karen I am thankful for the internet coz I am able to keep a meaningful long distance relationship with my present boyfriend. He is in canada and I am currently in the Philippines. I would be a lot more thankful if we would be able to finally meet up soon. Hi Tracie,
I am most thankful that I am a mother of 3 beautiful daughters - who each display beauty that comes from deep within. I am thankful for the many things they continually mirror back to me about myself. I am so very thankful for the love my children demonstrate to me, for it has taught me to better love and nurture myself. Angela Perin
Quotes Christmas gift suggestions from Oren Arnold: To your enemy, forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance. To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect. As we struggle with shopping lists and invitations, compounded by December's bad weather, it is good to be reminded that there are people in our lives who are worth this aggravation, and people to whom we are worth the same. ~ Donald E. Westlake ~ Stress at the Mall It’s a malady that tends to strike around holiday time-although it can theoretically happen at any time of the year. You find yourself in a sea of people making its way through your local shopping mall. The crush of the crowd makes you feel claustrophobic. You run from store to store, vying against other shoppers for your turn at the racks. It seems as if no store has exactly what you’re looking for. You hear the strains of carols playing over and over again on store speakers. The lines at the cash registers appear to stretch for blocks. When you finally find something to buy, you get behind someone who has to make a complicated exchange. You wonder if you’ll get home in time to wrap your gift before the office Christmas party. You might not realize it, but even in the best of times, going to the mall can be a stressful experience. You can feel as if you’re undergoing sensory overload as you take in all the sights and sounds around you. There are so many racks to explore…so many clothes to sift through. Because of the variety of stores offered in modern malls, you might wonder where to begin with your shopping. Should you head to the shoe store first-or to the music store? Which store is offering the best sales? It has been said that offering an individual too many choices can be just as-if not more-stressful than only offering a few. Then, there’s the stress inherent in dealing with other people. You have other customers to contend with-customers who can be rude and irritating. You might encounter clerks who don’t know their jobs well, or don’t care if their work is done right. You might even run into managers who seem to care little about the customer’s perspective. You can deal with mall-related stress in any number of ways. To begin with, you can purposely avoid the mall during high-traffic times. You might even consider steering clear of the mall altogether during holiday time. Instead, you might consider shopping online, or through catalogues, or by going to specialty shops. The less you encounter the mall during high-stress times, the more relaxed your holiday shopping is likely to be. Another important tactic to consider is to write down exactly what you need at the mall and keep to the list. In other words, you should resist the urge to impulse buy. Otherwise, you might find yourself saddled with shopping bags filled with merchandise you don’t need and will never use. You could also incur a tremendous amount of unnecessary debt through “binge buying.” Also consider limiting the number of stores you visit at the mall. You shouldn’t feel as if you need to visit as many stores as is humanly possible on each trip. If your shopping is completed after browsing through a single store, simply leave the mall. Otherwise, it’s likely you’ll be wasting precious time and money. Don’t be caught off guard by sales. Some shoppers seem to believe that, just because there’s a sale going on, they need to buy. The fact is, there will always be sales. In order to save money, simply consult your local newspaper in order to scope out the ads of stores having sales in a given week. That way, you can plan out your shopping adventures ahead of time. Otherwise, you can find yourself running from sale to sale and store to store and becoming stressed out in the process. Going to a mall can be therapeutic. Store promotions can be fun and can help to take your mind off your problems. You might enjoy an afternoon makeover or spending a few minutes testing out easy chairs. And mall shopping can be a necessary part of life. However, you have to recognize when you’ve hit your limit. Too much shopping can tax your nerves and can leave you feeling uneasy. What’s more, you can be left with huge bills at the end of the month because of your shopping indulgences. As with most things, mall shopping is best done in moderation. If you shop only when you need to, chances are you will be removing an important stressor from your life.  Two Minutes To Stress Reduction And Relaxation by: Mark Altman This exercise is designed to cleanse your body of stress and tension. It's a variation of deep breathing exercises often associated with Yoga and Meditation. If you haven't looked into deep breathing exercises, you may want to research them, as I'm not going to go describe the technical details in this article. The exercise: Begin by standing in a sturdy comfortable stance, feet shoulder width apart. Breathe in deeply through your nose, and exhale through your mouth. While exhaling, try to feel the breath leaving through the soles of your feet. For the first few exhalations, feel the toxens in your body escape through the soles of your feet. Feel cleansed oxygen and energy enter your body when you inhale. For the next few exhalations, feel the tension and stress melt away. As you inhale, absorb peacefullness and joy. As you exhale, let regrets and negative thoughts about the past disappear. Allow worries about tomorrow slip away. All that remains is the sensation of the breath entering and exiting your body. You can inhale any positive thoughts or emotions you like. Exhale any negative feelings you may have built up during the day. This exercise should leave you feeling invigorated and cleansed of toxens, stress and negativity. About The Author Mark Altman is the webmaster of www.soundsleeping.com sleep-aids and relaxing music.

Abdominal Exercise And Weight Loss by: David McCarthy Abdominal Exercise When most people start on a weight-loss regime the first thing they wish to attack is their waistline. They start off with visions of turning a beer gut into an abdominal six-pack. After a few weeks of strenuous exercise nothing appears to happen and soon they lose confidence and give up. This article is designed to explain, in laymen's terms, why this happens and why you may be using the wrong exercises, or possibly the right exercises at the wrong time. Either way you are doing yourself no favors. Never give up because only losers quit. We've all heard the old saying: "The height of stupidity is to repeat the same thing and expect a different result." If it isn't working you try a different routine and you keep doing that until you find the routine that does work, that is the way of winners. Why These Exercises do not Reduce Waist The first thing you must accept is that all abdominal exercises only strengthen abdominal muscles, if those muscles are covered by a layer of fat when you start they will still be covered by the same layer of fat when you finish. You will have stronger abdominal muscles but you will not look any different. Therefore your attempt to create figure from fat will have failed. The secret to making these abdominal exercises work is to lose fat first. You lose fat by diet and aerobic exercise, by burning more calories than you take in with food. When you have reduced your waistline to a more natural size you can then take up abdominal exercises and start working on that perfect six-pack. Weight Loss In a nutshell you need to reduce your calorie intake and burn some calories off by using light exercise. Losing weight can only be achieved by eating less and moving more. Forget the complicated scientific formulae, it all boils down to eating less and moving more. Exercise Wisdom Conventional wisdom claims that you need to exercise for 30-minutes each day and that this demand can be broken down to six five minute sessions or three ten minute sessions, whichever suits you best. You can carry out aerobic exercise using simple methods like parking your car as far from the store as possible and forcing yourself to walk further. Maybe walking up the stairs instead of using the escalator, any small act of this nature that adds to your normal exercise output is aerobic exercise and burns calories. Eating habits Furthermore it makes sense to eat five or six meals each day rather than two or three. Why? Because you will eat smaller meals and it is better for your metabolism to deal with smaller meals rather than large meals. You can also eat between these meals providing you restrict it to a piece of fruit or a raw carrot. Dieting doesn't have to be hard it has to be sensible. Your brain doesn't get the message that your stomach is full for at least twenty minutes after it is full. How often have you eaten way beyond the capacity that is required simply because the message hasn't got through? Conclusion There is no point in attempting abdominal exercises while you still have a layer of fat and expecting a figure improvement. Muscle building and weight loss are separate subjects that should be approached individually if you are to get the best results.
