Emotions are real. Under no circumstance will we get far in our quest for a better life if we do not respect emotions. I say through our encounter with life with upload emotional residue. To me it is residue because at the time of the event it was okay, but by now we should of let go of it. It is okay though. Every thing we experience is valid because we are humans and this how we function. The however, is that overwhelming emotion can interfere in our desire for a better li...

It hurts because we think it should hurt. Through our life we have been receiving messages that we are to blame for what happens. Blame is a bad thing. People who mess up are to blame and need to be punished. For some this means being spanked, locked in a closet, or been ridiculed by a parent and others. That is right even as pre adults, young adults, or grown ups we fear the punishment that comes from doing something wrong Some people have even been so abused as children th...

Romance leads to things we rarely ever think about. Few people think about parenthood and spousal hood when they are daydreaming about the perfect mate. Our first encounter with romance is when we are around 8 and 10. At this age, we play games about having a boyfriend or a girlfriend. These are only games and we have no awareness about our emotions or the other person’s emotions. Then we enter in to our first crush. This is probably the first time we become aware of the emotion of ...

Real Love What is real love? Well I see love as an emotion. Ironically, as much as it is important, it is also a hard emotion to describe. Emotions like anger, joy, or happiness are easy to understand. However, romantic love is hard to describe. I would say we know we have this love for another person when we think of that person and we are overwhelmed by a god emotion we cannot describe. Of course, in the interest of correctness, I have to qualify some terms. I am actually ...

Okay so you upset your woman and you do not know why. Women like all people are like little children. Every one of us cops an attitude when we do not get what we want. Women are no different. This paper is for men who have failed in meeting their romantic partners intimacy needs and now find themselves receiving the cold shoulder or being treated to crass comments. Your partner is rebelling against the little attention (if any) she is getting from you. The solution is to fir...

It is hard to imagine how we got to be so persecutory and anti-everything. I do not see a common shared decency in people. Everyday, I see examples of man’s inhumanity to man: and I not talking about what goes on in countries that are run by ruthless dictators. I am talking about the dirty looks, antagonistic comments, and right down viciousness of people. Where I am working right now there are two women that have taken upon themselves to cause me a lot of grief. They are always...

You have to be real. Regardless of the person you really are, in order to have success in romance you have to be a real person. Now I know that a lot has changed. People are more liberal about their sexual practices. Most people this day are having sex before marriage. I also know that most people are confused about intimacy and romance. The person you are with is very good at communicating their needs and interest. You may not wish to pay attention or listen to them. Howe...

This may sound phony. However, our first thought, when we wake up should be " Do I like myself?" We are going to go out and confront life and our spirit is what is going to get us through it. If we do not like ourselves, how are we going to make it? Well it is going to be rather hard. Every negative thought is going to keep weighing on you until you are completely frustrated and exhausted. Therefore, consider your true-life experience. How bad can your life really be. You h...

Bagging a Babe So you have some reservations about your ability to get some ones attention. Well the problem is that you have not had a good look at yourself in the mirror. Now, having read the last statement may make you want to plan my untimely death. However, the reality is that all romantic quests begin with a thorough introspection. You should be looking for all your personal qualities that turn people off. In addition, regardless of popular opinion that gives the impression t...

Psycho-Identity Complex By Mr. Jesus Lopez-Ledesma The following paper is my perception of the development of individual human nature. I see the creation of human nature as the result of the human constitution interacting with the environment. I define environment as all sources of information. In my formulation of my theory, I have identified several terms. These terms are Contemporary American Industrial Society, Psycho-Identity Complex, Functional Operationalism, Personal ...

Overview of Human Psychological Theories By Mr. Jesus Lopez-Ledesma The following pages are my review of the ten psychotherapy techniques discussed in Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy. Through this review I ignored parts of theories that I did not see significant. In addition, I directly quoted when I believed that the exact quote was needed in order to understand the principle. Moreover, I have held my observations of the individual theories until the end. I h...

I say that the first challenge is to give God His rightful place in our lives. Another challenge is for for women to stop thinking their it and don't have to do their part in a relationship. No man wants to spend the rest of his life having to justify the 101 criticisms that are lobbed at him every second of time He spends with his partner. Right now I would say that the major relationship problem is getting over our phoniness that we have an answer for everything. The fear of being f...

Every day we face a lot. There are thoughts of unresolved issues, work, relationships, groceries, bank visits, children, traffic, and many more demands and challenges. Through our day, we will contemplate life and place in life. For many people these thoughts will lead to depression and hopelessness. God has stopped being an important issue in many people’s life. Some people who have a relationship with God still suffer from a lack of direction and purpose. I th...
