In this time of economical crisis what are you doing to get ready for whats coming? So many people are being layed off on a daily basis. What is this world coming to? What are the upcoming months going to bring us? What are you doing to get ready for the unexpected? People devote their lives to work and now they end up with nothing. I know someone that devoted their life to work for 30 years. This person came from the Dominican Republic to have a better future and now this person has nothing. All their money earned through hard work is gone. All their money saved is gone. With the high expense of renting in new york and the cost of eating rising how are they expecting people that work minimum wage jobs to survive? This is survival of the fittest and in reality only the rich and famous appear to be surviving. They are getting paid millions of dollars to entertain, while others are working twice as hard and barely making ends meet. Living paycheck to paycheck in order to survive and feed their family. It's hard to imagine what life will be like months from now without feeling nervous. So many minorities dont have the funds to survive and losing their jobs which is all they can count on to survive and feed their family is not what they need right now. There are individuals that are basting in millions of dollars and still want more. They are so greedy and heartless that they dont think about helping the economy get better but instead for themselves to get better. What is this world coming to?
Its hard to see so many people walking down the street looking so down and depressed worrying about how they are going to make ends meet. Its hard to see people talking about not knowing what they will be doing when the little they have saved on disappears and they have nothing left. Its hard to see people hungry because they dont have enough money to eat with or have to eat just a little bit so they can have enough for the rest of the week. It's only getting worse and with all these budget cuts when is it going to get better?

I'm not sure why is this but it seems that everywhere i go and all the tv channels i flick to, even the spanish ones it appears to be that alot of them are focusing on the spread of HIV. Its amazing the stories you hear concerning this topic. I heard stories of a lady that was happily married with three kids and then found out that she had HIV and her three daughters as well had it. This obviously happened years ago the girls are in their 20's but it shows how careless things were done before. Mothers werent being tested for this disease. One other lady said that she found out she had the disease when she was 7 months pregnants, the disease wasnt spread to her daughter because something i quite didnt understand. She was also married though. This comes to show that who can you really trust when you are being sexually active?
More and more indivduals are being sexually active and not protecting themselves with the high percentage in people being affected you would think more precautions would be taken. Right now as im sitting here im hearing of case of a older woman that is infected with HIV. She got it through the use of drugs, she was so addicted to drugs she was taking every needle she found and stabbing herself with drugs. She was raped by different men and had 6 children. Her oldest daughter died of the disease. Her other five she had years without knowing anything about them. Its amazing how this disease is being spread through individuals. Nowadays you dont know who its safe to have sex with, you cant trust that person that you might be with. Personally, even when i was in a relationship with one guy i always got myself tested. Its important to get yourself tested and the person you are with. Before you decide to be sexually active with someone make sure that you take the proper precautions. Go and get yourself tested and tell your partner to get tested as well. Its better to be safe then find out after that you got infected.
As much as you can trust someone you never really know or they might not really know whether they are infected or not. There's people that spread the disease and choose to spread teh disease because they got infected by someone and they are so upset that they decide to spread the disease to the next person. Recently in another state a woman was released from jail after ten years for purposely interacting in sexual intercourse knowing that she was infected with the disease. She said that she wanted revenge because her ex-boyfriend gave her the disease. Not only that but some people cheat and get infected in the process and then come home to their partner.This does exist people, some people do think this way. As well, many individual interact in one night stands, and then do it without a condom. So again i ask myself, when do you really trust the person you are with? When is it safe? How can we become more aware?
My best advice is to be cautious who you are with, be cautious who you decide to be sexually active with and make sure to not only use a condom but get tested. It's sad to hear all these stories.

When do you really know?
When do you really know if the love being given is real? Should you believe that after spending time with someone and giving that person your all but not being given your all in return that its truly love? So many people mistake love for lust, they tell each other how much they love each other but do they really mean it? It seems many times theres always one person in the relationship thats giving 100% while the other is giving 75%. Its hard to love so much that you cant realize that the other person isnt showing you the same amount of love, that you let the other person hurt you, call you names, abuse you emotionally and treat you like your "just another"
Many people in relationships love so much that they cant see behind the doors of that person. They love so much that they forgive the other individuals actions because they feel like forgive and forget is the best thing to do. They are so afraid of losing the other that they accept all their faults. When is it enough? When do you say stop? When do you really know that its love?
Do you continue to believe that the other person is going to one day change? Do you stay committed to this person because you love them but deep inside you feel so unhappy because you know that this is all wrong?
Some people dont realize what they have until its gone. They have a person by there side that supports them, loves them, is always there for them no matter what but they dont see it. They pay so much attention to everything and everyone else around them other then that person thats giving up their life for them. When is it enough? Well...its enough when you realize how unhappy you are and when you realize that your not being treated the way you deserve to be treated.
Its crazy because when you decide to walk away from the person its the hardest thing but it slowly becomes easier. The person then realizes that you were the one. What do you do then? Give them another chance? Continue to walk away? That answer is all within you, by using your heart, and your mind you will know which way to go. But remember a person that treated you unfair for many years its very hard for them to change. But maybe they will how do you really know?

So...a New Year has just begun. Basically what they say is in with the new out with the old. But how can you just leave the old behind. Are we that powerful to leave everything thats old behind without turning back? Without going back not even to just think? Without going back and say What if? Its hard to just leave everything that is in your past behind and not even stopping to think back to it. Even when we try our hardest to leave the past behind it takes time. We can't just wake up one day and say "thats it my past is in the past" because even if we try a slight memory always comes back. Even when we try not to think about our past something always haunts us and doesnt let us let go of that past memory. It could be love, friendship, family, matters of life but it always comes back. So how do we forget the past, how do we move on and leave everything behind. Well it takes time we just can't forget everything right away, we have to live with it and realize that slowly but eventually it will be forgotten or replaced with another memory.
