Fortune Telling

There are hundreds of ways to tell fortunes such as astrology, poker and even the fortune teller. Whenever people are wondering their future or lovers are guessing each other or are wondering if they should break up, they go to temples, ask friends, or interpret some sights and happenings in their lives, hoping to settle the uncertainty to know what it is and what will be. To some people, they have to see the future in order to decide which way to choose or what to do. However, I personally have seldom counted the fortune telling. It is not because I do not believe it but I am afraid that I will take the words too serious then it affects my real life. Learning the bad things will happen to me make me nervous and upset. On the other hand, if we know everything in advance, would we be still expecting on something surprising or interesting happened. We should hold slight expectations and hopes which make us happy. In life, the most horrible thing is the loss of hope. Therefore, do not take those predictions too serious. We can take it as a warning but not count on it since we shall then have full control over own lives.

Insomnia

Nowadays, many people suffer from insomnia which is a poor sleeping quality. It might due to different individual reasons. If it goes more serious, it might cause brain damage than affect our normal lives. However, how to sleep well and improve our sleep quality? Here are some of my personal opinions that reduce my poor sleeping quality. Take a shower before sleeping. It clean and wash away my tiredness. Many say that we have to review ourselves everyday. Some people would review during they are sleeping. But I would like to review myself during taking a shower. After it, I would feel fresh after showing. Choose comedy programs than critical or serious programs before going to bed. Many people like to watch TV during the nights. However, sometimes the shows are too serious and too judgmental. It would raise our emotional feelings. So I recommend watching some easy, funny shows instead. We would feel calm and relax before going to bed. Then I will have some hot milk or red wine. Do not drink too much; it will make us sleep better. In summary, some people have difficulty to fall asleep because of different reasons. However, sleeping quality is very important to us because it affects our daily lives. Take a shower to be fresh, watch funny programs, and have some milk or wine before going to bed might help us to fall asleep well.

Stopping an argument

In all relationships, we might have some arguments with our spouse, siblings or even friends. We might argue over silly things, our points and being nonstop. Even we want to end the conflict, we do not know how whenever we are in a bad temper. To stop an argument is not easy thing. There are five tips that we can follow not only to stop the fight but also possible to move our relationships ahead. Firstly, we should not yell. We, normally, would raise our voice when we are arguing in order to defend ourselves. However, when we scream at others, they are very likely to response in the same way. On the other hand, we would feel calm when we listen to a calm voice. Secondly, try to walk away from the scene. We should try to get out of the scene to let both parties to calm down and think things through for a while. Thirdly, we should know what we are arguing about. Sometimes when we are arguing, we totally miss out the point. We might forget the real point but nonsense because we want to win and to stand for ourselves. It is better to sit down and think about what make us argue in the first place. The fourth is to keep the argument simple and easy. Do not get too many people or other things involved. The problem is more resolvable if we do not keep defending our every move. The fifth is to say “I am sorry”. Even we feel that we are innocent for what we have done or have said; it is a good idea to say “I am sorry” first. It will make two parties softer for sure. Briefly, arguing is not a bad thing since we can understand more of each other. However, we should stop the argument to avoid things out of control. Happiness comes from respect and love but fighting. http://www.ehow.com/how_2126063_stop-argument.html
