Celebrating Traditions—or Why Hosting a Quinceanera is a Grand Thing
And I stopped and thought about how these traditions come and stay. About how generations of children have celebrated religious heritages with bar/bat mitzvahs and christenings and baptism parties; about how American girls have Sweet Sixteen’s and how Latin girls have Quince’s. About weddings. And how these events occur just once in a lifetime. Once or twice in a family.

Finding Missing People is Far Easier than it Used to Be
There are 2 types of missing people: the vulnerable and the non vulnerable. A large percentage of folks who go missing will return safe and sound within 72 hours but there are still tens of thousands each year who do not. If they are of adult age, the police do little to help unless there is reason to suspect foul play.

The Psychology of Long Distance Relationships
Why do long distance relationships seem to be more passionate than other types? Psychologists say that it is human nature to want what we can't have. Throw a little sexual desire into that mix and you have the kind of romantic and sexual angst that is the stuff of great romance and literature.

But keeping the communication going is essential to a satisfying relationship for both parties.

Musings on Gift Giving and Gift Baskets
Traditionally we give gifts at Christmas time and at birthdays. As our society has become more affluent our gifts at Christmas time have become more elaborate and more expensive, especially in the case of our children. Gone are the days when a string of beads, a book, or a soccer ball were acceptable gifts to give our children. Now it is ipods and Tamagochis and Play Stations and X Box consoles.

Letting Go is Hard to Do: Reflections on Relationships
Letting go can feel like jumping out of a plane without a parachute. The relationship may have ended weeks or months or years ago, yet you can't get him or her out of your mind. We want to deny the relationship has ended. Letting go allows you to close one chapter of your life and to be able to start a new one with a clean page. If you keep thinking about an ex either with love or hate or fear or find yourself comparing all your dates to a former partner you are having trouble letting go.

There are incidents in our life where we have to disclose some news or have to say something to people close to us...known to us where we are aware that it may hurt them. For Example read the following:

2) All in your team got increments and promotions, except two people...disclose this news to them.
3) You father is serious and he is in hospital...sharing this news with your sibling.
4) Your daughter has appeared for “Chartered Accountant Exams” but failed...now share it with her.
5) Giving “honest” feedback to your spouses...about their looks.
6) Giving “honest” comment to your friends about their behavior and habit.

How to Get the Most Out of Your Relationship
Good relationships take work. I have witnessed many potential good relationships fail due too poor or ineffective communication, an inability to meet each other needs and by having unrealistic expectations of the relationship in general. The fact is, most of us don't know always know the things we can do to improve our relationships. Contrary to popular belief, its not always how much love you have for each other that can predict the success of your relationship, but ultimately it comes down to how conflicts and disagreements are handled.
