Saturday!!!! My Saturday!!!
As everyone already knows, there are seven days in a week. In a normal person's life, those days might be divided into three categories: work, personal, and reverence.

5 Things the Universe is Always Trying to Tell You
1. You Are Loved We all sometimes feel as if we are alone, unloved, or unworthy- But God, Source, or the Universe disagrees. There is an unconditional love that is always present through Source (God, Universe, etc.). Every moment of every day, throughout everything we do - good or bad, we have access to that love. We just need to learn to silence our thoughts and look past our ego to open ourselves up to the voice of Source. This can be done by practicing meditation, mindfulness, and other methods of quieting our thoughts like yoga, taking a bath, driving, journaling, or listening to music.

10 Most Inspirational TED Talks For Personal Growth

How Positive Emotions Can Be Life Changing
For a long time now negative emotions have been identified as necessary emotions; they help to initiate the "fight or flight" mode when in danger. The negative emotions we experience help us narrow in on the danger and then make a decision that is in our best interest based on the danger we are facing. If you are feeling depressed, you know you should take some actions such as watching a good comedy, having a visit with good positive friends, and other activities to lift the mood. If you feel you are in danger from a person or an animal, you know that you may need to flee or stand your ground to fight the situation. The negative emotions allow us to narrow our perceptions to the situation.

Who Am I Actually?

Courage!
COURAGE!!! Some people have it and most of us don't. What is courage? According to Wikipedia, "Courage (also called bravery or valour) is the choice and willingness to confront agony, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. Physical courage is bravery in the face of physical pain, hardship, death or threat of death, while moral courage is the ability to act rightly in the face of popular opposition, shame, scandal, discouragement, or personal loss. The classical virtue of fortitude (andreia, fortitudo) is also translated 'courage', but includes the aspects of perseverance and patience." That is the denotation and some connotation of the word COURAGE.
