But  it was definitely not the like old times. Returning home is always a  happy moment for me, so I was looking forward to get back home and relax  but suddenly on the national highway, a very delicate moment and my  nephew open the window and bent out of window, I saw him and wanted to  grab my five year old nephew and lost the control of my wheels and went  off track, this was not enough that one of my tyre burst at the speed of  90 and my car got upside down still not stopped and got scrached for  about 50 metres.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I got a seat belt on, so the only survivor of this  accident and everyone got injuries. My beloved nephew got hurt very  badly, almost lost his feet and got skinned off all his back, leg and  hands. We stayed on the footpath for half an hour in the search of help  and finally reached hospital where he stayed a week in an ICU. Doctors  had the first case where they took about 800ml blood and other fluids  from his lungs got severe injuries in legs but still no infections at  all. He lost his four fingers of left leg but got rapid recovery and  cheated death.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;My niece got head injury and some scraches on hands and facial injuries but she recovered fast as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;During  the stay in hospital for about a month, I was cursing myself that why I  got no injuries at all and kids are in severe condition but then God  replied me by a realization that God had saved me to bring them to get  medical help at time as doctors have told me that I was in time  otherwise if little late by 20 minutes and I would have lost my nephew  who is more than anything to me.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Prayers, prayers and only prayers  that have strengthen our family and bring back my kids as it was a  miracle for doctors too to sustain these injuries. I definitely believe  that Lord Jesus is just there to help me every now and then no matter  how worst situation it is.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Only thing to understand that Jesus is the answer of every problems...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6727438662339822936-8103381065936429955?l=aetiyuel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://aetiyuel.blogspot.com/feeds/8103381065936429955/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://aetiyuel.blogspot.com/2011/05/miracles-do-happen.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6727438662339822936/posts/default/8103381065936429955'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6727438662339822936/posts/default/8103381065936429955'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://aetiyuel.blogspot.com/2011/05/miracles-do-happen.html' title='Miracles Do Happen...!!!'/><author><name>Aetiyuel Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Y565_2BSayg/THt1xnjUuYI/AAAAAAAAAEI/L6375vBIHOM/S220/IMG_0346.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6727438662339822936.post-5561801483693783147</id><published>2010-11-30T20:54:00.000Z</published><updated>2010-11-30T20:54:38.401Z</updated><title type='text'>What is Love ... ???</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Love commits no conditions not even  expectations but surely the two way interaction at the most. Love is not  about giving or receiving gifts but about sharing each other's feelings  and letting each other know how much you really care for.You need to be  romantic, creative and unique. The best way to show someone you really  care is by words and how your actions make them feel special. You need  to say something coming from the heart and show them from your Soul.

Sure, we might find it relaxing for a few days, as a break from the engulfment we often feel in the company of others, but after a while any island is going to feel like hell. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;We need to be acknowledged and responded to because it is a fundamental source of our meaning. Babies and young children need others to interact with to form their personalities, and one of the most terrifying things to them is to be left alone. Without this interaction, even in the presence of food and physical protection, they will simply die. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Adults also need interaction with others, even if they can get along longer without it. Loneliness is the absence of meaningful interaction when you want it, and over time it can knaw away at you, either stealing the life from you or driving you to do some desperate things. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The attempt to avoid loneliness is one of the great motivators of human behavior, both functional and dysfunctional.  When you seek sensations, you are trying to drive away loneliness.  You are hoping for some acknowledgement from the world that you exist.  This quest is not always successful, in that the things we do to try to escape loneliness sometimes only make it worse, but loneliness is still the driving force. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The sex drive is a mask for loneliness. Yes, humans are drawn to mate by hormonal responses and a desire for orgasm, but the main thing that colors sex is the feeling that this act is going to relieve ones inner emptiness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;When a man engages a prostitute, he can't realistically expect a meaningful relationship, but at a hidden emotional level he is actually hoping for one.  Even a momentary paid contact with another person feels better than no contact at all—or at least it &lt;u&gt;promises&lt;/u&gt; to feel better when the man is making his plans.  This is why the man needs a live  prostitute and isn't satisfied with, say, pornography or a blow-up doll.  In his imagination at least, the prostitute promises to acknowledge him and love him for who he is. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;It is crazy to think this way, but loneliness makes people do crazy things.  They'll grasp at any chance, no matter how unlikely, to try to relieve it.  They will respond to late-night infomercials, falling for any far-fetched sales pitch to try to relieve their void.  They will buy useless products and wear silly fashions that make them seem part of an interactive group. The fact that these efforts rarely work, except to occupy time, doesn't prevent people from trying. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The funny thing about loneliness is that it isn't really a function of your physical interaction with others.  You can be surrounded by people—a big family, for example—and still be profoundly lonely.  You can be married and involved in a peaceful, caring and outwardly successful partnership, and loneliness still haunts you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Relationships can be some of the loneliest places in the world, as frightening as any desert island, because it's the quality of the interaction that matters, not its quantity.  In fact, it's not even the actual quality of the relationship that determines loneliness but the &lt;u&gt;perceived&lt;/u&gt; quality of it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;If you are raising a busy family and interacting with an attentive spouse, you can still feel lonely if your think these people aren't acknowledging you in ways you see as important.  Many marriages disintegrate on these grounds, because there is nominal interaction but no perceived communication. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;These needs, in fact, are often unfulfillable.  Some people are dissatisfied with every relationship because their expectations are so high.  They expect all of their loneliness to be resolved, all their voids filled up, when in fact loneliness is an unavoidable quality of existence that, if you are truly alive, will come back to haunt you again and again.  Even in the best relationship in the world, you are still going to feel it occasionally. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Loneliness is one of the great human motivators, but that doesn't mean loneliness is solvable.  You can find satisfying engagement for a while, but it doesn't exist in a steady state, and it can't be nailed down.  It is a mistake to think you can wipe away loneliness by, say, getting married or joining a group.  Instead, these things often assure your loneliness in the long run by reducing your ability to change. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Loneliness is the feeling you get when you aren't getting enough... something.  What that something is is the big question.  It's not sex; it's not sensory stimulation and it's not raw social interaction.  When you are lonely, you are missing a certain quality of interaction that's inherently hard to pin down. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;If you are living in a family with 16 siblings and you still feel lonely, it is because you feel that you are not being seen.  What can erase this feeling?  If someone took an interest in you, that might do it, but only for a while.  Sooner or later, in any static relationship, the loneliness is going to return. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The only treatment for loneliness is movement -- not movement for the sake of movement, but the meaningful pursuit of goals. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;You might be stranded on a desert island, but if you added a few people and had an important mission together, your loneliness wouldn't seem nearly so bad.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: cyan;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Source :&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.familycourtchronicles.com/philosophy/loneliness/"&gt;Glenn Campbell&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6727438662339822936-3715824548155854585?l=aetiyuel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://aetiyuel.blogspot.com/feeds/3715824548155854585/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://aetiyuel.blogspot.com/2010/10/loneliness-is-something-that-you-cant.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6727438662339822936/posts/default/3715824548155854585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6727438662339822936/posts/default/3715824548155854585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://aetiyuel.blogspot.com/2010/10/loneliness-is-something-that-you-cant.html' title='Loneliness is Something that You Can&apos;t Share...'/><author><name>Aetiyuel Williams</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Y565_2BSayg/THt1xnjUuYI/AAAAAAAAAEI/L6375vBIHOM/S220/IMG_0346.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
