How to accept living in poverty, contentment in the poor house.??
Things You’ll Need: * Good Company * The 3 Necessities Step1 Keep your head. Don't let poverty overwhelm you with grief. This condition applies especially to people who were once wealthy, as it can be very challenging to make the adjustment. It is way too easy to look around and be convicted by lack. Don't get depressed. Just accept that at this point in your life, you are going through this stage. Step2 Be content with just life. You are alive, be grateful. Be grateful for being able to sleep in a bed, and actually wake up again. Life is not about money, life is about life. Be content by being grateful for your life which gives money meaning, not the other way around. Step3 Be content with your 3 necessities. Food, clothing and shelter are infinitely more valuable than riches, mansions and a Porsche. Even though a flawless diamond is more expensive than clean water, living without water will end your life while a diamond does nothing to preserve it. Step4 Rearrange your value system People put more value on money in their minds than it is literally worth. Put your happiness at the top of your value totem pole. Adopt an open mindedness that revolves around other things than money. Step5 Be content with today. Be grateful that today wasn't the day when "the man" came and cut off your cable, bringing you back to the stone age tube with wire hangers and aluminum foil. Be grateful that today wasn't the day that Rent-A-Center came and repossessed your entire house. Be grateful that today is today, and that you have today to live as a you have it. Step6 Look forward. Look toward opportunities that may help you improve your financial situation. Try your best, but don't be overwhelmed if the plan fails, and if it succeeds remember to be content at every level of life.

I found out the child I am sponsoring is muslim. I Don't know what to do.?
Since you know the country, you can know whether the child is being raised to hate Christians or whether he/she is being raised a moderate. For instance, Iran is teaching from the age of 7 to hate by their public school system while Lebanon is teaching moderate Islam and due to the backlash against Hezbollah, Islam's extremists are reaping a bad reputation. Were I the one supporting this child, I'd consider whether or not the child I am paying to support is being taught appreciation of my gift to them or whether they are being taught to consider my philanthropy foolish. If you're still bent on picking the religion to support, you can stipulate in your contract with the organization who you will support. I would pick a different organization, like 'Feed the Children' which is a Christian organization and have similar agendas to your own. I think your reticence is justified on the basis of what they're being taught. Not on the basis of their birthright. If you are not prepared to research this, then politely bow out and find a Christian based organization to support. You're still not going to be able to pick on the basis you stated. If you want to minister to the people of that religion specifically, you should check out K.P. Yohannan's ministry. His organization is not about food for the body as much as food for the spirit, but the people they support can correspond with you about this region and its people with a great deal of knowledge. They are lay pastors and native missionaries. http://judgeright.blogspot.com
Best ways to shut down a liberal in a political argument?
The very first fundamental building block of all liberal thought, policy, values and beliefs are based on specific, fundamental, and very alluring lies. All liberal rhetoric is justification of those lies. Keep in mind liberal lemmings may be intelligent and even decent people but they always believe the lies. Tell them government must always take in more money then it gives out because they have to hire an army of bureaucrats to confiscate the money and another army of bureaucrats to distribute the money. The poor will always get les than the amount taxed. Tell them homosexual marriage is only being proposed as a cash cow for divorce and trial lawyers. The rich will never pay their fair share. Tell them the poor and middle classes pay all taxes. Rich people who get tax increases only make employees work harder for less. and raise prices. Then tell them you don't think it's fair to raise prices on the poor and middle class and cause more unemployment just so you can take more money from the rich. Tell them guns (well you can't tell them anything about guns they will listen to) One man's terrorist is not another man's freedom fighter because freedom fighters fight for freedom and they don't target exclusively innocent women and children. It's immoral to cut off people's heads while praying to God. One of my favorites is: All wealth comes from sales. All Jobs come from profits. All infrastructure, public schools, libraries, roads, bridges, dams ... come from profits. All government revenue is derived from profits. If you want government to do something you better make sure business makes enough profit for the government to spend.

What is something you want to "get off your chest"?
I got gang raped.Gang. Raped.I'm going to give some details… so I guess trigger warningI went to a fish market with my uncle and grandma. My grandma is old and can't walk very well so I was waiting with her for my uncle to get some fish. This huge man comes and picks me up from behind. I'm pretty strong, but this man was much stronger. He grabbed me and ran as I screamed for my uncle to help me. He came too late.So. The big man “A”The other men are “B” “C” and “D”A grabbed me and brought me to a cornerB C D take turns throwing me against a fence as they all undress. They all are on me at the same time. One would be one my face making me suck his dick. One would be masturbating on my chest. One would be doing whatever he wanted on my vagina. One would be holding down my legs.They tied down my arms above my head, stripped me naked, did their rotations, and broke my ankle.I kept squirming so they punched me, gagged me, and stabbed right below my ribcage with a knife. I stopped moving and they rotated a few times. When they were done, about and hour later, they tied to me to fence.They would grab me from behind, touch all over me, cum on me, and then forced me to masturbate. They stuck their fingers up my vagina, put their dicks in my mouth. They made me masturbate on the floor, and then would smack me with their dicks wherever they felt like it.It was torturous. I was in so much pain. They ran Away. The police were searching everywhere, and then one found me on the floor behind a trashcan in an alley. They took me to a hospital, and it gave me so much emotional trauma.Right now, a year later, I am crying in my room, too scared to go anywhere, ripping at my thighs and stomach with a blade. Burning with lighters. I never told anyone else. The only people that know is my grandma, uncle, mom, and dad. I'm too scared to tell anyone.
I want revenge on people who hurt me in the past. When I see them happy it makes me sad and annoyed. Will taking revenge make me feel better?
“Killed my Personality”, “Murdered my Joy of Life..”I have been where you are, no I am where you are. Currently in my social life it's shit. I'm trying my best but ultimately the people trying to hurt me are starting to get into my head. I'm not happy anymore, my old personality is gone and I don't look forward to anything. My weekends I just sit and I don't want to leave my house because I have lost my will to try. I understand your pain. I wanted to hurt them too. You know, get revenge and all. In the end I am only hurting myself because I am just forcing myself back into those horrible moments where they bullied me and im not letting myself move on. You need to move on. Ignore they exist all together, try your best at getting a will to live again. That's what I'm trying to do..It's difficult. I'm not even there yet myself but we can try together? Those horrible people who hurt you and hurt me. They are unhappy in their personal life, they take out their pain on somebody else in hopes of taking our joy and filling themselves with it. It doesn't work, of course. But like an addict they try again and again, they keep hurting because it just might heal their pain. We have to forgive these people, they are broken. Find a place in your heart to forgive what they did, what they are doing and look after yourself. Look after your health, wellbeing and happiness. Once you love yourself again, you will grow to ignore them, and to not be hurt by their attempts anymore. Be happy, I wish you luckLove yourself first, then forgive
